Nigerian Air force seems incapable of precision air strikes.
It has become a recurring problem.
Whenever you hear or see Nigerian fighter jets in the sky, just run away, please.

When the armed forces recruitment, position and promotion is based on religion and tribe rather than merit, such embarrassing disasters becomes inevitable.

They need more training on calling air strike and marking strike targets. They also need more precise fighter jets and adequate pilot training

Rest In Peace gallant soldiers fighting for their nation

Clearly an error, it happens even with American military. God continuously strengthen our military and lead them right. The job they do is not easy, they need the support of every Nigerian.

shut up, you liar! even though it happens in USA, it's a rare mistake, but NAF loves killing the NA for fun.

When you have bunch of unintelligent soldiers who thinks military service is about bully. Most of these guys cannot give accurate coordinates or interpret one correctly. Such a shame

So, Military Aircraft does not have communication with Ground control troops in battle field....

2023 Election should come quick ....so that Obi can become President and make our Military what it used to be . The Military that went to Liberia Ecomog to smoke out rebels and stop war in another country, ....not the one that is dropping bombs on itself and cannot identify own ground troops.


Obi isn't going to change this automatically

This things do not play out exactly how you think...

Even with communication alot of things can go wrong...
Also.. we do not have sophisticated aircrafts..if at all there will be communication..it isn't btw the pilot and the ground forces... Have you asked if the army has such large equipment that can grant direct communication to an airborne jet..or you think it is walkie talkies?

These are the questions you should ask..most times. The communication will be between the fighter plane , An ISR plane then to the air force base..

The quality of information passed to the air force base is what they pass to the pilot..

It is perfect..we mostly operate 3rd gen. Planes.. this shouldn't come as a surprise ..

Obi isn't going to change shit except he plans buying squadrons of 4.5 or 4th gen planes..
Let see where he will see the money...


RIP to the dead.

The military equally record a lot of successes..when they are posted here we say pics or I don't believe it ...or look for something to wash their efforts...
But now every one is countering them..
Re: Airstrikes Mistakenly Kill 11 Soldiers, 7 Zamfara Villagers, Injure 70 by grandstar(m): 9:52pm On Dec 19, 2022
Fighter jets are simply too powerful and should only be exercised with great caution. The collateral damage is therefore unsurprising.

Oh Nigerians! When will this come to an end? We might just wake up one day to see that Afghanistan has happened in Nigeria. With these non-state actors defiling places like NDA and airports, their chances of overrunning Aso Rock is getting above 90%.

God forbid! We will certainly overcome. The problems with these people in the northeast and other parts of the north is that, there are insiders among the inhabitants that are symphatising with the insurgents. As long as this continue the battle would never be won.

To all the armchair generals who rushed over to this topic ready for another bout of criticism over the military tactics at play in Nigeria's war on terror, may I quickly interject that war is inherently chaotic and characterized by unexpected turns of events that necessitate instant changes in air strike coordinates whose details may not be conveyed to friendly forces quickly enough to prevent collateral damage from being inflicted on friendly forces already engaged in furious exchanges of fire with the enemy.

In virtually every single armed conflict that entails the use of air power, there have been tragic incidents of "friendly fire" air strikes that pulverize troops from the wrong side before those ground forces have the opportunity to alert the chain of command about the ordnance targeting error. From the Viet Nam war to both Gulf Wars, to the war in Afghanistan, friendly fire air strikes have been a recurrent problem that still remains unsolved despite advances in battlefield communication technology.

It is therefore no surprise to learn about a friendly fire incident being recorded during Nigeria's ongoing war against Islamic terror. War is inherently chaotic and mastering that turmoil can prove to be an insurmountable task for even the most advanced military forces this planet has to offer.
