Xbee007: Was there any kind of announcement of the induction? I couldn't find any post online where Lai Muhammad made any announcement to that effect. The info I got from an Airforce squadron leader was the induction will be on the 4th and it might be a low-key one. Anyway I can't wait till these babies start dropping on BHT.

Xbee007: Are you guys sure Nigerian Air Force is inducting the Super Tucano today? No announcement whatsoever. The only announcement was a post supposedly made by Lai Muhammad. So far, nothing. Am thinking it would be a quiet induction, propably because of the UAVs. So it will be more classified induction. |

Xbee007: [/b]I also think those period Samuel mentioned were actually the darkest period for Nigerian soldiers. The 2000 dead soldiers claim is way too low[b]
2018 to 2019 is never the darkest or one of the darkest moments for the Nigerian soldiers, 2014 to 2016 was the worst and period I would never forget, they gave us hell and was the time we recorded highest casualties of soldiers who where K.I.A.
[/b]2010 to 2016 were the darkest period for the residents of Borno and its environs because of the rate of bomb blast incidents. It was also the period when Shekau reigned supreme[b] I quite agree with you on this but to be more specific the bombing was more intense between 2012 to 2016. |

SamuelAnyawu: I used “one of the” darkest period in NE
Baga, Zari, Metele, Kareto, Kukawa main town,
I have forgotten some areas. I don’t think you were in the Lake Chad during this era. It was the death toll led to Super camp immediately.
There is a reason Bulama Bukarti mentioned that era It's far from been one of the darkest moments mate. Where you in Borno 2010 to 2016 ? If you where in Borno during this period then you shouldn't be saying it's "one of the darkest moments" in the North East. |

SamuelAnyawu: That’s if the number ain’t under reported. The Late 2018 to early 2019 remains one of the darkest era in the Nigeria Army NE war How can you say 2018 to 2019 is the darkest era ! I can confidently say that the numbers are not true and they are infliated, so you're saying over 1000 soldier died yearly between 2018 and 2019. How do they came across the figures, what's the average death in a BHT ambush or attack on F.O.B, how many successful terrorist attacks that resulted in the death of soldiers ? The really dark days or era where between 2014 to 2016. BH really messed the military up. |

kabe1: I like your optimism, but I don't see Turkey as a major defence player.
They don't have the tech unlike the Chinese to go it alone, [/b]and more importantly the US would not allow Turkey grow to a point where they become a threat to US own exports[b] I disagree with the bolded, why would the US not allow them to grow to such height. I don't believe in all these super powers, if China can do it then any country can also do it. Who believe that after the breakup of the Soviet Union, Russia would still be a powerful nation. |

Covert1: Good platform but too expensive, too few in number and no sustainable production line to aid maintenance. No the Mi-35M is way better.
The Nigerian Army needs something more in the mould of the AH-1Z. And they need it fast. That's the missing link in their COIN operations Thanks mate ! |

Covert1: You have to believe it this Rooivalk attack helicopter is made in Africa, in South Africa. It actually meets the test just beset by South Africa's lack of political weight and costs. Why can't the NA even go for this attack helicopter platform  His it a good platform, guys what's your view on this  |

RiceProducers: You don't know Nigeria was sending plane load of arms and money to Angola?. C-130s were shuttling quite frequently. Nigeria's leaders then were young officers fresh from a civil war with a pan Africanist political bent.
[/b]After Cuba, Nigeria was the hero of the liberation struggle[b] I don't know ? From the little research I just did now, there are no records that shows that the Nigerian military was involved in the Angola war. Are you sure about the bolded part of your statement  |

SamuelAnyawu: Sincerely many have gone unaccounted for on this route. I remember when they took over 8 University of Maiduguri students till date no news about them.
[/b]The Gridlines have remain damaged and no electricity for five months now. Once you try to fix one, they’ll blow another. Well we are now used to blackout[b] This is very bad. Honestly the military hirachy should create a special unit that would be responsible for securing those power line grids and dangerous route in the N.E. Not just creating them they should be well equipped to respond to any situation, attacks or distress calls. Intact they should have there dedicate air unit like the Cameroonian B.I.R. Another problem we have in this country is doing stuffs the old way, there is nothing wrong if we have dedicated UAV patroling this grid lines. How can a whole city be cut off of power for months  |
