Good Evening from Sambisa picture taken by me a Patriot

cutievik:
Where's JOSCOFELIX

Abeg update us.

yoged:
if its were not for NA. Is it for boko haram or ESN or Yoruba Nation agitators or bandits. ?

cutievik:
I hope we go somewhere else and the money isn't pocketed..

Whyem15:
What is the unit cost of the plane?
The engine?
The other systems too, unless there are other components to the deal, it won't add up.
And the most important thing is that is that the next thing for the army? $800 million on 12 helos+ spares? Having in mind the poor maintenance culture of the army.

Nemesis4you:
6 Apache for 930 million dollars

I hope you dont faint now lol

cutievik:
A human being who wants the attrition numbers reduce quickly! It's rare the NAF would be going for American helos, only the NA fits that category right now.

[/b]We also know there's been a big bone of contention between the NA and the NAF tussle for superiority over the battle field.[b] My point is, we cannot put the cart before the horse, Let the Army provide it's priority equipments first before diving head first into aspects.

Invest in communication gears, MRAPs,. armoured divisions, special units and other basics.

Whyem15:
What's even the unit cost of the AH-1 cobra that the deal is worth over $800 million, please let's discuss it so we can find out the numerous stuffs wrong with this deal....
A unit of the APKWS is $22,000
The unit cost of the Hydra 70 rockets that goes with the APKWS is $2800

If they are buying 2000 APKWS and 10000 Hydra 70 rockets, that's just $100,000000

Where is the remaining $700,000000 going to?

cutievik:
Nigeria Army is the most backwards goåts in our list of stupid units.. They have no value for the lives of their men..Is this buy necessary at this point?

Whyem15:
[/b]Thank God the deal was blocked. Why would the army be spending $800 million on helicopters when they have huge defect of tanks, artilleries, and other ground systems[b] Common protected troops carrying vehicles they don't have they are now going to buy 12 outdated AH-1 helicopters. I guess it's the APKWS that is carrying the bulk of the cost but it is still misplaced priority. The implication of this is that the army is basically trying to use almost all the cash they are getting from the supplementary budget to get the helicopters.
AH-1 is old for God's sake. They don't even know when they would be getting another allocation of this magnitude and they want to waste the opportunity to get hundreds of IFVs, tanks, artilleries and MRAPs. Fvcking morons

GeneralFarouq:
[/b]Oh I get where you are coming from.,
Then we can go for the MI-28NE which is more similar to the Cobra than the MI 35...[b]
Except of course we don't want to source from one nation only... This American attitude is bad for the war
With the MI-28NE, NAF has experience with Russian helis and can easily pilot andmaintain them or help whoever is acquiring it in doing any of these things

tutudesz:
Serioiously blocking hardware sales at this critical time with different terrorist groups pooping up and down in Africa

GeneralFarouq:
Good find
Why should we switch from MI series to Cobras....
Plus all the double standards that accompany US weapons...

gboye1999:
It appears this was in the works?
Cobra dem. same old deal?

tutudesz:
The N1 Million fine is very funny O! What If there is no money to pay the fine, what will now happen

tutudesz:
12 years with N1 Million fine

joshingjosh:
Please when was the picture taken??

cutievik:
when my jet got shot with the explosives and my flight controls were destroyed Wetin Bandits use?

NAF platforms overhead also helped me to deter them a lot by making some of them to pin down while I kept running,
all the decisions worked together to save my life.

Eg, removing my phone from my lap and putting it in my G -suit before pulling the ejection handle (I had to use the compass of the phone and AirNav Pro application to navigate), and making the decision to turn hard 90 degrees immediately the bandits lost sight of me on a sandy cliff where they couldn’t trace my footpath again (the CAS told me they got information that in turn, the bandits kept going straight in the direction I was initially going and they destroyed several villages and camps, killing plenty people, thinking those people harbored me). So much more… The village I eventually entered at night, I told God that the first person I see and call should favour me and that happened, he gave me clothes, pain-relieving drugs, food and water and even malt, and he organized for a bike to carry me to DanSadau

[/b]NAF did little, they haven't learnt how to safely locate and extract pilots, imagine using his own phone?! [b]

I pity the people in the location he mentioned, the NA won't save them now and the poor Emir...
