Few months to Obama's reelection, Osama Bin Laden was reported to have been killed, no body was provided.
Few months to the next American election, we are hearing reports of US special forces killing Al Baghdadi ,they said he blew himself up so no body can be provided.
This is the game they are playing.

Odunayaw:
How'd I be able to do that based on pictures?

But I'd complain on what I perceive; The turning radius.
It seems they've reduced the height of the vehicle.

Please no one should get me wrong. I have no problem with the vehicle! Why should I be unpleased after yelling for 3 years that we should be producing these classes of vehicles ourselves. My problem is with the "manufacturer".
I fear they'd not think commercial, which may hamper the future of the Ezugwu.

Proforce can always push for sales outside Nigeria to stay afloat, can NAVMC do same. Or will they sink once the NA doesn't procure?

Well said bro..... I think I get your point

Toju200:
This was how ARA started there would possibly be an upgrade..RWS should be the primary Weaponry of this vehicle.I noticed they added window blocks at the side.unlike the first time we saw it..

Nice observation;" hope to see more improvement and upgrade.
And a camera at the back door also

Please can someone teach me how to create a new thread? I want to create a new topic, post the pictures so that it can be moved to the front page.

Thank you in advance.

Please can someone help me, how can I create a new thread?

The Ezugwu might not be the best looking vehicle, but let us be optimistic.

We have proforce APC and this APC to be proud of.

This variant below has add-on armour.

Nice pics kabe1

Odunayaw:
I was here when y'all said the same in 2014.

Bureaucracy and a host of other factors will choke this venture and am not being pessimistic

Seriously........
That should be on Henry or siriusblack thread, I was never part of those who said or supported igirigI last long. The igirigi has no production line/plant like what we have now- NAVMC. The few igirigi that was preduced where built in the workshop of NA engineers unlike the NAVMC; the venture might look small now but they are impressive. What they need do is to seek for external engineers to help out improve on the design .

Odunayaw:
This venture will fail like Igirigi

You will be damned surprised it wouldn't

SuperSixSeven:
this vehicle needs a proper critical review by external engineers to succeed, this can only be a first prototype.

Definitely- I hope our top brass are thinking in that direction.

CAS HOLDS THIRD QUARTER INTERACTIVE MEETING WITH AWOs, RSMs, CHARGES THEM ON DISCIPLINE, INNOVATIVENESS

As part of efforts to further enhance professionalism and efficient service delivery through sustained discipline and regimentation, the Nigerian Air Force (NAF), today, 23 October 2019, held its Third Quarter Interactive Meeting of the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS) with Air Warrant Officers (AWOs) and Regimental Sergeant Majors (RSMs) of all NAF Units and tri-Service Formations and Institutions. The quarterly retreat, which held at the Headquarters NAF Abuja, provides a forum for interactions aimed at consolidating on the existing smooth working relations between the NAF leadership and all ranks within the Service for enhanced operational effectiveness and efficiency.

In his remarks during the meeting, the CAS, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, reminded the AWOs and RSMs, who are the link between the Officers’ Cadre and the Other Ranks, to remain loyal and impartial in the discharge of their responsibilities. He enjoined them to always give necessary feedback to their Commanders with a view to enhancing policy implementation as well as consolidating on the advancement of the Service. He also laid emphasis on the expected roles of the AWOs and RSMs in promoting regimentation and discipline, urging them to continue to give their best to ensure that the NAF remains the pride of all Nigerians.

The CAS also encouraged the AWOs and RSMs to be innovative in the area of Research and Development (R&D), noting that the NAF had intensified efforts to produce locally-made spares and other related equipment in a bid to address the challenges associated with spares procurement from other countries. While speaking on personnel welfare, Air Marshal Abubakar added that the NAF would not relent in ensuring that its personnel were properly accommodated and provided with the requisite equipment to do their jobs effectively. He reiterated that the Interactive Session was part of the NAF Leadership’s deliberate bottom-up approach towards facilitating continuous feedback from personnel of the Service, to ensure that the Leadership consistently takes the best decisions.

During the interactive session, the AWOs and RSMs took turns to brief the CAS on activities in their various Areas of Responsibility. The briefs mostly focused on suggestions to improve operational effectiveness and efficiency as well as matters pertaining to general welfare. The AWOs and RSMs also commended the CAS for creating the enabling environment for women to thrive in the Service as evidenced by the recent winging of the first female fighter pilot and helicopter pilot in the NAF, promotion of the first woman to the enviable rank of AWO as well as the reversion of the Air Force Girls’ Comprehensive School (AFGCS) in Jos back to Air Force Girls’ Military School (AFGMS). A lecture on “NAF Policy on Civil Military Relations” had earlier been delivered by the Director of Civil Military Relations, Air Commodore David Aluku.

NAF JETS NEUTRALIZE SEVERAL TERRORISTS AT BUKAR MERAM IN BORNO STATE

In continuation of the sustained onslaught against terrorist elements in the Northeast of the Country, the Air Task Force (ATF) of Operation LAFIYA DOLE has neutralized several Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP) fighters at Bukar Meram on the fringes of Lake Chad in the northern part of Borno State. The operation was executed yesterday, 21 October 2019, based on credible intelligence reports that indicated a resumption of the use of the location to provide logistics support to the terrorists, using fishing activities as a cover. Accordingly, the ATF dispatched its attack aircraft to engage designated areas within the settlement.

Before the strikes, over 35 terrorists were observed within the area of interest. The attack aircraft subsequently engaged the location in successive passes recording accurate hits on the target area, leading to the neutralization of several ISWAP fighters as well as the destruction of some of the structures.

The NAF, operating in concert with surface forces, will sustain its efforts to completely destroy all remnants of the terrorists in the Northeast.

FLYING OFFICER OKE - ANOTHER NAF FEMALE FIGHTER PILOT IN THE MAKING

Flying Officer Oluwadamilare Oke is another Nigerian Air Force (NAF) female fighter pilot in the making. Oke, who is one of the 15 Student Pilots undergoing Basic Flying Training at the 403 Flying Training School (403 FTS) Kano, has successfully conducted her first solo flight on the L-39ZA Jet Trainer Aircraft. She is the first female pilot to do so in the history of 403 FTS. This is yet another example of the gender-friendly environment created under the current NAF leadership. We look forward to Oke’s progress and eventual graduation from the Course.
