jakeporeshenko:
now that the US is threatening to cancel the sale of f-35's to Turkey or provide is with substandard aircrafts running outdated software, will the key NATO member look east?
can Turkey bail Russia out with much needed funds to fully develop the SU-57

Report: Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau critically ill

A convoy carrying a French diplomat Jean-Baptiste Lemoyne brought to a halt as it came under heavy gun fire today in the Anglophone Southern Cameroons town of Buea.

With the addition of the S-300VM Egypt operates one of the most comprehensive ground based air defence forces in the world.

With plenty of capability at Division, Brigade, and even Battalion level. Anywhere an Egyptian ground force goes nasty missiles go with.

Nothing is ever really retired or pushed out of service. Soviet Air Defence systems are continously upgraded with new radar and command stations.

Both old and new are present in the Egyptian Air Defence.

The Egyptian Air Defence's air mobile and droppable Man Portable Air Defence System (MANPADS) wielding units.

These units are specifically outfited to carry out air ambush against En helicopters and low flying aircraft. Rarely talked about.

You will notice the Egyptian Air Defence does not use NATO system to denote high explosive (yellow band colour) or other types of missiles.

Round colours are often random and some are chromed/shiny. The latter most likely being drill/display missiles.

"WELL EQUIPPED MILITARY IMPERATIVE FOR STABILIZATION OF LAKE CHAD BASIN"
- Major General Lucky Irabor

The Force Commander Multinational Joint Task Force, Major General Lucky Irabor has said that a well equipped military is imperative for consolidation of the successes already made and stabilization of the Lake Chad Basin. Major General Irabor made the observation at the on - going Technical Workshop on Regional Stabilization Strategy in N'Djamena, Chad.

Addressing a Committee of Experts drawn from United Nations Agencies, the African Union, the Lake Chad Basin Commission, International Non Governmental Organizations, among other bodies, Major General Irabor argued that for a force with a mandate such as that which the MNJTF has, critical requirements like Logistic support and necessary force multipliers, Amphibious capability, Capability for enhanced intelligence, border security and coordination with national forces, as well as capability for effective and measurable communication and influence operations are very essential. Speaking further, Major General Irabor noted that ;

"The entire stabilization strategy is premised on a secured environment on a sustainable basis. To this end, the MNJTF should be available in the necessary shape and form to provide the required security cover for every stage and pillar of the stabilization programme".

Speaking earlier, the Head of Mission and Executive Secretary Lake Chad Commission, Ambassador Mamman Nuhu outlined the purpose of the workshop and noted that the event is further to the previous one held in Niamey, Niger Republic, a fourth night earlier.

The 2 day workshop will also focus on other pillars such as; Governance, Gender, Socio-economic revitalization, Education, Humanitarian and Preventing violent extremism.

Dignitaries at the workshop include the Special Representative of the Chairperson of the African Union Commission, Ambassador Zaina Nyiramatama, the Head United Nations System in Chad, Stephen Tull, among others.

Please, dessiminate this information to the general public.

Seriously.

please why is the US always trying its best to undermine Russia if their are not a threat?

SternProphet:
Yes the Saudis have actually turned the tide in Yemen. This is just two week old news. I didn't want the Saudis to win in Yemen but it appears by the grace of Sudanese, Chadian and Moroccoan troops they will. Sanctions will start hitting Iran badly this month and they are over extended in Syria and Lebanon. Again I don't want Iran to be too weak in that region but it just might happen.

When the Russian came to Syria they changed the tide of the war and it was the Russian airforce that paved the way.

The Saudi airforce as been pounding the Yemenis and nothing as changed instead they are kicking the Saudi and Saudi backed coalition force ass

SternProphet:
I am actually looking for a YouTube Russian aircraft cockpit video. Their own material released at the start of their Syria campaign.

Pls stop this stuff about Russian air campaign turned the tide. It is amateurish.
Any air campaign turns tides to the full extent that air campaigns can. It does not matter what planes you use. Saudis are turning the tide in Yemen with F16s piloted by inexperienced pilots. It was ground action that won the war.

Alot of them on YouTube dude.

You are the jerk of the the century .......

Really Saudis are really turning the tide in Yemen, I rest my case. There is no need arguing with you

SternProphet:
One of the dangers of the social media age is mental timidity and lack of critical thinking. The Russians are actually more sophisticated in propaganda (as seen in the US elections) than designing and fielding modern combat jets.
Technology is leaving them and that is why they kept to what they knew best (theoretical aerodynamics) recycling the same SU27 airframe with different engine sizes instead of trying to keep up with advances in stealth and netcentric warfare. I am not even sure they have as much talent in key areas as ordinary Ukraine as we speak

Jeeuzzzzz...........

Dude right here is funny and I can't but just burst into laughter
