NIGERIAN AIR FORCE MI-35M HELICOPTER DESTROYS BOKO HARAM TERRORISTS VEHICLES IN LAKE CHAD REGION

The Air Task Force (ATF) of Operation LAFIYA DOLE, in the night of 13 April 2018, successfully destroyed some Boko Haram Terrorists (BHT) vehicles at a location, about 12km East of AREGE, in the Lake Chad Region. Earlier on, a Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft had discovered BHT activities, with some vehicles mounted with guns, moving within the location. Accordingly, the ATF detailed NAF Mi-35M Helicopter gunships to conduct Air Interdiction strikes to take out the targets. Overhead the location, the attack platform acquired, interdicted and neutralised the targets with rockets and cannons. The subsequent Battle Damage Assessment (BDA) revealed that at the end of the attack, a BHT gun truck, with its entire occupants, was completely destroyed and engulfed in fire. Another BHT vehicle was damaged and immobilised as a result of the attack while several BHTs were killed in the process. The NAF continues to provide adequate air support, through the ATF of Operation LAFIYA DOLE, by conducting a range of air operations to create the necessary environment for ground operations to continue apace.

These MRAPS should have been sent back for re-fixing, they shouldn't be laying around like these.

I have images like these also, it's saddens my heart seeing them like these.

Can't find a companies name with;"techno flight helicopters". ....

jakeporeshenko:
No it can’t be, the 1Bili was approved, apparently this wasn’t.

“Toby Okechukwu brought up the matter while contributing to a motion calling on the federal government to ensure the safe rescue of the Chibok girls and the remaining Dapchi girl.
He said the alleged withdrawal of the amount and the procurement of the military hardware was illegal.
He said the amount was equivalent to N165bn, and that it did not include the $1bn reportedly approved by President Muhammadu Buhari for military expenditure”

I pray all these money are judiciously spent.

The Senate yesterday summoned the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele; the Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun; and the Minister of Defence, Mansur Dan-Ali to explain the alleged withdrawal of $462 million from the Federation Account for the purchase of two American helicopters without Senate approval.

Anyanwu said the money was paid to an American firm named Helicopter Techno Flight Helicopters

His these money part of the $1billion just released or seperate money again...

Nigerian Air Force acquires 6 new helicopters for first time in 18 years


http://sunnewsonline.com/nigerian-air-force-new-helicopters-18-years/


Molly Kilete, Abuja

The Chief of Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadiq Abubakr, says that the Nigerian Air Force (NAF), has acquired siyx brand new helicopters to add to its fleet for the first time in 18 years.

Abubakar said that 73 pilots currently undergoing flight training in different parts of the world are expected to graduate before the end of the year.

He noted the NAFs contribution in boosting counterinsurgency operations in the northeast and other internal security measures across the country.

The Air Marshal made this known in an interview with newsmen shortly after winging 12 new pilots, along with two of their Liberian counterparts, who have just concluded training in Kaduna, Kaduna State and Ilorin, Kwara State.

He explained that following the purchase of the helicopters, the NAF has embarked on training more of its personnel as pilots in various countries, including the United States of America, Morocco and Jordan, adding that before the end of the year, pilot trainees among, which is the first Nigerian Air Force female pilot, would graduate from the schools.

According to him, “In acquiring the number of platforms in the Air Force, we have to train the pilots.

“This is the first time in about 18 years that we are acquiring 6 brand new helicopters for the Air Force.

“This is quite significant in the sense that we are building capacity and making sure that we have the right number of qualified staff that will man these helicopters that have been acquired.

“Human capacity is the most important .You can have all the aircraft but if you don’t have people who are trained to fly the aircraft, you will still not get anything,” he explained.

“Now that the government is acquiring more platforms for us, and we already have pilots. This is the second time that we are winging pilots this year and this shows that we are thinking ahead of what the government is providing for us, and I think it is really impacting positively.”

Another good news....

the U.S just needs to understand that its once global dominance is over. it should learn to accommodate other powers like Russia and China in this new world.


in Syria recent reports indicate that a flotilla of Russian advanced warships have pulled out of Syria's ports to position in case of any US missile strike.

they left a submarine behind possibly as a second strike option.

In Asia, the PLAN second aircraft carrier is on stream. every single day that passes by the Chinese military capability grow in leaps and bounds.

The U.S should just focus on its own corner of the continent.

True talk mate .....

It's very difficult for them, struggling with two emerging allied super powers. They should swallow there pride.
