I'm saying that I hope the front is reinforced for ramming. But can't be sure of that

Definitely it should be

GabrielYulaw:
It is the front part of the vehicle that concerns me, not the name. Like it looks to have been reinforced for ramming but I am unsure about that.

Isn't that a good concept for armoured vehicles to have strong/protected front ?

Seriously, Sniper MRAP?? We need to work on our weapons naming skills in Nigeria. That's a weird name to give these beautiful armoured vehicles.

Cited this from the Minister of aviation Twitter handle page.

[/b]This night I received one out nine Primary Radar equipment to be procured. This procurement will ensure both willing & unwilling aircraft in our airspace are promptly detected. Safety, security and efficiency has been the focus of Buhari’s aviation since 2015[b]


Ministry of Aviation will as taken take delivery of 2x RPA-200MC mobile 3D primary radars developed by Argentine technology company INVAP, the contract was awarded by UAE based Jampur Group in 202, which includes the training of the personnel who will operate them.

Honestly the Federal Government and MOD should patronize proforce, we can do better. I live the products coming out from the Cooperation. By now we should stop importing MRAPs and let proforce and DICON handle that aspects.

Hey, looks like MoD is slowly digitizing our standard issue camo. Not bad at all.

I think they actually ran-out of the actual materials sticks, they went for something close ??

The school is owned by Arthur Eze via TRIAX co LTD.
However they're have an MOU with NAF for instructors

I don't think so?

Who can explain why the NAF does not use autogyros. They are far cheaper than helicopters to run, can use automotive fuel and can easily be manufactured here.

autogyros and helicopters are two different platforms entirely.
If you're training pilots for rotary wing platforms then you must use at least an helicopter to start with. Do you know helicopters are more difficult platforms to fly

When did this happen bro?
