@Henry don't waste your time replying people like these..
They just want to talk - Rome was not built in a day, I don't see much difference with the NA ATV and western/European prototypes. Talking from experience, you don't need aesthetics when it comes to functionality of military hardwares to fight.
Dude these ATV have under gone trials and I can badly tell you that the suspension systems can survive the north east terrain.
Your argument are not substantial talk less of being constructive.

Again, I'm not commenting on the design. Nigeria can design whatever it wants.
Yes Rome was not built in a day, but it did not call itself a high quality city on day one.

I'll add this pic for the last time. Do you see the bumps and non uniformity I have circled?
That would not pass as a good joint/weld in any arms manufacturing company anywhere in the world.
It is a fail. Mr or Ms artisan would be instructed to do it again. Try find pictures of military or civilian vehicles
where you've ever seen anything like that....you won't be able to.

It leads to the scary possibility that this vehicle was assembled without a jig.
I'm guessing the ARA and this vehicle are made by 2 separate companies. I hope you've understood my point.

Some random lunatic decides to launch a tirade against the Nigerian army Tactical Patrol Vehicle, as he puts it, it's a random piece of junk.

Yet, the coward couldn't stay on to defend his comment. He immediately deletes his profile after his comment.

Fools like @Stephandeswardt decide to shower him with support, at least he wasn't cowardly to delete his profile. Some other fools decided to hide behind likes to show support for the coward.


What is the Nigerian Army Tactical Patrol Vehicle. This vehicle is primarily a High Mobility Vehicle designed for Patrols. A number of countries around the world use High Mobility Vehicles, the most popular been the Humvee.

They are designed to overcome obstacles, rough terrains and are in many cases referred to as All Terrain Vehicles.

The Lunatic claimed our TPV is a badly done weld job. A junk. He circled a number of areas before fleeing like a buffoon.

So here are some examples from around the world with similar designs.

The Tactical Patrol Vehicle follows a similar design principle.

See the vehicle in motion in this video.

The TPV might not be aesthetically pleasing at this point but if it does what it is designed to do, why bother about beauty?

Kind Sir.

I decided to activate an account again to reply to you. So please put your emotions away and read the facts I'm about to give you.

Firstly I never commented on the actual design. Any country is free to design whatever they want. You can design a tactical tri-cycle if you
want to, that's your business. Hence the bulk of your reply and pics you posted are useless.

The areas highlighted in red circles are such bad weld jobs that the actual metal has been damaged. The artisan welded over the same spot
numerous times. Anyone who has worked with welding can tell you that. Do you agree or disagree with this point?Yes or No? Please don't
go and quickly google pictures of welding to try become and expert in 5 minutes, it won't work.

Now....in any half decent manufacturing company, the supervisor would not allow that joint to pass. It is a fail. That connection needs to be
cut out and re-welded. I won't even talk about the design of the suspension. Who knows what other rush jobs are hidden in this vehicle.
Hence it does not qualify as high quality Nigerian engineering. Or maybe it does? If you insist.
