If you don't know,ask the Iranians how they hacked and landed a U.S. sentinel drone intact. Just because the Armenians lack the capacity does not mean it is not possible. It's like bokoharam saying it's impossible to defeat an alpha jet.
don't mind them, why did the Turkish drone all of a sudden disappeared from the Syrian and Libyan airspace.
Russia has the capacity to deal with those menace but Armenia ain't loyal so they gotta pay with blood.

I pray Armenia find a reliable big brother like the U.S is doing in Israel, taiwan and rest.
Russia is no reliable one. Forget what they did in Syria, it was only for their economic survival to keep asad in power so as to secure their supply of gas to Europe and to deter Saudis from building a gas pipe through syria to Europe.

I really feel for them because of the genocide that almost wipe them out in the past orchestrated by the same ottoman Turkey while Russia still yet did nothing then.
i think Russia is just punishing Armenia for nor being loyalty

Both sides are suffering heavy losses.

Armenia is threatening to use the Iskander ballistic missile if Turkey intervenes with F-16s.
wonder why the Armenian air force is waiting to deploy it Su-30sm?

With the videos coming out, Azerbaijan is currently wrecking Armenian positions, tanks and air defences using Turkish made Bayraktar drones. The drone has already proven itself in Libya, Iraq and Syria. NAF should really consider this for the proposed expanded drone fleet. Will be a serious force multiplier.
going for the Turkish drone or any other drone for offensive capability would be a gross mistake.the buks and for sam systems in libya and Syria dealt with those drones,coupled with the Mig 29.

Turkey's dream of reviving the Ottoman empire would be erdogen greatest undoing.
I believe if not that Russia is pushing to sale the Su35 and more s400 to Turkey,the Grizzly bear would have given turkey a bloody nose.

Sebastine1994:
Please schools should stop celebrating birthdays in school, please, biko. I use God beg you.

I sent my child to school to learn and not to celebrate birthdays, I came back from work one day and saw this play station 4 in a carton, I asked them who own. they said my daughter classmates celebrated her birthday and shared these gift to them.

I quickly ask them to reparkage the gift and take it back to the school, before I return from work the next day.

MY REASON IS THIS: all fingers are not equal, when it is my daughter's birthday they would be expecting a gift of equal amount.

The parent may be rich and I am not, they give my child what I can't afford for her which is a recipe for greed. she should be contented with what I can afford,

These her young mind should be moulded early to adapt to reality.

These private schools are encouraging these evil act, it may affect the child tommorow.

please push to front page to expose the dangers of school birthday.
poverty is really a deadly illness.

BREAKING NEWS!

Wanted Militia Leader Gana Killed, Says Military

Earlier today Gana was at Katsina Ala LGA with Tor Sankera other prominent sons and daughters of the Benue State, where he surrendered before their movement to Makurdi and was intercepted by the military in Gboko LGA

The Commander of the Four Special Forces command, Doma local government area, Brigadier General Maude Ali Gadzama on Tuesday confirmed to Channels Television via telephone the killing of Terwase Akwaza, alias Gana.

Gadzama revealed Gana was killed this evening in a firefight with military personnel.

However, the Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, said soldiers snatched Gana from a government convoy of repentant militants in Gboko.

Earlier on Tuesday, Gana, along with 172 militia boys, had reportedly surrendered amid traditional rulers, priests, and local government officials in Katsina-Ala local government in Benue.

They were on their way to Makurdi when they were intercepted by military officials, Ortom said.

In 2015, Gana was offered an amnesty but returned to his alleged criminal activities.

In 2017, the Nigerian police declared Gana wanted after he was alleged to have killed “several innocent persons”.

The Benue State Government, at the time, placed a N10 million naira bounty on him.

In an exclusive interview with Channels Television in 2016, Gana had denied any involvement in the killing of Mr. Denen Igbana, a security aide to Governor Samuel Ortom.

Travel / Re: Luxury Buses Banned In Kano State As Traders Lament by giles14(m): 5:54pm On Aug 28, 2020
blackgold90:
Why would the Op use an accident luxury bus picture in an article that never talked about accident.

The luxury bus owner should relocate to whatever location approved by government. However their current location is more convince for both passages and motorists.
it's not easy to just move, moving them out of sabon gari is like moving all international flights from Lagos to Kaduna.
1.passengers -95% of luxury bus passengers are non northerners (Igbo's,Yoruba's mostly people from the south.)
2.security- most non northerners live in and around sabon gari for security reasons and are not comfortable venturing far into kano due to security volatility.

the luxury bus companies are not stubborn everyone is just scared.

Umahi infact should be commended for understanding the knitty gritty of the the IGP action of transferring Eboyi command to Anambra. Anambra is a Money bag state , Eboyi Indigines cannot survive it. Their people may not get justice because already Nigeria is a colosal state where only Money dictates the just and Anambra is an example. He better remains with Imo and Abia where there are there kits and kins who can atleast reason with them together.
Ebonyi is a Young and Upcomming state we should allow them grow at their own pace.

Apparently a fire started at an explosive depot where they and confiscated illegal explosives from a ship months before which caused the massive explosion
according to RT that NH4NO3 explosion was confiscated from a ship almost 5yrs ago.

No idea
Maybe got delivered by ship or was waiting to be loaded on to a ship .

Strong possibility of lapses in storage procedure , different explosives have different regulations on how to store them so that sympathetic detonation chain is minimised and importantly accidental detonation due to fire, spark etc.

If news of 2750 tons of explosive is true, I must say the people there are very lucky , it could have been far worse. The explosion was reduced in scope, it would have been double in scale if the detonation of the explosives was synchronised.
the initial fire reduced/burnt up a lot of oxygen so reducing the strength of the second blast.

their were deem lucky.

Did you follow my posts at all or you were itching to just type. Where did you see me comparing F16s and JF17s? E go good if you de follow things.

I specifically am on his argument about the quality of the jets based on his (1) BAIC/Mercedes (2) Number of users argument.

To your post. Who's considering Air Superiority? Nairaland Air Force? Where did you see arms race in any of the discourse?

The rationale for getting the JFs have been stated by the [real] NAF and over flogged by us on this thread so I don't know what new thing you're saying. The Service needs a multirole fighter. Fangirls are the ones onanating about fighting one Egypt or Chad or whatever

I don't get why you're defending the jf 17 like this. To a large extent, he is right. You can only compare both in performance. But in weapon systems, the f16 is miles ahead. Jf17 does not even have an aesa radar. But I like the Jf17 still because it is okay. Nigeria does not need to pursue a useless arms race for now. If we keep growing economically, if Egypt like, let them have 1000 f16s, a little sanction will settle any matter, nowadays, nobody can bomb another freely without adequate backup. If am to advise the military, I'll tell them to forget about air superiority and missiles and focus on more attack planes, light attack helicopters and the likes. For example sikorsky militarizes the blackhawk with rockets and precision guns for a cost, you can buy it complet or get an old one and they'll militarize it. A used blackhawk is about 4 million dollars. All these things are helpful to checkmate the spread of terrorism in the North East.
even F-5 the USA would not sale talk less of F-16A.

my word for you is to wake from that Hollywood induced fantasy.
