Any purchase of a JF-17 Block II at this time will be redundant. We are better off waiting for the Block 3.

Lets just have something better than F7

Trump is a dealmaker. He hates all the bureaucracy, in fact he complains that goods are delayed and not supplied on time blaming past professional politicians like Obama & Biden who sacrificed growth for political correctness. He wants to sell sell sell. We can be more ambitious. Trump likes Nigeria.

He mention the free $1.8b cash the Obama government gave the Iranians, and said Nigeria will need such kind of money

President Trump live with President Bubu......let's see if we get more offers.

NAF TAKES DELIVERY OF SECOND BATCH OF MI-35M HELICOPTER GUNSHIPS, INTERNAL SECURITY OPERATIONS RECEIVE A BOOST

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) today, 30 April 2018, took delivery of two Mi-35M helicopter gunships that the Federal Government had since ordered from Russia. The Antonov aircraft, which brought the new Mi-35M helicopters, touched down on the runway at NAF Base Makurdi at exactly 12.20pm today. The Chief of Aircraft Engineering at NAF Headquarters, Air Vice Marshal Abdulganiyu Olabisi, received the new aircraft on behalf of the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar. A combined team of NAF personnel and Russian technicians were also on hand to assist in offloading the partially assembled new helicopters, some parts of which came in crates. In addition, officials of the Nigeria Customs Service and the Nigeria Immigration Service were present to ensure necessary documentation. The newly delivered helicopters, which are capable of night fighting, are all brand new and are the most sophisticated in the Mi-series of helicopter gunships.

The newly received combat helicopters form the second batch of the fleet of Mi-35M helicopters, the procurement of which the current Federal Government Administration initiated in Year 2015. At the inception of the current NAF leadership in 2015, it was realized that modern Mi-helicopter gunships with night-fighting capability needed to be procured towards enhancing the operational capability of the NAF. Consequently, the delivery of the helicopter gunships would go a long way in adding impetus to the current efforts at combatting the security challenges in Benue State and other parts of the North Central Region as well as other forms of criminality facing the country. In addition, with the delivery of the additional Mi-35M helicopters, the on-going counterinsurgency operation in the Northeast has just received a boost.

It would be recalled that the NAF took delivery of the first batch of 2 brand new Mi-35M helicopters in December 2016, following which the helicopters were inducted and had since been contributing significantly to the counterinsurgency and other Internal Security operations in the country. Furthermore, some NAF personnel had undergone training in Russia, as Pilots and technicians on the Mi-35M helicopters, as part of the contract. Sequel to the hitch-free delivery, a team of Russian and NAF technicians will now complete the assembly of the newly received helicopters in Nigeria prior to test flying. Thereafter, the helicopter gunships will be formally inducted into the NAF, as part of the activities to mark the 54th anniversary celebrations of the Service.

See how Dapchi girls were flown to Abuja on a C-130 Hercules, than my head clicked and I remember there was a time NAF acquired a B737-500, does anyone have any idea what happened to that plane

A Nigerian Air force training air plane has reportedly crashed in Kaduna. It was gathered that the plane crashed in Kauran Dawa in Saminaka Local Area of Kaduna state.
The airplane known as Diamond 40, is a one person seater training aircraft which is used for training of personnel at the NAF base.
However, no casualty was involved as the pilot of the airplane came out unhurt.

1.3 million tonnes of steel per year. Low but ok for a start. There is another big one with 7 plants in the delta region too.. If we have the transfer of technology, we should be able to build more to meet the Nigerian demand alone.

They estimated Nigeria’s present steel production at about 300,000 tonnes per annum, while consumption, as shown by recent studies in 2010, is above 20 million tonnes per annum.

Still far to meet demand but a good start is what we just need.

With 1.3mt annually why do you think we should be threat to NATO......China exports 46.8mt, Japan 37.1mt, Ukraine 23.0mt, Russia 17.1mt, south Korea 9.9mt follow by the EUROPEAN UNIOUN which just export 7.9mt, if we even start producing steel we will not even contain our domestic consumption not to talk of export. So how can we be a threat to NATO.

@Scully95 let's say Ajaokuta steels is fully functional, how many metric tonnes of steel do you think it can produce annually.

scully95:
Well, that is not how it works. First is usually military power before you can get a guaranteed growth. You may think this is funny because you dont know how the Germans steel industry gave them power to build tanks and all sorts of weapons which made them even more techonologically advance but they never knew they were also dealing with Russia which is also as at the time almost the same.

Did you read history at all ? How do you build bombs ? Carrier vehicle is made of plastic or paper right ? What do you use in carrier viehicle ? Bullet is what ? Plastic abi ? 50 caliber bullet is made of plastic, paper or ata gungun abi ?

Yes, from my deep findings again, NATO will not allow Nigeria to operate Ajaokuta. They will continue to sabottage it. This is why ObJ played politics with Nigeria's future. My findings show that there is no political will to put it back to life.

My opinion here "I bet the empire must have threatened OBJ as at the time and OBJ to save Nigeria from the stress played Politics with Nigeria's future. Sabotage the deal by selling it out to unknown company with no pedigree in that area and that will never complete it. From my findings GEJ managed to take back the deal from the saboteurs".

Stop embarrassing your self abeg.

If cows have this level of access, close to the terminal building of an international Airport located in the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria. Then we are in serious trouble.
