Why did he not bring the new AK that was brought? I thought there was an agreement of phased withdrawal of the old AK for the new one's? Wants and needs!!! We cannot afford to arm all our soldiers with the Tavor....thats FACT!!!

No country arms its military with one rifle, you don't expect a soldier posted to a generals house to be armed with a Tavor, those in battle field/peace keeping/special ops etc, are those that should be armed with such weapon and I guess thats what he's referring to.

kenpaul0:
Not impressed with his presentation....He wont say the name of the other rifle...what's his reason? As if Tavor is made in space....He lied that Russian Military uses Tavor...They have SF in Russia using the AK....He should have educated the people on the various types of AK...Some units operate the modern AK...why make it look like the AK is not a good weapon...The men just wasted 9 minutes of my time....I dont support that the Tavor be the primary weapon of our Infantry...We cant afford that now...

Sometimes you guys talk as if you know more than the military, these guys have tested both weapons in battle and they say this is what they want, and you talk as if u've ever held an AK or Tavor, probably you read all about these guns on net.

Algerian1:
where is our henry240 ?

He wasn't given much attentions to his girlfriend, so she left.
Taken a break from this thread was part of her condition if they were to make up.

But he visits as a guest sha!!!!!

Don't think that is Arabic, or is she the first police officer u've seen, am standing by 3 officers now and nothing like Arabic.

Which of the NPF uniform fit the most and should be adobted.

Algerian1:
because heavy transport aircraft are too big , to can be hide in operations and they are used for military and civil transport .

and a camo is intersting for dog fight , close combat for aircraft fighter and low flight at high speed sead /dead ect... operations . for the enemy pilots to lose sight of the fighter jet during few seconds at high speed .

so most heavy transport aircraft have all grey or white colors

OK
I understand civil transport to be a reason..
I just feel Russian heavy transport aircraft always come white even if owned by other country unlike the american C5's and C-17's

Algerian1:
ilyushin 76

Why is it that ilyushin planes don't come in military colours.

Preparation for mission in Libya.....operation End slave trade.

FIGHT AGAINST INSURGENCY: NAF GRADUATES ADDITIONAL SPECIAL FORCES TRAINED IN ASYMMETRIC WARFARE

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF), on 30 November 2017, graduated 18 officers and 436 airmen/airwomen in asymmetric warfare to further prosecute the war against insurgency and other criminalities in the country. The specially trained personnel were equipped with necessary military skills on airfield defence, reaction to enemy effective fire during advance and quick attacks, night navigation drills, amongst others. The combined graduation ceremony, which comprised Basic Regiment Officers’ Course, Basic Regiment Airmen Course, Gunnery II Course and Special Forces Course, took place at the NAF Regiment Training Centre (RTC) in Kaduna. The various courses were facilitated by a combination of NAF trained instructors deployed at RTC, Royal Air Force Regiment Personnel, who are part of the British Military Assistance Training Team (BMATT) as well as Four-Troop Limited, a reputable foreign military training organization from Israel, which the NAF had since engaged to conduct specialized training for about 450 selected NAF personnel in 3 batches.

In his remarks at the graduation ceremony, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, who was represented by the Air Officer Commanding (AOC) Ground Training Command, Air Vice Marshal Samson Akpasa, noted that the just completed training was relevant to the protection of NAF platforms and bases. According to him, it would also contribute in no small way to the ongoing fight against insurgency in the Northeastern part of the country. The CAS then commended the courage of the graduands, for withstanding the arduous physical activities in the course of their training. While charging them to be prepared to give their best in the service of their fatherland, Air Marshal Abubakar enjoined them to sustain the zeal and courage that would no doubt be required to face the challenges ahead. Furthermore, the CAS encouraged the graduands to imbibe the spirit of teamwork and be always loyal, courageous and professional in the discharge of assigned tasks. Meanwhile, the CAS seized the opportunity to further appreciate the efforts and support of the Federal Government for its steadfastness and commitment in providing necessary funds for training and operational activities in the NAF. He equally appreciated members of the BMATT, staff of Four-Troop Limited and other NAF partners for their respective roles in training the NAF Special Forces.

Earlier in his remarks, the Commandant of the NAF RTC, Group Captain Isaac Subi, stated that due to the operational requirements of the NAF, the Regiment courses were restructured to enhance the force and critical assets protection capability of the NAF. He added that “the training modules include 3 distinct activities which include the acquisition of necessary skills, practising of acquired skills and a display of competence in acquired skills through consistent field exercise. These great feats were achieved through classroom lectures, practical demonstrations and field exercises which covers a wide range of counter terrorism technicalities”.

During the ceremony, the graduating personnel demonstrated their newly acquired skills through a series of exercises that demonstrated the integration of the air and ground elements of the NAF, to the delight of guests. The display included unarmed combats, tactical exercises and force protection drills. Awards were later presented to the most deserving students who had distinguished themselves in various areas during the courses. Another Special Forces training of 150 personnel will commence in January 2018. So far, the NAF has trained over 560 Special Forces personnel since 2015. Some of these personnel are serving in the North East and the newly established Quick Response Groups located in Gusau and Owerri. The increased tempo of training in the NAF is part of the efforts by the current NAF leadership at ensuring that every necessary capacity is developed to enhance the defence of Nigeria’s territorial integrity.

Nigerian engineer Alex Ephraims introduces some upgrades for his locally-made combatant vehicle

Nigeria is full of people with raw talent and the potential to make the country better. We have geniuses who can build vehicles to rival those made abroad, we also have creative artists and many more.
The young man identified as Alex Ephraims has added some crucial upgrades to the well-functioning car he built.
We came across photos of the upgraded car after it was shared on Facebook to celebrate the man’s spectacular invention.
Facebook user Kelechi Ogbonna shared the photos of the newly improved V6 combatant vehicle on her page.
He expressed that the genius engineer drove the car to his place of work where everyone gathered to check out the uniquely designed car only to find out it was locally made.
Ogbonna further noted that he was most impressed after he realised that the unique vehicle comes with full air conditioner.
The man urged the Imo state government to help geniuses like the young engineer to better develop Nigeria with their inventions.

TROOPS OF 6 DIVISION NIGERIAN ARMY BURST CRIMINAL HIDEOUT IN OMOKU, RIVERS STATE

1. In the early hours of Monday, 20th November, 2017, as part of their continued efforts to rid the Niger Delta of criminals and acts of criminality, troops of 6 Division Nigerian Army, based on a tip-off by some patriotic citizens, raided the camp and shrines of a notorious militant, cultist, kidnapper and ardent illegal oil bunkerer, Mr. Igwedibia Johnson, (aka “Don Waney”), who has been terrorising the peace-loving Omoku community in particular, as well as the entire people of Rivers and Bayelsa States.

2. After about an hour of gun fight, the gallant troops overpowered the criminal elements. Some of them scampered in disarray and are believed to have escaped with gunshot wounds through River Orashe in Omoku. The troops however, arrested , 7 others including 2 ladies while they were trying to escape during the encounter. It is believed that the main kingpin, DIgwedibia Johnson, (aka “Don Waney”), was not at the location during the encounter as concerted efforts are on by security agencies to track, arrest and bring him to justice.

3. The troops recovered quite a number of items at both the camp and the shrines which include; 10 human skulls, various human bones, 2 AK-47 Rifles, 1 General Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG), 18 AK-47 Rifle Magazines, 4 pairs of military camouflage, 5 camouflage T-Shirts, 3 Fabrique Nationale (FN) Rifle Rifle magazines, 39 rounds of 7.62mm (NATO) ammunition, 20 rounds of 9mm ammunition and 1 round of 7.62mm (Special) ammunition. Others are
2 bags weighing about 25kg containing substances believed to Cannabis (Marijuana), 3 ICOM Hand-held Radios and 2 MAG ONE Hand-held Radios.

3. The Headquarters 6 Division Nigerian Army wishes to thank the good people of Omoku, Rivers State, for the timely information, understanding and also wish to solicit for their continued support in our determined effort to rid our area of responsibility of militants, illegal oil bunkerers and kidnappers.

4. You are kindly requested to disseminate this information to the general public.

5. Thank you for your usual cooperation.

Seems to me like NAF if trying to do more of its aircraft maintenance and checks domestically.

The CAS added that "the decision to engage the local outfit in the maintenance of the ATR-42 aircraft was part of the NAF’s efforts at synergizing with local companies in the fight against insurgency.

A recurring feature in all the ongoing aircraft reactivation works was the attachment of NAF engineers and technicians, as part of the NAF leadership’s commitment to human capacity building".
