Nigerian Air Force JF-17

LTGEN:
I am not sure where you got your decisions on this being a crappy APC:
I went and did a cursory check and in a short check discovered it is being used by the
Cameroonian Presidential Guard.
Some of the features disclosed that it has a Stag level of one and can be raised to Three.
Really can’t understand the Rant either.
Outside of the Failed UAV deal that was actually cancelled by the GEJ before they could bilk Nigeria .
The Only other G2 -G2 procurement deal was for the Shaldags in which by the best accounts convinced the Militants this was Ship not to be trifled with.
Since then until the Blue project there has been no procurement.
The NAF SF trained by an Israeli PMC have been highly disciplined and commended for their performance in Battle in the N’ West.
Not picking a fight just respectfully curious .
Please enlighten/educate.

It's a low quality APC, with overheating issues.

It's bullet resistance rating is poor. For reference watch Proforce video on issues faced with APCs imported from the middle east.

The APC was dumped by a state government in the South-East region.

Proforce PF2 would have been better.

Xbee007:
Israeli military contractors have been milking us dry since the beginning of time! They were part of most of the defence contract scam that started during Obasanjo's administration and got to a crescendo during Jonathan's which saw Nigeria paying billions of dollars and getting substandard equipment and sometimes nothing!

I don't blame them though, without the clueless and greedy Nigerians who give them the contract they are nothing.

Really sad. I read about a deal to purchase 6 units of SU-25 for ridiculous amounts.

I think it was eventually cancelled.

These vehicles are rubbish, that's the fact.

Toju200:
configurations of Gaia thunder Non looks like this but doesn't look like PF 2 either almost

I was wrong, it's an Israeli low quality Saymar Musketeer APC.

youghs:
PF 2

That's not PF2

You're looking at Saymar Musketeer imported from Israel.

Retarrded decision but that's where we are.

komekn:
Be honourable.

The first picture which was posted was completely devoid of any FLIR pod. What was shown was just the search light.

You then present a new TOTALLY DIFFERENT picture in which the FLIR pod is seen at the nose of the helicopter. And you then ask the question ❓ Thats dishonourable and a lack of integrity.

I see nothing to commend the NA for the entire exercise is steeped in subterfuge with claims and counter claims by different government bodies.

This was not a RESCUE but a RELEASE after cloak and dagger negotiations that included Miyatte Allah.

There is plenty to be ashamed about and nothing to commend.

You have a comprehension problem, I find it amusing.

This is my post, concentrate on the area in bold.

kabe1:
You have a habit of arguing aimlessly, pointlessly without doing any basic research.

Is this FLIR not clear enough for you?

The Nigerian military did all in it's powers to deny the bandits any freedom of action.

They deserve to be commended for quick action, professionalism and bravery.

They all deserve medals for the actions taken to rescue these boys.

Helicopters with FLIR, Special Forces, ground troops, heavy weapons they deployed with speed!!!

This is by far more impressive than the rescue the Americans were praised all over for recently.

The Troops and commanders deserve more than just praise.

If you had done basic research, you would have seen the FLIR pod clearly.

Instead of carrying out basic findings, you instead proceeded into a meaningless rant.


I don't get why you come to this thread to cry and rant, if you can't make a constructive contribution without wailing all over the place, you can create your own thread.

Not to bore well meaning Nigerians with your constant drivel.

fabselad:
Central African soldiers trained and equiped by russia Wagner group. Dealt a heavy blow today on rebels in the town of damara.

This unit seems really well trained.

..

Massive Nigerian military exercise today

marvin906:
So. In simple terms for every time an f35 leaves the runway 44,000 usd drops

That cost includes the pilot's wages.

ArabicBerber:
Nigeria should probably switch to exclusively buying there future aircraft from China and Russia because the Pakistanis & Americans took far to long to deliver you these J17s & Tucanos despite neither of these craft being all that top tier. Especially when they deliver much more advanced aircraft to other countries far faster It's clear they see you guys as low priority.

JF-17 is a Chinese aircraft, Pakistan only runs an assembly line.

The reason for the delay is because the Nigerian Air Force only recently paid for the aircraft.

The Tucano deal was signed in late 2019, 6 aircrafts have already been produced.

I really don't see the delays you're talking about.

shadowprimezero:
Seems there's yet again another armoured vehicle in NA inventory. Same vehicles used in the new year gunfire celebration. These blind procurements are really getting out of hand....

It always seems to be in secret, in bits and disproportionate procurement. Terrible procurement.

Raaven:
Algeria military budget for 2021 just released 9.4 billions dollars

It seems the budget fell?

shadowprimezero:
Really hyped for this movie!!!!

JF17Thunder:
Oh I see. I thought he had fallen prey to conspiracy theories.

Hopefully NAF makes a considerable follow-up order of JF-17s. Perhaps the Block 3 version.

3 units only of a fighter aircraft is a weird order.

JF17Thunder:
They are not photoshopped.

Today, a Pakistan Air Force ceremony was held for the completon of 14 JF-17 Thunder Block-2 Bravos (dual seaters) in 2020.

In that ceremony Nigerian Air Force JF-17 Thunder Block-2 Alphas were also present.

They are parked behind the PAF JF-17 Thunders.

Over the coming days, hopefully we'll get a lot more photos of NAF aircraft.

He was been sarcastic.

Toju200:
bro it looks more like a Surveillance like or C2 mobile center.

Look closely at the First vehicle you'll see a mast that on camo paint same as the truck possibly holding a ptz cam. Second one looks like a control center.

You have very sharp eyes.

4 x Manta class boats set to be delivered to the Nigerian navy from Malaysia

Nigerian made self propelled artillery systems.

Or better categorized as Nigerian modified artillery systems, all based on the 105mm artillery.
