One mumu go come talk say NA no get snipers

Mad people everywhere.

New hardware delivery for the Nigerian army.

It looks like some sort of BMP.

South African Army Tank

Based on popular demand.


The Orsis T-5000 is mounted with a nightforce optics 5.5-22×56 NXS scope with 56mm objective lens to provide maximum clarity and precision accuracy.

Beauty.

kikuyu1:
Ideally it needs own 14.5 mm or .50 BMG to combine direct fire capability not just self defence.

I agree.

kikuyu1:
Really? That freeboard looks way too small.

An 85 m OPV like the BAM can handle up to sea state 5. Can the SDM or barge deal with SS3?

Look at that larger ship fighting the sea. Observe.

I clearly stated they won't be able to handle rough seas.

They won't sail to South-Africa, they have however sailed to Ghana.

Nigerian army Sniper

The Sniper is armed with an Orsis T-5000 Sniper rifle with a suppressor.

shadowprimezero:
I don't understand how getting a decent picture of the ARA MRAP on the front lines seems so difficult

I think when the numbers increase, we would be able to get clear pics.

If it was bought by the Air Force, it would have been a different story.

Since some people really haven't gotten the message, let me post this here again for all and sundry.

kabe1:
Public Service announcement!!!


In light of recent events, I'm forced to make this public announcement.

This thread is not defence headquarters, it is not the office of the NSA and it's definitely not the President's office.

I am not the army chief or the chief of defence staff, neither am I the President.

So please don't ask me questions or refer to me like I'm the top brass.

Thank you all for your anticipated cooperation!!

P.S - In all you're getting, please get sense!!

Nice one @kabe1

Look at these lovely beastie......::.
Ten so far in the north east theatre.

We need more of it. Including more Proforce vehicles.

joshingjosh:
Guy easy abeg

That Salatavor no just wan get sense.

Salatavor:
I don't get, I should go tell them about your issues he Armed Forces.

I've noticed you. You can now run along.

kikuyu1:
These 100 foot SDBs? Hardly. With their small size they're strictly for light in shore duties,EEZ patrolling,SAR etc,etc.

I don't think you're referring to my post. The Barges that are been built will replenish Navy Ships at sea. This means the Ships can spend longer at sea patrolling the gulf of Guinea.

I was not referring to the SDBs which we have. Besides the SDBs are also ocean going. They would not be able to handle very rough seas but they've proven to be very capable. Traveling all the way to Ghana and participating in various military exercises at sea.

Salatavor:
[s]ode.. It's your physics teacher that is ignorant. Can't you see in all the pictures you posted that the chassis was re-inforced. How do you expect an SUV already carrying the weight of ballistic steel to start moving around mortars.

You probably used your Okeke Physics for toilet papers back in school.[/s]

.

Take this trash to defence headquarters, stop ranting in this thread.

Salatavor:
does the chassis of that vehicle look to you like something that can bear the burden of a mortar. Even the light ballistic protection on it is already too much weight. Why don't you hang the mortar on a keke na Pepe.

Why are you hopelessly ignorant na?

Why don't you ask questions first.

Short Documentary on the Ezugwu MRAP.

Very close range firing with AK-47.

It can resist 12KG mine. Same as ARA II from Proforce.

Stargate254:
Relations between Kenya and Somalia were already unstable, then this happens.

This makes no sense, when did this happen?

Why would Ethiopia shoot down an aircraft in an independent somalia.

Toju200:
Air force or navy....
probability that it's for NAF is 80%

I agree with this. 80% NAF, 20% Navy.

Toju200:
New Update
According to a report in the French journal Africa Intelligence, the Nigerian Army is engaged in negotiations to purchase the Chinese Class II rotary-wing AVIC AV500.


Kabe1, bidexiii,jln115 Back me up with the pics pls

What this means is that the previous drone can't be for the Nigerian army.

According to a report in the French journal Africa Intelligence, the Nigerian Army is engaged in negotiations to purchase the Chinese Class II rotary-wing AVIC AV500.

jteku:
Like a tractor

Hahahhahahaha

jln115:
the newer/upgraded ratels I've been in the driver seat and instrument panel are a bit nicer.

The interior looks very ugly though.

Confirmed, it’s the WOLF SFPV

The number of locally built military vehicles in use with the Nigerian army is steadily growing. Very soon we would hit the 30% mark between locally made Nigerian vehicles vs imported.

Toju200:
my guess would be the Navy or army..
Both are seeking for UAVs.
Why would the Airforce go for the drone against Tsaigumi.

My guess is Air Force then Navy. I know Navy are also in the market for a sea based UAV, and this fits ideally.

However, giving current environment, I think it's the Air Force.

The Air Force would go for this instead of the Tsaigumi because it needs a proven system, loiter time and urgency.

This is not to say the Tsaigumi is not a good system either.

bidexiii:
@kabe this looks like the vehicle you are asking of, it’s WOLF SFPV

Yea, thanks.

Patented:
Use by whom?

My guess would be Air Force. The Air Force was supposed to get UAVs from UAE, but that deal didn't materialize.

With warmer defence procurement with the US, I think the Air Force has gone with this option from Textron.

Again, it has to be air force since they already have trained personnel.
