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.

New Drone for Nigeria.


AAI Corp. gets contract to supply Aerosonde Mk4.7 for use in Nigeria and Uganda.

Toju200:
yeah PF-2 I know the army bought some but I haven't seen it in the front line....

I meant to say the ARA 2.

bidexiii:
Nice picture and glad to see more of these MRAP in the frontlines.
But am still concerned about the weight of this vehicle, if it’s getting stuck during dry season when the rain has not started yet fully. Vehicles in the ARA II will perform when it comes with handling north east terrain.

I think the vehicle is heavy also, the Proforce ARA 2 is better but this vehicle is also a beast in it's own right.

I recently watched a video of a Turkish MRAP that was stuck in mud, a Russian MRAP had to tow it out of the mud. This is also dry season in Syria. Russian and American vehicles have also been stuck in mud. It is not unusual for MRAPs to get stuck in mud or sand.

The Ezugwu MRAP is a highly capable vehicle, it can take 7kg mine under the belly and 10kg under the tyre.

It also uses a very powerful Chinese engine.

Vehicles made in Nigeria are increasingly playing major roles in the Nigerian army's fight against Insurgency.

Proforce Defence can easily convert this vehicle to a self-propelled mortar system.

Nigerian Defence manufacturers should turn their attention to building vehicles like these.

They can easily convert various light armoured vehicles to mortar carriers.

A vehicle like this would work very well with destroying BHT swarm attacks.

Nigerian made quick response and quick intervention vehicle. This one looks like it's for the Air Force.

The vehicle above looks just like these below.

dude with the right procurement and seriousness of the NA we can achieve Egypt status buh Ethiopia and Zimbabwe dude
SA, Tunisia even morroco still exists even Libya is a force to reckon with than Ethiopia and Zimbabwe
buh I agree than foreigners shouldn't be the ones ranking our military

No offence bro, but this is nonsense.

This has nothing to do with the right procurement, or seriousness as you claim.

We can never have a military as big as Egypt, it's not just a question of money.

However, on finance, Egypt spends way more than Nigeria on defence. Saudi Arabia and the UAE also spend billions of dollars on the Egyptian military.

The US also sends to Egypt 1.3 billion dollars each year for their military.

Egypt is also in a geopolitical environment that demands they have a very large military.

Nigeria can maybe aspire to have a military comparable to Morocco. Algeria is just way too far ahead of Nigeria.

NigAirForce has, today, cleared 2 new C-130H aircraft Captains - Flt Lts Owoeye & Nwadozie. Also, a female pilot, Fg Offr Ijelu, has become the 1st female NAF Captain on the King Air 350i used for ISR.

Toju200:
I meant the one next to it Kabe1

There's no evidence they have started mass producing it now.

Xbee007:
First class troop carrier, only in Nigeria. It is glaring we don't learn from our mistakes in this part of the world.

This picture is very old, not recent.

bidexiii:
Painted in blue ?
A lot of them now and honestly I don’t know there name

Do you mean this one, are they mass producing it?

bidexiii:
NA WOLF SFPV

Do you have front and side view of this vehicle?

Toju200:
I can get u but it's just too difficult for me to get it uploaded..

Upload it on your Facebook, post the link.

Easy as pie.

Toju200:
it's called the wolf special forces vehicle..
Based on the Toyota Buffalo..
Made by Nigeria army engineers.
Like lemme say 2016 perhaps

Do you have clear pictures?

South-African Special Forces

Please who can identify this vehicle, I have not seen it previously in use with the Nigerian military.

The T-72B3 in my opinion, the best Tank in Europe.

Just like the T-34, for every one destroyed, the Russians can make 2 to replace it.
