Are there modern Russian HMDS used by fighter pilots?

I'm not referring to the old ones used in the MIG-29, but newer modern ones. Something like BAE systems striker II helmet.

Please be educated and know the difference between make(produce) and re-assembling.
Don't think this thread is meant for only you people who comment and post pictures the most, alot of exposed minds who know better about these things come here as guests and even registered members of this forum to read and just go away because they don't have time. How did I even know about this thread? I've been at the airforce base ikeja throughout this lockdown and was close to a flight lieutenant checking out nairaland on his laptop and it was this thread. The young man was just shaking his head, smiling and grunting as he glanced from pages to pages. Obviously someone was posting a wrong info and misinforming the general public.

What is wrong with some of you, for real, you make comments like you don't think.

Information posted here is open-source, by that it means that the source of the pictures are the army, air force, navy , police and newspapers, and are available to everyone online.

That vehicle I posted earlier, here is the source.

I just hope we bought these vehicles in reasonable numbers.

It would be nice to have at the minimum 50 VT4 Tanks, 80 units of ST-1, 77 105mm artillery.

I know this doesn't concern the thread.

The army recaptured all LG captured by BH, bombings in Kano, FCT, Jos, gombe and so on ended.. bombings even in borno reduced by over 80%..They were pushed from almost everywhere in North East to northern borno,lake chad..
if this is not progress then I don't know what to say.

They even bombed Kogi. It was that bad.

It is futile.

COMBATING COVID-19: NAF AIRLIFTS MORE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT, PROVIDES OTHER SUPPORT AS IT SUSTAINS MEASURES TO CURB SPREAD OF THE VIRUS

As part of its continued support towards combating the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Nigerian Air Force (NAF), today, 10 April 2020, airlifted medical equipment and supplies donated by the Turkish Government to Nigeria from the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos to the Nnmadi Azikiwe International Airport (NAIA), Abuja. The donated medical items, which consist of several boxes of equipment, medications and other supplies, weighing about 4,000 Kg, were airlifted by a NAF C-130 Hercules aircraft (NAF 917) and handed over by the NAF Aircrew to a representative of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 for delivery to the Central Storage Facility in Abuja.

It may be recalled that the NAF, in furtherance of its constitutional role of providing Military Aid to Civil Authority (MACA), had earlier detailed an aircraft to airlift a team of Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) health officials from Brazzaville in the Republic of Congo, where they had travelled to undergo a World Health Organization training programme on the management of COVID-19, but became stranded due to closure of air and land borders by the Government of Congo Brazzaville. Furthermore, the NAF airlifted some healthcare professionals from the Irua Specialist Teaching Hospital in Edo State to Abuja and continues to avail its aircraft for the airlifting of relief materials as well as officials of the Federal and State Ministries of Health and NCDC to enable them sustain their vital functions. It may also be recalled that the NAF had, on 24 March 2020, airlifted medical materials consisting of 107 boxes of medical supplies and equipment donated by the Jack Ma Foundation. Moreover, the NAF, through its Liquid Oxygen Plant at the 103 Strike Group, Yola, is also producing oxygen for distribution to Isolation Centres and designated Hospitals across the Country in support of the national response to the COVID-19 emergency.

As regards the safety of its personnel and their families, the NAF has taken elaborate steps to deal with the COVID-19 threat. Since the first confirmed case in Nigeria in February 2020, the Medical Branch of the Service has undertaken a comprehensive sensitization campaign across all NAF units while emplacing necessary measures to prevent outbreak amongst personnel and their dependants. The sensitization campaign included awareness lectures on precautionary measures as well as the distribution of over 30,000 information, education and communication materials on the disease to NAF units. In addition, some NAF medical doctors, nurses and other healthcare workers have been mobilized as part of the 80 selected Armed Forces of Nigeria medical personnel deployed to support the Federal Government’s effort to deal with COVID-19 in Nigeria.

In addition to the sensitization and training, the NAF has emplaced series of preventive measures to ensure that personnel are adequately protected whilst performing their constitutional role of defending the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Nation. These measures include the disinfection of facilities as well as the production and distribution of large quantities of hand sanitizers by NAF medical units to personnel and their dependants, especially NAF troops on the frontlines. The Service has also installed hand washing facilities in all NAF units including Headquarters NAF Abuja, while all visitors and passengers boarding NAF aircraft are properly screened and the aircraft disinfected after every flight. Moreover, in order to ensure that NAF medical and emergency personnel get adequate protection against COVID-19, the NAF Investment Limited (NAFIL) Tailoring Workshop contacted relevant Government Agencies for the licensing of locally produced personal protective equipment (PPE) for use in NAF Hospitals. Besides, the Air Force Research and Development Centre (AFRDC) has been tasked to develop a ventilator locally to be used after certification by relevant Government Agencies

While commenting on the steps taken by the Service so far, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, stated that the NAF, along with sister Services and other security agencies, would continue to mobilize its human and material resources and make available its assets to ensure that COVID-19 is defeated. He therefore enjoined all NAF personnel to maintain prescribed personal hygiene and social distancing precautionary measures, whilst eschewing fake news and complying with all directives issued by Defence Headquaerters, including staying at home, where applicable. He noted that by banding together and complying with these precautions, the Nation would collectively overcome the challenge posed by COVID-19.

Salatavor:
you are buying CH3A and you are happy? You are buying JF17 as your front line interceptor and you are happy?

How many are you buying = 3 how many years did it take you to buy this cheap China made jets 8 years since procurement agreement was signed. Which reliable international military is using this jet? Nobody.

CH3A how many did you buy? 4 how many are still operational: barely 2

Are the drones still playing attack roles? No now uses as ISR platforms.

What happened to the Russian MIGs, The French Rafael, The Grippens. What happened to them, why buy a jet that is grossly untested, not combat ready as can be seen by it's recent crashes during the North Quadavo Operations to drive out terrorist from the Quadavo province Northern Pakistan.

You make a ridiculous statement about the airforce fielding only Alpha Jets, when presented with evidence to the contrary to dispute your false claims, you jump into a rant.

I don't care about your long epistle or your insignificant opinion.

Try and make factual comments, that's all I'm asking you.

Algerian soummam schoolship. 5500 tons , 132 m . in china this days for a heavy upgrade

What is a school ship?

Salatavor:
The only thing that will happen to them is that they will become a stronger unprecedented fighting force. While you will be here showing us pictures of 1956 Alpha jets and calling it a combat capable platform. In the past bicycles were used for war effectively but do you still see people doing that today, should we say because one soldier killed 10 men while riding at full speed with a bicycle we should give all our men bicycle?

Tell these looters that the alpha jet is outdated and they will remind you of a once in a lifetime scenario were the Alpha jet managed to destroy a terrorist gun truck.

This comment makes no sense.

Why is Nigeria buying JF-17, CH-3A UCAV Super Tucano and MI-35M then?

Nigerian Air Force Marauder MRAPs

phazotron:
So what about buying a standard military cargo transport and outfitting it?

We need standard military cargo aircrafts to transport our troops. We don't even have enough transport planes, why would we need a gunship similar to the AC-130?

Nigerian army 105 artillery.

jln115:
the G6-52 is the longest firing 155mm SP artillery in the world.

the G5-52 is the longest firing towed 155mm in the world.

and the T5 is one of the longest firing truck based 155mm systems in the world

Give credit were credit is due!! SA makes some bad ass Arty systems!

Again, I don't disagree, SA makes great artillery.

However you do know you need special rounds to hit those far ranges?

There are many great artilleries in the market, with very good financing option.

I personally prefer the T5-52, the Russian one, there's a sweet one from Serbia and the Chinese best seller which Algeria bought.

jln115:
Eeben Barlow confirmed its not STTEP however!

I saw his comment on twitter. STTEP is not the only South-African PMC.

You also do agree, if it is that gazelle pictured, then it is South-African owned?

Tanks are very important in COIN

Syrian army replenishment in Idlib province.

New Tanks are been sent to the front.

If this is the helicopter shot down, then it is definitely South-African or Zimbabwean.

This reminds me of how the SADF and Zimbabwe before 1980 mounted machine guns on helicopters.
