The Nigerian Armed Forces are swimming in cash

No we are not, if you critically look at it.

Hope NAF maintain this paint Job and not alter it in feauture

Personally, I don't like this all black cammo.

I prefer we repaint to our desert camouflage.

The DSS amongst other things has placed order for the Croatian VHS-2 rifle for it's operatives.

The DSS is increasingly ditching the Tavor-21.

Nigerian army quietly received another batch of Norinco SH5 Artillery this year.

While the service plans to modernise it's fleet of Palmaria 155mm artillery!

Tuzla class 57m FPB for the Nigerian Navy would soon be completed too by Dearsan!

The Second OPV for Nigeria would also soon be launched.

Dearsan Shipyard also officially launched the 1st of two OPV 76 for the Nigerian Navy.

This thread used to be the best thread in all of Nairaland.com, now it's a ghost town and a shadow of it's glorious self!!



I guess all things eventually come to an end!!

How u doing bro?

Long time no see

Regarding your question
My answer is any tank that carries me through the war safe and sound will be my favourite tank

Perse final effectiveness of a weapon system like a tank in a battlefield is not a inherent factor of that tank, much of its effectiveness depends on extrinsic factors like quality of crew operating it, tactics being run etc

The events in the ongoing wars has proved that OEM lead propaganda is best not taken seriously

And given the no of cheap and varied anti tanks threats which exists today and increasing, the soviet practice of having large no of cheap mass produced and resonably competitive tanks makes sense rather than having few gold plated so called technologically superior tanks

Whenever we address a problem there are multiple ways to see it

What I did just now is give a top level overview, bec it addresses the entire chain, which will actually drive your war effort against a peer adversary, from production to deployment to attrition to replenishment

Long story short, bro I don't have a favourite type but I would prefer indigenous tank - a mix between the capabilities of T series and Western analogues, and importantly with the entire chain from production to deployment to replenishment at my disposal

And tank by itself is a liability without proper trained crew, proper capabilities, proper support, proper tactics, proper logistics etc

And just of the sake of a answer T90 series (T90M if i can have it) seems a good choice as of now amongst the options you gave, provided you have a robust production to replenishment capability in-house, the latter is the key factor, otherwise no different than the others in my opinion

This makes sense , thanks for providing your viewpoint.

Hey bro,

Are you still here.

Can you give us your thoughts on Tank warfare in the war in Ukraine.

We have seen many modern tank battles in this war, by your parameters, which do you think is the superior Main Battle Tank in the world right now.

I think the T-90M is a game changer.

The T-80BVM has also been great too.

The Leo tank hasn't lived up to the hype in my opinion.

The T-72B3 and T-90A have also been disappointing.

What are your thoughts?

So in a nutshell, do you think Nigerians
will be more responsible and cooperative when talked to with respect and courtesy Or rebellion will increase

No, when you treat must Nigerians with respect and kid gloves, they'll instantly take advantage of you.

I'll rather say give respect to those who respect you in return.

It can't only be Nigerians trafficking drugs in South-Africa.

Nice change of pace.
