Off topic

What is out of place in this OPV ?

shadowprimezero:
As good as they are, I think the demand is too time critical to rely on local vendors for now. Buhari is throwing so much cash into the military in anticipation for next year's offensive which he's hoping will be decisive. Its his last chance to leave a positive legacy on security and he know it. Lets hope to see results and a mother of all offensives this dry season

shadowprimezero:
New batch of 100 Bigfoot MRAPs for the Nigerian Army shipped. NA seems to be building up and investing significantly on protected mobility in anticipation for the dry season offensive operation. I hear 35-40 Isotrex Legions Mraps are currently in Abuja pre deployment, along with new tracked APC's ordered after the impact made by the FV-103 Scorpions

Sorry Josco, we don't have money to buy 4 submarines, even if we are getting submarine, it won't be more than 1, highest would be 2 and it will take years, submarines are very costly, 1 submarine cost a billion plus dollars, where would Nigeria get such amount for 4 submarines, when it's not even a necessity?
We can't even get that 4 frigates you mentioned there, easy abeg.

NTSA:
Kenya police (RDU) deploying to Laikipia following unrest caused by bandits.

How is this contraption supposed to work? I'm not an engineer, but my high school physics tells me this won't work.
Effort has to be acknowledged, I guess.
As someone said on the other thread, best to stick with the proven in the last photo.

Coca-Cola is made using the coca leaf (and still is to this day, albeit has non-narcotic strain. I don't know where the Hugh will come. Besides, anything that is rampant as falsely Bidexiii said, I will know. That's the simple truth.

BlackBaron:
Nigeria should stay away from any hard power diplomacy unless its likely to become a threat to us or impact on our closest neighbours.

We have far too much insecurity on our home turf to go get stuck in a quagmire in Guinea.

lionel4power:
Army procurement is madness *no offense.*

First they acquired less than 50 T-72s (three different variants), then they went for less than 50 VT-4s which is perfect, and then someone somewhere thought it was a good idea to buy another 10 T-90s! Wow. And we still have T-54/55s, and Eagle (Vickers) Tanks.

Let me not even talk about MRAPS. because personally I've lost count of the number of varieties. From west to east, middle east and back to Africa.

Technical support, training, and logistics would be a nightmare by now. Well I believe the Army have their reason which I don't know about because they've stuck with this policy for a long time.

The security of the gulf of Guinea is very important to the economy of Nigeria. Especially now that critical economic assets are being sited near the shores(LFTZ and Dangote refineries etc). For a country that depends heavily on import of finished product and export of raw materials, we can't have a strong economy if we don't have safe waters.

lionel4power:
Chai four corvettes.. Nigeria is truly better just that. Although, the CNS said that the NN is still adhering to its 10-years strategic plan.

Right now, with the two new corvettes in the pipeline, that means they've fulfilled their short-to-medium term requirement. What is left is the longer -term requirements which includes a submarine and a frigate.

JOSCOFELIX:
wait up to 2022 and see. And high increase in military budget NN will get more ship than this. I promise you that
