komekn: You should at the very least have the decency to quote what I actually said. I said PMB has done better for the military than GEJ/Ya'Ardua. This is what I said. Like I said previously carry out your own research, I don't need to spoon feed you with sources. It is right in front of your eyes. 8 Likes |

This also confirms that 2 of the 3 JF-17s Nigeria ordered have now been flight tested. All 3 JF-17s would definitely arrive Nigeria this November. 2 Likes

With the serial number now confirmed, without a doubt this was the Nigerian Air Force JF-17 flying in Pakistan a couple months back. 2 Likes

komekn: Do your research provide evidence of our military expenditure budget since the inception of the PMB administration. Right out of the bat you will notice major changes in Defence procurement between PMB and GEJ/Yar'Adua administrations. PMB does government to government deals, a clear departure from GEJ whose administration relied mainly on contractors and middle men in more than 60% of the latter's procurements. PMB also pushes mainly at local defence manufacturing, especially for things we can produce. A clear example is the Nigeria was supposed to receive Varta MRAPS from Ukraine, instead the government rejected that and instead went for Proforce MRAPS. The military has it's shortcomings but there has been a lot of improvements in many, many areas under PMB. 12 Likes |

nemesis8u: Meaning it is an attack helicopter. Saying dedicated is just semantics. Yes I know their are design improvements, including avionics and performance but both the MI-28 and Rudra are attack helicopters. |

With each iteration of the Seaward Defence Boat produced in Nigeria, we can see considerable defence improvements and sea keeping abilities. SDB 1 is more of a littoral vessel. SDB 2 looks more seagoing and can handle significant days at sea, is larger and has more armament. SDB 3 defiantly looks sea going. Would be able to handle the west-african ocean, looks faster and is more heavily armed. |
