For Canon
There is a lot of competition to get into the NAF
If you are determined to get into the NAF you will need to know someone as far up as a one star since you are a notch below the academic requirement.
2) You might want to devote yourself at least one year’s worth of learning how to speak French. They are needed.
3) You might have no choice to join the NA first then transfer if it is still allowed to the NAF . Don’t know if they still allow it. I can help you ask.

Close enough.

Need better pictures.

It looks like Terrorisim is increasing in Algeria.
Despite the News blackout. The amount of caches siezed has not decreased.

Seen the Female Officer quite a few times in photos.She must be part of the QRF.

bidexiii:
Nothing happened mate.....they base got overran

The fact that they attacked over large flat terrain speaks to leadership challenges in the Malian army.
Very careful NOT to speak or criticize military operations that information is scant on.
I am sure in the coming days we will find out how this base was overrun.

Looks like the CDS is speaking with the Chinese Delegation?

[quote author=kabe1 post=83992931][/quote]But this one is okay now since it is not NAIJA made nah oyinbo make am.
So Gospel seal of approval.
Let's get serious :
Maj.Gen Ezuwgu has seen combat
has seen KIA/ WIA and seen what Thin-Skinned Toyota Hilux has blown apart from an IED has done to soldiers
It literally would befuddle the mind that they would just slap metal sheets on together just to make an MRAP
It honestly doesn't work like that
Already this is the second Prototype of what we are seeing coming to its recent unveiling it will still be tinkered with just like the ARA
which is on MODEL 3.
Overall we want our Soldiers to survive IED attacks let us criticize the NA harshly when they do wrong, however when they are doing the right thing let us use the same intensity to applaud them.

GeneralFarouq:
No offence intended... Give plain words and tell us Nigerian soldiers are not brave enough to be patrolling those areas within their responsibility

Please have a little bit of restraint with what you say.
Yesterday there was a firefight in Dumaturu between BH and the NA.
A NA Captain was killed in action while Fighting a Cable got dislodged and fell on him.
He is dead
BH were killed and driven out.
It makes good writing to say NA troops are afraid that’s why the Chads were bought in.
Unless you are involved in extensive Firefights like NA is involved in , Don’t write about what you don’t know.
By the way in the Firefight yesterday in Dumaturu No Chadians were involved.

BabaOwen:
This colonel young o, abi nah my eyes ni

just has a baby face
LT. COL - Means you have spent at least 15 yrs after NDA graduation or 4 year degree
COL - Means at least between 17-20 years. depending on if you are freshly minted or a senior Colonel,

" They are mostly engineers"
The first plane that was built
by ORVILLE and WILBUR WRIGHT
Both brothers did not finish high school.

Sizzorkay:
Baby steps, instead of being negative, how about support their efforts, jeez

just got to be negative sometimes.
The CEO came on this thread
that is unheard off
Read comments that were written here
took them back and made improvements to the
ARA2.
They have been around for less than 20 years.
let us put things in perspective.

Jimi24:
SU 27/30 are also not off the shelf. There is no show room where you buy top of the line aircraft and take it home.

One of the advantages of Buhar's approach however is Russian govt can give us from their own stock, do crash program for our pilots which still won't take below 18months OR better still, Russian pilots come and do the job temporarily. That is how complex procurement is. Its only easy in the mind of the ignorant

I actually agree with you see we can get along.
The reason why I chose the SU27/ 30
1. It is a step up for our NAF pilots who trained to proficiency on the J-7/ F7 Chengdu Jet .
Required training will be between 1-2 years.
2 Since three of African Brother/ Sister nations ( Algeria, Angola and Uganda) already operate these Aircraft we can learn from them.

rka2:
lack of capacity on Pakistan's part. I don't know why they want to sell to foreign countries when they haven't been able to ramp up production.

NAF should just go for the MIG 35.

I MHO
NAF should go for the SU27/30 First.

Fire fight with BHT

The whole thing looked a bit disorganized sha. I wonder how they manage not to have a blue on blue accident.

FIREFIGHT
They, in general, tend to be disorganized that is why you have radios, Soldiers need to be disciplined, and there is no telling how long they will last.
one last point it is a credit to the NAF that they have avoided any instance of blue on blue.

Odunayaw:
ipv 2

prototype
IPV2

shadowprimezero:
DICON also enters the MRAP game with the introduction of the Ezegwu MRAP.

"The Ezugwu MRAP was built to even have more features and capabilities compared to that of PROFORCE.
A 12 kg IED Resistance & with total protection to the drive system down to the propeller, double turrets system, 615 WD turbo Diesel engine, 360’ Telescopic long range PTZ camera."

130 units expected.

This is a big boy

I know it is Monday, guys but please on both sides of the same continent can we zip up on the dick measuring contest.
By the way, guys let's commend KENYA on their recent C-27 acquisition.

kabe1:
Still waiting for any sort of South-African navy ship like.

Does anyone have any Information on the NN Ship I.e when it is due in Nigeria?
Thanks for sharing the video.

Thank you

.

seankafor:
has the Nigerian navy ships had any seashore combat experience

The NN also saw heavy action during the 1990S They were responsible for the heavy shelling of the presidential palace of LIBERIA also for bringing MEN and EQUIPMENT to both S/Leone AND Liberia.
NN UNITY was also dispatched to GAMBIA armed this also helped convinced GAMBIA strongman to step down.

nemesis8u:
A brave man only can risk his live just for the sake of trying to cool off almost daily.

And plz forgive me for askiy this but AFAIK

The only reason a brave man will risk his life inorder to cool off is to avail any opportunity to cool off in the company of a lady friend or lady friends isn't it ?

Very soon dude will tell us he is a volunteer non -paid of course

Sizzorkay:
Besides soldiers can't be everywhere over there, to say they ran away ( talking about the other guys comment) is sad, if the place holds no strategic value or there's shortage of manpower, they won't hold it, i said it before, all these silly towns should be bulldozed and move the people into central locations that can be better defended .
To think the Govt has the means to post soldiers into every 200 person village that dotted the area is madness, BH simply have to overwhelm one of such and decimate the few troops there.

He has none
as usual he always is there right after bh has just left the scene but he knows the exact details
one would think he is embedded with bh with his bold type

jln115:
because this is not a thread about xenophobic attacks.

Thank you it is not the thread for it.
It is called African Militaries for a reason.

Toju200:
Nobody critized Egypt for receiving used MRAP from the US but the day Nigeria was given just 24 many were like Gaint of Africa buying second hand weapons dats what I meant

actually it was said we were receiving hand me downs ( aloku )
translated it means to use to death/remain dash someone.

ugo4u:
You wan kuku turn NAF to army infantry.

The NAF has the
1. QRF
2. QRW
This is based on the same type of USAF Structure.

These rifles don't look rusty to me

Toju200:
NNS karaduwa

she is big

long story short
law enforcement personnel were chasing kidnappers
guys were ambushed in the swamps KIA
WEAPONS taken.
Blanket manhunt begins
The traditional ruler of swampy area calls and as a peace offering to de-escalate hostilities has weapons turned in.

kenpaul0:
Because they are bingo...the ones that came in a Dogs.

The dogs shown look like the BELGIAN MALINOIS
WORLD WIDE they are regarded as one of the best dogs for bomb detection and coin operations

rka2:
Don't know if posted before, but another photo that I like Probably when deployed to PH some years ago.
