thanks its too complicated for me this frequency subject embarassed


so if you get data link , long-endurance, high-altitude surveillance drones guided by satellite , it will give nigerian army a hudge advantage in operations . any info about how nigerian army use this satelite ?
Not sure when but eventually the Military will get their own Satellite, it is only a matter of time.
Currently they get @$%/ from the U.S.and the U.K.

What's the use of ONE drone and ONE seaward defence boat, if there's not enough money, why not concentrate on one this year then the other next year? and as if that's not frustrating enough, DSS are getting THREE, THREE different rifles: CTAR, TAR AND X95, why not just use one uniformly? Nigerian mentality nawaooo.
DSS has always used three since the GEJ administration.This might just be a follow up or, if you recall , the recently formed QRF regiments and to a lesser extent during the graduation ceremony were equipped with one of these I forget.They could now of ordered their own rifles.

Someone told me about the navy going for a ship from Indonesia. I guess it's that SSV ( I guess could also serve as a LST since its a landing platform)
Maybe someone was taking notes on the Gambia Mission.

[quote author=Nok234 post=62137130]Not a bad idea, but better if we standerdize the EC-135 will be a better choice [/quote
Because Nigeria has used the Bell both in the N.N., NAF (now) and the NPF.I would go with the Bell Helicopters.
Also don't forget it would be easier to access parts from the U.S.(The Civillian version)..
The EC 135 , I would like for the NAF to continue to use them in that same role of QRF, CT and offensive signature because of its low engine noise signature.

I would like to see Nigeria develop
1) An amphibious APC
2) A 6X6 troop carrier.
While I applaud the move by the NA to develop a GPMG , if the powers that be are listening, they should lobby very hard to modernize all the
Armour ed Brigades specifically to upgraded T-72s and T-90s this should be a priority.The vickers should be phased out, the current T-72 in action when they come in for maintenance should be upgraded. The T-55 those that are serviceable should be withdrawn and used strictly at NDA or at the Armour ed training school.

Very Good Quality pictures
if the Former COAS LT . GEN IHEJIRIKA started the culture of Maintenance and repair in the army , the CAS Air Marshall Sadique has really taken it to another level.
A couple of things I want to point out :
From the Numbering sequence this Helicopter is NAF600 so logic dictates that the other Helicopter would be NAF599 or NAF 601
It therefore means the gap from the last MI -35s inducted earlier this year (NAF 559 AND 560) will probably fill in the gap between 560- 599.
I am hoping as the CAS implied for an early Christmas present from the NAF.

those lapels represent the courses he has undergone some courses are meant to be taken when you are at a particular rank.
In the photo he had :
NDA lapel : meaning he is an officer who trained at the academy (RC or SSC)
Armed forces command and staff college lapel:
which put his rank from major upwards
National institute of strategic studies kuru lapel: only senior officers from colonels take this course
Infantry lapel of school of infantry UK (can't recall the name )
others include PSC(+) passed staff course and other courses undergone depending on his corps and unit.
guys please add to anyone I have missed.
I saw a medal with the inscription 25 possibly meaning the individual
has served at least 25 years in the Armed Forces.

"Meanwhile, Congress recently approved the controversial sale of 12 Super Tucanos to Nigeria following the US State Department’s green light in August. The estimated $593 million foreign military sale includes the aircraft, weapons, training, spare parts and facilities to support the programme. The Obama administration had put a hold on the sale following the Nigerian air force’s bombing of a refugee camp on the border of Cameroon in January 2017, but President Donald Trump restarted the approval process in the spring. With Congressional notification complete, the USAF is drafting a letter of acceptance to present to the Nigerian air force."

Do please outline America's interest to us and cross reference them with Nigeria's interest giving examples of past historical events to back your point up.
America's interest in Nigeria regardless of whether a Democrat or a Republican is in power after the debris of the election has been cleared has followed a consistent path.
Nigeria should be a Democratic State, stable by relative African terms and be a partner in terms of World Stability (African sphere of influence) examples are Liberia, Sierra Leone, Somalia , and more recently Gambia. In Liberia at the Conclusion of the Civil War and as a warning to Charles Taylor . The US sent an Aircraft carrier to Liberia but deliberately stayed off shore and waited for the Nigerians to take all the credit before having one of their senior officers disembark to meet with Brig Okonkwo ( N.A)

And pushing forward to the future analsyse the prospect of American -Nigerian relations in the area of defense, economy and culture?
The prospect of American -Nigerian Relations in the area of defense has increased tremendously since GEJ and BHO have both left office,
Nigeria receives real time CASH ,Satellite and Drone INTEL from both the US and the U.K. PDT has invited PMB to the White House and has ignored A.I to indicate he will be selling Weapons and Planes to Nigeria, Economy wise The U.S has turned away from buying Oil from Venezuela due to poor relations to buying from Nigeria.
http://www.africanews.com/2017/03/06/us-increases-imports-of-nigerian-crude-by-287-percent//
"Latest data from the US Energy information Administration (EID) shows that the country imported 76.9 million barrels of the country’s oil in 2016."
In July 2017 I believe the U.S imported North of 2M Barrels from Nigeria.America wants for their own interests for Nigeria to be stable enough and prosperous enough to hold free elections, that is why the U.S aid lent the Dangote Group $997 Million for the Dangote Refinery.
And try not to mention the war against terror, terror is an international problem and the US would side with even her most dangerous enemy to defeat it.
Since the left wing of the State Dept finally accepted that BH is actually international, things have improved compared to before.

[b]For once give some reasonable reason why, while everybody is running simulated invasions of each others territory, Building their militaries to counter emerging threats and designing war machines that can and will render the whole communication infrastructure of a nation useless in the event of a conflict.you seem to be quite sure that for one reason or the other we will stay safe in a world at war.[/b]
America's PRIMARY focus is N.Korea and Iran both Countries are PAST the Simulated phase, Any Country can run a simulation it does mean it is a reality nor does something from West point mean anything .
War COSTS Money Starting in the Millions and Ending in the Billions that is why a LOT of Countries do not go to WAR anymore unless they feel their own EXISTENTIAL threats are at risks.
Foreign AffairsRe: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by LTGEN: 5:49pm On Oct 23, 2017
Whyem15:
US is already working on a plan to invade West Africa. Most likely Nigeria. You might see this as just a war game, but after having a plan such as this, they only need orders to invade.
This is just a bunch of hyperbolic rubbish, to be filed away with THE U.S CIA signing of on the demise of NIGERIA in 2014. The U.S suffered 28 casualties in Somalia and the U.S Congress demanded the immediate withdrawal of ALL U.S Soldiers.
The U.S and Nigeria are Allies and their INTERESTS are in alignment.The U.S trains certain segments of NIGERIAN armed Forces and Some U.S SOF have trained in the N'Delta.
There are certain people who would believe in everything and anything that has to do with the breakup of Nigeria, it ain't going to happen.

A Master Warrant officer ( name withheld) has been promoted on the advice of the commanding officer of his battalion ( Name of battalion withheld) and approved by the Nigerian Army Council due to his exceptional leadership and bravery to Captain. This is highly unusual in the Nigerian Army first being a Non-Commissioned officer, the time when this happened you would have to go back to the Civil War era, I have deliberately kept his name a secret because of what happened to the notoriety of LT. COL Abu Ali.
I t has been said fortune does smile on some in times of War. Congratulations to the fellow.

Armour and Artillery components would most definitely feature considering the terrain and the proximity to neighboring nations. 1 brigade infantry sokoto and 1 battalion brinin kebbi are both infantry inclined so I expect both armour and artillery units to complement them.
