why den do we still import APC & LAV
Let me answer the question without going Political.
The reason being in order to manufacture APC and LAVs in Country, the F.G has to set money aside specifically to develop an APC Assembly line.This has just been captured/done in the 2017Budget.
Secondly the Military specifically the Army has to come up with a specific prototype (s) as to what kind of APC /LAV they want built.
Heavy speculation will fall on DICON, INNOSON (because they already have a relationship with the Army) and an ASSEMBLY line..
Not to be left out will be Street Group who recently delivered 177units

Very nice, this was a picture of some of the ordinary Soldiers.I was glad to see that in Night fighting we field Laser guided Rifles.
Quote "We requested laser guided Rifles so at night we can literally blind them with it(the laser Ray) and we got it.

I have a question for Death machine.More and More pictures seem to be emerging of NA and SF using either the Beryl, Ak74 and another variant the AK103 , in your opinion is the Top brass finally contemplating phasing out the AK-47?

mtcheww...almost all the training school for new recruit are located in the north...federal character principle should be applied.
The northerners moved most of the military installation to their region
Rubbish
Markmanship located at Badagary cantonment.
Our weapons are shipped and Stored down South.@The height of the BH insurgency guys were making 1620Km round trips.We honestly need to stop politicising things we don't know anything about.
Some our most sensitive and Ultra modern equipment is down South.
Again We are on Nairaland let us end it right now.

Nigerdeltaboi:
because neglect took place and training had to go at a slower place which meant the older guys who had experience had to fly but that was like say 15 years ago.
As for military institutions, they are spread around the country its just the popular ones people know.
Military installations are sited for security reasons if which the northern flank is our Achilles heel with a large and porus border as against the south protected naturally by the Atlantic ocean so it is right to site installations there.do you know the military installations in Lagos are close to twenty.
Thank you very much for telling him,nah because we dey nairaland man no fit yabis.

If you see nothing distasteful in your comment, then i really have nothing further to say.

Let me reiterate, it is not a favour. It is a service paid for, there is absolutely nothing to be thankful to anybody about.

Let me add, the South-African government had nothing to do with anything.
Let's move on.

The South African government didn't allow anything. Anybody can register for flight instruction at any accredited institution. It's called a free society.
Please don't talk about something you don't know anything about.
When commissioned officers from a Foreign Country enter another Country they first register at the Airport and from the host Country a signal is sent.
I doubt very much that South African defense Intelligence is that lax that Any Private individual can set up Airline training School without getting prior approval from the Defense department.
Every Black/Brown /White South African Officer that came to Nigerian is known to our Defense Intelligence that is how Mr Henry can tell you who amongst your officers trained in Nigeria.
Likewise I can tell you not all the Rwandan Generals trained in Uganda.

I looked up the private firm (Westline Aviation) their aircrafts and training programs, I think it was a very basic training that Gould have happened anywhere even Zaria.

The advanced lead in fighter training is usually done in the U.S on T-38 Talon.
We also send them to Pakistan , and in the past to Belarus .
Foreign AffairsRe: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by LTGEN: 2:12am On Jun 15, 2017
Henry240:
This is an unfortunate comment. Quite frankly, disgraceful.


That's common basic training they had in South Africa, something regularly carried out here at home.

It's not rocket science.

It's like an individual going about saying "thanks for the add" on facebook. It is not a favour, the Air Force paid for the service.

The volume of officers we train each year is very high, it is not unusual that men get trained abroad. We have been doing that since the air force was formed 53 years ago. In like fashion we train hundreds of other nationals in our defence colleges.

The current SAAF CAS was also trained in Nigeria.
I really don't understand the snobbish attitude in your comments.
What is wrong in sending Nigerian Airforce Cadets to South Africa.
Our own Helicopter and Basic Pilot training schools both at Zaria, Kaduna and Enugu are full.This is a comment that the CAS openly stated last year.
He said we are going to send some of our young men to South Africa, UK, and the USA.
I don't care whether it is basic or advanced flight Training because the NAF are Military personnel from a Foreign Country the School that trains them has to be certified by the South African Government, and saying thank you is being graceful regardless of whether We paid for it or not.
There are Countries that Nigeria has paid for equipment that we still haven't received.
@the Height of BH that we gave their Generals basic and Advanced Training refused to give Nigeria a single pistol , they gave us a lot of insults.
Mr Henry it is only to the better security of Africa when two of the most powerful Nations interchange Men and ideas.

This security man was at vantage position to take out the driver and the passenger @ the back, but he bailed for his life killing one.....I then now thought of how many ammo he had left in his magazine.
wow he should of shot the driver to paralyze the car , he should be commended though for his bravery , this is an extremely fluid situation that requires split second thinking

Although i do not rely on SIPRI for all my information it does appear that Nigeria is deadly serious about getting the JF-17. I also wanted to be a little bit cautious before I went any further I googled " what is a RD-33 Turbofan this is what I got from the unreliable WIKI.

Oh and the updated version on WIKI states that NIGERIA now has 50 T-72 Tanks lipsrsealed

Streit group have a servicing office in Nigeria. That's a very good advantage for us.

The other MRAPs from the US are donated, besides only 25 units, this is also not a problem.

Reva MRAP, we have 47 units primarily used by AFSF, a unit funded by ONSA not the Army.

CS/VP3, 120 units, Nigerian army.

Proforce ARA is not yet in service, besides that's a Nigerian company.

I'm not saying it's great, i'm not saying its bad either, all I'm saying is we are getting 177 new MRAPs, that's a good thing.
Let me come at this issue from a different angle
177 APCs spread out among the 8 divisions means we will see a little less of the thin skinned Toyota hiluxes on the front lines meaning less KIA due to IEDS
BIDEXII Two days ago showed on one the US donated MRAPS that drove over an IED , Minimal damage and it only flipped on it's side with probably 100% survivability rate.
I get the STANDARDIZATION process also at some point this needs to be prioritized.
B y the way JAKEPORESHENKO
Where are the APC from?
What are the tech specs on it.
I also saw they are already painted in camo does that mean the y are all headed to the N' EAST?
