A little correction. Those are actually not Air Force Aircraft and Personnel, even though US Air Force is written on them.

They are from the US Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve Command. Together with the Civil Air Patrol (Whose insignia I actually have on my profile lol) They make up the US Total Force.
Splitting hairs. Reserve Command elements fall under each of the specific services i.e. Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines.
Same thing with the National Guard, with the exception of Navy and Marines, who do not have their own National Guard structures.

No missiles to be installed on them, that's understandable. They will be used during this peacetime as Patrol Ships and I learnt one of the two will serve as flagship for a West African fleet of different mix of Ecowas countries vessels which will be formed to checkmate the activities of pirates in the Gulf of Guinea in general
It's not the missiles per se. I'm hoping someone here knows why the NN opted to downgrade the main gun from either 76mm/57mm to 40mm.

Dearsan of Turkey has laid the keel of the 1st of 2 OPVs ordered by the Nigerian Navy.

The Minister of Defence, Chief of Naval Staff and other senior naval officers attended from the Nigerian government.

https://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2022/09/turkish-dearsan-lays-keel-of-first-of-two-opvs-for-nigeria/
This is the 2nd article I've seen detailing the armament Nigeria has chosen for the OPV:

The main gun of the ship will be the 40-millimeter MARLIN gun of Leonardo and will be armed with the Aselsan’s 30-millimeter SMASH at the stern of the ship. The ship will also be equipped with two Aselsan 12.7 mm RWS STAMP.

Yep. He seems to think there should be some other parallel rate. And when I explained to him why we don't have such, he got butthurt for some reason.

Grow up and stop acting like an idiot.

I required information, and asked for your assistance.

You provided the information and that should be that, not this stupid horseshit you are spewing.
Which part pains you when I explain why we don't have a parallel rate?
Normal reaction would be, "thanks for that additional info".

That hormonal outburst?

Trash!!!!

There were 2 rates available online, that was why I wanted a second opinion, not that horseshit you are typing above.

You have outlived your usefulness.

Thank you.

I wanted an on the ground rate.
We don't have a parallel rate. Being one of the world's most traded currencies, world class financial regulation, 2nd in the world when it comes to financial information dissemination/communication, tends to help.

I see the Russians continue the proud Soviet tradition of not bothering to recover or destroy equipment lost on the battlefield, even in areas under their control for months!
