Dude stop what you don't know, these jeeps are not bullet proof.
There was a time that Buratai jeeps and the former theatre commander came under attack in 2015, the theatre commander was riddle with bullet.

Maybe back then ,but this LandCruiser is definitely treated.

Na wah, when did Abuja announce this acclaimed acquisition

For me these deal is still speculative.

Only the chiefs uses unarmored jeeps.

tutudesz:
That a Bulletproof jeep, look closely at the door and windshield. This particular car was in 82 division last month.
[/b]Bulletproof Glass have big dark shade around the edges and those attack happen 2015[b].

Who told you bulletproof cars has big dark shade around the edges .....

Toju200:
I know.. I mean they part paid for three helos It's not here yet Bro you leave around that area?

Yeah i do

bidexiii:
More.

This habit of doing push-ups after every address or gathering is usually very funny. Boko Haram no dey do all this ones yet the Boko boys are doing something before something do them. Give the soldiers good weapons, support, welfare, intel etc then pushups can always follow.

So you don't know a bullet proof doesn't mean 100% bullet proof. There's a threshold. If a particular spot on the car is hit more than twice or thrice then forget it. It's a staircase to hell

depends on the bullet

Depending on the armor level and if you keep shooting at a particular spot.
Level 1 can withstand three shots from a 9 mm handgun and while Level 8 can withstand up to five shots from a rifle such as an AK-47.

The person must really want you died O!

So the report that NAF is getting 2 squadron of M-346 is actually fake news. I'm not surprised though. It makes absolutely no sense that NAF would continue diversifying at such rate. It can only result in logistic and maintenance nightmare. It serves no strategic purpose too.

base on my intel i dont believe the news is fake. initially i said they have not paid money for the jet, and it was a nomination in in which a propose was sent to the company. the nigeria airforce i have seen this news from more than 1 week but refused to debunk the news. for now, until the nigeria airforce debunk the news, them we will know it is a fake news but if the nigeria airforce refused to debunk the news ,than they is underground procurement or nomination.

That's a pity. I thought the acquisition was excellent, for the following reasons:

1) the m346 is an excellent LIFT aircraft, allowing both trainer and light attack roles;
2) it's a worthy replacement for both F7 and Alpha, which will have to be replaced at some point;
3) most important, it would have simplified logistics as with phased withdrawals of F7 and Alpha, NAF would've been left with this structure:

---a) basic flight-> Mushshak
---b) intermediate-> M346
---c) final-> JF17.

they is no official debunk from the company and nigeria airforce about the jet. i heard that nigeria army will be receiving mbt and other military material. about 36-50 mbt will be receives by the nigeria army. the nigeria army aviation will receives it airlift including drone and helicopter. the modernization in the nigeria navy will be massive they is a secrets procurement of ship by the Nigeria navy. submarine, frigate and other navy equipment will start procurement process. the modernization of the nigeria navy from global military news are accurate just that the years and some delay

According to Leonardo NAF is looking at the jet but nothing is being signed yet...

thank you sir. i remember i said that nigeria airforce have not paid for it, but they have propose to the plane already. they will still be meeting between the military. the j17,su57 f35, su34, j10 are under nomination for the heavy fighter jet for the nigeria airforce. the nigeria army aviation will still have some helo and drone to play with. heavy modernization is coming to the Nigeria armed forces

NPF are waiting for state government has usual for equipment. They hardly buy any useful equipment themselves, only the normal Hilux or frontier.

Air Force Strategic Plan 2017-2026






Nigerian Air Force - Ten-Year Strategic Plan 2017-2026
The future will demand a technically capable and balanced air force that provides assured effect for defence, founded on the enduring key air power roles. The NAF Act 1964 tasked her to defend the territorial integrity of Nigeria by air. This presupposes that in the event of war, the NAF would employ air power assets to deny adversaries freedom of operation in the air and provide support to surface forces. This may also entail pre-emptive air strikes against the adversaries, vital military installations or economic assets.

The NAF is active in the counter insurgency operations currently being conducted in the North East. Suffice to add that NAF’s efforts have been instrumental in degrading the capability of the insurgents to the level whereby their effectiveness is continually being diminished. Nevertheless, the NAF should continue with the present efforts and be prepared to counter possible future insurgency from any part of the country. The NAF could be called upon to conduct operations geared towards protecting critical infrastructure and national assets. It may also include protection of pipelines, dams, power lines, airports and other government installations. These may involve combat operations to free these assets from seizure by renegades. The NAF may be required to conduct operations in liaison with other agencies to protect Nigeria’s porous borders in order to mitigate cross border crimes such as drug trafficking, armed banditry as well as arms and human trafficking.

The NAF could be called upon to undertake roles in aid to civil power /authority (MACP and MACA) covering a wide range of activities. Some of the functions may include provision of assistance in the event of natural disasters/emergencies, conduct of psychological air operations, provision of medical services to displaced persons, air transportation of relief materials, VIP movements, transportation of vital materials. In the case of aid to civil power, the NAF may be involved in combating terrorism, militancy and suppressing communal clashes among others in support of the Nigeria police, Nigeria Security and Defence Corps (NSCDC) or other agencies.

The air power response for protecting maritime resources could be through airborne surveillance of the nation’s maritime environment as well as provision of intelligence to surface forces which could be conducted day and night. It would encompass operations against piracy and illegal oil bunkering where identified adversaries could be intercepted from the air. However, these activities could sometimes be far from shore and out of the combat radius of conventional shore based combat platforms. Hence, it will be necessary for the MPAs to possess anti-shipping capabilities. Additionally, favourable air situation could be provided for surface forces.

In the case of aid to civil power, the NAF may be involved in combating terrorism, militancy and suppressing communal clashes amongst others in support of the Nigeria police, Nigeria Security and Defence Corps (NSCDC) or other agencies.

The NAF Ten-Year Strategic Plan 2017-2026 presented a road map for the evaluation of NAF’s airpower capabilities in the next 10 years. The plan assesses the operating environment, while recognising the geo-political and geo-strategic environments as influenced by globalisation and internationalisation of security threats. The NAF requires 6,786 officers and 32,697 airmen/airwomen to conduct her activities up to 2026.

Calculations of operational platforms required is predicated on the experiences gained from campaigns such as ECOMOG Operation, Operations RESTORE HOPE, LAFIYA DOLE, DELTA SAFE and the Joint Task Force operations in the North East. Aircraft and aircrew availability, mission request, mission accomplishment, communications and ISR were also considered. Furthermore, where missions overlap, advantage of the flexibility of airpower was exploited.

The total platforms required by the NAF up to 2026 as detailed is derived from both the operational and training platforms. The table also determines the total platform deficiencies in the NAF. In deriving this, cognisance was taken of existing platforms in NAF inventory. Furthermore, it brought to fore, some platforms that are seemingly available but are inoperable. These platforms, indicated as unserviceable in the remark column would need to be reactivated where possible or decision taken towards their replacement.

How many of una dey vex wey u reason security matters in Nigeria?? For now, let's analyse the recent incidents in Aba where some men in black were killed.

Wait , I need to ask, so no criminal psychologists fit guide and direct DHQs on their mission as e concern certain operations and the psychology impact needed to be created? The impacts should have a direction.

I just pity the NA personels caught in the crossfire, no bi everything be force but brain-brain should be used. Why do I say so?

The video and pictures of slain persons in ABA were not called for, totally unprecedented.

What I had expected what's to see a massive coded intelligence gathering on those killed as they had already denied the incidents and IPOB too denied! so let's get to work let's hit them hard now we have links, fingerprints to track at least even if na one! Let me not divulge too much but we would have at least gotten vital details like; where they come from? who their friends and neighbours are? where do they stay? certainly these guys have friends which I'm sure are also members of this unknown gun men. But what do I get instead, I see more of political army bragging, show offs and stupid talks about being prepared for them prior to the attack the same big mouthing with no intelligence that keeps to leading to failures and high casualties in future. These mofos don't learn, like how can we help them get common sense? it hurts to see how a few dumb men lead to the deaths of the smart ones....
Drops mic.

what happen in aba is according to the rule of engagement of the military. according to intel from people around that area. they said over 30-50 people where moving on foot and motorcycle to a location. the military where doing stop and search based on the information that some unknown gunmen where moving from one state to another. when the military heard intel about the movement of unknown gunmen to a military checkpoint the military took defensive position placing there gun truck in strategy location.the unit are special force detach to 144 battalion on a special duty. when the unknown gunmen came and started shooting on the military men, the military repelled them and started shouting(una juju no reach) killing 16-18 of them. the unknown gunmen came with some juju or magic power but it was like the military have upgraded them self. this is my report.

Those they killed are Okada men and innocent people passing by...when the gun men showed up as usual they took off in tactical manouver and later came back and started shooting indiscriminately killing innocent people and the okada riders operating nearby and tagging them gunmen...why do you think they denied any killings at first...? They know what happened and trying to cover up to prevent any backlash from the masses...!!

So what is your proof that they are okada men and innocent people?
