Baba, your write up here no make sense, why the name calling?.
He wrote what he did out of his kin interest to share with us his "mind bogging new intel" innocently, pure love and an ignorance to defence matters not rather from a bogus POV. If you've followed him unbiased for a while you would have spotted the difference.

Nevertheless, as one big battlefield family we should learn to respect people at least... Some people no deserve am and when you see them you go know once but not Joscofelix.

Peace
Are you done ?

With your one big family

The company Leonardo has confirmed that Nigeria hasn't signed any deal with them but looking with interest to the M-346. Nigeria just went window shopping grin but at least they understand there is need to replace the Alpha jets and F7-NIs. A deal might be signed soon but not necessarily with Leonardo and the quantity might be frustrating.

Good news then.
For the sake of cost I will prefer the Yak-130 or L-15. The will practically fulfil the same purpose and they are all identical.

M-346 is far more expensive not because it will do something special but because of the cost of labour, tax and other Euro wahala. Same reason Iphone prefers manufacturing their phones in china.

F-7 won't get replaced anytime soon. Besides M346 is good replacement for Alpha jets but doesn't serve the same role as F-7. Besides F-7 are still new in our inventory.

2005-2008 is when the fleet of 18 (12 F7, 6 FT7) was delivered.

Since then, that fleet has lost more that 30% of its original strength to crashes.

IIRC all, or almost all the trainers are gone as described.

I don't think it can be called new again o!

Anyways FAE 250 / 500 / 1000 kg bombs can do a lot of area damage

Maybe those were used

FAE - fuel air explosive

Correction taken my Oga.

But my point still stands.

According to your own numbers, 20% attrition has been due to reckless pilots?

And another 20% due to other factors (birdstrike etc).

20% pilot error in a fleet is ABNORMAL.

Others have them in service agreed, but the Nigerian fleet is tiny mehn.

I'm open to correction on this number but I see that Naija's fleet is the 2nd smallest globally, except for the Namibians with 6 planes.

Na our battle or size mates be that?

Lest we forget, 9 planes means only 3 are available at any time.

3 in the air on tasking, 3 in hangar on maintenance and 3 sitting on tarmac quick alert.

In abnormal times like these I can only cut cap for NAF HQ & NAF Engineering for their ability to generate sufficient sorties to cover up this glaring deficit.

Hmmmmmm, it is well.

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
Where will the FG get the money to buy all this submarines and frigates you're talking about? Submarines are fvcking expensive.

Just heard a very negative report on Kiss FM radio that some soldiers of Operation Lafiya Dole are protesting their posting to a certain part of the AOR (actual area unstated).

Reasons for protest are said to be:

Inadequate payment of allowances.

Poor/defective weapons and equipment.

A lack of adequate vehicles ( I suspect they are referring to armor there).

My brother, there is nothing you can do about the numbers/size. The only reasonable thing for the air force to do is to get JF-17 or any other mordern multirole fighter jets to complement them.

F-7 are third generation jets and the major reason they were bought in 2006 was because Nigerian Air force was used to mig 21 (2nd generation jet) before they were all grounded. The airforce was completely down to the extent that there were no proper fighter jets to fly. It was just to fill gaps.
