The real game changers are yet to come.. !

I hope NAF/NA artillery utilizes this window. SF teams should be out marking targets. Let's give these fucktards a farewell 21 gun salute

ISWAP units would be riding around in their technicals unperturbed. they might as well swap their heads out for bulbs.

We really miss those ATF videos

Awesome. It seems though that the JF-17 haven't yet been fixed with hard points yet. Along with the Aselpod targeting pod, I wonder where NAF sources its giuded munitions from for the jet. China or Pakistan?

Nice to hear that we having targeting pods, and the pilot said our jf17 is 4.5 generation capable fighter jet( hmmmm, this I'm not sure of), the capability to be upgraded to but not yet 4.5 to me.
Please who knows what weapons we are getting with the jet, to me that's the most important information at the moment.

Im thinking short ranged infrared guided A2A missiles and and some long range BVR R-Darter missiles. Also, with targeting pods, its almost a certainty that we'll be getting GBU-10 and GBU-12.

Worth noting though that we unfortunately won't be getting any RAAD-II nuclear missiles

ISWAP-Boko Haram Clash Consumes Shekau in Sambisa Forest

A situation report by one of the intelligence services sighted by PRNigeria said that, the notorious terrorist leader must have been killed during struggle for power between the Boko Haram and the ISWAP groups

The reports stated that “On 19th May 2021, about 1829hours, ISWAP top Fighter Baana DUGURI-on this selector – geolocated around sambisa forest Pulka Gwoza LGA BRS, informed ISWAP logistics commander MODU SULUM- geolocated opposite General hospital Konduga LGA Borno state that, they killed ABUBAKAR SHEKAU over all BH leader in Sambisa Forest date.

“DUGURI disclosed that the ISWAP fighters team surrounded the BH leader with his team and shooting ensued between the 2 factions.DUGURI further added that SHEKAU detonated a bomb and killed himself when he observed that the ISWAP fighters wanted to capture him alive.

“Furthermore, DUGURI informed SULUM that the two sides also lost some fighters during the shooting .He avered that even Yesterday ISWAP was pursuing ABUBAKAR SHEKAU and he SHEKAU discarded his cap and ran but today the pursuit continued and he was finally killed.DUGURI asked MODU SULUM if the other BH members who fled are returning to their houses?

“In his response,, SULUM rejoiced over the death of ABUBAKAR SHEKAU and glorified God over the success.He also said few BH members are returning to their houses.”

Very detailed convo, possible SIGINT?

EricBraven:

Have you heard of mondara .mountain

I worked in two places around the mandara mountain namely Pulka and Gwoza. In fact my office in Gwoza was Shekau quarters, there is a mosque close to my office there still called Shekau mosque till tomorrow.

I doubt we would be getting south African missiles, the production line isn't trustworthy, I would be thinking maybe SD 10 missiles, Mr Intel, any news ? Apart from ra'ad missiles?

Dunno why most struggle to accept the facts even while staring you in the face. It is open source intelligence that the JF-17 block 11 is a 4+ generation aircraft. The ace NAF agile fighter pilot himself said it's a 4.5 cadre generation fighter jet and went on to reel out its specific performance capabilities he's permitted to divulge which is just too impressive that it leaves one speechless. It is a net-centric platform able to share active data with other aircrafts and ground elements. And the list goes on and on. Having this capability in Nigeria and Africa without strings attached is truly a pure sovereign purchase and a good buy. Trust the NAF to maximize its powerful potential.

I understand, but it has no radar reduction and no aesa radar....the block 3 is truly 4.5 generation......unless ours comes with whistles and bells, that are different from regular block 2. I was truly hoping there would he a chart to show avionics and weapons, like used to be done with the former CAS.

The Pakistanis and NAF can only let you know so much for buyer-user-privileges and strategic reasons. India an enemy of Pakistan is watching. It is a 4.5 generation fighter jet. Period. Radar absolvent is not rocket science. The JF-17 is built with materials taking that into consideration plus its size its nimble with excellent aerodynamics. This platform comes with multi-mode doppler radar and AESA radar is added advantage not an end in itself. There are other sub-systems both air and ground employed in a dense air combat environment. Stop putting sand where there is none. If they give you guys the moon you would still look for holes. We are good. Thanks.

Nigerian Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau has been seriously wounded after trying to kill himself to avoid capture during clashes with rival Islamic State-allied jihadists in the north of the country, two intelligence sources said Thursday.

Shekau's Boko Haram faction and fighters from the Islamic State West Africa Province had been battling in northeastern Borno state, where ISWAP militants have become the dominant force in Nigeria's more than decade-long jihadist insurgency.

Shekau, who made international headlines when his men kidnapped nearly 300 schoolgirls in Chibok in 2014, has been reported dead several times since Boko Haram first began its insurgency in 2009.

After a series of clashes, Shekau and some of his fighters were surrounded on Wednesday by ISWAP jihadists in Boko Haram's Sambisa forest stronghold, where they demanded he surrender, one intelligence source said.

"To avoid capture, Shekau shot himself in the chest and the bullet pierced his shoulder," the source said, adding: "He was badly injured."

Some of his men managed to escape with him to an unknown destination, the source added.

A second intelligence source said Shekau was critically wounded after detonating explosives in the house where he was holed up with his men.

"We are investigating," Nigeria's army spokesman Mohammed Yerima told AFP by text, asked about those reports.

Shekau's critical injury or death would be a blow to his Boko Haram faction which has already been weakened by military air strikes on its bases and defections among his men.

More than 40,000 people have been killed and over two million displaced from their homes by the conflict in northeast Nigeria, and fighting has spread to parts of neighbouring Chad, Cameroon and Niger.

Boko Haram and ISWAP have fought battles for control of territory in the past.

ISWAP has emerged as the stronger force, carrying out complex attacks on the military and overrunning army bases.

Shekau took over Boko Haram, formally known as the Jama'tu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati wal-Jihad, after its founder Muhammad Yusuf was killed by police in 2009.

Under Shekau's leadership, Boko Haram turned large swathes of the northeast into a no-go territory, proclaiming a "caliphate" in the Borno town of Gwoza in 2014.

An offensive since 2015 by Nigerian troops backed by soldiers from Cameroon, Chad and Niger drove jihadists from most of the area that they had once controlled.

Angered by Shekau's indiscriminate targeting of civilians and use of women and children suicide bombers, a rival faction broke away in 2016 to become ISWAP with the backing of the Islamic State group.

The most you often get is guess work...apart from what is basic performance parameters of any new platform individual buyers often tailor their purchase to suit their needs but yea intelligence agencies always spook which is why you conceal as much as you can.

From the unit price we can determine if its a block 1 or block 2 JF17.
