chrisblack:This rightly describes the nonsense that we waited for 9 years to get two units of. The mere sight of JF17 reminds you of our importunities as a nation. I am sure even if the JF17 was just a cardboard carving of a jet, this government will go ahead and buy it just to prove that they can buy jet. 6 Likes |

Rightly or wrongly, Nigeria opted for the JF17. It's an improvement on what obtained before. They didn't acquire your favourite fighter jet, get over it. This is a pictures thread. 12 Likes |

Cameroun navy has shown interest to import Navy ships/vessels from Nigeria. The design of Seaward Defence Boat 4 has commenced, construction of ship is due to begin after the launch of Seaward Defence Boat 3. Bureau Veritas currently engaged to classify SDB's currently built by Nigeria in preparation for exports. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vanguardngr.com/2021/06/nigerian-navy-to-begin-construction-maintenance-of-ships-for-other-countries/%3famp=1 6 Likes

Meanwhile despite all challenges Nigeria keeps making progress. You may call it a paradox but God willing one day a true national leader will emerge and the people will come together. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fa0UVXzPMWI Thumbs up to these wonderful Nigerian innovators. We can replicate this in leadership. 2 Likes |

As an addendum Nigeria's brand new JF-17 THUNDER fourth generation plus Multi-role Fighter Jet is not an improvement on what obtained before in the NAF but an addition of a totally whole new generation of air combat capabilities presently non-existent anywhere else in sub-saharan Africa except in Nigeria. 7 Likes

giles14: Actual construction began in 2019 though. Damen is one of the world's largest shipbuilders, so we can't really compare. However I agree, SDB3 construction has been slow. 3 Likes |

Odunayaw: That's not cheap. Large vessels are quite expensive apparently. NDL has a good order book. They have done a lot of jobs. |

Odunayaw:I would've loved for our shipyards to have got the work. SAS, Paramount/Nautic Africa and Damen SA would have done it cheaper. But regardless of where it was done, well done to the Nigerian Navy. 1 Like |

Odunayaw: Hopefully by August SDB 3 would be launched, and SDB 4 would be 60 meters long. Hopefully we continue to grow our home grown skills, while we also look to importing skilled talents from abroad (Nigerian or foreigner). Example the design for South-Africa's hydrographic ship which is currently been built is Canadian. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by kabe1: 10:28pm On Jun 09, 2021 |
Odunayaw: South-African shipyards don't currently have the skills to deliver complex ships. There's no way any company from RSA would have bidded for the LST. |

iblawi: And to state the Ugandan SU-30s has no precision ground attack capability, no thrust vector control and many other factors like but not limited to Air Power Doctrine and the requisite human resources barely existent in both Air Forces and most Air Forces in Africa. Much can be said about the Angolan and Ugandan Air Forces but a couple of the guys here deserve no response they are just trolling and mischievous. You can't educate a jaded mind. The facts are self evident and public. |
