davefurn: They are in charge of military operations in Abuja, parts of Niger and Nassarawa. The police continues to prove that they are very incompetent sadly, that's why terrorism in Nigeria has blown out of proportion. There's nothing political about the situation. 4 Likes |

NTSA: The police are primarily in charge of security, supported by the NSCDC which is a paramilitary agency, then you have the Army (Military). For operations like this, irrespective of the incompetence of the Nigerian Police Force, with the jail break in Kuje and the thwarted attack at the Nigerian Law school which resulted in the killing of 3 soldiers, there's no way the police would have been able to handle such a complex security situation. With regards to Chain of command, I have no clue of how that will work. 2 Likes |

ItooWorWor: Let's hope so cause the Chinese are very unpredictable. With the previous border skirmishes they've had with India, the harassment of Australian planes and the infiltration into the ADIZ of Taiwan's airspace, they've grown bolder and bolder. Also I remember president Xi Qingping saying he will not mind making use of military force to bring Taiwan and China as one. China sees Taiwan as it's territory so the presence of any foreigner especially American (whom they are not in good terms with) without approval from the Chinese government will be seen as aggressive. They are even contemplating to shoot down Mrs Pelosi's plane |

Toju200: Well that's good news. Pls do you have any latest development and info about the NASENI first ever "made in Nigeria" helicopter. I got to know that they've been transported to AFIT for flight testing, so how many will be delivered and inducted? Will it armed with the locally made aerial gunpods or JC 6 rocket pods? Although it is to be modelled after the Dynali ultralight helicopter that has the capacity for only pilot and co-pilot, will the Nigerian made own be able to carry more crew? |

kabe1:The T-129 for 6x $270M is a done ✔️ . The AH-Viper are a done ✔️ and are definitely needed. Nigeria has refused to pick up 7x MI-35 that she has paid for, for fear of CAS sanctions. M346 are coming Nigeria has already paid for 24 Engines- because She needs to retire her 40 year old A-Jets.They are tired. Rtd Air Marshall Sadique Abubakar saw this situation. Air Marshall Amao has already sent one of his trusted lieutenants to visit the Base where the Italians train their own Pilots.. M-346 x24 are a done ✔️ Even if the Europeans help finance it, Ukraine versus Russia has changed a lot. Nigeria is not done with Turkiye , this is a long term deal with Military implications. Neither is Nigeria done with the USA. Both deals have long term Political, Economical and Financial implications. 7 Likes |

About the 7× Mil Mi 35 that NAF has refused to pick up, I wonder if the C.A.S is going to cancel the deal and demand a refund from Russia |

Senegal takes delivery of first C295 transport Senegal has become the latest African country to receive Airbus C295 aircraft, taking delivery of the first of two transports on 28 July. Senegal’s Armed Forces reported that the aircraft was received during a ceremony held in Dakar. A second C295 will arrive at the end of 2023. Minister of Armed Forces Sidiki Kaba said “These two aircraft will enable Senegal to ensure, independently, the projection and disengagement of its troops engaged in the various theatres of external operations and to meet all the transport and training needs of the internal theatre.” Kaba also received Mi-17 and Mi-35 helicopters that had recently undergone major servicing. “The acquisition of the CASA 295 and the return from overhaul of the combat helicopters are expanding the Air Force fleet. The challenge of preserving potential remains to be met, in the particularly demanding field of aviation.” “Today is certainly historic as it marks an important turning point in the life of the armed forces, which are significantly increasing their capabilities in the context of strategic air transport,” Kaba said. “A multirole tactical transport aircraft equipped with the latest generation technologies, the CASA 295 has large personnel carrying capacities. Beyond its take-off and landing performance on short runways, its versatility allows it to cover a wide spectrum of missions in air transport, air drop, and medical evacuation thanks to a configuration change capability in very short timelines.” In addition to aircraft, Senegal will take delivery of eight LG1 105 mm howitzers from France’s Nexter, and is receiving around 5 000 M4A1 rifles from the United States to replace the country’s M16A1 assault rifles. The latest tranche of rifles arrived in Dakar in January this year. The equipment acquisition is part of President Macky Sall’s Emerging Senegal Plan that aims to enhance the country’s armed forces. Impending deliveries include three OPV 58S offshore patrol vessels from Piriou, while in June, Senegal’s armed forces received Puma M36 armoured personnel carriers from South Africa, as well as heavy machineguns, mortars, recovery vehicles, assault rifles, riot shields, a dozen Toyota Land Cruisers equipped with pintle-mounted heavy machineguns, combat ambulances, rocket-propelled grenade launchers and riot helmets. In addition to Islamist terror groups in the Sahel, Senegal is dealing with separatists in its Casamance region, the location of one of Africa’s longest-running conflicts. The C295 is accumulating a steady stream of orders in Africa. In November 2021 Airbus delivered a C295W to Burkina Faso and on 31 May, Mali received a second C295 after a year’s delay due to US sanctions. The first arrived in December 2016 from Airbus. Earlier this year, Angola firmed up an order for three C295s, four years after its government first revealed plans to acquire the aircraft, which will be used in part for maritime surveillance. https://www.defenceweb.co.za/aerospace/aerospace-aerospace/senegal-takes-delivery-of-first-c295-transport/ 3 Likes

davefurn: Morocco betrayed the Arab league during the six day war and Tunisia won't dream of supporting Israel or even buying into Uncle Sam gimmick, they have a lot to lose if they do because Iran can destabilize Tunis with it influence and even Morocco is worried about Iran influence in Tunis.

Isn't it the money, why can't the same happened now. Remember Israeli defense minister had a trip to both Tunisia and Morroco. In destabilising, who are the best destabilisers on Earth?....

jteku: Ministers are politicians, they're not specialists in any field. We have Head of Departments (HoDs) who are the actual professionals. The minister gets appointed to position by a President based on their political affiliation, an HoD is the one who does all the work in the Department based on their qualifications and experience. So this is not a balanced comparison. HOWEVER, you got this post from a website called "MyBroadband.co.za" which strives to get clicks by painting SA as a doomsday state ever since the mid 2000s. 2 Likes |
