Waitoooo,how can company wait so scarse resource to build these,it is for military,if it's military then it mean defense is a priority,no shield from crossfire.
These are certainly for golf sport and football tournament and not military.

These kind of of vehicles are made for speed, manuability, easy transport....
It mostly used by special forces for quick tactical attack against enemies forces. Their small size and light weight allow easy transportation by even basic utility helicopters to the Frontline or just behind the enemy line. Their open body characteristics is made for easy and quick disembarking by special forces.
They are also made to drive all terrain....


This kind of vehicle is the queen/bae of the special forces.....

Pro Force ofcourse, putting the AA on top is a big plus and allows 360 degrees cover, unlike the other that put only at the back, limited to a 90-100 degrees angle.

What's tactical about them when there are no armoured protection for the personnel. They are all sitting ducks for the enemies.

They just repackaged Go carts as a tactical vehicle to scam the Nigerian military.

These vehicle is not for regular troops Woh, they are made for highly trained special forces. They can easily rain fire on d enemy also easily escape d vechile Incase of emergencies...They can also drive on any road, dessert, forest , rocky terrain etc... Easily transported by air as they ain't heavy... meaning u can drop a squad of special forces behind ur enemies to do some seriously damage & then escape quickly

The two vehicles are I think for civil deployment, if you go into a theatre of war with those carts you are not safe at all, it's very bad in case of ambush and too open to all sort of projectile, it can mostly be used for quick deployment of troops.

I gave a more detailed review on ProForce infantry vehicle on LinkedIn and the company sent me a connect request.

ProForce vehicles has combat experience. The vehicle enables easy disembarking and quick manuvering.

However, the vehicle is more of military ceremonial vehicles than infantry vehicle. They expose troops to direct enemy fire. There is no any layer of protection against lightweight firearms.

For the SP, I have not gotten time to properly review their vehicle. But it looks as if they care more about aesthetics.

Not ceremonial. These vehicles are not designed for combat either.

They are meant for quick movements within safe spaces like an F.O.B, to relay messages, or a quicl resupply.

In short, its to the military what taxis are to civilians.

Gradually turning Nigeria to war zone and killing fields and subsequently raking in billions in dollars to better western economies.
This is made worse by fantastically corrupt politicians and public officers who have continued to plunder our patrimony unchallenged.

God will ruin them and their families soon!


amen & amen in Jesus name.

Because in all sincerity, there's no point building war trucks in Nigeria when we are not a country that engage in war or sale warfare equipments. I suspect there are motives for all this trucks been built in Nigeria.

God is bigger than their plans in Jesus name.

when you cover the sides, you limit the view of the soldiers in the vehicle to ambush attack.

it better they stay alert as though they are on Feet, and good eye sight on all angles.

being in a Covered car is the worst thing that can happen to a soldier, thats why in war or advancement, there are foot soldiers who work on both sides of the Vehicle trekking for hundreds of miles, whilst the car is moving slowly

They look like golf carts and with no armor to protect the occupants. If you call David to use his sling, even the personnel manning the guns will fall like goliath.

Nice. But they tagged it infantry fighting vehicle. Perhaps they don't know what infantry fighting vehicles are.

Those are labels.

This type of vehicle has been in use since World War 2 but less so now.

1. The both are good only for Show of force and not real combat.
2. The both are too exposed making it's occupant's open to direct fire from an enemy (no cover).
3. Would work better in Hollywood action movies more than in reality.
4. Or else they would use them against their regular and easy targets i.e in the South East region.
