NN over to you.

The Aradu ought to to be totally replaced, not refurbished. This is a modern 127m & 3,400t! Larger than the Aradu!

And since we have the LST covered by Damen that is building our 2nd LST, the money could be used for two frigates!

The NNS Thunder & Okpabana have served about 10yrs and considering their age before they were handed, this is a prime asset to get.
90m, 2200t Ocean going OPVs!

These are heavier than the P18Ns we got from China and larger than the pair we are getting from Dearsan.

Nigeria has ramped up military spending in recent years as it struggles to contain attacks by armed bandits in the northwest and a 15-year Islamist insurgency against Boko Haram and Islamic State West Africa Province in the northeast.

Something that he copied from beegeagleas X space where they were discussing 1 billion dollars availability and what to purchase for the different arms of the armed forces.

Me I have already given up on the Nigerian Navy purchasing frigates. Apparently they already have a laid down path that decides what and what not to acquire

Floky215:
Justification is required..bibi already hinted on regime change in Iran.

Don't think the Islamic regime in Iran would survive the bait..

Ayatollah have already gone into hiding for fear of his life..

Let's wait and see the package prepared for the Islamic regime in Iran

Ikaeniyan0:
Israel cant go head to head with Iran except the West will support Israel

Floky215:
That's exactly what they said before the IDF entered Gaza and Lebanon and we all know how far now..

Israel would match and take out Iran any day any time, know that and know peace...

Ikaeniyan0:
The IDF is fighting militants in both Lebanon and Gaza.
