The use of a property is not in its acquisition, but its usage.

Rubbish, every time we keep buying old and outdated jets for military use.

To bomb, pump bullets and kill Nigerians, instead of restructuring the country to enable its ethnic and religious groups feel comfortable in their own country.
Nigeria 🇳🇬 is a country with no external enemy country but its leaders spend more in purchase of military hardwares than in Education for its citizens.

spot on...........

Yujin:
Like North Korea like Nigeria... buying weapons of war while masses are hungry, starving and at the mercy of state sponsored terrorists who destroy farmlands and kill farmers. One already knows for which these weapons were bought. They'll eventually fail though and the evil contraption disintegrated.

That’s good

Can someone in layman's word explain missile and rocket differences as the weaponry on the jets.

Purchased on credit or with printed money or loans?

APC and propaganda instead of calling it Tokumbo, Okrika, secondhand, foreign used they are calling the obsolete junk jets that France is offloading "pre-owned"

Thunderfayamods:
Another olodo spotted! You don't even know the meaning of "pre-owned" even a brand new product can be "pre-owned" .
"Pre Owned" means you can buy and pay gradually for a product.
"Pre-owned" is not the same as "used".
Even the word propaganda you don't even know the meaning. Try to educate yourself!

Stop Ronuing around, Alpha jets are Third Generation fighters while France is operating Fifth generation Raphale fighters.
There's nothing new about those jets, pre-owned in this context is second fairly used jets

darkwan:
guys....the next big move is drone swarms now....china has already started testin it....many cheap drones to destroy expensive maschines....
better dont fall behind in drone technology....

Yet Iran couldn't use their massive drone swamp to destroy Israel. Drone capabilities have limits and many anti-drone tanks and service gadgets are coming up as drones become a thing in warfare.

budaatum:
We need "12 pre-owned Alpha Jets from the French Air Force" to fight hunger and tribalism and boko haram and bandits and corrupt politicians and Lagos traffic and NEPA.

And this is what the France moves was all about

Edygrin:
Tinubu's state visit to France was very beneficial to Nigeria, not like Buhari that toured the whole world with nothing to show for it.

And what is France getting out of it.....?

Hmmmmmm

More food for ipob and bokoharam is ready

Make them no use this one go bomb another village for sokoto

Belgium fighter jets from France........ 😁😂

This country just likes to waste money buying jets to fight a rag tag bunch. -non standing army without tanks, APCs, even artillery systems. Ukraine has shown drones …cheap drones are the future of warfare.

They sell us second jets , and they will bill us much more to get the ammunitions for this jets. We keep wasting money that we don’t have.

Why are we so damn foolish in this country… why?

We need intel to fight these insurgents. We need loitering drones with very good optics and night IR vision that can stay up for at least 24hrs watching these guys… knowing where they sleep, staging area..


See the advance of HTS on Aleppo and Hama…. Even the Syrians and Russian jets could not stop them. They demoralized the SAA with drones attacks on the Armored Tanks, Carriers and staging area.

Cheap drones rigged up with artillery shells .. enough drones. We can get the drones rotor motor and control kits from China, and download 3D diagrams of the drones and 3D print them here in Nigeria. All these will cost a fraction of what we are handing over to France.

1kg plastic filament is about 8000naira
Cheap 3D printers …less than $300

Nigeria …. Pls grow brain!

The western world codedly funds terrorism and still sell us weapons

Till now Africa no fit build jets.

Why OP used pictures of F16 for outdated alpha jet

Dem use alpha jet swear for NAF?

Why can't the go for modern planes like SAAB gripen or F16

Until Nigeria face a real adversary na when their eye go see.

This one na real Yoruba man Lol

Cindypresh:
Good for accidental bombing the remnants of southern Kaduna villages and their neighbouring Katsina villages by the clueless air force under empty Tinupoo??


APC is a curse to Nigeria

Kaduna and Katsina villages no send ya papa. If you go there dem go kidnap you. Focus on your family.

Cindypresh:
Aaaaaaaaaaw, so they should keep bombing southern Kaduna villages and many more b4 we can eventually get there??

Wow.

You not intelligent at all and too lazy to think. All over the world military make mistakes which are rare. Will you now because of that stop fighting insurgency like Boko Haram?

darkwan:

A drone swarms cannot replace the role of a traditional multi-role fighters jet. Just like tanks are still viable equipments to keep. Different mission for different equipment.

Can you commend your president for consistently boosting your military strength ?

Is pre owned a tokumbo or new one


I no understand this little grammar

RemoveKebab:

Dem use alpha jet swear for 9ja?

This!

Nairaland is the home of false information. No checks and balances. F16s are what Ukraine was given to flight Russia. The difference between them alpha jets (1970s design) is like night and day.

SEGLIZ:
hope not for collateral damages?

here we go. dem soon drop one payload for on top your roof (all in the name of 'bomb anything') calling it collateral damage.

If you be terrorist, na your fate be that no worry.

We will soon start buying Belgium
guns and bullets for our military 🪖


In Nigeria, only politicians are entitled to
brand new vehicles and other things..

it's so frustrating and people will just digest the false info no context or community note like Twitter(X)

Manufactured :1973–1991
Introduction date : 4 November 1977.

Those Jets are older than some people on this site.
