1. We have some of these or it's variants.
2. To fight who exactly?
3. Boko Haram and Bandits and Ipob do blend into civilian population. So who do you target with missile launchers?
4. Even if you have the funds, you can't just wake up one day and buy any weapon you like eg like buying bread off a shelf!
5. Nigeria's security challenges are not the regular military vs military combat situations..
6. Finally, there are ways weapons are used in unconventional warfare!

The enablers of terrorism in Africa will not sell it to us.

Both the bandits and nigeria army has this weapon.

The collateral damage will be massive if this employed anyhow.

This is not the type of bomb to flush out terrorists

What if the enemies captured it?



I think that aerial bombers are doing just fine

If they capture it, it's mostly useless to them because it must be damaged, unless they got the pilot which they can use as bargain chip

With a missile launcher, we go mistakenly bomb Niger

Your answer to his question is 💯% accurate. Most people think fighting terrorists is like fighting a conventional warfare! No! It's not! Most of these terrorists are normal citizens by day and terrorists when they are activated. Passing by them, you will not know. Some dress in rags and act as if they're looking for scrap (iron damage), whereas they're with an AK-47 in their cart. How can the army fight such people with multiple missile lunchers?

Even heavily fortified bunkers were destroyed in Iran during 12 days war.
If truly the forests are too thick, then allow other nations try their inventions and have the bandits neutralized for free.

You guys love unnecessary topics. Defeating any insurgency needs the political will and a direct order to achieve that.
Countries like Israel are direct in their aim to defeating terrorist.

Tinubu should buy it and our khaki people will go and hand it over to the terrorists and claim they were ambushed

Is the BAT not one off the people condoning bandits, how will he buy something to destroy his investment?

You lie, sir

If he does Nigeria will be in bigger problem because those bandit will collect it from the military

All the ones we bought ended up in the hands of the terrorists through their northern godfathers.

Waste of resources on jamming AK-47 wielding terrorist

I saw a video of it being used by the Nigerian army yesterday.

It set a large area of forest behind it on fire.

Like someone above asked, to fight what exactly?


These terrorists and bandits are intertwined with the civil populace who they hold either as human shield or parts of their community.

This multiple rocket launcher is to "carpet bomb" a mechanised advancing army with maximum damage to their ordinances e.g vehicles, Tanks, supplies and not rag tags on bikes.

If used against our bandit location, the outcry that will follow it would be worse than the Air Force bombing of civilians in Rann.

Because Nigeria is broke at the moment despite subsidy removal . We only have money meant to be embezzled by the kleptomaniacs in politics .

One of the most important steps the government should take is to link every citizen’s DNA and Fingerprints to their existing identification systems like BVN or NIN. That alone would solve a significant portion of our security challenges.

Terrorists and criminals always leave traces, DNA, fingerprints, and other forensic evidence at crime scenes, and with a proper national DNA database, identifying them becomes far easier.

Nigeria needs to start taking forensic science and proper investigation seriously.

I deh tell you.. As far as I'm concerned now though.. this is when all those ICT grads have their opportunity to display their skills.. develop a killer software or algorithm that can listen to and trace calls to specific cell towers and monitor it's IO.. then assist make a killing selling it to the Nigeria Govt while still assisting the country at the same time

Nigeria has BM-21 Grads in her arsenal for decades.

You can google inventory of Nigeria’s self propelled artillery.

You are not serious o ..so that bandits will collect the weapon from the Army after ambush and prepare for Donald Trump in the sky.

Who are you using this on? The Nigerian population?

thank you for explaining to him

This are ballistic interceptor
Is missile fire in to Nigeria that we need to intercept

.
Don't put the cart before the horse. Deal with the enemies and jihadists within the army first. Otherwise it's useless and might even find it's way to the terrorists.

That minister should ask his children of bombs can penetrate forests and let them reply him.........

He shouldn't come to the public to make such response.

APC is a terro rist party. So leave story

It is very obvious must Nigerians don’t understand the dynamics of the Boko haram problem.

If you know your enemies house, the exactly location. You just have to go there to go give am straight punch

However now imagine an enemy that has no fixed address it is here today and somewhere else tomorrow. This enemy can attack you easily cause it knows your house but himself he doesn’t have a fixed abode.

This one of the main reasons, USA lost The Vietnam War.

Even if you want to apply all the force and ruthlessness in the world (leveling affiliated ethnic groups and villages, it might likely get you no where).

bomb can not do anything to terrorists, go and ask afghans how they did it when US was still there.


to wipe out terrorists, you have to think like one , thinking like one means sending one of your own to inflitrate them. in nigeria terrorists inflitrate nigerian army , collect weapons send back to their command but has nigerian army sent some people to inflitrate terrorists
