cool Ask Trump for B2,unmanned drones[UAV,UAS],
Grand troops will do the needful to running bandits/terrorists

It's killer drones we need to win this war of insecurity.
Killer Drones are so precise to the extent that one person out of three people staying together can be killed.
With this, kidnapped victims will not be killed together with the kidnappers and terrorists

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.
Palestinian are not terrorist, Israel is terrorists here they are total strangers in Palestine

Lol.

This is offensive weapon of war
Re: BM-21 Grad Multiple Rocket Launcher: Why Can't Tinubu Buy This For The Army (Vid by Reference(m): 3:56pm On Nov 30, 2025
Primitive weaponry.
No responsible military has it or uses it.
This is just for indiscriminate and reckless bombing.and.the resultant mass casualty.

The rockets are unguided so they can go anywhere and hit anything with unintended consequences.

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!
Ipob is not a terrorist organization
Re: BM-21 Grad Multiple Rocket Launcher: Why Can't Tinubu Buy This For The Army (Vid by Donjuan77: 4:04pm On Nov 30, 2025
They will still go and sell it to bandits

This the BM-21 Grad multiple rocket launchers
Minister of Defense said bombs can't penetrate forests why can't this type of weapons be purchased

/.

Did they tell you that they have no weapons to fight the terrorists? Do you believe that the ragtag terrorists can truly overpower the Nigerian army? Some invisible voices are commanding the military not to fight the terrorists. The few that dared to fight back to cover themselves are "court-martialled" for not obeying orders.
Buying it is akin to buying it for the terrorists because by some magic, it will be abandoned to the terrorists.

Both the bandits and nigeria army has this weapon.
You are right that the Boko Haram guys have it. I have seen it in one of their videos. Maybe they hijacked it from Nigeria Army I don't know.

I believe Nigeria Army should have but I haven't seen it or been parade in any video.

Those Boko Haram have a better sophisticated weapon, more bullet cache use by the regular combatants of the Nigerian Army...

Why do you take Nigeria so serious 😕?

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 angry

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).
I hate it when you guys try to make it sounds as if fighting terrorism is a rocket science.
This people have camps.
Even if they move from one camp to another on daily basis, it's still in the forest.
With modern technology applied in warfare nowadays,those camps can be mapped out and carpet-bomb to ashes.
If some of them are lucky to escape and run back to the community,they won't be able to bring all the deadly weapons we have been seeing them displayed in videos back to the community.
By so doing,the security forces on ground in the affected communities can easily hand pick those ones.
Then cut of the businesses of the financiers and you see terrorism dying a natural d.e.a.th.
So,stop telling us that those terrorists live among the civilian populace and as such there would be collateral damage bla bla bla.
They are not living among the community anything anywhere,they are in the bushes.
All the mass numbers of hostages they have been taking,tell me which one they hide in any house within residential community?
This thing you people are trying to mystify is just ordinary...oo.
Forget about America going to Vietnam or Afghanistan to fight terrorists.
Our own is in our own soil,we are not going to another country to fight them.
So it's a different ball game.
Or are you telling me that ISIS,HAMAS, HEZBOLLAH,BOKO HARAM,ISWAP,etc can form a Base in US soil,China, Russia or Israelis soil and be operating freely kidnapping students en mass,attacking churches and unaliving military men and then survive there for even a week?

The US/NATO Himars is more powerful than this. You can check both online by using the keywords: BM-21 vs Himars.

1) it's expensive
2) bandits and, BH,iswap are not interested in it
3) it is not useful

The enablers of terrorism in Africa will not sell it to us.
On point even the tucano jet sold to us were with conditions when , where to use it
Re: BM-21 Grad Multiple Rocket Launcher: Why Can't Tinubu Buy This For The Army (Vid by aribisala0(m): 4:45pm On Nov 30, 2025
The solution is not just weapons

Soldiers must do what bandits do
Live in the forest permanently

In other words a Forest Corp must be inaugurated with the surveillance and combat capability that entails
It won't be cheap

We can start by asking does such a thing exist anywhere

What is the defense budget for? There's no amount of money pumped into the military and paramilitary that will stabilize security in nigeria because corruption,tribal, religious, banditry sentiment is their focus
Re: BM-21 Grad Multiple Rocket Launcher: Why Can't Tinubu Buy This For The Army (Vid by ussv: 4:57pm On Nov 30, 2025
This will also bring collateral damage. Bandits and terrorists live among people. Some of the people would rather betray government than to betray bandits. Some would pay tax to bandits rather than pay tax to government.

5. Nigeria's security challenges are not the regular military vs military combat situations..you people will just be using grammar to give all sort of excuses, which civilians are in sambisa forest or other terrorist enclaves?,these terrorist have fortified camps in many forests that need to be taken out, this kind of multi barrel rocket launchers can be useful but there would be the need for such camps to located accurately using aerial surveillance,all sort of stories were cook up to purchase the super tucanos now where are the tucanos, Nigeria is not serious abeg.
6. Finally, there are ways weapons are used in unconventional warfare!

The fight against Nigerian brand of terrorism and banditry which is gorilla warfare requires a different approach from conventional warfare. What we need is proactive intelligence driven military modernization and operational approach.

Vietnam is going to far back in time. Ask USA about the shege they saw in Afghanistan.

This one obviously has never lived in the North. I serve there, several years ago. I was even lead PO for a state election in one very remote village. There was no road to this village, it took us over an 1-2 hours on bike (let me help you put this in perspective, I live in Lagos; with free road bike can take you from Lekki to Alaba under 30 mins. Now imagine going for 2 hours with no holdup) the bikes were sliding, like it was on dessert sand, bike men were expertly using their legs to balance/swim it throughout the journey cars couldn’t pass it. I can’t count how many times people fell off the bike. We finally got there no single network. I was told you have to go to the peak of one place to make a call.

Do you know how many gallant soldiers have lost their lives but you are smartest, so you should they would have done whatever they could to end the insurgency if they could in face of their immanent death.

Carpet bomb to bomb who? Lol. Let me not say you are talking in the nonsense. Let’s give you the modern technology so you can go for us naa. Since you are super human or you know something we all don’t.
