No big deal the almighty US is still crashing fighter jets till date, let alone our country of concern. But they should make sure they crash those terrorists too.
There is a big deal.....US may crash their Jets but they produce most of it in their country but Naija own, Senate will seat on it, raise budgets and pad it before it can be replaced with an old one as usual ....

Am just trying to help you finish the comparison anyway...

If those who produced it themselves could crash it, were you expecting those who bought it as an I better pass my object not to crash it? A country of concern for that matter oh!! No na.

Niger state harbors a large number of fulani terrorists and they are very organized. I won't be surprised that they have video of the shorting down of jet. Having jets is not an issue but having good hands to pilot it which quota system jeopardized

Alpha jet should be retired by now, it was last manufactured in 1991.

Why do I have the feeling that some people somewhere are sabotaging the efforts of the Nigerian Air Force to fight terrorism using air power, considering the way and manner in which we have been recording military plane crashes since the beginning of the insurgency in Nigeria?
Re: Nigerian Air Force Confirms Alpha Jet Crash in Niger, hail pilots by Berankis: 12:19am On Dec 07, 2025
Why is it that I don't trust any news coming from there Government, Nigeria Armed Forces, Police and any Government affiliated agencies.
Nigerians in the majority cannot be trusted!

You don't rush praising pilots. What of if the crash was due to their fault. What they did or did not do.

Then they will have to be court marshaled

ImoleNaija:
And wia did you say am not happy that the pilot survived?

Do you even know the value of the jet that crashed?
Do you know the number of people it would have saved if not crashed? Do you know d amount of monetary investment value of single alpha jet?






If any of the pilots be your brother or sister, na the cost of the flight go first come your mind?

It was a post inspection flight.

That's, after a repair work.

Nothing like the bird being downed by enemy fire.

It's a miracle that Nigeria is still flying this obsolete softskin trainer jet and light attack craft as a ground attack all weather fighter jets.

Wonder where we get spares for this planes since Germany has retired it and sold them off to other countries like naija and private individuals, while co-maker france never used theirs as attack fighters but for training pilots which has since stopped.
Thank you for this comment. You've said it all about this jet. I was in secondary school in 1981 when they were delivered and the Nigerian military is not ashamed to still be talking about this plane. I'm really impressed with your comment.

Crashing has become a nom now with the Nigerian Airforce
Re: Nigerian Air Force Confirms Alpha Jet Crash in Niger, hail pilots by BondRiv: 11:41am On Dec 07, 2025
One too many. This has now become what the Air Force is always on the news for. We should be bombing terrorists.
