13hours anybody??
The movie is better than lone survivor IMO

It's a very nice movie. It has a little bit of the comedy "lone survivor" lacks.


In my opinion "Act of Valor" beats the trio of " 13 Hours", "Lone Survivor" and "American Sniper".

This photo confirms the Beechcraft aircrafts which were delivered last year from the U.S have been rigged to carry out ISR duties.

Thank you. *shakes hands*. Goodmorning sir.

Morning bros.

Kazakhstan state-owned defence company and Paramount group Kazakhstan(South-Africa) develops new IFV.





The new «Barys» is a mine-resistant
armor-protected personnel carrier with
8×8 configuration. «Barys» is are local
variations of Paramount’s Mbombe
armored personnel carrier. The Barys
differs from the Mbombe 6 in that it
offers the three crew and eight
dismounts STANAG 4569 Level 4
ballistic and mine protection.



The «Barys» will fitted Russian Baikal
combat module. Baikal is the informal
name for the AU-220M automated
weapon station that is armed with a 57
mm gun developed by Burevestnik. The

a minute out to a range of 12 km.

It is a recon pod. The Beechcraft is most often used as an ISR aircraft or EW. Never seen any re-modified as a light attacker.

nigeria could have alpha jets carry GBU-12 Paveway II laser guided bombs and have the Beechcraft Super King Air 350 laser designate targets for them. that's if that FLIR cam pod has laser designation capability

I really have limited knowledge on FLIR systems, so i can't confirm or disagree.


What i can however confirm is, for manned ISR Aerial assets the Air Force has,

- 4 Beechraft King Air 350i

- 2 ATR-42 ELINT

- 2 Guardian MPP

The Attrition replacement Alpha Jets gotten from the US were supposed to be able to deliver PGMs unfortunately they had all those capabilities stripped out.


What we require are proper 4th Multi-role combat aircrafts, not 3 GEN upgrades.

PGMs Is not a new technology why they got it stripped out. many 3 GEN aircraft have it.
an updated f7 can carry laser guided weapons or some smart bombs

When Nigeria buys equipment from the US, offensive equipment is usually stripped out. So we usually buy offensive equipment from the Ukraine, China, Pakistan, Czech republic, Israel, South-Africa, not so much from Russia.


Thing is, Nigeria Alpha-Jets are already due for replacement, so no point in trying to fit them with PGMs. The CH-3As are there for that purpose in the interim.

Revealed after the development contract was awarded to Denel.

They are also in different classes. The Mbombe 8 has just been revealed.

There's also the Denel RG-41 IFV.

The Badger is a beast though!!!

Yes USA have strict restrictions on arms sales.
USA want the weapon buyer abey their regulations on the usage. But alpha-jet is French made isn't it? The French also listen to American ? It seems like they have common interests in Africa.or simply because they are ally. I hear some rumor say they even sumggling weapons to ISIS or BHT? But I guess they won't let anyone find evidence if this Is real

for nigeria alpha-jets to drop GBU-12 you wont need to modify or upgrade your jet .they will drop them like any other dumb bomb after being commanded by the FLIR operator on board the Beechcraft Super King Air 350.who by the have designated the targets, the GBU-12 or any other laser bomb kit for the MARK 82 Bomb .which you can buy from several other sellers e.g israel,brazil,turkey,india will seek the target and glide towards it using laser beam riding

They are not rumors, we know they are behind it cause white men have been caught in Cameroon severally supplying boko haram weapons but France always insist they must be tried in France because Cameroon and other neighbors are French babies. There is nothing we can do since they were not caught in Nigeria.
Clinton's time was Talibans, Bush's time was al-queda and Obama is ISIS. Can you guess what the next president will come up with?

Badger IFV.

The Mbombe 8 is still a bit of an unknown creature. And I'm not sure if it is as mobile as it's earlier versions.

Again I'm not sure what "soviet" technology it incorporates. I'm not despising Russian tech but thinking logistics.
