UNITED STATES AMBASSADOR PRESENTS LETTER OF OFFER AND ACCEPTANCE FOR SUPER TUCANO AIRCRAFT TO NIGERIAN AIR FORCE

The United States (US) Ambassador to Nigeria, Stuart Symington, today presented the Letters of Offer and Acceptance (LOA) in respect of the A29 Super Tucano Aircraft to the Nigerian Air Force (NAF). The LOA represents the official US Government offer to sell US defence articles and services to the Nigerian Government. Speaking while presenting the LOA to the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, at NAF Headquarters in Abuja, the US Ambassador noted that peaceful existence in Nigeria was strategic to the security of the entire West African Sub-Region in particular and the entire world at large. Accordingly, Ambassador Symington expressed the commitment of the US Government to helping Nigeria completely defeat the Boko Haram Terrorists and also eliminate all forms of terrorism from its territory. In addition, he conveyed the US Government’s belief that the capacity of the NAF could greatly be enhanced by the acquisition of the Super Tucano Aircraft. According to him, the US Government would therefore continue to support the NAF in its capacity building efforts, including the timely supply of needed aircraft spares. The US Ambassador also indicated the readiness of relevant US Government officials to work with NAF officials to facilitate the early delivery of the aircraft once payment had been made. In that regard, officials of both the US Government and the NAF would be meeting in early January 2018 to jointly study the LOA prior to subsequent endorsements by both parties.

The CAS, while receiving the LOA, expressed the appreciation to the US Government for its steady support towards sustaining NAF air operations. He also praised the personal commitment of the US Ambassador to ensuring that the Super Tucano Aircraft deal became a reality. Air Marshal Abubakar agreed with Ambassador Symington that the wellbeing of Nigeria was closely linked to those of other African countries, and indeed the entire world, as terrorism is a global phenomenon, which had to be confronted by all stakeholders. He then reassured the US Ambassador of the commitment of the NAF to the stipulated deadlines in the LOA. Furthermore, the CAS assured the US Ambassador that the NAF would ensure the readiness of proposed home base of the Super Tucano Aircraft in Nigeria before the aircraft’s delivery. He further said that the NAF would nominate and prepare all the pilots and maintenance crew to be trained on the Super Tucano Aircraft, ahead of their training in the US.

It is expected that the LOA would have been signed and necessary payments made before 20 February 2018 to ensure the commencement of production of the NAF’s Super Tucano Aircraft. It would be recalled that the US State Department had earlier approved the sale of 12 x A29 Super Tucano Aircraft to the NAF to further aid the nation’s counterinsurgency campaign.

when will a sub sahara sign a $12 billion deal like the Qatar!?,we are poor

giles14:

Cry us a river. It is $593million not $$635million.
Meanwhile, Turkey just signed a $2.5billion deal for Russia's S400.

giles14:

Less than $600M. Funds from loots so what again? It's better than them returning the money and we hearing nothing about it again.

Will you please stop with this collective nonsense and examine countries individually?
Just because Kenya does or doesn't do something DOES NOT apply to all other 54 countries on the continent.

Are you sure about the bolded? I only ask because of the below in the statement:

frumentius:

Yes, there was once a report on that and it was Official. I'll try and get the link again.


Yes the funds need to be paid as its not in the hands of the suppliers. The government will need to negotiate the payment with the US govt.

The looted funds would be held by the US Treasury Department. As soon as Congress gives the final OK - if they were to be used to pay for this transaction - at the click of a button they'd be transferred.

Personally, I think the looted funds story is bunkum. During Obasanjo's presidency, funds looted by various dictators and stashed abroad were used to wipe out Nigeria's debt to the Paris Club and other external debtors. I fail to see what other funds could be involved.
I'll await your official source - not your unreliable media .

Like I have said repeatedly:
1) It takes time
2) The difference between the U.S under Trump in contrasts to Obama is very deliberate one is willing to sell weapons , real training , real spare parts and the other wasn't.
3) The US has decided it is in their own strategic interest to sit at the table and bring something to the table.
4) Nigeria will not only buy the A29s, they will now most definitley buy a squadron of JF17s
5) I struggle objectively sometimes to understand some of my Naija brothers in the scheme of buying aircrafts (12) relatively speaking for $593 + parts+ classifeid technology transfer+ infrastructure + missles ( guided and unguided) i do not understand qatar is paying $6b for 12 jets from Britain , I wonder what will happen when Nigeria inks a $1b deal just for aircraft?
Happy new year Gentleman.

Which classified technology and which guided missiles?

Somali forces equipped with Turkish made MPT-76 assault rifles. Turkey has gifted Somalia 450 of these modular rifles.

Which classified technology and which guided missiles?

The Paveway is a guided missile. And definitely having Super Tucano means Nigeria will have some classified info of some of its components which Americans would want to guard jealously. Just imagine what the Chinese would do with it if they can lay their hands on it, no offense to our hardworking Chinese friends.

The Paveway is a guided bomb kit not a missile. There's nothing special about guided bombs even Denel has a better bomb kit like the Al Taraq which was a joint development with UAE's Tazwan defense.

Stop making things special when in reality China has no interest in a Super Tucano turbo prop system.

china Xian JH-7 fighter-bomber with a mounted FLIR and laser designator pods and laser guided bombs and this isn't exclusively possessed by US.Turkey,brazil,india,israel e.t.c have equivalent tech

So how much did Abacha loot?
When Nigeria cleared her debt with the Paris Club and other debtors, the FinMin Dr Okonjo-Iweala said Nigerian BoPs weren't impacted as the funds came from recovered military dictators' looted funds held abroad in foreign currency.

I just looked at US Treasury restricted accounts: $275m accruing to Nigeria. Not enough to pay for the Tucanos. More important though: this was seized after 2012, so from whom?

You guys really should move to a less opaque budget system. Nigerian taxpayers deserve no less[look at me agreeing with Agubug/Supreme/Covert] !
