krattoss:
how many locked missiles does the alpha jet carry on a single mission?.
Isn't the noise from the jet heard from miles away deter the effectiveness of the ops?
Alpha jets don't carry missiles. only the MI-35p, mi-35m, F-7s and Drones do. Alpha jets carry rockets, MK-82/84 bombs and a 25mm.

ISR platforms are usually in the air first before Airstrikes are called in. That's NAF SOP.

Screenshot of Nigerian Special Forces Vehicle. I like the general setup of the vehicle. It looks really ergonomic.

Czech Special Forces now use a vehicle very similar to the Nigerian Wolf special forces vehicle.

Is there any combat footage of the Algerian army engaging terrorist?

Algerian army have a strong control of medias and dont release videos engaging terrorists only official press statements about the operations . the best you will find is very short bad quality videos taken by soldiers after the fight like this :


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uIJ5ZpjEOw


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceh1Mf5NC6U


Or very few old videos (90's) of terrorism propaganda and attacks against soldiers like this

We all remember that this is where Nigeria started, innovation and hardwork will always prevail.

A few years from now Ghana could end up designing and producing functional exo-skeletons that can be used in the field.

Please, don't patronise that. Katanka has been making barely functional products with little to no recourse to proper engineering. Exoskeleton na beans?

From 'rocket launchers' fighting robots to whatever wild contraption, we're still waiting for an actual item that works. Besides they have been there many years before Proforce started.

I forgot to mention during all the screaming and crying one fact:YOU CAN'T TRANSITION STRAIGHT TO 4++ FSBs,AND REQUIRE A LIFT!! Flying F7s and Alpha jets and switching to Su 34s with their TVCs is like a kid with a brand new DL jumping behind the wheel of a F1-YOU NEED NOT BE A GENIUS TO KNOW HOW THAT DRIVE TURNS OUT.
You'd first need a Lead In Flight Trainer,also used as a light ground attack, smth like the Aermacchi 346 or Yak 130 which variously mimic the flight characteristics of the Typhoon and JSF and Su 33/34/35/pak 50. A simulator can only do so much and LIFTs are crucial since you don't want training attrition of 70 mn$ FSBs. This is why the Algerians have a 16 ship squadron of Yak 130s.
Looking at the TVC super manouevrability of the Malaysian Su 30 MKM you see the necessity of a lift.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIfwuVHhAhM
So add in a relatively cheap 15mn$ a pop Yak 130,4 ships at 2.5 mn $ op cost yearly to the price of a full 12 ship squadron of Su 34s at 70 mn$ costing 7.5mn$ yearly.

Wasn't the vehicle I posted the first Igirigi prototype?
Isn't that where they started with the Igirigi?


What you posted is a tracked APC and not a wheeled APC.

That ugly looking thing was praised as being the first fully designed and produced APC in Nigeria.

But it's a fact that when you guys started designing your own wheeled APCs you started with a piece of Cr@p and the Ghanaian APC looks way better than the Original igirigi

I amazed at the level of confidence with which you display ignorance. I commend you for that.

The Red Devil type C is the first APC designed,built and deployed in Nigeria in 1968.

I've also attached a photo of another wheeled APC built in Nigeria in 1967

Way before you were conceived to come display ignorance here.

I also like how you freely jump from Tracked to wheeled APC.

NAF AIRCRAFT DESTROY TERRORISTS’ GUN TRUCKS IN NIGHT ATTACK AT AUNO IN BORNO STATE

The Air Task Force (ATF) of Operation LAFIYA DOLE has destroyed some terrorists’ gun trucks in air strikes conducted at Auno in Borno State. The attacks were executed yesterday, 7 January 2019, whilst providing close air support for ground troops who were responding to an attack on their location. The ATF scrambled a Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Alpha Jet and an Mi-35M Helicopter Gunship, supported by an Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft, to locate and engage the group of terrorists’ gun trucks.

Overhead the target area, the ground troops were seen engaging the terrorists, who were in a convoy of gun trucks, in a fierce gun battle. After deconfliction, the Alpha Jet and Mi-35M took turns in engaging the terrorists causing them to beat an immediate retreat. In the process, 3 gun trucks were hit and destroyed while several of their fighters were neutralized. The hall of fire from exploding munitions in one of gun trucks was visibly seen. Some of the survivors, who were seen attempting to flee the location, were taken out in follow-on attacks.

Bruv there's literally no purpose to your arguments,
My point has already been made and everyone here got it.
Nigeria also made sh#tty looking vehicles it doesn't matter if it was now or 50 years ago the fact remains that you guys have also been at the stage Ghana is in right now, so i dont really see why you guys think its a joke that Ghana is also trying to build their own industry.

My friend will you keep quiet, you posted nonsense and they are correcting you, you are still arguing angry

Nigeria has been making APCs since the 60s', the Igirigi is just another APC that underwent different stages of distillation to become what it is today, but it certainly isn't the first or where we "started from".

NAF is doing a very good job. ISR assets are incredible, the MI-35M........What an incredible asset to the Air Force.

I'm sure the MI-28N would be just as bad ass!

What is he correcting?
The fact that I said Nigeria went through the process of product development just like Ghana is doing right now, so it's a bit childish to dismiss their ideas so early on?
