Thetruthalways: The battle ready ships in US Navy are not as old as Aradu.There are classes of warships. Old ships may be used for logistics. The terrain is also not the same. The Naval Architect and the builders are based in US. Ships refitting are done in US to return ships to near factory default. A vehicle used in US for 30 years cannot be compared to a vehicle used in Abuja for 10 years. Aradu is too old. She is only good as a training ship. 1 Like |

Reference: Nobody knows what is happening now except those still in the service. It is like they have Destroyers or bigger Frigates. Aradu should have been replaced as Nigeria's Flagship. |

KingAzubuike: Sad but true. The NNS Aradu is wayyy behind the curve. The funds for newer ships and technology have been used to purchase the choicest apartments in Dubai, New York, Geneva and other fun spots. |

Lanrelagboi: This reminds me so much about my days at the Nigeria Naval Dockyard Wilmot Point Lagos in 2014. I served as a Quality Control intern under Dormanlong Engineering in the Dockyard. Dormanlong handled the fabrication of the Seaward Defense Boat now NNS Tandra from keel to cabin, all were fabricated in Nigeria. Nigeria is blessed but we need bits of technology to move forward and shun corruption totally. Most plate fabrications were done manually, although ASTM standards were maintained throughout the contract. Thanks to the men I worked with at that time. I learnt a lot that I can’t forget in a hurry. 1 Like |
