Soldiers in the theatre was complaining about the quality of food and the alleged deduction from their monthly allowances, so top brass opted to pay them in cash to avoid wahala

The monthly allowance differs from the normal salary?

Lol. I was thinking you would say Algeria. I love the specs of the Koalitsiya. It's a sexy vehicle and state of the art in all respects.
However, I would take a single Jobaria rocket system over a platoon of the 2S35.

Poor mobility make it strictly road bound and its also incapable of return fire which coupled with its enormous ordnance load make it a fire magnet for the enemy. I don't see anyone but Gulf Arabs wasting money on this thing.

I don't think they are still operational. When was the last we saw footage of a drone strike from NAF?

@xbee007 you shouldn’t be saying this grin
You are an old member on most of the thread. Even when we just acquired those drones how many “drone strikes” have they showed us ?
I doubt if they are all up to five ! A drone strike is very expensive this you know and the impact is not that devastating like dropping a 500kg bomb grin
Drone strikes are for high value targets, the last drone strike of NAF was a strike on an artillery truck which if allowed to used against ground troops would be devastating.
The NAF keeps good condition of its assets especially the new ones, remember over 85% of assets are airworthy now.

Whoever feels this thread should be closed should do himself the honor of unfollowing the thread and never commenting again. Abi what is with the obsession?
We are churning propaganda yet you can't do without coming here to express your thoughts and opinions.
We are tired of your bullshit, we will be happy when you leave the thread never to return.

Those haranguing us about being low-lifers, kids who haven't achieved anything in life and time wasters who have nothing to do with their lives than to contribute to a thread like this are not surprisingly the most active on tribalistic and romantic threads. They are the people you will meet in threads filled with hatred, bigotry and all forms of negativity.
Ancestors who have absolutely nothing positive to offer other than their ages grin

Most of you on this thread are just here to hype the Nigerian military and sing their praises to the high heavens.. that shit is worse than you think. Unfortunately 80% of you here aren't in the military present or past. You just salivate with the pictures you see on the internet.

Note , I was in the system, 174 battalion
Nobody talked sense into my head before I hustled my discharge certificate even though I saw hell before I finally got it.. even thought of going Elvis was part of my plans too but all in all, army no worth am. Forget what you see in the media. If you are/was in the system, you go understand better

You must have been those who where in the N.E theatres during the dark days and am not saying it’s easy. If you like join the United States Army or any of this European military the army is for a rugged soul.
I must say 85% of those who join the military or Army most especially joined it because of poverty or they needed a job, the military is not for everybody. That’s what we don’t know in this country.
I was bread and grew up Kadunna State and there are military formations or barracks everywhere, My dad drove to meets his friends in Kalapanzi artillery Barracks in Kakuri Kaduna States in the 80’s, I see those neatly kitted soldiers well dressed and that’s how my love military started.
Dear friend the military is a place of adventure mixed with adventure and disaster, learn how to enjoy both, that’s the life of a man in Uniform.

NIGERIAN ARMY TROOPS SUSTAIN THEIR REINVIGORATED ONSLAUGHT IN VARIOUS OPERATIONS AGAINST INSURGENTS AND OTHER CRIMINAL ELEMENTS NATIONWIDE

1. On 21 May 2020, troops of Army Super Camp 11 Gamboru deployed in Ngala LGA of Borno State based on credible intelligence rescued a local who was abducted around Wulgo general area by some Boko Haram criminals. The hot pursuit by the troops forced the abductors to abandon their victim and flee. The troops also recovered 5 bicycles belonging to the abductors.

2. In another development, on 20 May 2020, troops of 251 Task Force Battalion Strong Response Area Dolari deployed at Internally Displaced Persons’ Camp II in conjunction with elements of Borno State Civilian Joint Task Force arrested one Bakura Rawa Modu who was detected loitering within the Camp. During preliminary interrogation, the suspect claimed to be a Motor Boy and further confessed to being a Boko Haram member for the past 5 years. He also disclosed that he coordinated several suicide bombings within Konduga general area in addition to his participation in series of Boko Haram attacks on both military and civilian targets. He further confessed to be a spy sent to monitor activities of troops within the Internally Displaced Persons Camp.

3. Similarly, on 18 May 2020, troops of Strong Response Area Ngoshe while on patrol intercepted a woman named Maryam Ali in the bush. Preliminary investigation revealed that the woman was abducted by Boko Haram criminals 5 years ago after they killed her husband. She further revealed that her escape from Boko Haram criminals was made possible by the devastating artillery and mortar bombardments on the Boko Haram criminals enclave in Gava, Gwoza LGA of Borno State by Nigerian Army troops that killed 15 of the insurgents while many others including herself suffered various degrees of wounds. She was however given First Aid by the troops and later moved to a medical facility for further management.

4. Elsewhere in the North West Region, on 22 May 2020, troops of Operation HADARIN DAJI deployed at Forward Operating Bases Wuya and Jangebe conducted a robust fighting patrol to Doka and Tungar Duna Villages in Anka LGA of Zamfara State. The resilience of the troops led to the discovery of a kidnappers’ hideout at Tungar Duna and subsequent rescue of 6 kidnapped victims from the den as the criminals fled on sighting the advancing troops. The rescued victims have been debriefed and reunited with their families.

5. Similarly, on 20 May 2020, troops of 1 Battalion in conjunction with other security agents mobilized and rescued one Alhaji Ibrahim who was kidnapped by bandits in Laga Village of Bagudo LGA of Kebbi State. Sustained pressure by the Search and Rescue Team made the bandits to abandon the victim and flee. However, the victim was rescued unharmed and subsequently reunited with his family.

6. In another development, on 19 May 2020, the resilient troops of 17 Brigade deployed at Maidabino while on routine patrol intercepted 4 armed bandits riding on 2 motorcycles at Leletu Village moving towards Dunya Forest in Danmusa LGA of Katsina State. In a desperate bid to escape, the bandits opened fire with no effect on the troops while the troops responded effectively, thus neutralizing one of the criminals. Furthermore, troops recovered one AK 47 Rifle, one AK 47 Rifle magazine, 20 rounds of 7.62mm Special ammunition, 2 motorcycles and one handset.

7. Also, on 18 May 2020, troops of 11 Field Engineer Regiment acting on credible intelligence arrested a notorious bandit named Haruna Habu at Kagadama Village in Kubau LGA of Kaduna State and recovered Improvised Explosive Device accessories including explosives, detonating cord, pressure plate, some documents and a locally made weapon from the suspect.

8. In the North Central Region, gallant troops of Operation SAFE HAVEN successfully conducted a raid operation at a bandits’ hideout in Angwan Sarkin Yamma of Mangu LGA of Plateau State on 19 May 2020. The operation led to the recovery of 2 Dane Guns, 6 rounds of 7.62mm Special ammunition and one black military belt.

9. Relatedly, on 19 May 2020, troops of Operation WHIRL STROKE raided a suspected armed bandits’ hideout at Sai in Katsina Ala LGA of Benue State which led to the arrest of one of the key members of Gana militia group named Vandegha Mallika who has been on the wanted list of security agencies for the past 2 years. Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect had participated in several kidnappings, armed robberies, extortions and other forms of banditry activities mostly in Benue State. Furthermore, the suspect recently threatened to assassinate the ruler (Ter) of Katsina Ala and burn his palace over the ruler’s opposition to Gana’s criminal activities.

10. Also, on 19 May 2020, same troops of Operation WHIRL STROKE deployed at Kufai Amadu in Takum LGA and Akate in Donga LGA of Taraba State acting on credible intelligence simultaneously raided 2 separate locations at Vingre along Takum-Wukari Road and arrested 3 suspected kidnappers. The arrested suspects later led troops to a location where they buried arms. Consequently, troops recovered one AK 47 Rifle, 2 AK 47 Rifle magazines, 26 rounds of 7.62mm Special ammunition and one handset.

11. In the South South Region, on 19 May 2020, acting on credible intelligence, troops of 16 Brigade Garrison (Main) deployed in Harry's Town, Rivers State stormed a sea pirates’ hideout at Erisekin. Suspects fled the hideout on sighting the approaching troops’ gunboats. Nevertheless, troops recovered one Pump Action gun, one motorcycle and 2 live cartridges from the sea pirates’ den.

12. Equally, on 17 May 2020, same troops of 16 Brigade Garrison (Main) conducted a cordon and search operation at Bukuma Community. Items recovered during the operation include: one AK 47 Rifle, one Pump Action gun, one Wembley and Scott Pistol, 4 AK 47 Rifle magazines, 2 explosives and 48 rounds of 7.62mm Special ammunition. However, no arrest was made as the suspects abadoned the enclave before arrival of troops.

13. Meanwhile, the Chief of Army Staff, congratulates the gallant troops for their resilience, courage and dedication in the defence of our fatherland against all criminal elements. He further encourages them not to relent until all enemies of our dear nation are defeated.

It is the same everyday Nigerian that walks in the street, soldiering on and making the most of his opportunities. The market woman who goes to the market by 6am, and leaves the market by 8pm.

Not cowards like you that run away when the going gets tough.

Lol. I wouldn't call it a waste. It can fire rockets of multiple calibers and at ranges nearing 300KM. At that kind of range it can stand back and hose down the enemy at leisure. Its range means the fact that it might be road-bound is mostly irrelevant.

I don't really understand what you mean by return fire. It's not like Boko Haram or ISWAP have counter battery radars and rockets on standby to liquidate opposing arty here.

OK. Could you tell us how much those Chinese OPV cost and why perfectly good missiles were destroyed if they indeed were.

Modified: Just checked Wikipedia. It says the ships cost $42 million apiece.

What!? Impossible. That's the price of 50m gunboats. Those Type 56 are 120 m and have 2 versions one is 125 mn and 160 mn USD. Not bad looking at the Sigma 9813 at 175 mn USD.

That contract price must incl sensor package,radars,ordnance and possibly midlife upgrade though am not sure of the last .

Being strictly roadbound what happens when Houthis catch the convoy in a U shaped ambush anchored with a pair of Konkurs ATGMs with several RPGs and multiple GPMGs on the flanks?
Check out the many videos on the net and report back.
It doesn't even mount a 7.62mm!?

If my Memory serves me right a BM21 Grad was briefly captured near Auno in 2019.
The NAF firebombed it the very next morning.
This was the battlefield of Auno where the NAF earned its bones.
On one side of the road were NA troops on the other side were BH.
NAF took out the rats and proceeded to destroy some Bh Vehicles trying to escape one of those was the BM21 Grad Truck.
