andrewza:
what you think a F7 is?

I am talking about we doing reverse enginering and not some Chinese stuff.

Henry240:
The Centenary and Unity each cost around $90 million per vessel.

Damn That's alot. Stealth isn't cheap.

I bet if it was manufactured locally we could have cut cost. wish NESL has such capability.

Henry240:
The MIGs are to be transferred to the Air Force museum in Abuja, when that is completed. They aren't operational, hence the requirement to get the F-7s in 2003, which were meant as a stop-gap measure until a suitable multi-role fighter jet could be purchased.

I think we should do some reverse engineering than this museum things.
Thanks for the information tho.

Henry240:
Nigerian Air Force base.

MI-24V, Alpha jet, MIG-21 and F-7NI

Are those Mig operational?

Henry240:
NNS Karaduwa should cost the navy around $350 - 500, 000.

Thanks. Any idea on centenary price tag?

ssaengine:
You came to this thread late my friend. Been here for years and provided proof ages ago. Yes you do need lectures if that looks like a 10 week job to you. Bsc Mechanical Engineering Wits University, deal with it and move on.

Which matters, when I joined the cliq of engineers or what I know and am capable of already?

Sorry but what you typed is not an excuse.

This is a cool thread, so let concentrate on the topic.

ssaengine:
[s]I am employed by the sister company that developed this "10 week truck", hence i do indeed know better. Stick to accounting as i said. [/s]

Employed to the financial dept may be. Working at BMW doesn't make someone an automobile or mechanical engineer.
......and please I don't need lectures on Manufacturing engineering. I have participated in a lot.

ssaengine:
Then you never have and never will be an engineer. Stick to accounting or whatever it is you do.

Boring write up. Go into engineering you will know better.

Take note 10 weeks is 2months and two weeks. Then look at the picture again.

patches689:
The big deal is the ability to combine existing technology quickly and efficiently to create a new product.

10 weeks is fast, very fast.

ten weeks isn't a big deal with what I am seeing up there.

patches689:
Designed and built in 10 weeks

This is why we are one of the global giants of defence manufacture...

Using existing technology. So I see no big deal.

Someone won't be invited by EFCC. The next thing he will see is him be declared on pages on Newspapers wanted...

learn to read.

Odunayaw:
DICON help us modernize dz rifles with polymer/fiber glass and rails na!

The issue with Nigeria. We have got raw materials fiber etc that can be used but I think what the government wants to know is so far it can release bullets

rawswag:
Nigerian police

@odunayaw noticed the Mobile squad?

pacretus:
Good to know they're still active.but in benin i don't see them often.

There should be. There is MOPOL 5 Squadron in Benin.

Henry240:
Personally, i hold a different view. The army is still significantly under-resourced for our size. On paper it seems we have a lot, however resources are stretched. We would lose every battle if we decide to fight like the Americans, Europeans or Russians. Air-support simply cannot always be available.

The Air Force is due to receive 15 MI-35M helicopters, when we add that to the numbers already available, that's quite significant. They also got assault helicopters in MI-17terminator1SH with more coming, 3 units of JF-17 also only represents a start up haul, we don't yet know how many were signed up for, Yahbon Flash 20 UAVs are also coming in for the air force. NNPC also donated between 6 - 10 units of LUH to them. Although you haven't verified, and there also isn't any public verification available, C-130s in long term storage are about to be reactivated.


No military can have it all, but a certain level of effectiveness can be achieved. The army is in dire need of IFVs to complement tanks, also we require additional howitzers, MLRS, APCs and helicopters.


The Navy should be a main priority, we require everything from Frigates to Inshore patrol crafts. There are over 3,000 creeks and inland waterways in Nigeria. We need additional Midshore patrol vessels such as NNS Karaduwa class, logistics ships, hydrographic ships, atleat 2 Corvettes and 1 Frigate.

How much does andoni-karaduwa class cost the Nigerian navy locally? ...any price idea if it was manufactured by a foreign company? How many can NESL produce in three years?

donhils:
Read well b4 quoting me. I said Iphone 7s not iphone 7. Apple releases the number 1st (like iPhones 4, 5, 6), then a year later they'll release the s (like 4s,5s,6s).

Oh thanks.

donhils:
Obviously these guys haven't noticed that this is iFong 7s Plus not iphone 7s plus as they erroneously thought. Of course iphone 7s is not yet out.

IPhone 7 is out. A friend got one.

Odunayaw:
lol..once upon a tym...my dream was to b a cadet and teach those mofos lesson
I hope there is a plan to rid regulars of carrying AKs...pistols from DICON would do just fine

Lol I know how you feel. My Dad himself has been harassed by those men in blacks even as a senior officer in the NPF. Immediately they get to know who he is they change their tune.

I'll definitely join the NAF. I hope they are more advance by the time I am ready.

Baby coming in to land. Flaps down.

Odunayaw:
I know skynet
but seriously dos ones roaming about with dane-Ak47 always give me the creeps

Yea those with dane-Ak 47 seems funny. They are the once always mounting illegal checkpoint.

Odunayaw:
active and shabbily dressed
infact I don't know why de roam about

Lol they are mostly Deployed in some UNIT. My dad works under the mobile division of NPF. They are mostly deployed on serious issues.

You should know skynet squad Ibadan. 90% of officers under skynet are Mobile and since you Stay at IB you should know there's a mobile command inside Eleyele state HQ.
Their hilux are mostly painted red and black and are equipped with BTR armoured vehicles. I once experienced a case like three to four years ago where a fake bullion van was made to put up a faulty issue then was made to park by the road and then surrounded with well armed Mobile police with various arms.

Don't ask me how I got to know the bullion van was empty


The ones who roam about are the normal police lol

pacretus:
exactly!!i wonder what the duties of the police are in nigeria,i hardly see the mobile police unit(mopol)these days.hope something Really good comes out of the defence review.

Mobile police are very active than the random ones. Probably their pictures are not really out.

Odunayaw:

Oh Thanks man. Used to think the railgun has been deployed on the DDG-1000.

oga sir..check ur fb inbox

Hy bro, Found nothing.

Op after all this Bullshit, how much did it add to your bank account? Did it put any food on your table? NO! However, you got something I'll call temporary happiness. You now feel like a king while your life still remains the same.

Mr man go and change your mindset because no-one gives a damn about all this internet shiit. You may feel the joy here online with various likes and shares but it won't stop you from soaking Garri again this morning.

It's high time you all stopped this meaningless tribalistic activities.

This is above science. When they say he's a mighty God,the great I am. You all think it was a joke?

Odunayaw:
oga sir..check ur fb inbox

I will ASAP. sorry about the delay.

Kudos to our gallant officers.
