Meanwhile, Dan Ali told state house correspondents that top on the agenda of the three hours meeting with Buhari was the stringent conditions imposed by the United States government for the sale of 12 Super Tucano A29 planes and other weapons to Nigeria at the rate of $495 million.
He said US has insisted that payment must be made by February 20, 2018, and that the aircraft can only be available in 2020.
Dan Ali also said that the US government had asked Nigeria not to send its personnel to understudy the production process of the aircraft as Nigeria did done in the case of other countries.
“The contract include cost which is $494 million to acquire the Super Tucano A29 plans as well as training, where the facilities will be accommodated and continuous servicing among others,” he said.
“Some of the stringent measures include that we will start having them from 2020, which is two years from now. They are also thinking of not allowing our technicians to be part of the production inspection. But this is what we normally do in all the defence contracts, we send our personnel to go and understudy especially when it comes to specialized aircrafts like in Russia, our personnel are permanently based in where the production is being done for this MI35 helicopters.”
The minister said the council has approved that the officials of his ministry meet with the US ambassador to Nigeria, Stuart Symington, to iron out the contending issues. |

jakeporeshenko: pic 1, in 2016 4.914 billion in 2017 total allocation 4.79 billion 2018 proposed 4.94 billion thats aprox 5 billion Naira year in year out, several capital projects (APC assembly plant, beryl M762 rifle assembly plant) still existing only on paper.
I mean if you convert that money into USD I guess its not a lot so Federal government should quit being stingy and fund DICON with real money or sell it. DICON has nothing to show with the previous billions. Yes the money isn't that much but then when you have nothing to show from billions you've been eating and you're not generating enough revenue then how will the government be impressed in funding them. |

gboye1999: Great design yes. Just some questions if you have more details about the vehicle. Are all doors and windows armored or it's engine protection and the rear casement protected?
Isnt it possible to have the back seat windows with similar holes you have at the passenger front seat? Or you think its not necessary? Toyota hilux being used in the north east are armored. An AFSF once wrote a post on how it saved them during an intense battle with bokoharam where he claimed they (BHT) used human shield. You mean the tint hole? |

Apart from having a good and strong military, action speaks louder than words.
Sorry to say, both seems absent in the Nigerian military of today. A country of 186 million should have a formidable military. The excuse of no money has been pissing me off. Billions of dollars get missing yearly so what's the big deal if you just fund the military by any means you can.
Imagine S300, Chinese HQ SAMS Covering every single place an aircraft can come in from through Chad and Cameroon and then equip the damn airforce with flankers.
Once you see a nice evidence against Chad again, perform a surgical strike on his military assets. You can only do this with a good military might which will give France a run for her money. |

lionel4power: African Military leaders should adopt digital technology to enhance combat capabilities
Digital technologies are a powerful tools to enhance military warfighting capabilities and preparing for a future driven by data, autonomous systems and immersive technology.
Most African military forces view digital technology as a luxury for advanced or wealthy nations; others see it as an opportunity. To fully stay in step with the growing and constantly changing world, employing digital technology early is an opportunity to boost the potential for efficiency and battlefield effectiveness. South frica has played a major role in pioneering battlefield digital technological revolutions in Africa and the world.
The use of digital technologies comes from the determination to push back the boundaries of the possible — not only to prepare for the FUTURE but to solve very real problems today. The key technologies to take the front-burner in future warfare includes;
. Artificial Intelligence . Big Data . Cyber-security and Warfare . Battlefield Network Connectivity

https://www.africanmilitaryblog.com/2018/01/african-military-leaders-should-adopt.html?m=1 I admire this. Let me ask a question, if you posses a good technological capability, how do you get it accross to the right organizations. These guys seems too busy or what so ever to wabt to listen or even reply messages. I have a guy who has been sending series of emails to MOD, etc but no response until I had to help send him one through an established connection already. These guys need to start paying attention and take Nigerians to be serious. Artificial intelligence is something I admire. I currently have guys who are into it but I have never made use of it except the facial recognition part. I will send you a mail now. |

patches689: Indeed it does.
Considering 1 Sergeant usually = 1 platoon, and the Nigerian army is modelled on the British Army so a platoon is 24 that puts the number at around 8900 in the NE. This is of course assuming that every sergeant is in a rifle platoon I'm not talking about platoon. Obviously, when the COAS says I have deployed 10,000 men deployed in south east, he's not talking in platoon. That one belongs to people who knows about it. So 10,000 men = 20,000 legs in south south therefore x2= 40,000 legs and 20,000 human being fighting Bokowenger  |

Donharrie: Google is tracking people’s phones even when they turn off location services and remove their Sim card....
Source - https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/google-admits-tracking-your-phone-even-if-sim-card-removed-kghbwc7tj
The above is google using cloud networks, tell me if Google can do this. What stops the Almighty network operators?
The operators that made it possible for you to reach out to people using waves across the globe, you say cannot track you? Take a trip to where mobile SIM cards are fixed, its private and I'm very sure you won't be allowed access.
I think I'm done responding to gullible minds. I bet you Dont know 10% of the technology that made mobile communications.
I've sensed a lot of thieves and kidnappers are scared and stepping on my toes to reveal secrets publicly. But never.
If you need a number tracked down. Send me a mail and we shall track it down successfully. Insha Allah Mobile operators can't track your phone to 90% rate. Law enforcement agencies rely on them to track incoming calls and it's not accurate. The link you says they've been recording the mast location. That's not a big deal as that's what law enforcement agencies make use. You can track a phone with a mast at ikeja but you can't get the phone exact location true triangulation. It doesn't justify your above technology as it's illogical. Here's how the US police E911 works. When 9-1-1 is called from a cell phone, the location initially displayed is the cell tower that is being "hit", not the caller's location. This is because the cell tower location is initially the most reliable information available.If the cell phone has a GPS (that may or may not be able to transmit location) the 9-1-1 dispatcher performs what is called a "re-bid"; they reach out through the 9-1-1 trunk to the cell tower, then to the cell phone. If GPS is working, it will transmit the caller's location data.Location accuracy for GPS from a cell phone has a wide variance depending on how new or old the cellphone is, the cell company capability, geographical challenges, etc. It will give X Y coordinates but not elevation. If you call 9-1-1 on a cell phone from a ten story building, location of the building may be relayed, but not the floor. |

You can't track the exact location of a cell phone number at a 100% rate. As a certified cyber and electronic warfare specialist, I can guarantee you that even access to communication satellite cannot guarantee you a 100% location rate. ESM (electronic support measure) same technology being designed for military can't even establish you a 100% location. Your software package seems much like a joke to me. Using a local method by triangulating the phone number with 2 major mobile universal hack networks and monitor the meeting points of the radius between the closest cell phone towers via GPRS signals, we can track the exact location of any phone number. This works 100% of the time. Cell phones do not connect to the nearest cell tower so it's useless. Cell phones are designed to connect to the tower with the strongest signal and not the closest. Triangulation will never give you a 60% rate. The same triangulation being used by police to track distressed call location doesn't give 90% rate. |
