LTGEN:
This is the image of a C-17 GLOBEMASTER III. I don't mean to offend
but what is it doing in ABUJA or is this a photo-shopped picture?

jakeporeshenko:
It appears DSS has taken over security of the National Assembly
Literally! Is there a thing police can do right in this country ?

SternProphet:
DO 128 should be retired or in storage now. Some DO 228 are operational. Nigeria should revamp all DO 228, the Germans might even do it for free

bidex111:
Recently transfered...

bidex111:
The Dornier 228; 5 in numbers.

Am not sure if all are air-worthy.

Josfactz:
is that mig21 behind

jakeporeshenko:
Exactly the only thing that actually matters at the end of the day is results. The CH-5 is much more capable with a larger payload and longer endurance, probably carries more advanced and accurate missiles too.

newafricaken254:
it seems boko haram mobility isn't unhindered considering its use of technicals during the attack,especially in daylight

Odunayaw:
I normally would expect DIA assets to be scattered along the tri-border of Niger,Chad & Ngr
Furthermore,There are indications some pockets of areas within the AOR has terrorist presence/activity (the Army is just so stretched). But I tell you, this war won't be won until some/all those affected (especially the common man) contribute to the war effort

bidex111:
The pictures where seeing are just screen grab. According to the twitter handle, it says BHT carting away on military equipments and dead soldiers littered the ground in the 7mins video.

Let's wait till the video hi made available.

Henry240:
Look at his patch.

Henry240:
No, these guys are Rangers from the army's 72 special forces brigade.

He's only posing with a Navy X-95. They provided normal security duties.

Navy SBS played the strategic role, Air Force QRF guarded our planes and helicopters, while regular infantry patrolled the streets.

bidex111:
Note not all NAF personnel on Gambia soil where all SF.
There are other branch of the military present there .

Remember some of our military personnel where with shiny Ak's and some with Tavor X95 attached to secure some Gambia dignitaries.

I don't know if you see those pictures back then, those X95 where actually NAF QRF.

tdayof:
Since you are all talking about sf, what can you classify the air assault group deployed to Gambia as?

Xbee007:
The lady reporter was the source of Trump's mistake. She erroneously referred to Super Tucano as an helicopter. Trump instead of correcting her error went on to brag about their "world best helicopter".

Odunayaw:
I refuse to be excited YET
But wait, Yahbon flash 20 have armed variant?

bidex111:
Okay.

Since you've seen it, am basking right now...

bidex111:
So have you gotten any material/picture confirming these source.

I'll be glad if it's the armed version.

Xbee007:

Good luck bro.

Henry240:
Source?

jakeporeshenko:
only if NAF could fast track super Tucano delivery to 2019 and not that 2020 US government is barking up and down.

YorubaAssasin:
How many of these procured blah blah have been effectively utilized to stop the terrorism in the nation?

martyns303:
who paid for them?

Drnice2:
Imagine, only two? Have you stopped buying from US or is it because the Senate questioned the Treasury? Again, you bought it to combat evil yet you wana take it to Kaduna for induction & maybe after the killings might have wiped out Benue Residents, you will then fly them like a Projectile-Sport to Benue? Please, can someone tell these Nigerians that they reason counter-clockwise.

bidex111:
Good news...


@xbee007 the link his not working. It's the Mi17 I wish to see.

Please keep us updated
