I shot 2 eagles last night in there very own cockpit who were ranting like they SUPER.

Taeewo:
I reported some greedy police officer that collected money(bribe) from me to the Assistant Commissioner Of Police @yomishogunle twitter handle by dint of PCRRU, just now i received a call from the Area Commander to come identify the officer involved and assured my money will be refunded even after mentioning the Officer involved.......


Please Nairalander should i proceed or not?

GreenandGold:
He didn't have any more ammo, my bet would be less than 15. He's not carrying anything extra. He's not even wearing protection or tactical gear and for that I would blame his employer.

Leaving his cover was an instict because he knew they'll come for it while he was out, I personally wouldn't judge him for that.. Good training is not useful if he doesn't have the right tools for the job.

The duo in the letter to the US Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, cited the killing of Shi’ites by the army in early 2015 and the accidental bombing of an IDP camp as reasons why the aircrafts should not be sold to Nigeria

Stephandeswardt:
That technic of going to side....used by the armed robber is a classic military technic .....just that it was badly executed,the police would have survived if he maintained his cover,also how fast can he change his magazine and had extra magazines or side arms. .....also those are the 7.62 rounds,can those blocks have stopped the charging rounds; I suggest bank security posts be rebuilt with built proof materials. ...and security post with cctv observation post and armed men....

jteku:
This security man was at vantage position to take out the driver and the passenger @ the back, but he bailed for his life killing one.....I then now thought of how many ammo he had left in his magazine.

In a deal reportedly worth close to $2 billion, India is set to acquire a second AKULA 2 nuclear-powered attack submarine from Russia.

According to Alexei Nikolski, a columnist with the reputed Russian daily Vedomosti, "According to a source in the Russian defence industry, the long discussed lease to transfer a multipurpose Project 971 nuclear submarine to India from the Russian Navy was signed in Goa."

The Indian Navy already operates an AKULA 2 class nuclear submarine, INS Chakra (formerly known as K-152 Nerpa), which was leased from Russia and commissioned on April 4, 2012 after India paid for its completion and sea-trials.

construction is progressing well with India's locally developed and constructed nuclear attack submarine (SSN) speculated to be based on Project 885 Yasen Class nuclear attack submarine, the newest class of submarine to enter Russia's arsenal or French Barracuda class nuclear attack submarine or a combination of the both.

koladebrainiac:
but this picture is fake. this is not the prototype you are lying . u just assumed this

Sunnymatey:
When l read about modern (state of the art) infrastructures being built in far more poorer countries, l ve no choice than to weep for Nigeria

HungerBAD:
This would have been funny.

But looking at it now is making me angry. This RCCG has become a full time business enterprise,and i am yet to see them giving back to the society.

There is an RCCG per every square mile around the World,and they are supposedly winning souls for Christ.

Na which Souls them dey win?i am yet to see one Redeem member that i take serious as a Christian.

patches689:
Meh

Pay peanuts

Get monkeys

Henry240:
MI-17 terminators assault helicopters and any modern armed scout helicopter. I don't see why the army should get a "dedicated" attack helicopter.

There is no rational reason for such a purchase in my opinion. The Air Force already flies Attack Helicopters, why would the army also need them?

Henry240:
Is hardly an attack helicopter, and for 16 million, that's just too expensive.

Henry240:
Taking up a much needed hardpoint that ordinarily should carry another rocket rack.

No Sir, this is not a well thought out helicopter. Instead of this, the army whenever they are ready should go for armed LUH instead.

Henry240:
Where is it's gun?

Nok234:
Z19 right, yes it is lighter, new, good punch... It is more for support to the infantry right ?
If the Army is going for a light aviation corps focus on providing support to the infantry so yes it will be a very good choice

Nok234:
For once the Army is moving,
The NIgerian Army has established the aviation corps, COAS, Lt-Gen Tukur Buratai " We have compiled list of platforms from Russia, American & China origin including simulators & UAVs" "One project that is dear to me is the take off of the Nigerian Army Aviation (corps)..."
Platforms considered :
-Mi-17 (due to its ruggedness, operanility & multirole capability) I personnaly want it because the Air force is using it as well
-Roivavk AH (after witnessing a demonstration in SA on the platforms and its employability) for me yes if maintenance is done at home
-H125 helicopter. For me is the best light utility heli, my only problem with it everybody know...

Let's go my "juju" brother what do you think will best for NA, and choices that they will do

Tinfoil:
The kulbiyow attack video is out. In it you see that the KDF base was completely overrun. As soon as they are engaged KDF soldiers flee and most KIA in flight. Most of the equipment captured is seen in other videos been mounted with A A guns

lionel4power:
Its simply because there's no procurement policies involved, thats why i keep saying i don't think there's a clear master plan in place for our military. To be frank anybody can buy whatever they feel like and dump. I pity the the NA for the day they'll need the spares for all those numerous armored vehicles in their inventory.

Whenever the military does any display all you'll see is just mismatched random systems everywhere with little or no similarity. I keep wondering if they think winning wars is about having a trillion different platforms. two MRAP type is enough, two APC type is enough, Two MBT type is enough, two IFV type is enough its simple common sense, Any way thats Nigeria for you.

Countries already expressing interest on the Armata are China, India, and Algeria.
Russia says export will begin in 2020
And you guys with your "juju of the futur" that never works, tanks Nigeria need tanks more than ever. We all now the moment the T-72 came the war against Boko Haram (that no one predicted ) had change. The Armata is build for the two convetional and unconventional warfare. It will save money to have 2 in 1. Everybody is going for multirole platform it is more cheaper to have something that makes many stuff alone.
Why the Armata because our soldier will be safe, more safe than in a T 90, they will be more motivated.
Like I said Armata is build for almost every scenario, more protection against ATGM, making it very obsolete.
For the export thing Russia will be more than willing if we have a good deal with them. I study geopolitics, and I can tell you with confidence Russia has everything to win and are more than willing to be close friends with us. I can back up evrrything I say with sources. It will take time and we are going to go off topic...

lionel4power:
no 1) the F-15 is on another class on its own and in no way related to our discussuion.
no 20 The Alpha jet can carry about 2500kg of external payload which includes drop tank. a drop tank can weigh about 450L drop tank with 359kg. Alpha jet can either carry two droptank plus two rocket pod or two 250kg bomb plus two rocket pod.

But it can NEVER carry droptank, bombs and rocket pod at the same time.. The picture below would explain better.

lionel4power:
And yet you keep making yourself look more and more d.u.m.b (pardon my french).

No 1) YOUR PICTURE SHOWS TWO ROCKET PODS (Confirming my statement)
No 2) Those other two are just aerodynamic bomb-rack which can only carry four 50kg bomb per wing. (still confirming my earlier statement)

No offence bro but seriously you guys need to take a chill pill on the defender bulls.h.it.
