Boko Haram militants stage attacks in northern Cameroon
(Reuters) - Some 1,000 suspected Boko Haram fighters from Nigeria attacked five towns in northern Cameroon over the weekend and briefly occupied a military camp on Sunday before being removed by the air force, an army spokesman said.
The heavily armed group attacked the military camp in Achigachia near the Nigerian border at around 4 a.m.. Following an intense battle, the army abandoned the camp, Lieutenant Colonel Didier Badjeck told Reuters by phone. Or
A command post of the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) located at Damboré (Nigeria) occupied by Cameroonian soldiers, was attacked in the night yesterday Thursday, 21 July 2016 by members of Boko Haram. Last Sunday, Boko Haram had attacked (MNJTF)comand post in Kamouna (Cameroon), wounding a soldier and carrying away some arms and ammunition
Mr, after the our previous administration, there hasn't been any issue of the Nigerian military fleeing their camp. The war against bokoharan is politically motivated. Most news of our military leaving their base comes either because they ran out of ammunitions, no reinforcement or being outnumbered. Even during ambush on our military posts, the Nigerian military engage bht successfully. The question here should be how does BHT still coordinates cross border attack after the MNJTF instead of that dude above saying some damn Shiit.
Bokoharam is politically motivated in Nigeria hence some hinderance in winning the war at the beginning while it's an external aggression and your own government was willing to provide your military with everything it needs to fight BHT.
Difference can be seen now as the NAF responds to attack on own ground troops when needed.
Conclusion: Nigerian military still remains a formidable military with presence in over 5 African countries. We also have the NPF deployed outside Nigerian territory. Any external aggression by a neighboring country will be treated aggressively.
nemesis2u: dont u know intel orgs hires hacker groups within their countries to do the same. imagine 10 year kids waging wars these r generally low tech cyber warfare targeting hostile public assets.
a self declared cyber warfare organization in the public domain is a very bad idea , its actually suicide , every cyber crime would be plastered on u in no time
what u can have is a private cyber security organization, with a undeclared cyber offensive capability. this capability will be restricted to select members with restricted / regulated rules of engagement so that u dont step on the wrong toes .
hacking is simply not about software , it encompasses corresponding hardware capability , getting into military grade networks is very tough given the multiple of encryption levels and blackholes encountered.
without exposure to friendly military networks and familiarity with them it will be difficult to mount an intrusion ops.
also capability to hide tracks is important , generally not possible without access to military comms etc.
Exactly what I'm talking about. capability to conduct intelligence on ones own. I feel this with need the NSA approval but that shouldn't be a big deal in country like NG. What's your idea about it in a country like Nigeria?
jakeporeshenko: Perfect! Thanks for your help, one last question thought, will NigercomSat or any future satellite missions be involved in this development. And does this individual Tiller Cyrus plan to accomplish this on his own or does he have a team/ organization of some sort.
Sorry for the late reply. Yes the present one works with nigercomsat. It'd visible in the below pics.
jakeporeshenko: You seem to know a lot about this network centric stuff, can you give me a quick rundown on military applications for this GIS system being developed for the armed forces, Only time I ever used GIS was when I did geography in college.
Military forces use GIS in a variety of applications including cartography, intelligence, battle field management, terrain analysis, remote sensing, military installation management and monitoring of possible terrorist activity. The Nigeria own is based on terrain analysis, battlefield management and others. You can see it in the picture attached to this post.
GIS in military application does C4I2 (Command, Control, Communication, Coordination, Information and Interoperability.)
Maintaining battle records, command, control, and communications, situation mapping, range management, range control systems, geographical Information (DGI) management and air space management are all under GSI for the military.
The Nigeria own will also be making use of troposcatter communications, SATCOM and deploys on 4G LTE. It's actually running on QT ( Quantum transducers) so this means we need to worry less about signal drop.
To sustain the technology, the guy in charge said the CDS is working on its commercial aspect .
LTGEN: Thanks for sharing.Knowledge and applications of GIS system will shape the current battles to come.It is in the best interests of Senior Army and Airforce officers to understand the Military applications attached to it.
LTGEN: This information comes from the budget , I cautiously said the declassified version. However there are somethings in there whether it be the Army, Airforce or Navy that cannot be Ignored. The Beryl Rifle, is one example. The allocation to the GIS systems is an eye opener as this is relatively new.The NAF were the first to be trained by the French on this. Other things l deliberately left out, but I read it and in some instances I was surprised. In the months to come we shall see.The Devil they say is in the details/implementation.
BAE hits milestone with new F-15 electronic warfare system
With the completion of a Critical Design Review in February by Boeing, BAE Systems' Eagle Passive/Active Warning Survivability System, or EPAWSS, is one step closer to be deployed on the F-15 Eagle fighter plane.
The EPAWSS serves as an upgrades for the Digital Electronic Warfare System, or DEWS, which was released in 2008, and is part of an effort to modernize the F-15 and keep it in service for several more decades, the company announced on Tuesday.
"The EPAWSS Critical Design Review is an important step toward providing our F-15 air crew with a world class defensive and jamming system that will bring them home safely," Col. Tim Baily, F-15 program manager for the U.S. Air Force, said in a press release. "Hats off to Boeing and BAE Systems for the impressive work that went into these reviews. Their efforts provide the foundation required to rapidly deliver this capability to the field."
The EPAWSS is an advanced electronic warfare suite meant to analyze and jam enemy radars and missiles. In particular, it is meant to help counter enemy jamming and air-defense systems and help detect and counter enemy radar.
The system completed its CDR in February, which followed a successful test of the overall warfare suite installed by BAE at the end of 2016.
"Our entire team is driven by the importance of providing this enhanced EW technology to our warfighters in a timely manner," said Brian Walters, vice president and general manager of electronic combat solutions at BAE. "EPAWSS provides a critical capability, and it is our mission to provide this capability on or ahead of schedule."
