I'm very open when I disagree with you for talking nonsense, e.g stop making sh1t up. But this time I'm honestly just talking from a point of genuine concern.

Any 3rd year mechanical engineering student is meant to be well versed in using CAD. At most universities it is a mandatory part of the course. By 4th year level they are meant to be able to produce drawings that can be sent to any manufacturer in the world. Their models must be at a standard that can be directly uploaded into F.E.A software to analyse forces & deformations.

Just say bad CAD skills. Just like the Airbus Beluga, ugly aircraft but it's serving it's purpose.

If a CAD design of this aircraft is being uploaded into FEA to analyse, result will show alot of deformations but those guys at Airbus won't agree.

Is igirigi serving it's purpose effectively? yes

It's a nice rehearsal video, but short.

Did you see that at least one of the ATR-42 is spotting a new Camo?

I saw it. The man said light transport aircraft. Hope we're not using them for transport?

The transmission has ended, I'm waiting for photos now.

I particularly enjoyed the Tigers and the L-39za team. Great display of professionalism from the Air Force.

16 aircrafts participated in total.

Thee Pilot with the call sign Beast must be a badass.

The Nigerian army needs an air wing. This BHT should be a war with a specific date aimed at ending terrorism.

Be ready to deploy air assets when needed. Just look at US operations in the Middle East. The stolen Radio is a bad thing. sad

just read a Nigerian military base was overran my question is why can't the EE-9, panhard AML and ERC-90 be upgraded and used for base defense.

Overran and taken over back. We lost 3 streit APC. HF radio and other weapons. Those streit APC are well armed and that is a very big loss on its own.
Over 200 BHT and the attack went on for over 1 hour. What happened to the tactical air command? 1 hour is enough to scramble F-7, ALPHA JETS, MI-17 or MI-24. They would have destroyed the streit or either force BHT out the vehicles, leaving them to run.

Over 200BHT, we could have had at least 50 kills if we had air assets deployed immediately.

Exactly my point.

No one would transfer that kind of technology to Nigeria, it's not a strategic country so they'll have to do it on their own which may take plenty of resources they don't currently have.

This post shows 80% of your posts here are rubbish. I probably did not notice it because I had zero knowledge about them.

I may not be a an expert in space topics but Aero and space share some knowledge so I can talk on some points.
Chkl2 point is that Nigeria can't do it 100% on her own and not that she's not capable of doing it at all.

Nigeria is not 10 years behind propulsion. Elemu oshi.

I should have said it in layman's term, you're in a league of amateurs when it comes to rocket tech.

[s]You don't have the knowledge and the money to launch into space. If you had to use your own resources it would take roughly decades to get to where South Africa's propulsion technology is today. [/s]

Ahmmm

10 years is rather a pie in the sky. When the South Africans had a rocket program in the 80s and early 90s, it involved about 70 companies and about 1300 highly skilled engineers. This is one great engineering fleet that takes some serious funding and skills.

[s]Testing propulsion technology at this day-in-age puts you at least 45 years behind South Africa today.[/s]

BS! On ordinary propulsion technology? Abeg tell that to someone who has no knowledge about what you're saying.

45 years behind on ordinary propulsion technology? I'm sure you have no first hand knowledge on propulsion for you to type this.

Was searching for that speech

Do you have more about that ISOUNSAT that I showed u some tym back?

Indigenous satellite

“The Centre for Satellite Technology Development, CSTD is the key entity behind the much revered achievements of Nigeria’s pet projects to harness its indigenous capacity for satellite technology-building, launching, telemetry, tracking and control of all satellites such as Earth Observation, Communication, Weather, and Scientific Research.” CSTD is Nigeria’s platform that is projecting these activities on the same latitude.

Under the leadership of Dr Spencer Onuh, the Centre has set for itself the target of building an indigenous satellite by 2018. Key to this goal is the current development of an indigenous ‘work in progress’ satellite called Isounsat-1, a Pico satellite, weighing less than 1Kg, for observation of NASRDA space asset, observation of near Earth Object (Debris), and in-house capacity building. The satellite, named after Nigeria’s one time Minister of Science and Technology, Prof. Turner Isoun is expected to be first ever satellite designed and launch in Nigeria.

In addition, Platform for High Altitude Sensors (simply put as PHASE MISSION), is yet another space project initiated to uplift the Nigeria’s space programme. Phase mission is a Balloon project for atmospheric measurement such as temperature, humidity, pressure and other atmospheric parameters thereby boosting the Nigeria’s weather forecasting capacities. Some other innovations are satellites weighing between 1kg-10kg such as Nano satellite, Microsatellite, CubeSat satellite.

My friend 10 years is an utter and complete dream land for Nigeria. Where do you think "it's not rocket science" comes from....it's possibly the most challenging form of engineering.

SA launched rockets travelling over 1200km in the early 90's. Even if all drawings and technical data is removed from storage tomorrow, it would take at least 10 years to launch again. But anyways...that's not to say Nigeria musnt continue with whatever it has going.

10 years I think was hyped except you'll bring in the Chinese come and do the stuffs in Nigeria. I found a link from CNN where the Nigerian minister of science and technology claimed 2030.

The Director, Centre for Satellite Technology Development (CSTD), Dr. Spencer Onu, has assured stakeholders that Nigeria will develop an indigenous space shuttle satellite by 2030.
According to him, the components needed for the development of the satellite are presently being developed, adding that scientists and engineers at the Centre have capacity to launch made in Nigeria satellite from Nigeria in 2030.

The Nigerian space agency claims to have trained 300 staff to PhD or BsC level, and has ambitious plans to expand the industry, and encourage space programs across the continent.

"The space program is very important," said Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu, Minister of Science and Technology, during a speech in the capital city Abuja. "Space is a major asset that Nigeria must be involved in for the purpose of protecting national interests."

2030 seems to be a nice target. You do not know what Nigeria is doing. Most of our projects are not being publicize like SA. Nigeria space tech has gone far and you can't be too sure of her current capability .
