Whyem15:
Did you read the article? Jake said it could either be a follow up on the earlier order meaning ordering extra 2 with the 4 ordered earlier or an entirely new order.
Either way it is said the new air chief is a fan of drones so we might be seeing more orders sooner or later.

true cos Nigeria placed an order for ten Drones.
8 of the drones have the disclosed.
might be plus 2 CH-4 making it 6

The operatives of the Department of State Security
service, SSS, have reportedly raided a forest camp
belonging to a network of seven armed bandits in
Kaduna State, recovering some sophisticated weapons
during the operation.
According to a report by PRNigeria, the operatives also
arrested some gunrunners and masterminds of some
major abduction, including that of students in Niger,
Kaduna and Zamfara States.
An intelligence source told PRNigeria that security
operatives eliminated some of the armed criminals after
tracking them to a forest camp and engaged them in a
‘deadly’ gun battle at Birnin Gwari axis.
Some of the bandits escaped with gun wounds while
notorious gunrunners were arrested during the
clearance operation.
The source said: “During one of the latest intelligence
operations, the secret service also recovered a general-
purpose machine gun, rocket launcher, a rocket-
propelled grenade, AK 47 rifles and magazines at
Panbeguwa Town, Kubau Local Government Area of
Kaduna State.
“The Arms were being moved by two suspected
gunrunners namely, Idris Isma’il and Rabi’u Nasiru from
Kurra, Barkin Ladi LGA in Plateau State to Birnin Gwari,
Kaduna. One of the gunrunners was shot dead when he
attempted to evade arrest.”
This is coming after a similar seizure in Ebonyi few
weeks when Nigerian security forces bust arms
stockpiles at Effium in Ohaukwu Local Government
Area of the state and recovered similar sophisticated
weapons.
When contacted, the spokesperson of DSS, Peter
Afunanya stated that the Service has even achieved
more operational successes across the country than
the latest one.
He, therefore, assured that the service would continue
to detect and prevent crimes against the internal
security of the country.

ABUJA, Nigeria – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers recently established a permanent presence on the ground in Africa to oversee key U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) projects here. Europe District manages construction in both Europe and Africa and recently relocated a project engineer to Nigeria on a permanent basis to primarily support the construction of new facilities for the A-29 Super Tucano wing at Kainji Airbase. Project Engineer Adewale Adelakun began setting up his office in November 2020 and is now fully in place. “To be there on the continent is a huge step forward in order to deliver high quality construction to our stakeholders,” Adelakun said. While Europe District has supported AFRICOM missions on the continent for years, this move to establish a permanent presence is an important step as the mission’s support and partnership with the Nigerian military grows and includes AFRICOM’s work to promote regional security, stability and prosperity. “We recognize the growing significance our work in Africa has on achieving our national security goals,” said Brig. Gen. Thomas Tickner, USACE North Atlantic Division Commander. “Having a permanent presence on the continent allows us to better leverage our capabilities to support AFRICOM's and the State Department's desired objectives by building partner capacity and sustaining host nation relationships.” Now with the consolidation of U.S. Army Europe and U.S. Army Africa into one command, the placement of a Europe District employee in Africa is more important than ever. “Not only will this move benefit our A-29 project in Nigeria, but it will facilitate efforts on dozens of smaller military and humanitarian projects like schools, clinics, training ranges and more that we deliver to our partners on the continent,” said Europe District Commander Col. Patrick Dagon. Now stationed in Nigeria, Adelakun directly supports the A-29 Super Tucano project, delivering a light attack, combat and reconnaissance aircraft storage facility for the Nigerian Air Force (NAF). The project consists of a $36.1 million contract for facilities to support a dozen A-29 aircraft. The work involves the construction of a new airfield hot cargo pad, perimeter and security fencing, munitions assembly and storage, small arms storage, a flight annex wing building for simulator training, airfield lights, and various airfield apron, parking, hangar and entry control point enhancements. The A-29 project is one of several Europe District has in Africa. While Adelakun is a “forward-deployed” member of the A-29 Project Delivery Team, he is part of a lager Europe District team that oversees construction in Africa in support of various other strategic initiatives, including Humanitarian Assistance, Foreign Military Sales, Counter Narcotics and Trafficking, Building Partnership Capacity, Global Peacekeeping Operations Initiative and more. Current projects under construction within these programs include new primary and secondary schools in Niger, Senegal Benin, Togo and the Nyanga Province that will provide a safe educational environment for thousands of children living in extremely remote areas. Also included is a key boat ramp in Benin that will aid Beninese authorities in the fight against illicit trafficking of narcotics, and multiple vehicle maintenance facilities in Senegal and Chad. Overall, Europe District has nearly 20 active humanitarian assistance construction projects Europe and Africa worth more than $9 million in 10 different countries. Dozens more similar projects are in the planning and scoping phases.

MAIDEN OPERATIONAL VISIT: CAS INSPECTS ONGOING PROJECTS IN KAINJI, GOMBE SAYS LOCATIONS READY TO RECEIVE SUPER TUCANO, UAVs ON SCHEDULE The Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Vice Marshal (AVM) Oladayo Amao, has commended the pace of work on ongoing infrastructural development projects at the 407 Air Combat Training Group (407 ACTG), Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Base Kainji, Niger State, which are being emplaced to accommodate the 12 x A-29 Super Tucano aircraft when they arrive Nigeria. The CAS equally expressed some degree of satisfaction with the progress of work on ongoing projects at the 109 Combat Reconnaissance Group (109 CRG, formerly known as 203 CRG) NAF Gombe, which is to serve as the Base for the Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles (UCAVs) ordered by the Federal Government from China. AVM Amao made these known today, 3 March 2021, while on his maiden operational visit to the NAF Bases in Kainji and Gombe. Speaking after the inspection/assessment tour of projects in Kainji, which include the ongoing construction of 3 blocks of 10 single-bedroom Single Officers’ Quarters (SOQ), one block of 6 x three-bedroom Married Officers’ Quarters (MOQ) as well as a block of 30 x single-bedroom Transit Accommodation for Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs), AVM Amao expressed delight at the commendable pace of work. The CAS, who also inspected work on the arming bays, apron and other projects being executed by contractors assigned by the United States Government, stated that it was very clear that all was being done to ensure that virtually all the infrastructure required to accommodate the Super Tucano aircraft would be in place prior to their arrival by the middle of 2021. Before departing Kainji, the CAS held an interactive session with the officers, airmen and airwomen, where he urged them to remain disciplined and unwavering in their commitment to duty. He also advised them to always be security conscious whilst contributing their quota towards ensuring that the NAF ‘enhances and sustains critical airpower capabilities required for joint force employment in pursuit of national security imperatives. The CAS also entertained questions and received feedback as well as suggestions from the personnel on how to move the Service forward for more effective and efficient service delivery. In Gombe, the CAS was received on arrival by the Deputy Governor of the State, Dr Manasseh Daniel Jatau, and the Secretary to the State Government, Professor Ibrahim Abubakar Njodi, amongst other State Government Officials; after which he proceeded to inspect ongoing infrastructural development at 109 CRG, including the Taxiways, Apron, Aircraft Shelters, Bulk Fuel Installation (BFI), Ammunition Dump, Access Roads as well as Office and Residential Accommodations. Speaking after the inspection of the facilities, the CAS, while thanking the Gombe State Government for not only allocating the 230 Hectares and providing other forms of support towards the speedy establishment of 109 CRG, noted that much still needed to be done to make the Base ready to receive the UCAVs, which he said would soon be arriving the Country. He remarked that, aside the currently completed and other ongoing projects, there was need for the NAF and Gombe State Government to jointly work towards connecting the Base to the national grid whilst also commencing work on the construction of the access road to the Base. In his remarks, the Gombe State Deputy Governor, Dr Manasseh Jatau, expressed extreme delight at the speed at which the NAF was developing facilities at NAF Base Gombe, remarking that it was nothing short of extraordinary. He equally expressed appreciation to the NAF for the medical outreach conducted for host communities in the Akko-Gona Emirate area of the State in October 2020, barely 2 months after the establishment and groundbreaking ceremony of the NAF Unit. He noted that the outreach benefitted members of the affected communities immensely and pledged that the State Government, on its part, would continue to do its best to support the NAF towards the ultimate goal of improving security in the State and indeed the entire North East. The CAS, who was accompanied on the visit by some Branch Chiefs and Directors from Headquarters NAF, has returned to Abuja.
