Hello everyone, so something funny happened today:
So Rex doesn’t bark if I walk in with a stranger they can even play if I’m there but as soon as Ieave, it’s you and him.
So Today my Cousin came to the house and as usual Rex was all friend cause I was outside with them and there were playing(in my mind I was like see security dog o) so after every they went inside and I stepped out of the house with a friend only to come back and hear that the same cousin was lightly mauled by Rex(Rex tore his cloth) and it was my younger brother that rescued him....honestly I laughed

Also I’ve been having issues posting pictures of Bailey

perhaps your cousin was afraid when Rex wanted to play rough play with him...Rex smelled fear and wanted to take advantage..
I've had such experience with a Dog I knew right from 2months.A GSD that grew under my care.The incident almost got my leg amputated.if not for God.i was rescued by a Caucasian(RIP) she's Dead now.we lost her to parvo,Along side her pups....

PJSC “AutoKrAZ” Announces Strategic Partnership with Nigerian Proforce Limited
17 December, 2019
PJSC “AutoKrAZ” Announces Strategic Partnership with Nigerian Proforce Limited
PJSC AUTOKRAZ, the largest Ukrainian producer of heavy-duty vehicles has signed a strategic partnership agreement with Proforce Limited, a total defence solution provider to jointly assemble military and civilian grade KrAZ trucks in Nigeria.

The multiple collaboration agreement between PJSC “AutoKrAZ” and Proforce Limited Company will see the manufacture of heavy-duty off road trucks, under the brand KRAZ-PROFORCE. These vehicles will be produced to highest international standards of quality and customer’s needs for both civil and military markets.

We believe there are many synergies between our companies that can be leveraged to build powerful industrial capability that Nigeria requires.

Over the next 12 months, the Partnership will roll out world standard trucks that are tailored to suit the Nigerian and African markets. This joint venture will impact the economy of Nigeria by creating new jobs, at the same time contributing to the technological development of the country.

seeing at least 2.

yep.

slimthugchimee2:
I am just glad they are making

this is one of the two barge... Pretty right!?

nemesis8u:
Tracon is for civilian radar coverage isn't it under NAMA ?

Tracon OEM is France Thales isn't it ?

The TRACON project is both for civilian and military.The Nigeria air Force Tin shield radar is integrated with other civilian Radar For Total Radar coverage over Nigeria (TRACON)

Algerian2:
France have airbases in Niamey and N'djamena with rafales, mirage , reapers , and even K135 tanker . check distance from the map . without refueling they can strike any thing they want in nigeria and maybe undetected when you see the radars and air defense of nigeria

. with penetration configuration(3t bombs , 4MIKA) , the rafale have 1056 km combat radius ,for air air config its 1759 km .

so from niamey and N'djamenna they can strike any thing in nigeria withiut sending there aircraft carrier or NATO armada .

.

Nigeria may not have adequate air defense systems but in terms of Radar coverage we have what we call.TRACON(Total radar coverage over Nigeria) So France will be detected once into Nigeria airspace.We can respond from Tactical air command Markudi using the F7 Which is faster than the mirage..

Naval barge... Currently under construction at Naval dockyard Lagos..
Our own version of a Replenishment vessel

Jimi24:
There is no fake JF17. JF17B is a two seater version that was not originally planned for. I believe customers (primarily Nigeria) suggested that it might be a good idea for training. There was an attempt to fit AESA radar into the nose cone of JF17B at some point.

The JF 17 Block 3 airframe is going to be bigger than Block 2. Whoever is seeing the same aircraft is misinformed.
AESA radar is bigger, needs more cooking power. The radar can track more aircraft, see further and engage more aircraft simultaneously. It is also harder to jam.

the block 3 uses the new RD33W engine...It features similar technologies with the j10 and j20..

slimthugchimee2:
Sdb3?

nope there's no latest pic yet of SDB3 this is for supply of fresh water and fuel to our naval warships in the sea.. More of a Replenishment vessel..

Exploring innovative potentials in Nigeria Army
December 25, 2019 Editorial IV 0





Buratai




A lot of innovations have emanated from the military authorities’ research and development initiative in line with the desire of the Nigeria Army to enhance its operational effectiveness through research and development.
This is a far cry from the narratives in the past bothering on over reliance on foreign initiatives and armaments before the military could prosecute any battle be it local or outside the country.
This is also part of the vision of the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buratai, to have a professionally responsive Nigeria Army in the discharge of its constitutional roles.
In response to these needs, the army signed a partnership agreement with the Defence Industries Cooperation of Nigeria (DICON) not too long ago to collaborate with the Command Engineering Depot (CED) Kaduna for the mass production of vehicles for the military’s counter insurgency and other operations across the country especially with the spare of insecurity challenges in the form of insurgency, kidnapping, banditry, armed robbery and criminal tendencies all over the place.
More so, the partnership agreement was in furtherance of the government’s effort to reduce reliance on foreign countries to acquire the needed equipment for its operations towards addressing the prevailing security challenges.


DICON was established by an Act of Parliament in 1964 to produce weapons and other equipment for the nation’s armed forces and reduces reliance on foreign suppliers. This was around the same time similar institution was established in Brazil whose own had been functional since then.
It is also charged to develop the local capacity of the officers and men to collaborate with its strategic partners to produce research outcomes that would lead to local production of military hardwares within the country.
In the last one month, one of the results of such effort is the successful fabrication and production of indigenous Mines Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles nicknamed EZUGWU MRAP which is made up of over 70 per cent local resources and 100 per cent fabricated by local engineers.
At the opening of the 2019 Chief of Army Staff Annual Conference on December 3, President Muhammadu Buhari unveiled the first set of Ezugwu MRAP vehicle, named in honour of Major-General Victor Ezugwu for his performance against insurgents in the North-east region.
The features of the Ezugwu MRAP are reinforced to withstand small arms fire ranging from 7.62 mm to 12.7 mm from a distance of 10 metres.Other features include the Infant Patrol Vehicles (IPVs) produced by DICON in collaboration with NACED in Kaduna
Using innovative and revolutionary flat-bottom technology, it can resist improvised explosive and mine blast up to 12 kg under the vehicle as well as double enclosed turret which can traverse 360 degrees and both turrets can mount all types of munitions in the Nigerian Army inventory.
For exceptional maneuvering ability, Ezugwu MRAP comes with an independent suspension system, a 4×4 wheel drive and a 615 WD turbo diesel engine, mounted in the front of the armoured hull designed from the ground up on the Tatra 4×4 chassis.


Other vehicles produced by DICON and CED are the Special Purpose Vehicles (SPV) designed with the utmost precision for armed forces and other law enforcement agencies with wide arrays of available options and configurations.
The options include SPV Attack, SPV Trooper and SPV Carrier as well as the Infantry Patrol Vehicle (IPV) which is a light non-armoured patrol vehicle designed for quick personnel insertion, patrol and special forces related operations.
According to the user information, the IPV design was borne out of the need to create a vehicle that is civilian-friendly especially in highly volatile areas and yet satisfy operational requirement.
Similarly, the army engineers also invented and produced mobile borehole driller and fuel-less power generator specially designed to provide facility support for the troops in the battle field as well as mobile field kitchen and mobile bakery powered by solar energy.


At the inauguration ceremony in Kaduna on December 3, President Buhari commended the collaborative effort of DICON and Command Engineering Depot with relevant indigenous organisations to promote local content towards the development of the military industrial complex.
He said that the production of Ezugwu MRAP and other infantry patrol vehicles was a testimony that the research and development efforts of Nigerian Army had yielded positive results.


The Chief of Defence Staff, General Gabriel Olonisakin, said that the intended benefits of research and development in Nigerian military was even more significant in contemporary times considering the myriad of security challenges confronting the nation.
He said that the Nigeria Army’s giant strides has turned on the new vista of opportunities for the country to become a global competitor in the manufacture of military hardwares.
“The Boko Haram insurgency in particular has provided an appropriate impetus for the Nigeria Army to seriously task the ingenuity of its personnel and come up with innovative ideas to address the current terrorism challenge.
“This is particularly worthy of note because even the terrorists are known to be innovative with captured weapons in the pursuit of their nefarious activities,” he said.
Similarly, Buratai said the vehicles were innovative and inventive products of Nigeria Army’s research and development of its military industrial complex, adding that the Ezugwu MRAP was an entirely indigenous production effort from start to finish by the team of Nigerian army engineers and their partners.
“The vehicles have been tested in the various theatres of operations against Boko Haram insurgents as well as Birnin Gwari area against bandits.’’


Buratai assured that the deployment of the Ezugwu MRAPs to the battle field in the North-east and other parts of the country would be a game changer in the battle against insurgency, banditry and other security challenges confronting the country.NAN
