There is no tank in the pictures, they are APCs(Armoured Personnel Carriers) and AFVs(Armoured Fighting Vehicles).

A battle tank is much more menacing than these ones, the role of these ones are to support the battle tanks in the battle field.

@op, categorise them well.

Take correction when you are given one (in your case, many) and stop displaying your ignorance to the whole world! Or are you saying you are a fool?

i think we really need to do more in hardware acquisition as well as developing local content in the military hardware industry! We need every weapon we can get in the war against terror and to assert our territorial integrity as well as deter potential african aggressors

We have to credit OBJ with the increased professionalism of the military. In all ramifications they have improved, from battlefield capabilities to equipment, to discipline (including political discipline), to R&D, manufacturing etc.

The best laws and ordinace will be despise and trample under feet if not supported by by strong arm. A country witout good arm is like a magnificient palace with beautiful jewel and which furniture, which will soon molder into ruins since it has nothin but it treasure to protect it from the ravaging of the weather.

One thing got my interest in this (permit me to digress a little pls). If that Igirigi of a machine was built by an Igbo military engineer that engineer should be jailed for wrong brand naming of the equipment and premeditated deceit.
Igirigi in Igbo means DEW and that's the direct opposite of the kind of things that precipitate from the muzzle of that machine! It's never cool like igirigi! It negates the name!

You are useless. Igirigi is not dew. Igirigi is the light rain that comes first before the storm. So the name is completely adequate. This is just the beginning. The real storm is coming.

WELL IT GOOD TO KNOW BUT NOT SOMETHING TO START JUMPING ABOUT FOR. HONESTLY NIGERIAN ARMY IS NOTHING TO WRITE HOME ABOUT IN THIS MODERN DAY WORLD OF WARFARE AND INSURGENCY. THE TOTAL MIGHT OF THE NIGERIAN FORCE INCLUDING POLICE AND PARA MILITARY IS JUST TOO SMALL AND ILL EQUIPPED. SECONDLY THE SO CALLED NIGERIAN ARMY IS FILLED WITH SO MUCH BUREAUCRACY THAT IT EVEN SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE TO JOIN THE ARMED FORCE WITHOUT 1 FORM OF CONNECTION. I CAN STILL RECALL MY EXPERIENCE WHEN I WANTED TO JOIN THE ARMY,HONESTLY EVER SINCE THEN I VOWED NOT TO EVEN GIVE THE NIGERIAN ARMY A SECOND THOUGHT, YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE AFTER ALL D SCREENING AND EVERYTHING..IN WHICH I WASN'T PICKED SOME KIDS WHERE JUST BROUGHT IN JEEPS AND NICE OVER SIZED JEEPS AND THEY JUST WENT AHEAD AS IF WE WHERE NOT EVEN THERE..WE WHERE IN THE SUN LOOKING LIKE MEN WHO HAVE SEEN THE UNSEEN.. TAKE A LOOK AT COUNTRIES LIKE BRITAIN.US,GERMANY AND MANY MORE EVEN ISRAEL,RIGHT AFTER YOUR HIGH SCHOOL YOU ARE GIVEN THE CHANCE TO JOIN YOUR COUNTRIES ARMED FORCE WITHOUT CONNECTION OR SOME SOUGHT OF KNOW HOW...THE ONLY THING YOU NEED IS YOUR PHYSICAL FITNESS AND MENTAL HEALTH.. WHAT I DON'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND IS WHY SOME LEADERS IN THIS GREAT NATION WOULD SIPHON SO MUCH MONEY WHEN WE HAVE SO MANY LOOP HOLES THAT NEEDS ATTENTION.IF WE HAS A NATION CAN INVEST HEAVILY IN SECURITY AND POWER 'ELECTRICITY' WE WOULD HAVE ENOUGH FOREIGN INVESTORS WHO ARE ACTUALLY READY TO INVEST IN US AND NOT STEALING OUR RESOURCES. IN CONCLUSION AM NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL COS WE CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT AND IF A REAL WAR ACTUALLY HAPPENS OR MAYBE SOME KIND OF REVOLUTION HONESTLY ITS THEN WE WILL KNOW WE ACTUALLY DO REALLY HAVE A LOT OF SLEEPING SOLDIERS IN THE CIVILIANS AND THEN IT WOULDN'T BE A MATTER OF GUNS OR BOMBS OR ARMORED TANKS AND STUFF BUT A MATTER OF SURVIVAL, COS THEN EVEN THE GUY WITH THE GUN WOULD BE SCARED OF HIS LIFE...........
