Yes, we have come a long way. We can certainly do better, but what we have is something to be proud of.

I am particularly excited about the SDB project.

Very modern design and 100% home built.

No official word on their sizes. However they are to be delivered in 12months time according to what they told Mr President.

We also know they are to be built concurrently at NDL, so I assume they would be of similar design and length to NNS Oji.

This is the design used during the presentation.

There are a few countries that seem to be getting all kinds of experience... Desert warfare, Jungle, Mountain, densely populated Urban..... The only thing left for Uganda is winter experience

It was a beautiful show yesterday by KAF F-5 pilots during this year's Jamuhuri Day celebration.

They all went there to snap Buhari.

SDB 4 and 5 would be 46 meters and both ships would displace at 250 tons each.

Most ship skins look bumpy

There are rumors that Egypt as well Indonesia have cancelled their Su-35 order. The Su-35s already manufactured for both countries will be delivered to Algeria instead!? Are these rumors true? Can anyone confirm this? Face with monocleFace with raised eyebrow

Most ships look bumpy, except if they are built with Aluminum.

The rust on some US Navy Destroyers on deployment is something else.

It's normal, means that the ship is actively out at sea, it's a good sign IMHO

No dry docking any time soon for these ships anyhow. That armor plate is so thick, that corrosion does not even scratch the surface

I love the Sukhoi 35. If I was one of Putin's oligarch friends, I would probably get 3-4 just for messing around with.

That said, the Chinese are saying that the avionics and electronics on their Sukhoi 35s are inferior to those they produced themselves and installed in their J16s. Dunno if this is true or a sly piece of propaganda, but it is like hearing that your female crush also pees and poos, rather than being the perfect goddess you supposed her to be who's above such mortal embarrassments.

Edit: Egypt and Algeria both ordered and paid for their Su 35s and both cancelled it at the same time? I smell something very fishy.
And if they had already paid for their jets, I don't see Putin just handing them the money back. The jets might go to the Voskya PVO and the duo of Egypt and Algeria will be asked to pick out some other armaments from the Russian arsenal.

Long voyage

The Nigerian Navy has a requirement for 10 x SDBs.

With 3 units delivered and 2 x units under construction the Nigerian Navy is well underway to fulfilling it's requirements.

While SDB 1 is mainly an Inshore Patrol Craft, SDB 2 and 3 were built to Patrol all of Nigeria's 200 Nautical miles and further.

NNS Oji is designed to spend 16 days at sea before replinshment.

Last year NNS Karaduwa (SDB 2) and NNS Ekulu (Ocea built patrol craft) sailed to Ghana on a diplomatic visit. This visit marked the first visit of a Nigerian built vessel off the shores of Nigeria.
