Sweet, how many did Kenya get?

Nigeria was very close to ordering 12 x units of these from France 17 years ago.

The things we have been saying all along.... Russia/Soviets are/were never great at war, the only reason why they even won against the Nazis was all thanks to the Allied Forces pounding on the western front and the relentless air bombing on the Nazi infrastructure, otherwise Adolf would have blitzkrieged Stalin to Japan.

I mean, look at their latest offense in the north east of Ukraine, they throw in 3 tanks, a few unlucky drunk dudes on top of APCs and just pray to St Peter for the best (only to be taken out by POV drones)... The only good thing the Russians have going is artillery.

Damn bro chill before you make certain types in here upset. grinšŸ˜‚ Real talk though while I personally wouldnā€™t say they were ā€œnever good at warā€ Iā€™d definitely say there grossly overrated. Wether they win in Ukraine eventually or not itā€™s clear there no where near as strong as the world assumed and them marching through Europe like the Hollywood movies is laughable and nigh impossible. Especially if more of these EU rearmament plans go through.

1. What percentage of the dead Nazis was caused by the soviet union and what percentage was caused by the "allies" ?
2. Who took Berlin ? Was it the "allies" ? Or was it the soviet union?
3. If the soviet union was so ridiculously bad at warfare then why the need for NATO alliance ?
4. If Russia is so useless at warfare then why is the need for NATO ?
5. Are you sure you are not one of those drunks on top of an APC ?
6. How many nations are supporting Ukraine ? Isn't it like 50 nations ? (Including the USA, Germany ...) Are they not emptying their armouries ? Isn't the USA running out of ammunition ?
7. Basically you don't understand the strategy of the Russian armed forces, for further research, it is called strategy of attrition, it is slow, but it is working. This is not a Hollywood Rambo movie ! This is a real war.
8. If Germany was being pounded in the western front, then the Germans must have been sadomasochistic since it is in that same western front that the Germans were spending their holidays when they were too tired from fighting against the Russians. Also when a German soldier was being punished, the most feared punishment was to send him to the eastern front.

Hollywood turned your brain upside down, you are now permanently drunk without the need to drink alcohol. History is not learnt in rambo movies. But since you are a Nigerian I understand that you actually don't even understand the very concept of history.

This could also go both ways
The only reason the allied forces in the western front were finally able to go and also maintain an offensive was because Germany had to pull more forces to try and contain the soviets in the eastern front grin grin

DRC : South African firm Milkor pitches new drone to Kinshasa
"Africa Intelligence has seen a proposal sent to Kinshasa a few months ago by Milkor's boss, Richard Ramokgopa, which the Congolese administration is still examining. The deal in question includes 12 Milkor 380 drones, a new model with a wingspan of over 18m that is primarily intended for surveillance and reconnaissance but can also carry a payload of around 200kg."

There are plans to establish a stand-alone unit responsible for disaster relief & response, mountain rescue, and sea search & rescue. That way costs won't be borne by the SANDF alone, but shared across the various departments with domain responsibility.

The Nigerian Navy is one of the largest in Africa.

The Navy has primarily focused in recent years on building it's littoral combat capabilities.

Nigerian Navy Air Army has more helicopters (14 x units) than 90% of various Air Forces in Africa.

There were rumors the Nigerian Navy has placed an order for an additional LST to compliment NNS Kada.

However after more than 1 year, those rumors appear to be false.

What conventional capabilities do you think the Nigerian Navy should invest in?

I think USV (unmanned surface vessels), Coverttes / small missile armed ships and an additional LST.

I don't see any need for Frigates.
