I doubt it was an RPG, it's most likely an anti aircraft gun with wicked caliber. RPG rearly hit jets because they fly too fast and can dodge them with relative ease except they have infrared guiding system. RPG are more effective for war helicopters.. Supan: |

I play Metal Gear a lot. There is no fuckiing way boko boys have anti air missiles, because that's the only weapon that can bring down a jet or plane. Any we need to break up from the North Now. They have ruined the Army. If you're in the Nigerian army & from south Nigeria, leave the army now!!! 1 Like |

KnightsTemplar: We can't have drones because we dont have satellite capabilities/ imaging. However for that mission an apache would have been a better choice than the jet. Even without drones we can still spend a little on modern equipment like laser guided munitions below wch helps the aircraft locate and annihilate its target without bring so close to the ground.

oluwaahmed: This statement is absolutely false and factually incorrect. One does not need to OWN satellites to use them, sir. Drones used by hobbyists today, are GPS satellite enabled, meaning that they can be programmed to precisely follow pre-programmed flight-paths drawn on map using a computer or smart device , towards any specified GPS coordinates within range of the drone's battery, and at any specified height above ground. US police departments currently use consumer-level drones to monitor high crime areas, and they certainly don't OWN any satellites. Anyone in any country worldwide, holding a portable GPS receiver, or even a GPS-enabled smartphone, is also dependent on GPS satellites, without any need to OWN a multi-million dollar satellite. Returning to military drones, there is no reason why Nigerian police departments and the Nigerian military cannot buy CHEAP consumer level drones, purely for surveillance. Your dissertation about Apache helicopter is fascinating, but of no relevance at all to Nigeria's military, because Apache helicopters are NOT available for purchase by the Nigerian military, whose reliance on Russian helicopter gunships is well documented. 1 Like 1 Share |

Man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADS or MPADS) are shoulder-launched surface-to-air missiles (SLSAMs). They are typically guided weapons and are a threat to low-flying aircraft, especially helicopters.

Re: Boko Haram: We Shot Down Nigerian Air Force Alpha Jet & Killed Pilots by Foolishbuhari: 2:53pm On Apr 03, 2021 |
nograv: The thing sef shock me Bro! In the black market, one of those sells for between ₦30m to ₦40m and they can be gotten from Libya then ferried across the porous northern borders. Funny thing in my first post on this matter, I was blaming the competence of the pilots because I knew only a SAM could do that, but I totally ruled out BH clout to access those. Now I have seen that indeed they have access to those and it pains me how the north let this monster grow teeth because of bad politics. 1 Like |

marvin906: Let's assume the video is fake Bro that's no longer the priority here. The question we should be asking is how did BH have access to SAMs? How the hell did they get their hands on a Stinger?! |

Foolishbuhari: A shoulder-fired AA weapon would be a big concern for airline operators flying Nigerian airspace. Some years ago, Iraqi terrorists invited a female journalist to watch them shoulder-launch a missile at a DHL Boeing 767 that was climbing up to cruise level on departure from Baghdad airport. The jet landed after turning back with one wing aflame from the missile hit. That feat of airmanship entered the realm of legend on that day. Afghan terrorists armed with US-made stinger missiles downed several Russian Mi-24 helicopter gunships deployed as part of Russia's ill-fated occupation of Afghanistan during the early 1980s, and it wasn't long before the Russians pulled out of that war-ravaged land. It is therefore conceivable that Islamic terrorists could have supplied Boko Haram with a similar shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missile system. 3 Likes |
