Having a strong military and a well motivated soldiers is very important nowadays, but poor and developing countries doesn't invest much in their armed forces.
We've all seen Ukrainian president Zelensky begging different countries for military assistance through video calls to foreign parliaments as Russia continue to bomb cities.


Two aircraft carriers with dozens of fighter jets, B-52 stratofortress and B-2 spirit.

Poor military..very poor compared to modern day.. grin

2)Out dated ammunition.
3)Handicapped in IT infrastructure and personnel..
4)Lack of proper facilities for establishing and maintaining communication..
5)Communication within troops..
6)Base to Troop communication..
7)Poor intelligence gathering....
And many more.. grin

What about the ones we have
Re: Some Military Hardwares Nigeria Cannot Afford, Or We Don't Need Them by Mooh247: 7:36pm On Mar 30, 2022
cool



Nigeria clearly don't need such weaponry... Our National Budget and GDP can't finance such. What we need are light aircrafts for internal crisis and surveillance

US that owns such defence weapons finance it through war and proceeds of war

SouthKorea alone Pays US over $500 million USD for its Anti missile system and another $2.6 billion to develop theirs

Gulf countries, Especially Saudi, UAE , Bahrain doles out Billions annually to keep US military base functional for Regional defence and Oil installation protection

I agree with you, but we need to invest more in science and technology and develop our weapons that will rival those

The question is if the manufacturers would sell to us. Countries who have these weapons are closely knitted to the aprons of the US undecided

Check them out and you will discover that they got it because of their strategic relationship with the US and were victims of terror.

Nothing Nigeria can develop on their own yet they keep shouting giant of Africa..

And people are saying the white man is not closer to God than the Blackman..

God created humans i have dominion over every other things he created. How has the Blackman taken advantage of anything God created??


Some jokers went as far as saying Africa was doing fine developmentally before the white men came...
