I just wished Zelensky would negotiate and wind this down, massive arms are pouring into that country right now, i feel terrible for the civilians there, it's going to be bloodier, and i don't see the gain in that for Ukraine. Negotiation could have helped them keep at least some of that region, I'm not well versed on Ukraine's geography, but continuous war isn't going to help. And funny enough they attacked homeland of Russia twice i believe, after Putin warned them not to, i hope their capital doesn't get decimated, we wait and watch. Only winners here are those egging them on to keep fighting. davefurn: |

davefurn:I don't know what you're saying. Oil has never been Ukraine's major exports. They're a farming nation, exporting wheat and other agric produce. They also export industrial raw materials. Not the entire shore line of Ukraine is under seige. A huge chunk of Ukrainian shoreline up to the port of Odessa hasn't seen a Russian bullet. 2 Likes |

Stormtrooper11: I don't think it's this Russian war that spoilt stuff. Although this war has put a nail on Russia's coffin and slammed it shut with regards to military procurement. If you remember correctly, Nigeria has been chasing the Super Tucano since the administration of former President Yar'Adua. Including attempts by President GEJ to purchase American helicopters from Israel. It's been a long time coming. Really Nigerian pilots want to fly American. 1 Like |

kabe1:Let's weigh the pros and cons First of all, Nigeria does not produce any, so military equipment in Nigeria is generally foreign controlled. Either America, EU, Russia or China. Mixing up a fleet has proven to be ineffective, cost prohibitive and detrimental in the long run. So buying from all countries to cook up soup in your airbases is a foolish option to start with. America and EU pros Tested equipment battle proven and Reliable Counter terror mutual interest Economic sanction free Russia pros Reliable as well Good alternative to anti westerners China pros Cheap equipment little to no control America cons Legislature and congress control due to democracy Can be pricy due to high labor costs Russia cons Putin control (A lot you may not know here) Economic sanction prone Less counter terror mutual interest China cons May not be reliable Little counter terror mutual interest. |

kabe1: Exactly. Nigeria has always been interested in the F 16 too. We might just be flying those birds in half a decade. It's probable but I hope not. I want atleast the Chinese J-10C. The Americans might have the "best" equipment but the worst Terms and conditions for developing countries. We can't risk making our entire airforce Americanised . Just a slight going against their will and our entire airforce would be grounded. |

Faithful007: Seems the Egyptians will need your advice on mixing up a fleet lol. I know you're Pro-American. You believe that Uncle Sam is always right. You believe yall the good guys but I tell you what, Have you ever seen Russia and China interfering in the internal politics of a country uninvited?? E.g. The Syrians invited the Russians, who invited America? These are some of the things people weigh. Look at the terms we was given when trying to purchase the A 29s initially. The Americans didn't want to share deep technical knowledge with us. Does Russia apply all those terms? Look at Pakistan. How the Americans always come to check out the F16s. Did China give Pakistan those terms and conditions for the J10? Look, the Americans don't see us as equal partners especially us in the developing world. They see us as "kids". When you say Russian equipment are economic sanction prone, I hope you meant prone to American sanctions cos Putin isn't the one known to sanction people and will you like to explain what you meant by Putin being controlling? You're a funny dude for saying American equipment is economic sanctions free. You're literally saying "Buy American equipment or get sanctioned by us for not buying ours". Even when you buy, they sanction your country if the politics in your country is not going in their favour. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Stormtrooper11: The problem is, will the Americans allow Nigeria purchase the J-10C even if we want to get them, I really doubt that. With the purchase of the AH-1Z it would be very possible for Nigeria to also get the F-16. 3 Likes |

Faithful007:Odessa have been seeing strikes alot; if odessa is taken, ukraine doesn't have a port city again. Most of ukraine products are agricultural and steel but it's to note that most of that are produced around especially the steel are produced around the eastern region close to the sea. https://tradingeconomics.com/ukraine/exports#:~:text=Ukraine%20exports%20mainly%20steel%2C%20coal,Others%20include%20Turkey%20and%20China. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.spglobal.com/commodityinsights/en/market-insights/latest-news/agriculture/030122-feature-russian-invasion-disrupts-ukrainian-sunflower-oil-industry%23:~:text%3DThe%2520major%2520growing%2520regions%2520for,eastern%2520provinces%2520of%2520the%2520country.&ved=2ahUKEwjm9bh0JX3AhUehf0HHWEIB4IQFnoECAUQBQ&usg=AOvVaw2XvrjqpnznG0zrpStmTJtD If the eastern region is lost, a huge chunk of ukraine economy crashes. When last I checked the map.of ukraine; well I didn't see any major port cities again. As you can see seed oils, highest ukrainian agricultural exports is mostly produced in the eastern and central region

Just like they tried with Indonesia who look like going for the Rafale and the US put out a proposal for I think the F16. We will wait and see as both army aviation and NAF need new attack helos. |
