Iran said the drone didn't come from outside the country but within the country..they said it wasn't from another country so how come you got yours
the drones were destroyed by their air defense system, I don't understand the point of your argument.

Okay. I have confirmed that we have some ZSU-23-4 Shilka and Roland defence system. These are very old short range AD systems but my concern is, are they combat ready or functioning at all?

I doubt if they carry out regular tests on these weapons. To be honest, AD is not our main priority at the moment, we need more of attack UAVs to combat banditry and terrorism.

They're functioning and Yes the Airforce is heavily investing into the Acquisition of UAVs. Not only are they acquiring, they're also partnering with the Isreali Military to make her own Locally made Amebo and Gulma drones

Person be SF no be say him na bullet proof. Make dem equip dem with correct tools and equipment abeg. No be by AK47 or AR15 dem dey do SF oo. Give dem tools kawai.

Lol many of Y'all think it's bout using M-16 and all these snow or temperate climate enacted guns that can't survive the Sahara region

Bro Ak-47 still remains the best assault rifle that hardly jam during firing with a more deadly effect than the M-16. Ask any Soldier. What Nigeria should have done is to upgrade to the latest Ak-47 that doesn't overheat and got a more release power

NAF have upgraded already leaving the Army behind

One of the most famous counter-terrorism operations in history took place in 1980. Gunmen overran the Iranian Embassy in London and took hostages, but the crisis was resolved when the building was stormed by the British SAS.

These Nigerian panthers or panties , taking photos like little girls in pink skirts, no history, no future , nothing
Check out other SAS operations. Freshest one in my memory is when RUF rebels too hostage some British peacekeepers in the 90's. Those guys are legends.

panthers doesn't exist in Nigeria so why name then panthers? we all saw how Iran defended it's national assets and airfields from Israeli missiles and drones, does the the Nigerian air forces have the equipment and training to defend our airports from foreign missiles using an air defense system? the answer is no because we don't have an air defense system despite all the money been budgeted for defense since 2015 by the APC government, we should stop celebrating nonsense in this country.

And who told you we don't have air defense system. You people will just keep saying things based on either assumption or ignorance.
Do we have air defence system in the same category as Iran, Isreal, etc, the answer is no. But that we don't have, you can't say so.

special forces don't have a standard uniform,these are men trained to work behind enemy lines and long range patrol's,they are not your normal soldiers,they have access to the best equipments and training,if I am the CO of such team I will not allow any married man to be a part of the boots on the ground,it must be made up of young men without baggage and without fear of death.

Another elite special force team in Nigeria is the NAF Panthers🔥
Who are the Panthers?
A thread:
The Panthers, under the Nigeria Air force special operation forces (NAF SOF) Are highly trained and specialised unit, equipped to handle unique and challenging missions that requires a high level of skills and expertise.

They serve as a specialist airfield and defense corps and has been active since 2015.
The Nigerian Air Force Special Operations Forces are involved in a variety of missions that require their specialized skills.

They also serve to defend NAF bases and protecting the Air Force interests and its bases across the country, in especially conflict zones like the North East, Maiduguri. The regiment is currently operating in internal security operations in 14 states.

These forces are trained to adapt to different situations and carry out their tasks with precision and effectiveness.
They are included under the NAF special operations command. they've the nicknames or code name "The Panthers".

The Panthers are charged with the role of Non-combatant evacuation operations and Special operations support. They are grouped into different structures and hierarchy such as; VIP Protection Squad, Special Operations Force, Regiment Training Centre, Quick Response Force (QRF).

The Quick Response Squad in Nigeria is equivalent to the U.S Air FORCE 6 Special Forces. The men who make up the QRS are a special breed of warriors, Consisting of special ops, paratroopers, amphibious troops, men of the Nigerian Air Force Quick Response Squad

are trained at a higher level and intensity than the rest of the Nigerian armed forces.

They are well equipped and experts in weapons and intelligence gathering, these rapidly forces deployed bring specialised mobility and firepower to the enemy any time anywhere. Often operating in hostile areas, these highly trained specialists not only provide combat support,

but are skilled parachutists, scuba divers, rock climbers.

The forces wear body armor made of, carry armor-puncturing knives, and don visions systems that can combine visual data with infrared and feeds from UAVs overhead and they make use of weapons like the "Beryl M762 assault rifle" , "IWI Tavor assault rifle."

They have on several occasions proven their worth as they are the sole SpecOps unit of the Air force and are very active in the north west and north east region of Nigeria.

They have Carried out successful missions on bandits and terrorist which include:
Neutralising and suyalizing of 30 bandits on January 2021,Opposing a catastrophic attack in the north west region which 30 operators took on 200+ terrorists and wiping out half of the group.

Rescuing of hostages,and neutralising bandits and terrorists camps and hideout, and other successful missions have been carried out by the NAF Panthers.🔥✨


Are these airforce personnel not suppose to be airborne for effectiveness?

That's why I asked I thought you're Educated. They're all Armed Forces and any Arm of Military in the World have their Ground fighting troops.

I thought Naval is for water? Why then is the US using Navy Seal team for most ground fighting warfare and extraction?? why was the Naval team sent to kill Bin laden and not US Army?? Why was Naval team sent to rescue an Abducted American in Borno and not their Army?? Lastly, Why does the US Army operate an independent Drone and Aircraft when they got an Airforce??

In Essence, Either Airforce, Navy or Army, They all supplement themselves and also take on independent operations when necessary without having to go thr the longest route of waiting for Assistance from the other

The naval seals are trained fir extractions esp through the sea route !
It's like police trained for hostage negotiations it's cos a part of their job focused more on extraction than war fare
