Nigerian Army Air Brigade Takes Form With Assault Helicopters by Lanrelagboi: 5:25am On Jun 21
The first ever Aviation Brigade in the Nigerian Army is taking shape with the delivery of the first pair of UH-1 Huey helicopters from the United States. Bringing with it new structure, new doctrine and brand new way of fighting.

Combining the airlift and CAS capabilities of the UH-1 Huey together with the attack firepower of the incoming Cayuse Warrior helicopters, the Nigerian army will be able to mount air assault operations using the firepower and mobility of these helicopters.

This is commendable but the FG and Nigerian military have been underperforming when it comes to banditry and terrorism.

We have the Army, Air Force, Police, NSCDC and the Navy... Boko Haram & ISWAP don't have fighter jets or helicopters, just AK 47 and improvised explosives, yet they've fostered for so long with many of them even spreading to other parts of Nigeria.

What a big shame!

What a log of garbage. The Huey that the US used in Vietnam is what our army depends on as cutting edge close air support tech? The huey? This platform that was developed in the early 1950s before Nigeria got independence?

In contested airspace where bandits across the North have access to weapon systems that bring down fast moving fighter jets, a huey that its maximum speed is 127mph is just a flying coffin. Who the hell thought this was a good idea?

The US is about to retire several hundred of its A-10 warthogs. That's about the most capable close air support platform around. Since the US is now willing to sell weapon platforms to Nigeria, they might consider selling some A-10s to us. Even though that's a tall order.

2024 and na Huey wey oyibo don forget about since 1950 na him our army fall hand dey buy so. Shebi dem no see blackhawk buy as dem go market?

I pray its not shot down soon. Beside the future is unmanned area vehicle. We need drones and capable hands to man them. The army needs eyes in the skys. Check out Burkina Faso military dealing deadly blow to terrorist using drones from Turkey
