@rugged7 Correction, they Nigerian Navy Special Boat Service Personnel. Even the correspondent Arwa Damon alluded to that

@originalpato:
You are right....
But i've also seen Army special forces undergoing training in pakistan with their SSG with the same apparels.
-As far as i recall
Adjusted accordingly.
My bad...

I watched the CNN report. Arwa Damon never mentioned Navy SBS, She said "Nigerian special forces"
-As far as i recall

bro, they are navy sbs. i never expexted army special forcea to participate in that rubbish exercise when they are needed in an ongoung offensive. these westerners are just being deceptive. i saw a better version of the exercise on cctv, only the navy sbs perfomed without instructors. the rest were just taught how to shoot AKs they already lernes how to shoot.

useless exercise if you aske me.

Frankly speaking, i do not trust any exercise the americans are involved in.

the army shuld move these tanks under d cover of darkness to ensure a certain level of secrecy ,movin them in broad day light exposes them to ambush by bh sympathisers .if any can remember nigeriian troops were once ambushed in okene while travelin up north

from my own pespective its a T72 due to upfront external fuel

Late flying officer Ayuba Joab.


He was lost when the Alpha Fighter Jet he manned alongside Squadron Leader Benjamin Bem Ado crashed in non-combat flight in Dargol village some 60 KM from Niamey in support of the then Africa led mission in mali (AFISMA).

Nice point or should I say opinion ; don't u think our top chiefs know that ? travelling @ night will prone more risk than daylight they, if u av ever being ambushed @ night pray it never happens the enemy would av a greater advantage ! But u know what they can miss traveLling @ night cos adamawa,jos,yobe and maiduguri are tham too far ! Unless they make there rest @ specified or designated military facility along there root !

Easy things, nothing difficult. We just need to do the right things. The power of photography.

The United states military media releases 300 photos every day. That is 9300 photos per month, photos that send jitters down the spine of their enemies and make them seem invincible.

This is shameful..why would the NN's SBS show up in t-shirts and keffiyehs? Why can't we do anything right?..our special forces looking so non-challant and rudimentary..t shirts?

Glad that the NAF can conduct and as the capabilities to hit the enemy @ night ...

I don't think u have a basic grasp of what special forces are or how they function.
By their very nature, they are meant to be unkempt, bearded and informal DRESSING so as to blend in.
And probably these guys arrived straight from the North east.
Have a look at the special forces pictures of U>S, U.K special forces in afghanistan, IRAQ ETC
It is not a FASHION PARADE...

Don't get me wrong..I've studied TONS of material on the U.S Navy SEALS and the British SAS..the Seals in Afghanistan wore t-shirts ,short knickers, keffiyehs, hardly ever shaved their facial hair, and were heavily tattooed..There is no problem with that..Special Forces operators are "behind the lines" and unconventional...I get that..But this is an INTERNATIONAL exercise for Christ sake!..no one shoes up in a Board meeting with sneakers.

Henry120 can u identify this Medic APC i saw in kaduna this afternoon, its quite a new vehicle, but it was the only one i saw.

I don't see anything wrong in how they look. They are dressed for an exercise in the searing heat.

Here's a belgium S.F operator in the same exercise, now compare with Navy SBS operators.

What's the difference?

Navy can kit up for operations, operators wear what they are most comfortable in.

@jteku, I can't I.D the MRAP.
