Soweto r3tard!

SAAF isn't getting anymore Half-french Helicopters, if you were, you won't have only 10 in active service.


When Nigerian went to the market to purchase Helicopters, Africa felt it. 40 attack/Transport Helicopters in all, excluding up-grades done to NAF super-Puma's.

-12 MI-35M and 12 MI-171sh Terminator

-At least 8 MI-24v Helicopters and MI-17 from ukraine

-12 MI-35p from belarus.

-At leat 8 Gazelle Helicopters for Army Air corps.

* drones and additional survelliance planes not added.

* watch this space, the Nigerian Army Air corps is seriously considering the TAI T129 ATAK Helicopter.



This is how we ball bi.tch !! cool cool cool


Yes, I know how the SAAF spent money on jets it cannot afford, it cannot fly and cannot keep in the air. 9 pilots in 16 years isn't actually a stellar record.

We also know how your project biro is about to celebrate it's 23 birthday as a colossal pipe dream. TBH, i'm genuinely concerned.


So, white boy, what is going to replace your half-french helicopter?


Here's a quote from the CAS confirming the T129 helicopters

Another technology that falls within the NEC, he said, is the T129 attack helicopters, which we are trying to acquire now, and once the pilot is on flight with the forward looking infra red, he does not need to come back home before striking. As the enemy is being detected, he gets directive to continue the strike, and that makes the strike easy.

There is not a single fact in them.

- 56 T-72s ordered.

I trade in facts. Not opinion. Not feelings.

Nope, fact is 56 T-72 M1 tanks from Czech republic only.

A total of 200 T-72 tanks ordered by Nigeria, 65% delivered according to president Jonathan.

T-72 AV tanks ordered from Ukraine....confirmed by Ukraine's minister for defence
:

"Previously there was no information about contracts on delivery of such armaments to Nigeria. However, the information about the repair works of T-72AV at State Enterprise “Lviv Armor Repair Plant” appeared in September 2014. Concerning the BTR-4E, it seems that small part of 42 BTR-4E APCs batch designed for Iraq, was sold to Nigeria, after Iraq refused to accept them.

On March 26, 2014, Ukraine’s ex-PM Yulia Tymoshenko asked the Security Service of Ukraine to investigate the sale of military equipment to foreign states during the time of Russian military aggression against Ukraine. She also noted, that she had the information about the preparation of delivery of T-72 tanks and BTR-4E APCs to Nigeria.

Valeriy Heletey, then-Defense Minister of Ukraine, refuted some part of Tymoshenko’s statements, while confirmed the existence of a sales contract between Ukraine and Nigeria. “The contract was signed during the presidency of Viktor Yanukovych, and in case of inability to fulfill this contract, Ukraine will be obliged to pay the penalties.” – said Mr. Heletey.

The Hull might be old, but that boat is africa's most advanced High endurance vessel. It comes with a state of the art "Rmfac" (spelling incorrect) and an advance radar/ data link system which allows for seamless communication between the ATR, land Operations center/ surveillance systems , commandos and vessel.

The boat also got an 8.5 million dollars overhaul before transfer.
