Chosen for rapid response squadron by NAF. Better than a Rooivalk.

How is it better than the Rooivalk?

You only have 2, we will have 3 90-100m OPVs and 3 50-60m IPVs at the end of 2020.

Nigeria has 3 state of the art OPV's, and another. We also have over 300 MPV's, IPV's and coastal crafts.

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.

Citations please.

Its an ancient platform of limited use.

Yes same with our Warrior class OPVs, the Hull may be old but they have gone through an extensive refit the last few years. This is something our resident village idi0t cant get threw his skull.

This is what wiki said:

The ship's capabilities are enhanced by advanced air search and surface search radars including the AN/SPS-73 digital surface radar system that incorporates a state of the art computerized collision avoidance system. She uses the Shipboard Command and Control System (SCCS) which uses a network of computers including large screen displays and a dedicated satellite network for communications. A closed circuit TV system enable's the Commanding Officer to monitor flight deck operations, machinery conditions, towing, damage control, and related activities from the bridge.

Come now, you made claims, back them up

Your cutters are nothing more than ancient hand me downs... only good for being used as target barges

Why does it have SANDF numberplates?

Gulma drone has NAF I.D. and inside NAF aircraft hangers, but not yet in service.

Do you know the meaning of service? A weapon undergoing field tests is not in service until tests completed and weapon INDUCTED.

You don't know how military works.

In one fell swoop, the NAF would operate 2 Helicopter types better than your Half-French fleet of 10.

NAF - MI-35m, T-129

SAAF - 10 paltry half french.

Where does it say anything about 200?

Official number is 56

end of story

There is no 56 in that source, Czech is 56 T-72 M1, Ukraine supplied the T-72 AV, and we have seen both variants in service, M1 with RHA and AV with ERA.

How does 56 M1 become the only tank in Nigerian T-72 arsenal? All those AV variants in battle field of many different towns and more arriving loaded on ships at Lagos seaports, their total number = 0....right?

Butt Hurt....T-72 125mm guns to eat up 105mm Olifant tanks grin grin

Let me rub it in your face like hot pepper....T-72 AV from Ukraine now in battalions for Nigerian army...those small boys in that photo with use SANDF Olifant tanks for shooting practice o ! These boys have current 2015 combat experience o! shocked shocked

New camo?..its indeed an encouraging development.
However,none of our terrain or weather matches that camo shade,except if those guys belong in the navy or SF.
I could be wrong though,i'm opened to correction.
