- yes it is Nigerian, It is license built. If the BOA is not Nigerian, then the Badger is not South-African.

- The Ara is currently under-development.

- Your Special forces used them extensively in the CAR.

- How much of the BOA is domestically designed and how much is comprised of equipment only found in Nigeria? 70%? no? then its not nigerian

- And thus is hypothetical

- And CAR was not intended to be a combat deployment

Yes it was, as it is on record that your generals begged for APCs and Helicopters from Pretoria to no avail.

Yes, in the days building up to the action.

But the deployment in CAR (when equipment was initially sent) was not intended to be a combat deployment

There is nothing spectacular in this vehicle. it's just an armoured car with a 30mm cannon. It's just like bragging about mounting a 30mm cannon on a Nigerian army Igirigi APC


1. So the Mbombe is the same as the Igirigi?
2. Designing, building and mounting an unmanned 30mm turret is easy?

Nigeria has yet to build anything in the class of the Mbombe

Even a grade 1 pupil will not hesitate any inch to confirm to you that MBOMBE is far more superior than IGIRIGI. Igirigi will not even survive a day inine infested area, so that effectively rules it out as a vehicle that can be used for unconventional war because it does not meet the requirement of an MRAP. It will also not withstand an RPG impact. It is just bad as hell.

Boko Haram released a new video in which it claims to have killed missing Nigerian Soldiers.

Is this propaganda or for real?

Why because you say so

Its not supposed to be funny, this is exactly the same thing your army does when they raid boko infested villages and portray everybody they kill as terrorists even civilians have been butchered and displayed in this very same manner.

The truth should be known from both sides so the world should know what the NA is up against daily.

Your above post is exactly why I don't trust any of your military sources until its been independently verified.

You know you talking nonsense.

It is way more sophisticated than anything Nigeria has ever produced. Your igiri APC is a piece of cr.ap everyone knows it.

Battle tested Igirigi APC has fought and won battles that your old Rooikat tank destroyer and new Badger IFV have never fought in 20 years !

Mbombe will any day beat Igirigi in any battle.

Mbombe was tested against live mines and 2portions of TNT explosives and it passed the tests. The poor Igitigi will fail.

This thread is created for constructive argument and educative purpose. Posting fake terrorists propaganda goes against the purpose of this thread.
That picture is bad and should never be on this thread. Please, remove it!!!
I swear to God that picture is fake. It was posted by enemies of Nigeria who are angered by the progress of the military.
Remove that picture now!!!

Need I say more.

http://www.paramountgroup.biz/mbombe.html

It is an armoured vehicle with a 30mm RWS, nothing spectacular.


You are yet to proof it is anything more than what I've just described.

Your Patria IFV is Finnish, there is nothing domestically designed about that vehicle.

The BOA MRAP is a much Nigerian as the Patria IFV in SANDF service is South-African.


Your 400 Elite Soldiers got their as$es roundly handed to them by SELEKA.

Yes they do
http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=51066

Seleka rebels confirmed - minimum of 400 casualties

So says 2 glory hunting Apartheid days searching journalists.

Again the UN agency on the ground, UNDP cannot confirm the story.

AFP, Reuters, BBC nor SELEKA can confirm the story.

Facts on the ground are-

-SELEKA brushed aside the South-African resistance with ease

- SANDF elite troops raised the white flag and ran begging the french for help

- SANDF elite troops had only a single medical kit, virtually no armoured verhicles, and no support from Pretoria

- SELEKA took over the government of the CAR only a few hours after the South-African engagement.

The SANDF is poorly-equipped and poorly trained, CAR proves this.


Come on, you can't be this naïve, I mean your commanding officer in the CAR was virtually on his knees begging for APCs.

Same APCs you claim to make.

-If the Igirigi were a 6x6, YES! It is the same.

- Yes, it is easy, there is nothing to it. Nigeria mounts ZSU-23mm-2 on both the Igirigi and Streit Spartan.


There is absolutely nothing to it!

We refuse to associate ourselves with the high level of backwardness exhibited by Nigeria's armed forces of brandishing cut-off heads of enemies.



I thought you Southies say Nigerian army is afraid and running from Boko Haram, so how did we we cut-off the head of the same enemy you say we fear ? grin grin

ITS YOUR SIDE

Our side is Nigerian army HQ....private independent journalists are office empolyees who where NOT present on the battlefield when explosion was exploding and h.uman h.eads were being cut off.

So you are saying that you will never have to attack an enemy position where they will stand an fight?

How were these tactics so successfull in Angola and why wont they work now?

Augutus, you need to come down to reality: Russians/Cubans are not training us in tactics and doctrine - it is NIGERIAN SOLDIERS being trained by South Africans and Russians in tactics and doctrine, you are the dummies you clown!

Stop posting tactical small unit training - and yes we can match your level, and much more advanced!

Bwahahaha grin grin grin

Useless SANDF military training, no wonder Seleka boy rebels flushed out all out your stomach and intestine grin grin

See useless video, SAAF helicopter firing machine guns into empty bush grin grin

Special units in bush operations with civilian journalists playing and laughing with them on camera grin grin

Foolish SANDF training, they cannot even use empty hands to snatch rifle from an enemy like a Kung Fu warrior

No wonder tiny Island of Cuba is now training you weak-sick-chicken hearted SANDF rookies

Compare this videos of Nigerian training involving many thousands of soldiers at the same time

Land Cruiser is used for border controll - not combat

You use soft-skinned vehicals for combat!!

SANDF all round exposed open body Gecko and Hornet are as weak as soft skinned vehicles when bullets begin to fly in combat

The use of knife bayonet to cut off the heads of the captured enermy or so called prisoner of war is in contravention with the Roman statutes and constitutes a war crime.
