Is that a REVA MK5? If so, that would be a quick delivery from when the order was placed.

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 9:54am On Dec 07, 2015 |
frumentius: We purchased both Reva MK3s and Reva MK5s. Delivery of the Reva MK5 was reported on Beegeagle when MK3s were first sighted. However because of the secrecy which surrounds weapons procurement in Nigeria, we constantly have to rely on unofficial photographs to proof some of these deliveries. |

Henry240: Oh, didn't know you ordered both at the same time. Was informed the MK5 order only came later, after the NA had been extensively using and been impressed by the MK3. What's the point with the secrecy when the selling party has to report and publish in its country's domicile? So, is it safe to assume the order ICP is currently processing is for both? |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 12:46pm On Dec 07, 2015 |
frumentius: They are not mandated by law to release figures. Secrecy in defence procurements is just another avenue to loot funds and falsify figures. Nothing more nothing less. Yes... ICP is currently processing the order for both contracts, we do not know, and probably would never know the amount ordered. Last we heard was ICP was purportedly running at full capacity due to the Nigeria order. |

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 4:04pm On Dec 07, 2015 |
Xbee007: the aircraft is one of the four Il-80 aircraft, heavily modified Il-86 airliners, used as airborne command center in a role similar to that of the U.S. Boeing E-4B since the mid-1980s.http://theaviationist.com/2015/12/04/lets-have-a-look-at-the-russian-air-force-il-80-maxdome-putins-doomsday-plane/ |

jln115: Its a technology test-bed, once they have operated it for a couple of years they will commission a proper production run They did the exact same thing with their new LCS class Cost is so high because it includes R& ![]() ![]() So, once they are finished and place an order you will see the unit cost droo dramatically (economies of scale) Same with F35, everyone goes on about "the trillion dollar jet"..... but what thet fail to realize is that once they go into production the F35 will be the cheapest fighter (unit cost) the USAF has had in the jet age Also - RAILGUNS The ship is practically empty, they have left space for the equipment needed to power railguns, so in the next 10 years we will see one sporting a railgub, which will herald the return of the Battleship (i hope) |

patches689:Still not convinced, they originally ordered 32 DDG1000s and canceled 29 of them, that differently says something. Also what makes it better, than say the Type 45 destoyer, yes the Zumwalt comes with 80 cells and the Type 45 with 42+8 but its also halve the size and definitely less than halve the cost? Not to mention the hull of the Zumwalt is extremely unstable in rough sees, so don't expect one visiting SA. Also doesn't matter how great the US is at stealth design, your not hiding a 15ton ship As for Railguns, what I've read is that they would take up less space than conventional guns, when they enter service one day, thus one can theoretically fit a Railguns on to any platform. |
