Henry240:Still doesn't cut it...The JF-17 (Block I ,II, and III) does not match the on-board electronic suites of the F-5E (A close relative of the T-38 Talon). This is the main reason why Morocco ditched its plans to induct the Block II versions. Our best option is to induct the L-15-class aircraft as an advanced jet trainer with pilots only doing type conversion on front-line squadrons to the JF-17, although again this could be done using a two-seat version of the JF-17 (Twin Seater variant yet to be inducted!). Either way, NAF pilots are not ready to fly that aircraft. Simple. 1 Like |

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 4:57pm On Jun 10, 2016 |
Katyusha: It isn't a problem as the B variant of the JF-17 would soon be launched. The L-15, M-356, YAK-130 are the same type of aircraft, They and the Karakorum are all available for advanced training. NAF pilots are ready for the JF-17, is there currently a dual seat version of the F-7 in NAF inventory. All 3 dual-seater F-7, lost in crashes, so how do they fly the F-7? There are no absolutes. 1 Like |

Henry240:The Pakistanis were brought in following several FT-7Ni crashes, which resulted in the grounding of the fleet in October 2012. After assistance from the Pakistan Air Force, the jets were cleared to fly again.. THAT is what solved the issues with the F-7Ni. Back to the main issue, am sure Nigeria's quest for the Hongdu L-15 was borne out of the necessity for a suitable trainer for the incoming JF-17s. 1 Like |

Henry240:Very sad to hear that the all dual-seater lost. FT-7 is the worest trainer.If the lost are caused by mechanical failure,the manufacturer must give some explanations.Though the mig21 family including Russian made age old mig21 have not very good safety reputation. |

Henry240:Not sure about it but i have heard that many Nigerian Pilots have completed training in Pakistan and one has been selected for JF 17 http://defence.pk/threads/nigeria-prepares-for-the-arrival-of-jf-17s-mushaks.433994/page-3 |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 5:20pm On Jun 10, 2016 |
Katyusha: Exactly, the Pakistanis were brought in, in 2012, this is 2016, the Pakis left in 2012. The assistance of the Pakis did not help with type conversion, they only assisted with the mechanical issues of the F-7s. Now back to the issue of conversion, there isn't a shortage of advanced trainers in the market. NAF has a significant pool to choose from, and there is also the JF-17B variant to look forward to. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 5:22pm On Jun 10, 2016 |
chinese8107: The lost FT-7s were primarily due to mechanical failures. The F-7 was only purchased as a stop-gap measure until a suitable Light Multi-Role Combat Aircraft could be bought. |

Henry240:Yeah, Since we are inducting 25-40 units(3 Squadrons) in the nearest future, the NAF can save costs by overseas training in Pakistan for the selected few who will fly the jets instead of acquiring the the JF-17B. From 2020 onward, we can now begin to shop for a 4.5 Gen fighter to equip two squadrons to form a new Vanguard for the NAF. |

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 8:48pm On Jun 10, 2016 |
Katyusha: 18 JF-17s and the J-31 when it finally enters production is a more likely Air Force we should aspire to. Although like i've previously stated, the J-10B would have been a more preferable choice for me. |

patches689:the only reason why America is not engaged in a full scale war is because of the influence of a strong elite opposition to any arbitrary decision that is sanctioned by the ruling party. If America practiced the kind of Democracy that Nigeria or Kenya and any other SSA country practise a mad president who have the strong support of his party would have pulled them into perpetual war against a strong enemy that would eventually destroy them, But The Bush administration used article 51 (right to self defense) of the UN charter to invade Iraq. He forgot that for an action to ensure provided for under ART 51 as self defense the provoked state must first convince the security Council that she was attack by the armed forces of another state or by bandits who have the capacity to cause damage like any conventional armed forces, there was no evidence that Iraq is linked to AL quada and even if it was see the Nicaragua V USA case the court suggested that the mere sponsorship of militants and armed bandits against another state does not amount to an armed attack. The US opposition did not use any of this legal nonsense (that is known to even the most stupid student of international law) , against Bush action why? OK even if it was an action in self defense due to the mass weapon allegedly in Iraq which according to article 2 (1) of the UN charter IRAQ was already subscribing to the UN WEAPON monitoring team and they have not given out their report. Before the UN team could give any report US and her allies who did not enjoy even the kind of fraudulent jurisdiction the US was enjoying joined and invaded Iraq even while other peaceful alternatives to war was still available. This was a clear violation of international law but the opposition in the US said little about it until the corpse started coming in and the cost of war started telling on the nation's purse. That was when all of a sudden invading Iraq became a bad idea. Bush deserves the same seat as the guys from the Nuremberg trial after WW2 |
