Fynline: It's very good news. 10 LUH would definitely boost our Quick Reaction capabilities. I'm actually looking out for more gunships and attack helicopters. There's been a lull on information coming out of that angle. |

africaken254: This is the most significant news of this past week. A KAF Pararescue unit. So are we going to see more utility helos purchased by the KAF? |

Henry240:maybe or they will continue using some of its MI-171 and SA 330 Puma helicopters(most of them are nearing their end of their life span) ,what they seriously need is a utility transport air craft .i believe most of our DHC-5 Buffalo are retire or seriously unairworthy (bought them back in the 70's) |

Henry240: The EC 135 and Dolphin ara also recent, in the sense that they where just recently donated by NNPC TO NAF and they would be deployed to the NW theatre. According to what iblawi posted on the other thread ; 10 helicopters acquired and NNPC donated the ER135 & dolphin helo..? |

TURKEY’S ASELSAN IS SELLING 16 ASELPOD TARGETING PODS TO PAKISTAN Earlier in the month, Aselsan, one of Turkey’s main defence vendors, announced that it had secured a $25 million U.S. export sale for its ASELPOD advanced targeting pod.

africaken254: When we get to that bridge, we should be able to cross it, let's first see the JF-17s in NAF service. The 10 units of LUH we recently got is still very fresh in Nigerian minds. 3 Likes |

everyone dancing cos dey heard helicopters well congratulations to dem but if does choppers are not mi17 or d ec725 or at least black Hawks for the QRF dem I say sorry. dolphin choppers or ec145 are nothing but training choppers. so if we are buying choppers for the NAF let dem b big and rogue for QRFand small choppers will d for training. |

ViceAdmiral: Thanks for the images. I have been hunting and still hunting images of what else the ZDF brought to Amani Africa. The ZFB05 APCs you attached are Mozambican. You can just make out the flag below the number on the side. Moza has acquired quite a bit of light armour lately. Below is more Moza 1 Like

I've just been reading about the blue-on-blue incident when a T-72 of the NA 81 Battalion fired on a REVA APC of the 72 MSF, killing 3 (2 Saffers from STTEP). Lack of comms equipment increased the risk exponentially when the 2 rendezvoused after dark. It boggles the mind that after all this time, so many REVAs seemingly aren't spotting any comms antennas. Below are the only pics I've seen with comms.

africaken254: i remember reading somewhere Egypt , s.africa , Algeria want to buy it. though not sure on the authenticity of that news. also was going through Russian blogs , the guys there were saying brahmos against heavily defended targets like aircraft carriers uses the wolf pack mode ie they communicate among themselves and attack in a swarm. therefor i wonder maybe this is the reason behind the unusual heavy load-out (16 missiles) of brahmos in the new Indian destroyers. otherwise worldwide 8 surface to surface missiles r generally carried. 2 Likes |

africaken254: Exactly, makes you wonder. The Russians though, they are entirely on a whole other level when it comes to missiles. The BrahMos is so precise. |
