Kenya Military: 4 Extremists Killed Averting an Attack A Kenyan military official says soldiers killed four Islamic extremists from Somalia's al-Shabab rebels suspected to have been planning an attack on the coastal county of Lamu. Military spokesman Col. David Obonyo said Wednesday that Kenyan troops killed the fighters after pursuing them overnight. Obonyo said the extremists launched an exploratory attack on an army base Tuesday. He said a Kenyan soldier was wounded in the gunfight. Obonyo said a cache of weapons was recovered including an improvised bomb. Somali based al-Shabab militants have killed hundreds of Kenyans since Oct. 2011, when Kenyan troops were deployed to Somalia to fight the rebels. Last week al-Shabab killed five police officers in Mandera County in Kenya's north. link http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/kenya-military-extremists-killed-averting-attack-40221904 |

US seek Aerostat solution to provide (FMS) Kenya border security The U.S. Government is seeking sources who are able to supply approximate Pricing and Availability (P&A) data for planning purposes preceding acquisition by the country of Kenya of an aerostat system or systems through the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) process. The purpose of the aerostat(s) is border security. The intent is to hang a lightweight payload from the aerostat to include an electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) camera and radio re-transmission equipment. The system is to be transportable and not at a permanent fixed site. Radar is not currently planned as part of the sensor payload. The customer country has indicated that a 28 meter aerostat with a 1000 pound payload may be about the size of the system being considered.the link https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportunity&mode=form&id=26aa5cfc860aae737019fdd2976d669f&tab=core&_cview=0 1 Like |

DEATHMACHINE: Way way better, if it was the Streit it would have burst into flames. Same way policemen in Ebonyi state were killed inside their Streit APCs after 7.62 rounds cut through the vehicles armour. This Reva was hit by an RPG, and we can all see that apart from the fuel tank and electrical fittings, the vehicle can still enter combat. Infact i'm sure that after refurbishment is carried out in Bauchi they would be back in operatiions. 1 Like |

DEATHMACHINE: If the Nigerian army can commit to procuring 300 - 500 vehicles over the next 5years, TOT would definitely be a possibility. However at this point, I'll wait and not go forward with see, so we can first see the vehicle which would come out of the joint collaboration between Proforce and the Army. Going forward, the army has a lot of APCs it needs to replace both in tracked and wheeled configuration. A decent contract is on the cards. |

chinese8107: Unfortunately, one of the APCs produced by the Abu-Dhabi based company failed a ballistics test when policemen came in contact with armed robbers in Nigeria's South-East in 2013. The vehicle got penetrated by 7.62mm rounds. |

REVA FAV (Fast Attack Vehicle) Having looked at the REVA FAV, i truly think it's a very decent vehicle providing Speed, low observerability, decent situational awareness, protection and Air Transportability that would suit today's modern day Commando. I mean, if we look at the way the French operated in Mali, Special Forces Vehicles such as the Panhard SPV proved how efficient they(SPVs) are in quick deployment. The Reva FAV is built on a Ford chassis, it provides good protection, and is air-transportable my only issue with it is, it doesn't have a gun(MG) mount for the commander. It's a decent vehicle that should be marketered to Nigerian procurement teams. Just like the REVA III, REVA V and REVA Ambulance in Nigerian military service, the FAV could be a fantastic addition.
