You can also fire those grenades manually by the nr. Which makes them function just like any other smoke grenade. No info in that pic that indicates it had a laser pointing at it. chkil: |

rugged7: I absolutely love the videos. This means, the photos i earlier shared are from this operation. The Beechraft is doing tight efficient job, and from the ISR video it is obvious the recon pod is from one of the newly installed pods on the new Beechrafts. I don't think that's feasible, considering the distance and target importance. A well directed strike from a fighter jet and follow-on confirmation from a loitering ISR asset is substantial. I just can't wait for NAF JF-17s to come in, my hope is they come with "Targeting Pods" for better more precise boko decimation. |

To the contrary Oga henry. I actually think it's very feasible. We have to start thinking outside the box. Well-fortified airfield FOB's stationed equi-distant from BHT hotspots with Tucanos, transport helicopters and QRF regiments will serve this purpose well. This also shortens reaction time for Nigerian army firebases on the country's borders. The sad loss of life in Niger republic of 30 Nigerien soldiers and 2 Nigerian soldiers could easily have been avoided... Eyes in the sky with ISR is useful, but at a point, you will require boots on ground for clean up...Shikena Henry240: |

rugged7: I disagree bruv. Wait..... Didn't you say you didn't care about the Tucano? ...... LMAO!! The way air operations are currently structured makes a lot of sense to me, and don't see why we should change it. For the missions carried out by the F-7s, Helicopters aren't actually required. This isn't CAS. The Air Force doesn't at this point need to stretch it's already stretched assets, and i do not believe the helicopters or "hypothetical Tucanos" can be adequately protected. At this stage, the situation on the ground is still fluid and cannot be forecast. Nigerian troops were stationed just 25km from the target area, so mop up photos should in a couple of days be released by the Army. What we need at this point is a modern aircraft like the JF-17 which can carry upto 9 MK-83 bombs, and has 2 times the range of the F-7. |

Henry240:I've never seen any KDF comando wearing fast helmet, that pic posted by Africaken254 is first ever seen thou his no wearing it... The special forces have been reinventing/upgrading themselves over a couple of years behind the scenes its not strange to see them with new acessories that we din know they had every once in a while... Usually they use regular chinies made combat helmets,
