Henry240:How stealthy is NNS centenary? It doesn't seem to negate right angles by its design which is one crucial criteria ? |

Man, as Africans we need to rely task ourselves and get building a significant portion of the equipment we use in defence. I mean, look at Chile, a country of only 18 million people( Lagos State in Nigeria has a larger population than the entire Chile), building massive size ships for their navy. The best part is, they aren't trying to re-invent any wheel. They are building German Ships from Fassmer, under license in Chile, and are also exporting same Ships to countries such as Colombia. In Indonesia, their shipbuilding company partnered with Damen of the Netherlands to build Frigates in-country. I find it unfortunate that these countries, although they have some advantages in the number of years they've been independent and have very decent per capita are building ships such as the above, while in Nigeria, it takes the Nigerian Navy 4 years each to build, one(1) 31 meters Coastal patrol boat(CPV), One (1) 40 meters CPV and another 4 years to build 1 Tug boat. Culminatively 12 years to build 3 boats. We really need to look at the methods we do things on this continent, Countries need to pull their weights as they are massively under-performing. My 2 Kobo. |

tdayof: It is very stealthy, according to the developers(CSOC), this 92 meters ship turns up as a small boat on Radar. |

Henry240:This is a nice write up. However, the countries you mentioned are countries who are willing to invest and improve her capability. These are countries ready to invest in R & D without minding the amount spent even tho it results into a failed project. First of all i do not know much about ships but i will take my own opinion on our aircraft. I take gulma UAV as something not too special. I have seen fellow Nigerian Aerospace students build much more advanced UAV and radar systems for their UAV's here in my school. Nigerian government should be able to invest in students like this and try reverse engineering with UAV, military jets and even radar systems. How much will it cost the government to buy a UAV for practical reasons. International students are banned from using some labs and engineering centers in my school because Nigerian students were able to win their host in a particular aerospace engineering competition. I guessed that's why some of our jets were demilitarized so much to some extent. Nigerians, we are really talented and I just hope the government can encourage us. We are really shining , doing our best but the government seems not to notice anything . 2 Likes |

tdayof:Till date I do not understand what is actually wrong here..For instance,The NDDC&NNPC gives MSc&PhD scholarship to Nigerians so as to boost self reliance in petroleum engineering and the likes I wonder what goes on in other sectors..I bliv if at least each arm of the military sidelines about 10% of its budget into growing its respective projects..a bit of turnaround will set in |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by tdayof(m): 3:28pm On Aug 04, 2016 |
Odunayaw:Exactly. You know what I feel like there is someone at the top who prefers Nigeria buying her military hardware so he or she can see something to take from it than the government investing in talented Nigerians for us to be able to manufacture and produce to other countries. I actually think the root of this issue is corruption. |

Royal Air Force Regiment’s 5 Force Protection Wing Supports NAF in base protection and security RAF Regiment supports Nigerian Forces in counter – terror training Nigerian Air Force discussing the plan with RAF Regiment. Personnel from the Royal Air Force Regiment’s No 5 Force Protection Wing (5 FP Wg) recently returned from Nigeria, where they helped train the Nigerian Air Force to protect its personnel and aircraft involved in counter-insurgency fighting. A team from 5 FP Wg and 51 Squadron RAF Regiment, usually based at RAF Lossiemouth in Moray, deployed to Nigeria to deliver bespoke military training at the request of the British Military Advisory and Training Team (BMATT) in Nigeria Working with the RAF Force Protection Centre at RAF Honington, 5 FP Wg designed a programme to train 100 newly qualified airmen and 8 officers of the Nigerian Air Force Regiment to defend Nigerian Air Force forward operating bases involved in the fight against insurgent activity in Nigeria. RAF Regiment trainers also mentored their Nigerian counterparts at the Nigerian Air Force Ground Training Centre so that they can replicate the RAF Regiment’s training, and to enhance their own training capability for the future. Wing Commander John Rees, Officer Commanding 5 FP Wg, led the RAF Regiment’s training team. He said: “We had a great, traditional welcome from the Nigerian staff and Air Force personnel when we arrived at the base. Everyone was very accommodating – helping us to settle in to our facilities and getting the training areas prepared. “The senior Nigerian Air Force officers were fully committed and supportive of us as we began to deliver this busy and exciting programme of training. As well drawing on our expertise and experiences from recent combat operations to provide this training, we were able to learn from the Nigerian Air Force personnel as they combat terrorist threats.” Training happened in three phases. During the Foundation training package, RAF Regiment instructors worked to confirm and enhance the Nigerian Air Force Regiment’s life-saving ‘ground-sign awareness skills’. During this phase, Nigerian Air Force Regiment officers were given focused training on planning for force protection operations. Nigerian Air Force counting scores with RAF Regiment. The next phase included minefield extraction training, vehicle and personnel searches and the ability to locate and react to improvised explosive device strikes and indirect fire attacks. RAF Regiment instructors also refreshed their counterparts’ navigation skills and delivered battlefield exercises and training. Nigerian personnel also went through exercises to enhance the ‘soft skills’ needed by Nigerian Air Force Regiment teams working among villages on counter-insurgency operations. The final phase of training included a physically and mentally demanding four-day exercise, based on all the training the Nigerians had received to date. Wing Commander Rees said: “The exercise was as realistic as we could make it to test and confirm the training we were able to provide to the Nigerian Air Force through the British Military Advisory Training Team. “We’re grateful for the support provided by the Nigerian Air Force in enabling us to make the most of the short term training task. Our RAF Force Protection instructors have provided a professional and challenging bespoke training package that has drawn on the RAF Regiment’s operational experiences. We have worked closely with the Nigerian Air Force to enhance the counter-insurgency skills needed to combat terrorists that threaten this, and neighboring countries.” http://www.raf.mod.uk/news/archive/raf-regiment-supports-nigerian-forces-08032016 4 Likes

rugged7:Mr RUGGED7 Thank you for the update as painful as it might sound the Nigerian Armed Forces needs up dated skills and appropriate training. The boko haram insurgency has shown especially with the attack on the MAIDUGURI AIRPORT which costs Nigeria two of it's latest MI-35 in 2014 how unprepared the Nigerian Armed Forces really were. Nigeria needs to really hone the skills of their nascent QRF of the NAF that are just beginning to come into existence , they must be brought up to speed due to the troubled clouds ahead both in the North east (DRY SEASON) and the N-Delta. |

LTGEN:I hope to see the NAF QRF collaborating with SSW of the Pakis.....those guys have some skills we direly need |

patches689: Yeah, i noticed they look like Nazis, what an odd choice of uniform. Are they German descendants, the Chileans? Anyway, my point about their Naval shipbuilding is, they are trying to invent any wheel. Instead are partnering with the Germans, that shouldn't be difficult to execute from an African perspective. 1 Like |
