Biafran Red Devil. Considered one of the greatest feats of the Biafrran Research and Production Unit. What made this Armoured tank a feat was it was designed like a armoured personal carrier tank but equipped with hidden high powered anti tank guns with ability to shoot targets with precision from all angles at 360 degrees. How Biaffran Biafrran Research and Production Unit got to know about this esoteric technology in 1960s when it was only known by a few western powers...TILL THIS DAY REMAINS A MYSTERY! 134 Likes 17 Shares

Biafrran Armoured Personnel Carrier Tank. Compare this rare circular tank design with the alien saucer-shaped spacecraft in the link below. Were the Biaffran Research and Production Unit trying to do some reverse engineering? Remember this was designed and manufactured in 1960s when the whole of Africa was in technological darkness. http://www.rickrichards.com/ufo/UFO3.htm 86 Likes 13 Shares

Picture 1. Another of Biafrran tank. This white lady can't believe what she is seeing. Picture 2 and 3: Uncompleted project: Biafran submarines nearing completion before the war ended. Can be seen at the Museum in Umuahia. picture 4: Biafran converted bomber aircraft. Some non bomber fighter aircrafts were converted into a weaponized/bomber fighter jet by the Biafran engineers and scientists. Most of these were destroyed/incinerated after the war by the Nigeria military during the bombing of Uli Airport. However few of the Biafran engineers and scientists who went into exile with the conversion prototype, replicated the aircraft in early 2000s without the wing bombers.

With all this metal scraps yet biafra still woefully lost the war, which simply makes technology not the sole means of winning a country backed by Britain and Soviet union. If Biafra had built more of Airborne vehicles and rockets that could haul payloads and hit with precision, targets that are more than 100 km away in dodan barracks, Kano, Kaduna etc possibly the war could have been prolonged, if biafra had mastered the art and technology of building under ground tunnels with fish ponds , poultry farms, water purification plants, refined pharmaceutical plants , nuclear power stations, nuclear arsenals, nuclear powered submarines that could blow up all the naval ships of the invaders, biafra would definitely have won the war after just 6 days. Any body promoting biafra must be a mad and insane person. Igbos should just be contented in nigeria 127 Likes 15 Shares |

Biafrran heavily crafted crude oil refining column called Biafran pot. Pay attention to the precision of the welds and metal quality. Over Hundreds of these were manufactured, along with series of piping manifolds, brought refined oil...diesel, kerosene, fuel and aviation fuel for military, government, public and private use. Mere looking at it, it may seem like a simple design, wait until you visit the museum and physically inspect it to appreciate the work of these geniuses. All of the valves you see are a function of distillation process that separates the crude into derivative constituent fuels; each valve streaming out diesel, kerosene, fuel, e.t.c. 227 Likes 19 Shares

Ojukwu Bunker in Umuahia. When western delegates visited this bunker after the war, they were shocked that blacks could build such a sophisticated bunker with air control and ventilation systems as far back as 1960s...a technology only known to top western countries at the time. These Biiiafran engineers were way ahead of their time! The civil war was not only a secession war, it was a war of technology; to stop Biiiafra technology prowess and ascendence before it's too late! 174 Likes 18 Shares

Nkem4040: The ogbunigwe is my favourite of all biafran weapons, this weapon was used by an unknown major jonathan uchendu to wipe out the entire 2nd division of the nigerian army on march 31 1968, killing more than 5900 soldiers of the army leaving murtala mohammed and a few soldiers to narrowly escape after which murtala mohammed proceeded on a self imposed exile to Britain where he was a until the end of the war. This weapon was purely a biafran invention and has no western world replica 312 Likes 24 Shares |

PaulIdu: The information is not hidden at all it is there on the Internet https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abagana_Ambush So devastating was the brutal slaughter of the 2nd division of the army that murtala mohammed was relieved of his command of any division and went on a self imposed exile . The ogbunigwe was again used to halt the advance of the nigerian army during the operation o.a.u All though through combat means the biafra forces again reduced the size of the 3rd Marine Commando commanded by Benjamin Adekunle from 35000 to a mere 300 soldiers. 219 Likes 14 Shares |

PaulIdu: It wasn't a grenade launcher per se, but the Biafrran military re-engineered the ogbunike into an unknown technology that they refused to disclose till this day. It was done in such a way that the damage will ignite a chain reaction and evidently catastrophic. Yes the guy you replied is right in the casualty, though I think it was more. It was the most deadly military loss ever encountered by the Nigerian military. I mean thousands of Nigerian military personnel and hundreds of armoured vehicles entering Abagana in a convoy in excess of 50km stretch were incinerated, and most died instantly. How Muritila Mohammad and his crew escaped, remains a mystery. This attack was led by Hannibal of Biafrra General Joe Achuzia in an operation code-named HEROSHIMA. We don't lie here, we provide evidence; pictures or video.

Nkem4040:Prof Gordian Ezekwe was the person who pioneered the biafran mobile refineries several light years before the world started talking about modular refineries , so effective were the refinery that there was no shortage of petroleum products and there was no importation of petroleum products into biafran soil, biafra powered all its war machines with their fuel unlike nigeria that relied on imports and still till date rely on subsidised Imported fuel. Biafran engineering invented modular refineries and mobile refineries which the world is even yet to contemplate. 173 Likes 13 Shares |

What baffled me till this day was all of these sophisticated weapons and inventions were carried out in 1960s within a very short time, we are talking about 3yrs...so the Igbos knew all these then? Just imagined had Nigerian government absorbed all of the B!afran engineers and scientists. I know IBB pleaded with Prof Ezekwe to lead the ministry of science and technology but never disclosed much as a minister...his heart was with B!afra I guess.Lol 187 Likes 18 Shares |

Those were parts bought from the international market and crudely put together by the Biafrans. If those parts were indeed made in Biafra what happened to the foundries that made the parts? Did anyone destroy any factory after the war? I don't understand why people are lying to themselves. 82 Likes 6 Shares |

Aigbofa: **** you need heavy machineries to make those parts abi? If B!afrans engineers and scientists reasoned like your amala brain, they would not have manufactured a simple device. Whenever Ojukwu will tell them to manufacture a weapon or device for the survival of the B!afran nation...they will all reply with your amala thinking brain " WE NEED HEAVY MACHINERIES TO MANUFACTURE THAT DEVICE" ****You see why Igbos don't reason like you people? **** Go and see if Innoson uses heavy machineries to manufacture aviation parts for Nigerian Air force. Only if you will travel out of your amala region to Nnewi...do you know that cars and trucks mechanical parts that most Nigerians use...gear box, fuel pumps, water pumps, transmissions are manufactured in Nnewi and branded as made in Japan? Go and tell Abdsulami Abubakar he doesn't know what he was saying when he visited Nnewi last week. 341 Likes 44 Shares |

kettykin: Sometimes you talk without deep research and reasoning. One reason we lost the war, was because no one knew how to build ammunitions technology If the Biafrans, knew how to produced bullets and shells, the money they spent importing one bullet, would have been used to produce 100 local bullets/shells. The capacity to produced 100 local bullets/shell for one foreign bullet/shell, would have meant more bullets/shells for Biafra troops. So the technology that we lacked that rendered Biafra weak is the bullet/shell technology and also jet engine technology Till today, bullet/shell technology and jet engine technology are yet to be developed. 23 Likes 4 Shares |
