Opinion: Should images like this be shared?

Is this the image your military wants "people" to have in their minds when they remember their hero? Body bag!

the army has become more open in this campaign and this pic being circulated has even made Nigerians understand the sacrifice the military and country is making.

everyone is talking about it and in solidarity with the military.

it's a propaganda W for the army cos BH bragging about this won't mean anything.

we must go offensive...

make cross-border deals with all ecowas nations....declare state of the emergencie till the gates of libya..

we must push the battle fronts out of west-africa....the final battle can only be in libya...not in nigeria...

i hope you know that the army are fighting people they dont know...its not like boko haram soldiers have 'boko haram insurgents tattooed in their forehead......once they are into niger, they could spread out and to your surprise thesame insurgents you know wilk turn to civilians, enter back to nigeria through our porous borders, regroup again and continue their attacks.



its not as easy as you say it

MikeCZA:
Work?

They have been utilised for many decades. And have proven their worth in reccon, raiding etc.

Look at how they have been used today. Most of those recon units have dedicated air support. In the roads I've seen, all the commandos dismount and conduct operations on foot. Call in air support, and leave.

The vehicles aren't actually used per say.

No, just no.

What are you screaming no for? State ur opinion and stop screaming like a Jack A.

TrueHeart365:


this is not the place to display your ignorance.

it's not a must to comment especially when you have nothing sensible to contribute.

stop trolling this thread

what??...i am absolutly not derailing the thread..i dont have photos...so what??...

should i upload photos of ameriacan hardware and russian hardware and lie the are sub-saharan somehow...??

your job is to produce photos,when you have..

my job is to analyse situations to minimize the risks...

we both have our purpose...dont be insultive calling me troll,and i counter back abusing you too...

thedarkside:


but am i allowed to say my opinion to global-military-situations..??..

This is the global military thread. We also all comment there. The essence of having multiple threads is for conformity, uniformity and detail. There's also an African discussions thread were you can take your African discussions to.

Not a warship

I knew not to waste my time when OPV became a warship. You're a far more patient man.

190 MKII Fouladou, Senegal OPV

Very beautiful boat!

nice ship but would prefer d Nigeria Navy go for d P18N den out fit it with similar weapons like d sigma

你们看见尼日利亚的舰艇吗？
have you all seen nigeria's new naval vessel?

The Sigma, especially the Frigate is a big beautiful ship. Have you seen the Sigma Frigates built for Indonesia?"...... They are crazy beautiful.


The 190 MKII Fouladou is beautiful, however it is unlikely that we would buy ships of her class, very unlikely. Instead, the navy would go for Corvettes and Frigates. The Type 056 obviously is a contender. If we can add Sigma Frigates also, that would be nice, although i hear they are quite expensive.


For the OPV 190 MK II, it's something we can build. From the experience gained from building the Karaduwa, Andoni and Ugwu, we should naturally progress to building vessels like the Fouladou. We still do need a lot of patrol ships.

We need at least 3 more ships in the same class as the Karaduwa and Fouladou.

We've been seeing the ship since before the vessel left China.

yea d sigma is a beautiful craft but she is too lightly armed, so am say instead of buying d sigma I will just get d P18N den arm it with d sigma weapon system
