Collosal loss for Nigeria , but the operation to rid Nigeria off the vermin of terrorism must continue, and unabated.

NIGERIAN AIR FORCE REPELLED BOKO HARAM TERRORIST ATTACK ON OWN GROUND FORCES AT KANGARWA Nigerian Air Force (NAF) fighter aircraft yesterday repelled attack by the Boko Haram Terrorists (BHTs) on own ground troops at Kangarwa in northern Borno State. Following the report of the attack, 3 x fighter jets and a reconnaissance aircraft were immediately deployed for the operation. While the fighter aircraft were scrambled to repel the attack, the Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft was deployed to give guidance to ground troops on the position equipment and strength of the BHTs. The operation which started at about 1700 hours (5pm) continued till late evening at about 1915 hours (7:15pm) before the attack was successfully repelled. Before repelling the attack at Kangarwa, the NAF also conducted a number of day and night operations yesterday. The air interdiction missions were aimed at decimating the operational capability of the insurgents. The operations were carried out at Kashimeri, Tumbu Gini, chukugudu and other BHT strongholds from where the insurgents launch attack on Bama and neighbouring settlements. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KcD8jvMc60 1 Like

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 10:25pm On Nov 07, 2016 |
tdayof: The Nigerian army requires it's own attack air wing. A dedicated air wing. This is also were i agree with @Rugged7, instead of churning daily doses of propaganda and blame, the Buhari government should have facilitated and fast tracked a quick delivery of equipment. We all knew the dry season was coming, with the dry season hostilities between the Nigerian army and BHT would resume. This wasn't unexpected. |

Henry240:pls wen are we going to buy d A29 ,it will b needed in dis dry season |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 11:16pm On Nov 07, 2016 |
Henry240:Linear=Straight, well that's basically all i really understood! Maybe he meant that the F-7 is fast in a straight line?? They always talk about interceptors needing excellent linear speed/Straight line speed!! But personally ive never heard of a Linear Interceptor |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 11:17pm On Nov 07, 2016 |
giles14:You wont really need the Super Tucano if you're buying the JF-17, but if you're going for a dedicated COIN aircraft, IMO Nigeria should invest in the ARHLAC, it would cost half of what the Tucano costs and has a longer range and endurance, it also has more hard-points and can take-off from a 550m runway when fully loaded, max payload is also only slightly less than that of the A29!

jln115:really ,pls d A29 is a machine on it's own, we need both crafts for different purposes. pls in detailed form,hw would d ARHLAC favor Nigeria in coin ops than d A29 2 Likes |

Henry240: What type of equipment are we expecting from the army now? What type of attack helicopter is the army planning to get too. Those technical went somewhere, I guess the NAF tracked them down. |

Henry240: yes i can 100% confirm u r going to see a dedicated army aviation wing . lot of things have to be done other than buying before establishing the same. ur army guys r all the place looking to benefit from other countries army aviation experience/SOPs etc. it will take some time . but the order/intent is clear. 4 Likes |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 12:56am On Nov 08, 2016 |
giles14:Much cheaper, better range, better endurance, more hard-points, can take off from a 550m runway. Also the very real possibility that Nigerian companies can partner with paramount in the further development of the ARHLAC which would include local manufacturing of the aircraft as well! |

tdayof:This is where shit leaves me bananas its like the army HQ doesn't have a wish list or something ! at least by now we shld be above the "we plan for air wing"...we need to start seeing wish list these toads call bloko hardrams r beginning to grow pubic hair and we must shave both hair and skin!!! |

Odunayaw: Judging by the video posted, our ground troops were being covered by some sort of barricade in circle therefore making it easy for the Airforce. However, the I don't like this African aircraft or so.. Lol
