Envy,will one day set your under PANT ablaze..jisss!!!.

meanwhile, don't forget to get one of the phones if you need a replacement.

Why should I envy a Chinese Sony clone? There's nothing Nigerian with that phone. It's a "stick your logo here" product.

I just realized disembarking might be a bit tricky, maybe it's not designed around "rapid response/ quick deployment" idea.

Chkil, have you guys adapted the Fuchs APC for local conditions?

Half of the German army’s armored vehicles in Mali—there as part of a multi-national peacekeeping mission—have broken down because of the West African country’s dust and extreme heat, according to Die Welt.

By land, the Bundeswehr relies on Wolf and Eagle jeeps, Fennek reconnaissance vehicles and TPz Fuchs armored personnel carriers to move around. But Mali’s heat—the country’s summer season lasts from March to May—has ruptured ties and damaged components, the newspaper reported.

Hatches and ramps weaken the hull. It is meant as a river patrol boat. Not sea assault, landing or special operations. It is basscally doing what the vrendenburg did back in the 80s. Only this time the boat carries more, is armoured, faster and over all better suted to the job. It will not do beach landings since it is not built for that.

The badger is still not been africanized and i heard the Leo2 all so was found wanting. These new sytems from America, Europe and even russia are not as tough as the old sytems. They built to fight in nice European country sides. Not the African bush.

The Bundeswehr is a meme these days.

Liberal politics is cancer for a military.

If you want to have a giggle, google German military readiness - there is an article from Der Speigel that shows how pathetic it is. Its beyond shocking, and there was no excuse because it was AFTER the Crimea crisis

Hell, just last year there was a story about how they were using broomsticks to simulate machine guns on armored vehicles for exercises because they didnt have enough working ones to go around.

this is not for streams and tiny rivers. But true rivers and lakes. Any case it still cant beach it self so a ramp or hatch is pointless and weakens it. But you see how the aft is open. The vredburg used to tow a rhib behind them to launch shore parties. As like this boat beaching is not the aim. Even if there was a ramp or hatch it would not be used.

The broom stick part is not true. German panzer wither tank or IFV train far with ammo. Most of the articals are ver ill in formed.

That's not correct. If you don't have an idea of what you talking about, ask first, don't just jump into conclusions.

GEJ did not mismanage anything, he actually ordered most of what we post here everyday. Our grouse is Nigerian leaders, Buhari double included performing below expectations.

For Germans they should be seriously concerned, there are verified reports that German Soldiers are not being trained properly on their equipment prior to leaving for Afghanistan and may have contributed to some of their KIA what is disconcerting about this ,they had time to prepare their APCs for AFRICA apparently this was not considered important enough, this is not good.

People love using the word jealousy, when confronted with simple facts. Plenty people/companies
on the African continent have "made" their own smartphones. So why be jealous of something you already have?
If the phone's micro processors, circuits, screen etc etc were made (designed) in Nigeria congrats. But we know the truth.

We know the truth, is that a fact? Didn't know you work for the company. Why can't people just shut it if you have no clue what you are talking about.
I can't say if the phone is 100% Nigerian made, which is why i won't call it a fact, neither do you. Enough already

What you can or cannot say is irrelevant. If you don't know what YOU are talking about you are more than welcome to shut

Not a tantrum at all. Simple facts.

https://techpoint.ng/2017/04/21/afrione-smartphone-assembly-nigeria/

"AfriOne Nigeria Limited launched Nigeria’s first assembly plant geared towards the manufacture of smartphones and other consumer devices. According to a spokesperson for AfriOne;

The fact that AfriOne range of smartphones are said to be the “first Nigerian-made smartphones”, is true to a certain extent. The assembly plant located along the Oshodi Expressway of Lagos state assembles smartphones and other devices from imported components."

the Chief of air staff reported in the video that the NAF is training 4000 recruit every year... thats alot. it clearly means that at that rate, in the last five years the NAF must have expanded by not less than 20,000 airmen.

He simply replied to the original poster. Putting "this is off - topic" isnt justified enough to add that in this threat. Especially coming from the person who complains about off topic posts. Otherwise people will be posting their "made in country X" articles and hiding behind "off topic". If this was a technology threat i would have clicked like, but its not.

At least when others post off topic its about a European military or new type of Russian sub, something along military lines.
