@henry240 @jakeporeshenko @odunayaw I saw this variant of AK with Soldiers serving under 'Operation Delta Save' at the creeks last week and yesterday night too at 146 battalion calabar. I thought its being uses by rangers alone?. Are we gradually seeing the faze out of the obj006 Ak47? What is the update on the total over haul of the primary rifle of the NA? Cos I learnt dicon will soon start production of the beryl rifle.

ukemeramat: That's the 7.62x39 mm ARSENAL AR-M1, it's supposed to be the exclusive reserve of NA Rangers, but it seems it is now beginning to be more widely used. I don't think the AK-47s are widely used by the Nigerian army. What i think we usually see is the AKM. If they are gradually been replaced with the AR-M1, i don't know, but i hope so. It's in the budget, the production line for the Beryl M762 is currently being set-up. 2 Likes 1 Share |

kikuyu1:I remember those days, there was some kind of arms race,--then AMISOM happened and priorities shifted... I've seen a couple of sites with SA-11 for Kenya but on the gunship(Mi-28) story that was started by 'David Golman' the Israeli guy i have never believed that one.. |

newafricaken254:Yep, looks like the image, strangely enough SIPRI doesnt have that one , i though they caught most of the arms transfers except for small arms.. Makes me wonder what else they could have missed.. Anyway, looking at the current commander of Kenya Airforce, wonder what he has brought to the table so far, he studied Advanced Air Defence Systems

H kikuyu2:ha! There are somethings that can be hidden from the public.... But other things cannot, especially in a small country like ours... You cannot hide a fighter jet! nor can you hide a rotary like Mi-28.. Esp the Mi-28, there is absolutely no strategic reason to keep it a secret... I rem talking to Africaken b4 we officially received the huey II , some days b4 it was announced that they had arrived in kenya, we had already noticed that there were different engines that the sounds we normally hear in the skies.... For me its harder to imagin that possibility than to imagin we don't have any, but its not a secrete that we were interested in acquiring maybe the cost was too much or something... Besides, if we really had them, where were they during eladde? The somali residents in somalia are so used to airstrikes that they can tell you outright if an airstrike is carried by US or Kenya... Anyway, I will bring you some article that will continue to fuel that notion of secretly running some 4th gen somewhere in the 254

Fidha254: Mwenzangu,i'm not a believer in things and go strictly by sight,facts and figures. The Havocs aren't at 50 ACB but in Laikipia-yes,they've been seen but they fly higher than usual. You saw my links? El Adde was a special event;a one off,a series of cascading tactical blunders that were so complete not even a squadron of hovering KA 50s would've saved those guys. I can tell you it was field tested simultaneously with the Havoc and the army wanted both but budget realities stuck the KDF with one Havoc squadron of 16. |

kikuyu2:That wastn a file, that was me trying to comment from my phone that results into that, I swear one of these days I will smack this window phone, absolutely useless, it has been happening since I upgraded to Win.10, I planning to degrade to 8.1... Anyway back to subject This article from a turkish newsite
one day I was surfing online minding my own bussiness, readind about the conflict with AH and boom, I can't bilieve what I just read, so I sit upright and read again from the top, did he say f-16 ![]() Eventually I calm down and think abit using simple logic just to convince myself... 1. In every National celebration where there is a fly-by/fly-past the MC always describes our fighters, f-5 fighter jets then he begins to describe them, so anyone who has listed on radio, watched on tv, or live of any national celebration should know what jets we operate... 2. Maybe the guy was mistaken, maybe the guy came across some magazine that mentioned the f-16 and since then that is the only fighter he knows so when he was interviewd, he din't want to look clueless so he mentioned the only jet he knows... 3. On the other hand, the guy is a county govt official, obviously he is educated or rather 'enlightened' enough... Mandera county govt also regularly sits down with security apparatus do discuss the security of that region so he knows more that me or you about a thing or two, so maybe.... just maybe he did actually mean f-16 when he said it.. Eventually I came to the conclusion that even somewhere between the county official, the author or editor of the article must have made a mistake or added their own things.... But hey, its up to anyones interpretation, you can keep feeding the beast of those rumors if you want to... As for me, I decided log time ago- Like that toilet cleaner advert goes" I will only believe it when I see it"
