Henry240: The funny part of this is that Nigerians know the variant of MI-35 we are getting and there is no way Jf17 relates with helicopters. Mi-35 were delivered last year December but we're not inducted until 2-3 months after. I think we shouldn't discard the news. |

iblawi: That's the thing i find quite confusing. Although i initially discarded the news as junk journalism, i cannot say the Russians, Sputnik news, don't know the difference between a fighter or an helicopter. The news clearly states early this year. Like you rightly said, the MI-35m were delivered in November, not December. However, the Air Force told us they have received the helicopters and waiting to induct it. My question is, how come this coincidence. MI-35m deliveries are supposed to be completed in 2018, with 2 delivered. How come out of nowhere, we get the same figures for Su-30s with the same delivery timeline? If it is true, why not 18 minimum. Although i'm excited, but 12 seems too small. |

Henry240: For your questions, I remember the Nigerian delegation that went to Russia almost 2 years ago must have sealed the agreement for 12 of each. It's likely the JF17 deal is still alive. Am very sure of the JF17B variant cause I could read it from the reaction of the airforce guys when the pics were posted. All we can do is to wait. |

iblawi: It would be a waste of money if we go for both the Su-30 and JF-17 at the same time. I never touted that idea of going for the Su-30 and JF-17, even at Beegeagle's blog. Wasn't that deal for 12 MI-35m and 12 MI-17 terminators? I don't remember anything about Su-30s. Which Air Force guys, the ones who used to comment on this thread? They long deleted thier accounts before the JF-17B was launched. We cant have 11 units of F-7s, 12 units of Su-30s and another 18 units of JF-17. We are not India! Sorry Nemesis2u, pun intended. I still think it is a typographical error though. The reporter most likely meant MI-35m, not SU-30. The numbers are too close to be different orders. |

Henry240: i guess u will be leading the charge as commander in chief cant wait to see it happen given ur penchant for aesthetics it will more likely a fashion show type bloodless 'invasion' or appropriately 'parade on steroids' in highly hostile territory |

Henry240: If anyone wants to give you idea on something this secret am sure he won't give you exact info. Instead he will give something that will give you an idea of what you might see. This applies to beegeagle blog. The initial information was 6 MI-35M and 6 MI-17 which is another twist to the whole story. We only knew it was 12 MI-35 when CAS said it himself followed by Russian media. Yes, there was nothing about SU-35. They deactivated their accounts after the pics were posted. Remember airborne360 called in the other guy after the pics was posted. Bros we have no choice. We just have to be like the Indians. |

giles14: The funny part is the report claimed 2 have been delivered. This is another twist to the tales by moon light. The funny thing about the Air Force is that we never knew MI-35M was in this country until it was used in December 2016 in Sambisa. |
