Government forces operate AK-103. Even men of the Nigerian Police Force.

That picture you uploaded could have just been attached there. That's our Nigerian media do.

Edit : I found a topic with that picture from 2016. IMO, I'll say this was either bought from black market or taken during an ambush on NPF. [/quote
NPF were using AK103 since 2010-.Infact the first shipments were during the GEJ regime.]

NSCDC fields ak103 as well

I love the new tactical look of the troops in the front
I will suggest, Soldiers use for I.SO should also wear such to increase morale of civies in the military

What pro force refers to as its improvised combat vehicle seen on active deployment. indigenous companies saving lives

This may sound like it’s extremely lacking foresight but why can’t FG sell Dicon to a consortium of proforce, a special department of IVM dealing in military vehicles and a Chinese or south African defense company with adequate tech

FG has invested billions in that company over the past 2-3 years with nothing to show for it.

Invested billions in Dicon? That company looks like its worth nothing less than #150M

When it comes to design, Proforce has it.

Great design yes.
Just some questions if you have more details about the vehicle.
Are all doors and windows armored or it's engine protection and the rear casement protected?

Isnt it possible to have the back seat windows with similar holes you have at the passenger front seat? Or you think its not necessary?

When I have time I will take screenshots of 2016 and 17 FG budget for DICON, scrolling through it is a pain in ...

Interesting technicals being used by either Turkish SOF or FSA, firepower is key

Toyota hilux being used in the north east are armored. An AFSF once wrote a post on how it saved them during an intense battle with bokoharam where he claimed they (BHT) used human shield.

You mean the tint hole?

I hope they don't have anything except workers salary in 2018 budget.

pic 1, in 2016 4.914 billion
in 2017 total allocation 4.79 billion
2018 proposed 4.94 billion
thats aprox 5 billion Naira year in year out, several capital projects (APC assembly plant, beryl M762 rifle assembly plant) still existing only on paper.

I mean if you convert that money into USD I guess its not a lot so Federal government should quit being stingy and fund DICON with real money or sell it.

DICON has nothing to show with the previous billions. Yes the money isn't that much but then when you have nothing to show from billions you've been eating and you're not generating enough revenue then how will the government be impressed in funding them.

Thanks. No not tint hole
I meant the hole in the windshield on the passenger side. Seems for a gun though not sure.

NA SF POSES WITH RUFFLED FITTED WITH SOUND SUPPRESSOR.

I'm no prophet of doom, but I am pretty sure these weapons will be used on our soldiers within the next few weeks, unless they are destroyed by NAF. Almost every time Nigeria makes a gain with BHT, the terrorists find a way of looting a military base to reweaponise.

Yes I have also seen it before. Are you saying the vehicle doesn't originally belong to NA?

There's a difference in work ethics between private and public sectors. (Proforce vs DICON)
Proforce knows better than sitting on their asses all day.
That the guys and management (DICON) know that even if they put in half a shift, they'll still get paid at the end of the month.

The same attitude is replicated all over, NA, NAF et al. No urgency or uptake of lessons to make sure tomorrow is better than today.

Stolen from Niger or should I say gifted.
AFSF would be really busy these days
