[quote author=LTGEN post=71412870][/quote] Yes, prior orders remain unaffected but its potential orders in the future with the Russians as long as sanctions remains in place. I hear Turkey is next to feel the brunt for making an order while the RU exporter was sanctioned. |

Really can't understand our Britisher cousins sometimes. Having foolishly decoupled from the EU, they decide the old Commonwealth will be the replacement market. Then PM May goes on a 3-nation safari, makes an arse of herself and only focuses on trade discussions in only 1 country. In the other 2 she talks aid -despite Kenya's Uhuru Kenyatta's valiant efforts to steer the conversation towards trade; I can't make head or tail what Nigeria's Buhari's intent was. In the 21st century, the Britishers still haven't gone beyond beads, trinkets and mirrors.

Commonwealth total GDP = $6 trillion (subtract UK of course) India = $2.256 trillion Will absolutely fleece the UK in any trade deal. Canada = $1.529 trillion Not legally able to do any trade deal with the UK that negatively impacts any EU country (as per their EU trade deal, w which ironically includes the UK until nxt year) Australia = $1.258 trillion Same goes here as per the stipulations in the TTP trade agreement. That leaves about 1 trillion in the rest. Prey tell what the UK is going to export to these remaining countries ? Most of whom doesn't even have proper ports. Why would countries like SA,Nigeria and Brazil risk access to the $20 trillion EU market for a deal with Miss May ? The UK is in for a lost decade like Japans economy went through. frumentius: 2 Likes |

61mech:Yep. For example SA. We have a trade deal with the EU. Why on earth would we sacrifice that for the UK's smaller market? And they'll need House of Commons Acts to instrumentalise every single deal they negotiate in place of EU deals. And current polls indicate that based with what they now know, a sizeable majority would vote Remain. Folly of the greatest magnitude. I wager another referendum in the mid term. |

Greenandgold, can you just stroll by and shed some light on this mystery?: Lots of talk from the troops manning displays that the US brought an extra plane at night that was taken straight to one of the non-accessible to the public hangars and only special cavalcades are allowed in to see it. Over at http://www.saairforce.co.za/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9893&start=60#p120330 they've helpfully marked the only hangar the mystery plane could be kept ![]() ![]() ![]()

MINISTRY OF LABOUR ASSESSMENT TEAM PAYS VISIT TO NAFIL TAILORING WORKSHOP, COMMENDS NAF FOR REDUCING UNEMPLOYMENT AMONG YOUTHS The Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment has commended the efforts of the Nigerian Air Force Investment Limited (NAFIL) Tailoring Workshop at reducing unemployment among youths in the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Base and surrounding communities in Kaduna. The commendation was made yesterday, 21 September 2018, during an assessment tour of the Workshop by a Team from the Ministry led by the Director, Skills Development and Certification Department, Mr Ibrahim Jibia. The visit was to assess the facilities and overall environment of the Workshop for the purpose of accreditation to issue recognized certificates. Mr Jibia, who expressed satisfaction with the facilities at the workshop, stated that the Ministry would endeavour to certify the workshop so that its graduates would be accorded the desired recognition in the labour market. Conducting the team round the facility, the Managing Director NAFIL, Air Vice Marshal Abubakar Bagare, who was represented by the Deputy Managing Director, Air Commodore Uchechi Nwagwu, stated that the workshop was commissioned by the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Baba Abubakar, on 8 June 2017, with the aim of domesticating the sewing of NAF uniforms. He disclosed that prior to the establishment of the Workshop, NAF uniforms were imported from abroad or contracted to local vendors at very high cost. This domestication, he said, has significantly reduced overall cost for the NAF thereby generating savings for the Service that could be channeled to other pressing needs. He further stated that about 52,000 pairs of various types of NAF uniforms had been sewn in the workshop. Apart from sewing uniforms for the NAF, Air Commodore Nwagwu disclosed that NAFIL Tailoring Workshop also sews uniforms for some major security outfits as well as other private organisations, such as Baze University in Abuja, whilst also training tailors from within and outside the Base. With a total staff strength of 106, comprising an officer, 37 airmen/airwomen and 68 civilians, the workshop runs round the clock in 3 shifts with 92 different types of industrial cloth-making machines.

frumentius: The Brits have been overtaken by new realities so comprehensively those who see the big picture must still be in shock. Here they used to supply military equipment without tenders,unbelievable as that sounds. Our Vosper Thorneycraft,Hunters and Vickers 3 all came at that time. Ishyt changed in 2003 and they tried to bribe us with the Mk 1 SA 80,whose mag often fell out (no ishyt!) and the 120 mm Vickers 7 a nd a frigate rebuilt around a 2nd hand engine. On hearing,"thanks but no thanks!,"they did their best to undermine the Kibaki gov and nearly succeeded-luckily we're resilient but many of ns will never forget. Now there's Su 25s,L 15s,Chinese and Indian hulls all at a better price,btw. In a truly competetive market,Johnny Brit is fcvked! Btw,are there destroyers still tied up at home? 1 Like |
