Okay, Algeria will cruise into Nigerian territory with 4 hrs and whoop us, got it. Yawn, now moving on. If only wars were cheap or easy. 3 Likes |

Lol. Slow your role brother, Algeria vs Nigeria? No any foreign intervention assuming given clean passage through Niger. Still I tell you it's going to be a big logistical nightmare to them. If they amass at our border for how long can they sustain the intensity. I'm also of the opinion that the Nigerian army is not as it use to be but can the Algerian army project its war machine over a very long distance and sustain it? Logistics, logistics bro. I have a big doubt on that. SupremeCourt: |

Algeria attacking nigeria funny . algerian army cant agress or even have operations outside our borders its an important article of algerian constitution . Algerian diplomats were kidnapped in 2012 in mali . the terrorist bases were not too far from the Algerian borders and yet, despite the demands Algerian army refused to bomb their bases. the same for the attack on the gas site by terrorists from Libya in 2013 . the army refused to strike or to send troops to libya near borders to clean the area . as for the war with Morocco. Algeria was in a defensive position . morocco try to invade a part of algerian territory in 1963 few month of algerian independancy . so its normal . .even if algeria sent a full brigade (3000 troops, 128 tanks . 670 vehicles . 12 howters ect...) to support egypt in 73 . it took them 13 days .( 12 to 25 october) they arrived the last day of war with cease-fire accords . because egyptian lanched war alone without waiting . + two squadrons mig 21, + one squadron su 7 + one squadron mig 17 that arrived first days of war Another logistic episode was the match between algeria egypt in sudan 2009 when algerian air force transported 20.000 algerians fans to sudan in less than 48 h . But attacking a big country like nigeria .200 millions population . Just impossible ! 14 Likes 2 Shares |

Zoharariel: Even if there is no official reports of the iskander contract and no pic of the system in algeria ( its not something to show in exercise) . and there is only some russian non official news about thos contract. but the iskander-E have only 280 km range and max 500 km for russian one version . its nice for a war against near country (morocco for exemple all their major base are in the range) but nigeria is 1000 km from algerian borders . useless 2 Likes |

blacKDalia: Nobody said Algeria is coming tomorrow, we are talking of possibility, fact remains that Algerian light utility armoured vehicles need only 4 hours to reach Nigeria, Algerian tanks and ifvs need only 8 hours to reach Nigeria. The wont mass at border, they will roll over us like Germany rolled over France because of wide gap in superiority. Why cant they sustain 1 hour flight from border to border with their plenty c-130 and ilyushi 76 air cargo transport? How did Boko Haram sustain war tempo on Nigeria for 6 years without any air force c-130? If Nigeria cannot do things, does not mean other countries too will fumble, Algeria has more than enough to wreck havoc on us. 5 Likes 1 Share |

ugo4u: Bros what will I gain convincing you? I write my facts, I leave you to enjoy ego and ignorance if you choose. Proving points on Nairaland wont increase my monthly salary, its a waste of time. So all of you cannot google distance calculator and do technical map reading? Distance never depend on who argues better, its geography existing on ground that you and me cannot change. Algeria to Nigeria shortest distance is border town Niger Republic Assamakka to Birnin Konni, north to south straight line, it's land elevation, vegetation, and topography map shows flat land terrain semi-desert, not heavy sand desert or mountains and rocks that you all imagine in your heads, also there is government paved good road from Assamakka to Birnin Konni for half of the way. Google Distance Calculator; proves from border Nigeria to border Algeria at shortest point is max 550 km. Algerian tigr amoured vehicles has speed 140 kmh, with kornet atgm it can destroy anything in Nigerian army. At that speed it takes only 4 hours do reach Nigeria non-stop short 4 hour drive, or why should they stop when no natural barrier exists on that shortest route? I chose to use the max speed, safe way threat is assessed, you look at max capability of opponents, you dont underestimate. Things dont become impossible because one million people imagine it cant be done. If you tell Nigerians in 1940 that America will land go to space, land a man on the moon, and come back to our planet, Nigerians will say impossible, no man leaves this world and comes back alive, the hot sun will roast him, or he gets lost in space. It's the reason we cannot build a great country for almost 60 years now, while others nations find it easy. The pic below is the Niger desert that you all imagine is a hell way impossible to travel full of obstacle crossings that you all created there 7 Likes 1 Share

Algerian1: Get first point, nobody here said Algeria will attack Nigeria. Get that point clear dont twist my words. Second, Algeria is not 1,000 km away its 550 km from Nigeria at shortest point border to border. I used accurate google distance calculator. Population does not mean we cannot be defeated, are the 200 million people all soldiers and all armed for war? Israel with population of 3 million defeated combined Arab nations of 100 million and pursued fleeing Egyptian army almost into Cairo. When a stronger country beats you properly you will run, all your population will run to do refugee across border. Did millions of Nigerian not flee to Chad, Cameroon, Niger when Boko Haram pushed out our army? Why is big population not making Boko Haram to stop attacking us in Borno? What I said is, no wise country will have Nigeria's money $50 billion forex reserve, and be armed with 43 old 1982 t-72 tanks that have been confirmed by NA to fire twice and gun jam stoppage, till enemy enters our base to blow up our tank. Nigeria should not sleep at ease with 43 useless half expired t-72 tanks 1970s technology and watch Algerian army loaded with some 400 t-62, 400 t-72, 500 t-90, 300 bmpterminator, 10,000 guided anti-tank missiles, iskander ballistic missiles, s-300 sam, bm-smerch, buratino flame-thrower, 1,000, fauchs afv, 1,000 btr and bmp ifvs all with missiles, now German puma ifv, all 550km away from our border. I decide to leave Algeria's 50 su-30 flankers with some 2,000 missiles and guided bombs out of the discussion, I want the fools to forget that it's there and talk foolish I said what if they decide in future to attack Nigeria (leave the reason to justify war, Yemen never imagined UAE will invade them today). We are just being human to say we cannot tell the future, so are we prepared to defend against Algeria? Today Algerian constitution that says no foreign military adventure, but it was not in the law until after some years that they made the law, but what if they change that law in 5 years time? During Nigerian civil war 1967, one side looked like 100% Christian but the other side was like 50% Christian ~50% Muslim. Algeria took sides and sent us squadron of Algerian air force fighter jets to Muslim side of Nigeria against the fully Christian side, I don't know if Algeria gave us pilots, but we had North African Arab pilots flying those Algerian intervention jets, people said the pilots were Egyptian but Algerian look like Egyptians. There is record of Algerian military heavy weapons being sent by Algeria into Nigeria in a war to kill Nigerians/Biafrans. All the fools here saying Algerian massive weapons stock being used against Nigeria is imaginary impossible nonsense idea, those Nigerian fools that don't read to know Nigerian history in detail, they are the real stupid ones here. Algerians are nowadays uprising on the streets demonstrating against their government, looks on TV like millions in number, of angry educated adults trooped out, who forced Algerian president out of power just weeks ago! Algerians are now calling for a change of military doctrine, that is what I read days ago that made me say Nigeria should not sleep while this strange Algeria grows very very powerful just 4 hours away from our border 550km away! Here is the call for new Algerian military doctrine, what if a new government adopts the change below in 5 years time? "Algeria’s defense doctrine is outdated — better suited to a Cold War-era security environment than to meeting the security challenges the country faces in the early 21st century, it is imperative that Algeria proceed to update its defense doctrine." https://www.mei.edu/publications/updating-algerias-military-doctrine The fools liking your comment do not read wide, not many people are smart in Nigeria, most have more mouth than brain, many are too lazy to read wide. Also the web link says Algeria has broken the rule of no military force abroad many times, and its a NATO international seminar of experts paper I quoted above, I believe them more than you. "Second problem is continuation of formal adherence to principle of non-intervention when, in practice, it has been breached. There are numerous instances of Algerian military intervention, as when Houari Boumedienne sent troops to Egypt to defend Nasser regime in 1967 and again in 1973. Algerian troops helped to protect West Saharans who fled advancing Moroccan troops in Western Sahara in 1975-1976. Algerian troops have intervened in Tunisia since 2011, with the full agreement of Tunisian political and military leaders, in an effort to combat radical Islamic groups. Algerian troops also intervened in Mali and Libya to protect Algeria’s borders. Algerian forces directly intervened in Libya, awash with weapons since the fall of the Gaddafi regime, following a terrorist attack on the gas field of Tigentourine at In Amenas." Common sense is not common, especially in this part of the world, just saying our country should be proactive, you will see 20 people shouting no need, that problems will never reach our side! You be God to predict the years coming ahead? Only a fool assumes the future will always bring peace. 10 Likes 3 Shares

ESTABLISHMENT OF 271 NAF DETACHMENT BIRNIN GWARI YIELDS DIVIDENDS AS AIR, GROUND OPERATION NEUTRALIZES 12 ARMED BANDITS, FACILITATES THE RELEASE OF 15 KIDNAP VICTIMS The establishment of the 271 Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Detachment in Birnin Gwari is yielding steady dividends as air strikes conducted by the Air Task Force (ATF) of Operation DIRAN MIKIYA on 10 May 2019, in liaison with troops of the Detachment, have resulted in the neutralization of 12 armed bandits as well as the release of 15 kidnap victims. The air strikes, which were conducted on the heels of intelligence reports indicating that the armed bandits were camped within the Kamuku Forest area, straddling both Birnin Gwari Local Government Area (LGA) of Kaduna State and Sabuwa LGA of Katsina State, caused the bandits to flee the location in disarray thereby enabling the kidnap victims to escape, with some finding their way to Nacibi, and others to Gobirawa and Dogon Muazu in Birnin Gwari LGA. The NAF, working in consonance with surface forces and other security agencies, will sustain its operations to flush the bandits out of the Northwest of the Country.

Xbee007: Stop lying mister, both title heading and page 1 first comment says boldy this is a discussion thread, no where does it say just a STRICTLY PHOTO only with little natural analysis. Quote of first comment page 1 by Bidexiii "Battle field discussion (picture/video's) of african military; these is a thread where by we discuss military histories and the harsh realty of war are being shared be it in pictures and video !" You don't have authority to make the rules on Nairaland to suit your personal wish, you are not a senator lawmaker here. What of all the discussions without photo that you yourself has done here in past pages I have checked, your STRICTLY PHOTO law does not apply to you? You are a king ruling over everybody else here? You don't like a topic, ignore it, the habit of ruling over others like Abacha era censorship will not be tolerated by those who value Nigeria's freedom of speech in our democracy that many Nigerians died for on the streets of Lagos killed by guns of past military dictatorship in government. All Nigerians are free now, the price was paid with blood sacrifice of public demonstrators. Don't push Nigeria back to the dark days of media censorship. 4 Likes |

SupremeCourt:Arm chair General, thank God your not a military officer if not we would have being in a serious problem. That was how Adekunke aka Black scorpion after leading the 3MCDo to numerous victory, travelled to Lagos and was holding press briefing on how he was gonna takeover Owerri ABA Umuahia before Christmas. Only for him to be demystified by Joe Achuzie and Lambert. 21,000 men lost their lives because of one wrong move by a fantastic theatre commander. That was how his role in 3mcdo ended. So you used a Google map to get the accurate distance from the nearest point btw Algeria and Nigeria, weldone. I don't want to going to the arguments of Algerian Su's and ballistic missiles you've been googling since. Moreover neighboring countries in Nigeria will fold their hands while Algerians role in their tanks. Ibadan to Lagos sef is roughly 2-3hrs. You're a genius. 4 Likes 1 Share |

You don't have the courage and sincerity to quote that because I embarrassed you, scientifically proving your ignorance after all your King Kong chest beating braggadocio All of you here that cannot read wide, but rather use mouth more than brain, this is the type of open disgrace you will be forced to swallow for attacking those who do proper homework before posting comment. I ignore your ranting comment posted in defeat, but take this uppercut as a gift from me ; Neighboring countries did not fold arms and look when Boko Haram imported many hundreds toyota mounted anti-aircrafts into Nigeria by driving down here from thousands of kilometers far away Libya, so Chad Niger Cameroon stopped them all for Nigeria 2013-2014, they even stopped Shekau kidnap convoy from removing our 300 Chibok girls out of Nigeria to Cameroon Chad forests.
