Uncle Henry is back.....I have some questions pls do u have any pics of the Armed bell 412 either with rocket pods or gun pods...not the screen grab.... And also any news about the N-ICON drone DEMFAS is producing...

Nigerian Air Force modified Gun Truck armed with a Geisha 23mm Cannon and GPMGs.

Henry240:
Nigerian Air Force DSSC passing out parade.

pls do u have a better picture of the R& products displayed on dat day

Henry240:
Nigerian Air Force modified Gun Truck armed with a Geisha 23mm Cannon and GPMGs.

It appears the gun can be remotely controlled.

Reminds me of Breaking Bad.

Nigerian Air Force Hexocopter armed with a locally built .33mm Rocket.

We saw these small miniature rockets tested out during the Air Force Capability Demonstration in 2018.

Locally built Hexocopter in flight with a dud missile.

Nigerian built Rocket launch pods for our Bell 412 Helicopters.

This is a 6 barrel Rocket Launch Pods. The sort of ammo it's going to fire is not currently known, but judging from the size my guess would be the 68mm.

Same rocket fired from the Alpha Jets and L-39.

Xbee007:

It appears the gun can be remotely controlled.

Reminds me of Breaking Bad.

We'll have to wait and see the full vehicle.

The photo released doesn't show much apart from the GPMGs.

We might have to wait for another Regiment passing out parade, October 1st military parade or Next year's NAF Research and Development week.

Toju200:

Look at the photos I've shared.

Henry240:

Look at the photos I've shared.

yeah I have seen those pics it was shared on the other thread.... but I didn't get how the pods really look like and also the geisha gun truck.....

"High quality of Nigerian Engineering"......maybe in a parallel universe.

Anyone who has ever worked with welding and sheet metal can tell you what's immediately wrong in that pic.
Stop being so impressed with nonsense. This is a rushed piece of junk.

The ARA on the other hand looks good.

Some random lunatic decides to launch a tirade against the Nigerian army Tactical Patrol Vehicle, as he puts it, it's a random piece of junk.

Yet, the coward couldn't stay on to defend his comment. He immediately deletes his profile after his comment.

Fools like @Stephandeswardt decide to shower him with support, at least he wasn't cowardly to delete his profile. Some other fools decided to hide behind likes to show support for the coward.


What is the Nigerian Army Tactical Patrol Vehicle. This vehicle is primarily a High Mobility Vehicle designed for Patrols. A number of countries around the world use High Mobility Vehicles, the most popular been the Humvee.

They are designed to overcome obstacles, rough terrains and are in many cases referred to as All Terrain Vehicles.

The Lunatic claimed our TPV is a badly done weld job. A junk. He circled a number of areas before fleeing like a buffoon.

So here are some examples from around the world with similar designs.

The Tactical Patrol Vehicle follows a similar design principle.

See the vehicle in motion in this video.

The TPV might not be aesthetically pleasing at this point but if it does what it is designed to do, why bother about beauty?

Tactical Patrol Vehicle Nigerian Army

High Quality Nigerian Engineering

Like the Nigerian army Tactical Patrol Vehicle which we hope would be commercially successful like IPV-1, see similar vehicles to IPV-1.

IPV-1 (Nigeria)

Similar examples from around the world.

Oga!! What is it now?....with all due respect, I do not accept the fact of people insulting me, can you call me a fool, if I were in front of you, and you wont get a resounding slap, with a high pitched frequency.....
Look at where the shocks of that vehicles meets the body, does that point look logical to you, because that point doesn't look reinforced to me, even my civilian Honda accord wasnt built, with just a little piece of metal, attached to the fenders of the body ,, holding it, where it can easily get sheared off.....I see the point you making with your pictures, now see any point, how weak and out of place, the shock absorbers meet the body of the Nigerian car, and be rest assured, when next you insult me, I will track you down....it shouldn't be too hard, I just need to read all you have been posting, to get sufficient details to find you......and you will serve the job with malice.....thank you

alright the beef is enough...just data what Uncle Henry was saying was dat y'all are underestimating the IPV calling it a mere weilded work.. unfortunately it's world class if these indigenous military vehicles are showcased at foreign defense expo....it will be the spot light I can assure u

Go and lie down Henry, it seems you got drunk at some point.
You do not have to be an engineer to see that it is shoddy construction, you also don't have to insult people for pointing out the obvious. No one bolts a shock to the frame that way, it will snap with any rigorous driving. For a vehicle meant to travers rough terrain quickly, that is not a good design in anyway shape or form. As is all things it will improve, but do not pretend it's where it should be. Also, don't act so defensive when people point these things out.

Have you seen the video?

Have you seen close up images to inspect it?

Inspect that point again.

It is held by a reinforced plate.

Like I said previously, the insult is out of place.

a small correction.. the Hexacopter will be armed with the 50kg drop bomb (quite unique), but the rockets in the photographs are for the rail-mounted surface to surface rocket system.

I thought the 30.1mm rockets was ground to air...pls brief me on how it works

Pls why is Tdayof not active I would like to know more of the NICON drone

Kind Sir.

I decided to activate an account again to reply to you. So please put your emotions away and read the facts I'm about to give you.

Firstly I never commented on the actual design. Any country is free to design whatever they want. You can design a tactical tri-cycle if you
want to, that's your business. Hence the bulk of your reply and pics you posted are useless.

The areas highlighted in red circles are such bad weld jobs that the actual metal has been damaged. The artisan welded over the same spot
numerous times. Anyone who has worked with welding can tell you that. Do you agree or disagree with this point?Yes or No? Please don't
go and quickly google pictures of welding to try become and expert in 5 minutes, it won't work.

Now....in any half decent manufacturing company, the supervisor would not allow that joint to pass. It is a fail. That connection needs to be
cut out and re-welded. I won't even talk about the design of the suspension. Who knows what other rush jobs are hidden in this vehicle.
Hence it does not qualify as high quality Nigerian engineering. Or maybe it does? If you insist.

For the past 3 years i have been following military threads on this forum, i observe that 98 percent of Post bashing Nigeria or it achievement usually has 3 likes.

Eleyi gidigan oo !


functionality triumphed aesthetics oooo

And I thought I would never live long enough to see this here.

Anyways don't mind me I am kind of gone , I realised my posts here r reappearing on twitter and other forums so best to quit

lionel4power:

IMO for R & D purposes it's ok . Otherwise utility in weaponized role for unguided munitions is rather low.

But if I were in charge I would rather modify the hexacopter into a tethered UAV for permanent base / FOB surveillance. It seems to be the need of the hour but unfortunately being overlooked.

Take a SUV mount a DG set on it connect it to the hexacopter UAV via cables , SUV rolls into any base or FOB, operator sends it up where it remains airborne powered by the DG set , keep toping up the DG set with fuel and the UAV remains afloat permanently , giving much needed early warning capabilities and C2 against / during BH hit and run attack against bases 24x7

Anyways my personal opinion need not be correct.

@Henry don't waste your time replying people like these..
They just want to talk - Rome was not built in a day, I don't see much difference with the NA ATV and western/European prototypes. Talking from experience, you don't need aesthetics when it comes to functionality of military hardwares to fight.
Dude these ATV have under gone trials and I can badly tell you that the suspension systems can survive the north east terrain.
Your argument are not substantial talk less of being constructive.
