Nawa shaa

Naira land front page, a thread about ezugwu MRAP was posted there and instead people being happy for Nigeria's engineering and technical development they turned the thread to a place of tribal bigotry and sentiments

Tobiloba2407:


truth be told, we should have stayed with proforce for the MRAP....greed caused this contraption to be built by the army. the stuff looks like an unbalanced sec sch project.

SuperSixSeven:
The private sector has developed a state-of-the-art MRAP but our military thinks they can do better. They choked of local vehicle manufactring industries, jobs and knowhow for the ruthless ambitions of some officers. The result is a half cooked armored vehicle poorly engineered and poorly manufactured (just take close look at the welding). No army an this planet would come to the idea of building its own vehicles - but Nigeria became a zoo everything is possible here.

y'all are forgetting one thing.DICON is Nigeria defense industry so too is proforce Nigeria limited.The Army vehicle manufacturing company has been dissolved.The Ezugwu MRAP project is aimed at keeping DICON alive.The Nigeria Army will still procure from Proforce.They are infact developing a Light version of the ARA MRAP,6x6 version too.They are also developing an attack helicopter in collaboration with the Nigeria air Force.We all know the military alone can't depend on one source for it's arsenal.We should be at least happy that we have come this far...From ARA, Ezugwu, tsaigumi,Andonni, karaduwa, innoson G12,PF2,Epenal Gunboats,Almarine Gunboats, And lots more still coming...

And the people building it at Dicon are robots abi you think they are robots abi they are not being employed? And who told you its ok for just one arms company to make your vehicles, how many can proforce produce at a time? Who told you they won't be buying from them? Go and sit down until you have a good point.

Development from any angle is development

SDB3 Third naval vessel under construction..

slimthugchimee2:


this SDB is a piece of junk its rubbish built and cannot stand the sea pressure, and I know this not because I know anything about making naval vessels neither was I there when they were making it nor am I an engineer but because I recently learnt how to google and now I know better than the engineers that make it

Toju200:
u're f..king kidding me right nns karaduwa a piece of junk.seriouly
A vessel that sailed to Ghana to showcase and it became on of the star attraction because of the ingenuity of NN engineers.NNS karaduwa also participates in International Maritime exercise.Its a Midshore patrol vessel.This new one will be fitted with Missiles and appropriate naval Guns..

NAF RECORDS ANOTHER FEAT IN R&, SUCCESSFULLY FABRICATES AUXILIARY POWER UNIT TEST STAND FOR C-130H AIRCRAFT

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has recorded another feat in the area of Research and Development (R & D) as it has successfully fabricated a GTCP85 Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) Test Stand for the C-130H aircraft fleet. The local production of this Ground Support Equipment (GSE), carried out by personnel at 631 Aircraft Maintenance Depot (631 ACMD) Ikeja, is another innovative project that would facilitate the operations of the C-130H fleet, thereby enhancing its availability for logistics missions. The feat is coming barely a month after the successful local production of the hydraulic diaphragm for the L-39ZA aircraft fleet at the 403 Flying Training School, Kano.

Speaking while commissioning the APU at the 631 ACMD today, 2 December 2019, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, stated that the NAF had continued to develop human capacity through robust and result oriented training that has in turn had tremendous impact on its R& efforts to develop indigenous technological solutions to engineering and technical problems. He said, in a bid to ensure the continued development of local capacity, the NAF has entered into partnerships with a host of local and international organizations as well as academic institutions, including some Nigerian Universities. He said the local production of the APU Test Stand was a product of these initiatives and was in line with the commitment to reinforce the culture of self-reliance through R&.
