Odunayaw:Is LST not the same thing as LPD? |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 12:11pm On Dec 10, 2019 |
kabe1:What have you purchased? because you have yet to purchase any frigates, or Subs or LPDs..... the LST is nice ill admit but after that i don't dream about anything the Nigerian Navy has. |

@Kabe1 this is what i meant..... https://www.defenceweb.co.za/sea/sea-sea/nigerian-navy-wants-13-billion-acquisition-programme/ "Ibas said the new equipment would help the navy fully secure the country’s territorial waters against piracy, armed robbery at sea, crude oil theft and illegal bunkering, poaching, smuggling, vandalism, kidnapping, proliferation of small arms, illegal waste dumping and oil pollution. However, he said the navy was concerned about the ‘substantially progressive decrease’ in government budgetary allocations for its capital and overhead expenditures since 2012." |

jln115:Hopefully they reconsider the LPD option and share the money over getting 1 more Frigate and LST. One reason Aradu is where it is today is because it wasn't bought in pairs according to NN purchase policy in those days |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Odunayaw(m): 12:47pm On Dec 10, 2019 |
jln115:Still doesn't seem like a rational reason to fling $250m on a ship I reckon can only have 10-13yrs more. Forget the armament,it goes to waste after those years |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by kabe1: 12:52pm On Dec 10, 2019 |
Odunayaw: What is the difference. Don't they do the same thing? |

kabe1:You'd have to read up on it yourself to get extensive understanding. But here goes(based on operations), LPDs have a well deck for which when they "dock" offshore, they allow water to flood this well deck so man and machines can be transported out by landing crafts in it. The LPD doesn't beach, its like a stable headquarters offshore LSTs are smaller (in Tonnage) and carry men and equipment directly to beach 3 Likes |

I miss the days when I'd not be able to read through one page here without seeing monikers like Frumentius, Patches, MikeCzar etc A lot of noise then but good times nonetheless |

jln115:I didn't say the 1.3billion would cover 3 subs |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 1:33pm On Dec 10, 2019 |
Toju200:Ok. So why would you say 3 subs when infact Nigeria is only planning to by 1 sub? |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 1:33pm On Dec 10, 2019 |
Odunayaw:true Think I'm the only SAn left on this thread |

jln115:it's according to their strategic acquisition plan.it comes in three phases and now they are in third phase...And it states in the third phase 3 conventional subs.They can't acquire it once..U should know that |

Odunayaw: I dont think Nigeria ever paid more than $300,000 for a foreign made MRAP to be honest and many we got for free. However at N70m Naira apiece, the Nigerian Army should simply standardize on this platform and just match with different turrets (local and foreign) for each type of mission. We need to stop importing fully built MRAPs forthwith. We need the jobs, we need the money saved going to things like Army Aviation 2 Likes |

Toju200: Why not buy three armed UUVs for the LSTs next year and just one submarine in 2023/25 |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Odunayaw(m): 2:44pm On Dec 10, 2019 |
Jimi24:less than 25unit from the US are the many? Either ways, I agree with your submission. Its easier to tweak as we wish. Jobs, jobs and jobs (Although I think the steel is still imported). And the best of them all, Watchful eyes can now be on our procurements. Next step for DICON is to revamp Ammo production. |

If our surface department (Navy) is not up to standard it'd be foolishness to start doing anything for the subsurface |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Toju200(m): 3:14pm On Dec 10, 2019 |
Odunayaw:I think the ammo production is Going on fully well they supplied the Army 5million rounds last year.. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Odunayaw(m): 3:16pm On Dec 10, 2019 |
Toju200:Interesting, but I'm not talking of 7.62 rounds, I'm talking of ammo up to the Howitzer rounds |
