I suppose you could say so. It was a pet project by Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi.

This was one of the trained personnel after graduation from the basic course in August 2019.
Is the ship owned by NIMASA or the Nigerian navy?

Not the Navy, although manned by them. Probably NIMASA. I like the paint job. It is just Coastguard markings but in green.

Deep Blue Project funded via special intervention from NIMASA (word on the street $200m)

Includes UAV's, Heli's & Shore to Sea radar stations.

NIMASA has a Maritime Guard Department

The AW-139, is it navy owned helicopter or part of this project?

last year or so Oga Henry240 and Jakeporshenko said Nigeria was getting 3 helicopters from airbus, where are the helicopters?

How come we are seeing AW-139 from Leonardo helicopters instead?

Here is the link for the Airbus helicopters.

It will be armed. This usually happens after delivery apart from major vessels.

A capability we would soon regain in the Nigerian military.

This is the Philippines navy.

Nigeria also considered this ship from Indonesia.
I don't understand what happened afterwards to the Makassar class we were chasing at one time in 2016.

Nonetheless, we're still on track with the LST. But, to have a expeditionary force, the muscles must come in...Frigates.

Most of the news carried out was fake. From the beginning I knew we aren't going to acquire this PT PAL LPD.Or their KCR 60 missile boats, Neither will senegal.Instead Senegal has gone for the Piriou group missile boats.I remember a time they said Nigeria will acquire their LST from India GOA shipyard.Now we see it's Damen. I'm sure that's where our frigates and LPD will come from

I strongly doubt we'd get any LPD as the less costliest buy/option is that of PT PAL. I think we'd get a sister for the LST.

The GOA story wasn't for LST, it was OPV

I thought 2020 was too soon. It could well be she will be launched next year but not completed until 2022 regarding outfitting, sea trials, training etc.

I can't say I'm surprised because Frigates take about 3 years.
