COVID-19: NAF UNVEILS LOCALLY-PRODUCED EMERGENCY VENTILATORS, APPEALS FOR PRIVATE SECTOR INVESTMENT FOR MASS PRODUCTION In furtherance of the drive to provide indigenous solutions to tackle the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has unveiled 2 emergency ventilators produced by a Team of Researchers from the Air Force Research and Development Centre (AFRDC) and Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) Kaduna, in partnership with the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) Zaria. The emergency ventilators, tagged ‘NAF E-Vents’, were unveiled today, 27 May 2020, by the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, in Kaduna. Before today’s unveiling ceremony, the prototype E-Vents had been subjected to successful animal testing using both canine and porcine test subjects The objective of the animal testing was to demonstrate the capacity of the Ventilators to support recovery of patients with respiratory diseases, including Acute Lung Injury and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. The tests were also necessary to validate the effectiveness of the ‘Assist Ventilation Mode’, where the ventilator detects a breath from a patient being treated and synchronizes the equipment with the patient's breathing. The NAF E-Vents, which are intended for use when conventional invasive respiratory support resources have been exhausted, were found to deliver very satisfactory performance in air volume control and assist control modes and are now ready for human testing and further certification by relevant agencies. Speaking during the unveiling ceremony, the CAS, who was represented by the NAF Chief of Standards and Evaluation (COSE), Air Vice Marshal (AVM) Remigius Ekeh, stated that the devastating effects of the COVID-19 require that ingenious and proactive steps be taken in order to protect lives and avert any form of national tragedy. He noted that the NAF had continued to vigorously pursue a robust and result-oriented Research and Development (R& ![]() The CAS stated that in the quest to contribute towards self-reliance in the battle against COVID-19, a team, comprising NAF personnel and researchers from partner institutions, was convened to research into the production of the emergency ventilators. He noted that the team commenced work in early April 2020 and within 3 weeks had developed 2 prototypes. According to him, “having seen the progress made, it became necessary for the prototypes to undergo animal testing to ascertain their capacity for use on patients with respiratory illness. Accordingly, the NAF partnered with the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, ABU to test the effectiveness of the Ventilators using a dog and a pig as test subjects. I am glad to note that the tests were successfully completed and the equipment is now ready for human testing and certification by relevant agencies”. He however emphasized that private sector investment would be required for mass production of the ventilators. The CAS also noted that the unveiling ceremony was a further demonstration of his resolve to ensure that NAF continues to make significant contribution to the development of the Country and thus become an Air Force that is the pride of every Nigerian. He assured that the Service would continue to invest in R& ![]() ![]() Earlier in his welcome address, the NAF Director of R& ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The highlight of the event was a presentation/demonstration of the NAF E-Vents by the Leader of the NAF R& ![]() Present at the unveiling ceremony were the representative of the Vice Chancellor ABU, the Dean of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the University, Professor Jacob Kwaga; the Commandant AFIT, AVM Abdulganiyu Olabisi, as well as Commanders of co-located NAF Units in Kaduna and other senior officials from ABU Zaria.

I saw the discussions on why Pantsir got tanked in Libya , some of the guys got some of the reasons correct like hostile HUMIT etc revealing position and state of deployment of Pantsir etc. Additionally one main factor was the Turkish UAVs were flying above the engagement zone of Pantsir. Every SAM has a minimum and maximum engagement zone , anything flying below or above the said engagement zone cannot be targetted . Air defence cannot operate in isolation , it needs to operate in a cooperative mode in a layered configuration. Different types of SAM with different engagement ranges will be needed to enable an effective air defence , especially protect each other while simultaneously engaging aerial threats. It was very foolish of the Saudis to send in Pantsir without sending a medium and long range SAM to protect it . Thus making it a easy target. ( Also no SAM can operate 24x7 . It needs to shut down for brief periods ) Eg the Russians operationally use Pantsir with S300 or S350 or S400. Why ? Because S series SAM protects the Pantsir from medium and longer range threats while the Pantsir protects the S series SAM with short ranged threats. So basically they both concurrently engage all threats at all ranges. No single SAM can ever protect an airspace on its own , it needs to be layered , with multiple types defending each other and in turn defending the entire airspace at different ranges and altitude. Also Turks were photoshopping many of their kills , that too officially ![]() 13 Likes 2 Shares |

nemesis8u: Well, you missed something, why did the Tor-M engage more targets than the Pantsir then? Considering that the Pantsir was designed to replace the Tor system. According to Wikipedia, the Pantsir has a detection range of 32km, how could it not spot the drones, we saw in some of the videos, the Pantsir was active. Can the ANKA-S engage targets from 30,000 feet? I'm sure they need to come close to engage their targets. The Pantsir has performed badly in both battlefields in Syria and Libya. The Tor and Buk systems have outperformed the Pantsir in both Syria and Libya. |
