by AnaedoOnlineAugust 27, 2020

The team of Defence Industries Corporation of Nigeria(DICON) paid a courtesy visit to the CEO of Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing(IVM), Chief Innocent Chukwuma at his Nnewi factory in Anambra State on 26th August 2020 as the duo is set to partner in the production of MRAP EZUGWU.


DICON in collaboration with the Command Engineering Depot(CED) produced a Mine Resistant Armoured Protected Vehicle named EZUGWU MRAP which has been deployed to the North-East by the Nigerian Army to be used for executing insurgency operations.
The team intends to further partner with IVM in order to produce more military-grade vehicles, patrol vehicles, and soft
Skin vehicles for the Armed forces and other security agencies.
The DICON Team which comprises of Maj.Gen V.O. Ezugwu, DG DICON (Team Lead), Mr. Livingstone Nwaigbudu ( Director P&BD), Engr. Shedrack Agbo (Consultant DICON/CED Imperium Nig.Ltd), and Engr. Terra Addingi (Consultant DICON/CED) took a factory tour of the IVM facility in the company of Chief Chukwuma and other key members.
According to the team lead, Maj.Gen V.O. Ezugwu, who was impressed with the facilities on the ground; said the collaboration with IVM is inline with the FG’s drive to boost local content and encourage indigenous production in the country.
Chief Innocent Chukwuma was also very delighted to receive the team and promised to partner and support DICON in its production in order to assist the FG in its fight against insurgency in the country.
Defense Industries Corporation of Nigeria (DICON) is the state-run defense corporation of Nigeria and operated by the Nigerian Armed Forces. It is responsible for the production of defense equipment and civilian products and was founded in 1964

The new Ezugwu looks much better than the very first hideous contraption without windows. Wondered if they were sane releasing it for the public to see. Lol.

Interesting this alliance between Dicon and Innoson. I wish them well.

If Nigeria wants to be serious, I also now want to see an indigenous engine manufacturer. Cummings 6.7l 300hp vs Chinese 615WD must be a significant sum of the total costs towards building these MRAPS.

Yeap I said so !
And all the variants are heavy, I concluded then we should produce both the heavy types and the 4x4 chassis variant.
But it does not changes the fact that I love the Nzegwu MRAP and the fact that it’s been produced by the NA !

Good new on the Super Tucano...

WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio (AFLCMC) – Construction of new facilities to support an A-29 Super Tucano wing at an air base in Nigeria, has started, after the Air Force Security Assistance and Cooperation Directorate’s Foreign Military Sales Construction Division awarded a $36.1 million contract to the United States Army Corps of Engineers, Europe District.

The facilities will support 12 Nigerian Air Force A-29 aircraft, and include the construction of new airfield hot cargo pad, perimeter and security fencing, munitions assembly and storage, small arms storage, a flight annex wing building for simulator training, airfield lighting, and various airfield apron, parking, hangar, and entry control point improvements.

“With this recent contract award, we are ready to be part of the modernization of Nigerian Air Force facilities and infrastructure,” said Brig. Gen. Brian Bruckbauer, director of the Air Force Security Assistance and Cooperation Directorate. “As a member of the Nigeria A-29 FMS Program, and this being AFSAC’s first major construction project in sub-Saharan Africa, we are thrilled to be able to support the Nigerian people in advancing their defensive capabilities. We look forward to building and strengthening this strategic partnership with the Nigerian people.”
