Why Nigeria shouldn't buy US fighter jet. by Biodun556(m): 4:21pm On Jun 14, 2021

US president Joe Biden recently told United Arab Emirates to dropped Huawei 5G technology if it want F 35 fighter jets to be delivered. This came after United Arab Emirates established relationship with Israel, a condition given by Trump administration to deliver the F35.

US also pressured Turkey to decommission it's Russian S400 before it deliver 100 F35 Turkey ordered for despite Turkey participation in the building of the F 35.

US do not have alternative to 5G technology and S 400 but tries to hold back other's development.


If Nigeria continues to rely on US military equipment, war on terrorists and insurgents will suffer set back just as we witness under Jonathan government.

They use sale of their military equipment to give condition upon condition which causes delay in supply for decades. A country under war like Nigeria should rely on reliable country like China, Russia and others who will not attach selfish national interest to security of lives and properties.

Is US THAAD not as good as S400? I know US patriots are not that good, reason why Israelis abandoned it to develop their own.

Perhaps turkey can buy David sling if Israelis finally decided to sell.

The S400 from what experts say is more versatile, dynamic and customizable for both defensive and offensive purposes. And aso easily assembled

US has refused to return money back to Turkey. They did not supply f35 and did return the 100 billion dollar

The patriots embarrassed Saudi Arabia, huti rebels were able to bomb their oil installations while patriots fire in opposite direction and hit Jedda, the Saudi Capital.

It can also fire more than one missile at once.

Weapons you are paying for the idiots will try to use it as a leverage on you. The good thing is that PMB is patronising a wide array of people including Pakistan and China.

I don't think it is as good as the S400. USA makes quality weapons, but the quality in most cases isn't worth the price they charge for them. This is one of the reasons their defense budget is so huge.

They make quality fighter jets but their air defense system is so poor that they have even show interest in buying Israeli air defense system.
