The forces consist of three service branches: the Nigerian Army, Nigerian Navy, and Nigerian Air Force. The President of Nigeria functions as the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, exercising his constitutional authority through the Ministry of Defence, which is responsible for the management of the military and its personnel. The operational head of the AFN is the Chief of Defence Staff, who is subordinate to the Nigerian Defence Minister. With a force of more than 230,000 active personnel, the Nigerian military is one of the largest uniformed combat services in Africa. According to Global Firepower, the Nigerian Armed Forces are the most powerful military in sub-Saharan Africa, third-most powerful military in Africa, and ranked 31st on its list, internationally. The Nigerian Armed Forces were established in 1960 as the successor to the combat units of the Royal West African Frontier Force stationed in the country, which had previously served as the British Empire's multi-battalion field force, during Nigeria's protectorate period. Since its creation, the Nigerian military has fought in a civil war – the conflict with Biafra in 1967–70 – and sent peacekeeping forces abroad, both with the United Nations and as the backbone of the Economic Community of West African States Cease-fire Monitoring Group (ECOMOG) in Liberia and Sierra Leone. It has also seized power twice at home (1966 & 1983). Nigeria's armed forces would continue to remain an active element in combat operations throughout the African continent over the proceeding decades, with notable engagements including its 2017 involvement as part of the ECOWAS military intervention in the Gambia. _______________________________ ► More Military videos on:    / quasarentertainment   _______________________________ 00:00 - Intro 00:30 NIGERIAN ARMED FORCES 00:38 NIGERIAN ARMY 00:38 - Main battle tanks 01:18 - Tank destroyer 01:34 - Reconnaissance vehicles 02:30 - Infantry fighting vehicles 02:55 - Armoured personnel carriers 03:58 - MRAPs 05:10 - Light armored vehicles 06:14 - Engineering vehicles 06:46 - Trucks 07:10 - Light utility vehicle 08:22 - Self-propelled artillery 08:46 - Multiple rocket launcher 09:18 - Mortars 09:34 - Anti-tank guns 09:50 - Howitzers 10:46 - Anti-tank weapons 11:34 - Air defence 12:38 - Radars 13:10 - Helicopter 13:26 - UAVs 13:58 NIGERIAN AIR FORCE 14:06 - Combat aircraft 14:46 - Maritime patrol 15:02 - Reconnaissance aircraft 15:42 - Transport aircraft 16:46 - Helicopter 17:50 - Trainer aircraft 18:38 - UAVs 19:42 NIGERIAN NAVY 19:50 - Frigates 20:14 - Offshore patrol vessels 20:38 - Fast attack craft 21:02 - Patrol vessels 22:22 - Inshore patrol craft 23:34 - Unmanned surface vehicle 23:50 - Auxiliary vessels 25:10 - Helicopter 25:42 - UAVs 26:30 FUTURE EQUIPMENT #Nigerianarmy #Nigeriannavy #Nigerianarmedforces #Nigerianairforce #full #review #equipment #Nigeria #army #forces
