The end is near for Boko Haram, Bandits, other terrorists as the Nigerian military is set to receive six of the 12 Super Tucanos ordered from the United States in mid-July.
This was disclosed on Tuesday, April 13, by the senior special assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on media and publicity, Garba Shehu.
Shehu said that 14 Nigerian pilots are currently training with the aircraft at the Moody Air Force Base in Georgia.
He also posted a video of what appeared to be test-flight operations on his verified Twitter handle, @GarShehu.
The video was credited to the Sierra Nevada Corporation, a private American aerospace firm.
The presidential aide tweeted:
“Six of the twelve Super Tucanos are on track to arrive in mid-July 2021. With the remaining six shortly after that. There are 14 Nigerian pilots currently training at Moody Air Force Base in Georgia.”
