Weapons that turned the tide in Nigeria's war against terror. 
What makes the MI-35M "Hind" devastating are its panoply of weapons. The most destructive of which are the RBK-250 bombs, each containing 60 AO-1SCh submunitions
..and the RBK-500 bomb loaded with fragmentation submunitions designed to saturate advancing enemy mechanized forces with armor killing munitions. Its also loaded with sensor fuzed submunitions designed to effectively defeat tanks.
Hundreds are kept in strategic reserve for this purpose and maintained regularly.
JF-17 Thunder.
For the first time since the Jaguars were retired in the 80s, the NAF has 4th Gen fighters in its inventory. But unlike the Jaguars, the JF-17 comes with a plethora of smart munitions. Making the JF -17 the deadliest combat aircaft ever procured by the NAF.

Falcon Eye Maritime Surveillance System. Housed in eight C3I underground Command and Control Centers, with UAV's, surveillance aircraft, ground based sensors and one optical satellite slaved to it. It is the most sophsiticated maritime surveillance system in Africa.
With other terrestrial surveillance systems plugged into the system, little wonder the International Maritime Bureau in a recent accessment said the Nigerian maritime domain is now among the safest in the world.
..and of course, A-29 Super Tucanos.
