The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has successfully destroyed a logistics base concealed by fleeing Boko Haram Terrorists (BHTs) in Sambisa. Two fleeing terrorists were tracked
by NAF Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft to the concealed location where they had gone to retrieve some items before fighter aircraft were called-in for strike.
The coordinated
attack was carried out by a formation of two Alpha Jet and an F-7Ni fighter
aircraft while the ISR aircraft remained overhead the target location to guide
the attacking aircraft as well as provide battle damage assessment.
The huge
inferno generated by the attack suggests that the target location was either a
fuel or ammunition dump as can be seen from the declassified footage of the air
strike.
The latest air
strike is another major feat in the renewed air effort by the NAF to neutralise
the fleeing terrorists as well as decimate their capability to regroup for
attack on own surface forces and people within the nearby communities.
