The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) says its newly acquired T-129 ATAK helicopters and King Air 360i aircraft will be inducted on Tuesday.
Edward Gabkwet, spokesperson of the NAF, said in a statement on Monday that the induction will be performed at the NAF Base, Makurdi, Benue state, by President Bola Tinubu, who will be represented by Vice President, Kashim Shettima.
The statement said, “The event no doubt signifies a major boost to Nigeria’s national defense capability under the current dispensation. “Specifically, the new platforms would enhance NAF’s firepower as it jointly confronts the various security challenges in the country, alongside sister services and other security agencies.”
