🇲🇷 🇨🇳 🇦🇪 || New acquisitions in the Mauritanian army include the WMA-301 assault gun, the MCAV-20, Dongfeng Mensghi armored vehicles equipped with TY-90 short-range defense system and many others.
🇧🇫🇹🇷 || Strengthening the capabilities of the Burkina Faso Air Force through the acquisition of at least 2 Bayraktar Akinci. Burkina Faso thus becomes the 3rd country to acquire this HALE drone. This drone will offer a much greater strike force to the Burkinabè army.
The VP11, the spearhead of the Malian army in its reconquest of Kidal.
Here in 2-wheel motorcycle transporter mode.
By the way, hats off to the Malian armed forces for this victory against the rebellion. 🫡
🇧🇫 || Reports indicate the acquisition of Chinese equipment by 🇧🇫. [I cannot say with certainty that it is Burkina Faso].
In my opinion, we notice Dongfeng CS/SS4 [self-propelled mortar version based on the Dongfeng Mengshi EQ2050], 1 WZ551 in Command Post version and WMA301.

Delivery of military equipment to the Malian Armed Forces. VP11-type MRAPs, CS/VP11 Lynx all-terrain vehicles, BRDM-2s, BTR-60/70s, IAG Guardian Xtreme 4×4 (in my opinion) and other vehicles.
🇨🇮 || New acquisitions for the Ivorian army. Looks like assault guns - fire support vehicle, maybe WMA301 or VN-22B. 🤔
[Note that NORINCO has opened a maintenance center in Ivory Coast so the possibility of a Chinese vehicle is not excluded]
The Burkinabese Air Force is showing its aerial capability for the first time via the country's national channel.
We notice 3 TB2 drones, at least 1 AS350, at least one Mil Mi-171, a Mil Mi-26 is also visible and it also seems that Burkina Faso acquired Mil Mi-35M after 🇲🇱 and 🇳🇬

The supremacy of Turkish drones in Africa has been growing every year for the past few years.
In recent years, African countries have begun to acquire MALE drones.
A decade ago the presence of MALE drones could be counted on the fingertips but in 2023 that has completely changed.

Des russes se battent avec l'Ukraine, le corps des volontaires russes est plein de russes et parfois ce sont eux qui font les sabotages en plein territoire russe selon des infos.
🇨🇳🇧🇫 || Probable acquisition by the army of Burkina Faso. MRAP VP11s passing through Ghana. Burkina Faso thus becomes the 3rd operator of this MRAP from NORINCO after Gabon and Mali.
Possible presence of a Type 92 Yitian anti-aircraft defense system (version of the WZ-551 with TY-90 missile launchers) in central Africa (?). For 🇺🇬 or 🇷🇼 ?
Any suggestions or am I wrong?
Czech aircraft manufacturer Aero's L-39 Albatros is a turboprop-powered trainer aircraft with ground-attack capabilities.
If true, it will be a big step for the FAMa 🇲🇱
It goes unmentioned but the Senegalese army is developing in terms of infrastructure and aircraft.
A fierce fight was taking place between the L-39NG of Aero Vodochody and the FA-50 of KIA.
Sources report a possible order for 2 FA-50s from KIA []
Senegalese Air Force fleet recapitalisation and infrastructure development continues.
The Senegalese Air Force is building new runways, hangers and expanding accommodation.
According to sources the Air force is moving forward with plans to acquire the Korean KAI FA-50 advanced
The drone which is more and more popular in Africa. The Bayraktar TB2, a MALE attack drone of Turkish origin. Thanks to this drone, several countries in sub-Saharan Africa will have their first attack drone. During the year 2022, 3 West African countries have acquired it.
Drones were also acquired in a lot that Mauritania acquired. Looks like BZK-005E or TYW-1/BEIHANG UAS, if anyone has a better proposal.
Thanks

Burkina, Niger and Togo have acquired it in West Africa. A good platform for 24/7 reconnaissance, it can also be used for targeted attacks thanks to its guided missiles.
A good point for African countries in the fight against armed terrorist groups.
Which country is it ? Mali ?

C'est pas du tout vrai, le Vietnam est la plus proche. La Chine a envahi le Vietnam, il y'a quelques décennies.
Et en allant beaucoup à l'arrière, l'armée impériale chinoise a mené des expéditions.

Je sens que ce genre d'info plaisent aux français nostalgiques d'une présence militaire au Mali. Ils pensent que sans leur armée, rien ne peut se faire. Vous vous trompez, le Mali ne sera pas comme l'Afghanistan.
TY-90 short-range air defense systems on a type of Dongfeng Mensghi chassis ( CSK-131,???) - I could have said LS ADS, short for Lie-Shou (猎手, meaning Hunter) Air Defense System but it is on the chassis of an EQ-2050 and it has more than 4 TY-90 launchers. If anyone knows him.

On devrais s'éloigner de cette guerre en Ukraine. Restons neutres dedans. On a tous nos problèmes et beaucoup de nos pays ont des séparatistes. Ce que nous voulons pas chez nous, ne les souhaitons pas pour autrui.
🇹🇩🇹🇷 || The presence of Türkiye in Africa is further strengthened over the years. The first delivery of the TAI Akunsgur drone to Africa. There are still orders for Akunsgur in Africa.
Türkiye delivered AKSUNGUR UCAV to Chad.
Chadian Air Force has also recently taken delivery of three HÜRKUŞ light attack and trainer aircraft and two ANKA UCAVs from Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI).
AKSUNGUR UCAV has a payload capacity of more than 750 kg and a maximum

Mais ça reste une victoire algérienne. Ce sont les algériens qui ont donné du fil à retordre à l'armée française pour qu'il aille. Un peu comme les soviétiques avec les moujahidines, les US avec les vietnamiens,...
It also seems that the Mauritanians have acquired an ATGM Carrier (NIMR II chassis perhaps, not sure - if anyone has a good proposal). ATGM is Fagot (?) Any help will be valuable. There is no good visual.

@DiomandeMevaly
Que des fakes de tout les côtés. Quand tu vois ça, tu vois l'armée ivoirienne ? En fait, c'est les FS irlandaise (Army Ranger Wing) et ce que tu dis être un MANPADS "Stinger" n'est rien d'autre qu'un lance-roquettes AT4.
@dixneufsoixante
Je kiffes tellement le BAFS et la FAT.
Le BAFS forment eux-mêmes leur recrues. Avant ils recrutaient directement dans les FCB mais aujourd'hui ils font eux-mêmes leur recrutement. Ils se développent sur tout les plans.
@L_ThinkTank
Une information qui reste encore à vérifier. 150 militaires tués, ça ressemble plus à de l'exagération mais vu que vous cherchez par tout les moyens de discréditer nos pays et une manière de dire que sans 🇫🇷 rien ne peut se régler ici. Le conditionnel était mieux mais hélas...
@DelphineSankara
J'ai l'impression que c'est vous les "panafricanistes" qui veulent qu'on rentre forcément en guerre avec nos voisins. On va rien faire qui puisse être perçu comme un acte hostile.
@SimNasr
Concentration d'ennemis, de quoi faire un strike parfait avec quelques drones d'attaque suivi d'avion de combat.
Comment ce genre de rassemblement peuvent échapper aux satellites ?
@AshleyLelaMAIGA
Comment amorcer le développement s'il y'a l'insécurité ? On aimerait tous que ces fonds soient alloués pour l'agriculture, la santé, l'éducation,... mais c'est impossible vu la situation sécuritaire. Il faut d'abord stabiliser pour construire.
@fabsenbln
TB2 drones have proven to be extremely useful in disorganizing terrorists. A good thing for those destabilized and perhaps those delayed before the arrival of reinforcements.
@Jakepor21
A first in Senegal and French-speaking West Africa. We clearly notice the SIMBAD-RC short-range surface-to-air missiles and the 4 launchers for Marte MK2/N surface-to-surface missiles.
@Jakepor21
According to army officials, the 8 we saw are just samples. The others would have been sent directly to the areas of operations.
I think we should be 2nd air power in the sub-region behind you 🇳🇬.
Dongfeng CS/SS4, self-propelled mortar on Dongfeng Mengshi EQ2050. On the video, it looks a lot like it but if anyone has a much more plausible lead I'm interested.

@ocisse691
Faut vraiment qu'on trouve une solution contre les saisis d'armes de ces terros.
Pourquoi ne pas répertorier tout les engins roulants et les équipés de trackers pour qu'ils soient traçable. Et pendant les grands rassemblements de ces véhicules, on envoie l'aviation/artillerie.
@blackpa82146111
Sinon c'est des images de synthèse que je vois pour les 2 premières images. Ceux du Mali sont certes vieux mais c'est réaliste et ça existe en tout cas. À l'avenir ils peuvent être améliorés et desservir tout le pays. Pas seulement une ville comme vous voulez le faire.
@Gauthier_Pasq
Tu es haineux à ce point ? Pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas la contexte, ça c'est passé dans la polyclinique des armées à Kati où se trouve des blessés de guerre pour soin. Ils ont voulu partager un repas avec ces vaillants soldats qui ont été blessés au cours de leur opération.
@Jakepor21
An air force to watch very closely. Their air force is growing very quickly. I will not be surprised to also see a MALE drone in the Senegalese sky soon.
