Nigerian officials in Pakistan to witness the induction of the dual seat JF-17 aircraft into PAF fleet. Pakistan is without a doubt Nigeria's greatest military ally. Abuja sees Islamabad as completely reliable, a technological miracle with friendly open people.
 
so we had Pakistani , Chinese and Nigerian delegations

big event

anyone know when the 52 x Super Mushshaks from Turkey will start to roll of the production line
 
Will the Nigerian pilots fly the JF17s to Nigeria ( or PAF pilotss ) or will they be disassembled for delivery by plane once they have completed their certification flights.

It would be quite an interesting flight for them, if the pilots flew them there.

I very much doubt they will be disassembled

most likely flown, as to who we will have to wait and see

weren't Nigerians being trained on a simulator?

Notice the number of aircraft for Nigeria in the TRT World news report:

Serials spotted for NAF:
NAF-702
NAF-720
NAF-721
NAF-722
(widely assumed NAF-702 & NAF-720 are the same)

According to Nigerian military fanboys at the Nairaland forum, the fourth maybe a dual seater for training purposes.

Wonder what route the Nigerians will take to get their JF-17s home? From Pakistan they could fly to Djibouti; at a Chinese air field, but after that they would have to fly through the air space of other nations.

Not likely a serious problem since they can ask for permission to fly suitable route thru those nation. JF-17 strap with 3 drop tanks can easily accomplish the flight to Nigeria with maybe just one refuel at a friendly airport

Would Djibouti be the preferred friendly refueling airport?
