Kenya Defense Forces (KDF) had kept it's attack helicopters away from the public eye, but one journalist got a photo of the AH-1 super cobra attack helicopters that the KDF procured.

In 2016 KDF got 12 AH-1F from the jordanian air force with speculation rife in the media and public that they were faulty.

This photo taken at Laikipia Air base shows the attack helicopters have been upgraded to AH-1 super cobra standard.
An unnamed source also confirmed that they have seen action in somalia as part of support for ground troops.

This ugly mean machine can wipe out an entire battalion in a matter of minutes under the control of a competent pilot. In fact shabab waanze kujificha. This is amazing Russian technology
 
This is bullshit...our real is enemy is poverty, disease and corrupt leaders. Hizi pesa zitumike kujenga and improving existing schools, hospitals, our ailing agriculture and jailing our despots. There is a saying in Greek " mbaara ti Ūcûrû" or in other words no one benefits from wars or conflict.

Its difficult to progress when you have some religious fanatics throwing shit at you. In the world there is peace and war... war brings peace.
 
Watu wanakufa njaa huko Kenya nyie mnanunua mahelikopta uchwara ambayo hayana kazi yoyote.

Mnahitaji security ndogo tu ya mgambo na askari polisi kwa ajili ya kupambana na vibaka wanaoiba biskuti. Hayo mahelikopta ya kazi gani Kenya?

Vita zina wenyewe! Vita zina wababe wake wanaoweza kuigeuza kenya ikawa majivu ndani ya sekunde mbili.

Sasa wewe mkenya wa Kibera, unang'ang'ana na helicopters za vita wakati hata shule kichwani huna?

Look at the first image of the AH-1 super cobra in KDF livery. KDF tried to hide them but they were spotted by a journalist.

Its very hard to hide Military equipments like planes coz they fly on Exercise bases around airbase so its simple for people around airbase to notice them.

Your points are valid but remember, you can not have any of those without peace ie Peace through strength. We need a strong military to ensure that our nation has peace. Kenya is currently surrounded by enemies and pseudo friends.

The only sure way to eliminate poverty is more capitalism. If we gave all the money used to buy these equipment to every Kenyan, I can assure you 98% of the recipients will be back to poverty in a matter of months.

By opening up more markets and reducing regulations and taxes we can eradicate poverty completely in a matter of one decade even if we will still be struggling with corruption.
