Senegal celebrated the 57th anniversary of its independence on Tuesday in its capital Dakar.

That was reported by www.sunugambia.com.

The official ceremony began early in the morning, with Senegalese President Macky Sall and other government officials in attendance.

Around 3,800 military and paramilitary forces, as well as 1,800 civilians participated in the parade.

“It gives immense satisfaction and great pride to be a Senegalese today. We take great pride in seeing our national army parading under the national flag. Everything was beautiful from the beginning to the end,” said a Senegalese citizen named Pape Bocar Wane.

The theme of this 57th edition was “Role of defense forces and security in protecting the environment.”

According to President Sall, natural resources are the vital substance of Senegal’s productive base, without which there can be neither growth nor development. So he has ordered the defense and security forces to make their efforts in protecting the fisheries, forestry and plant resources.

Senegal won its independence from France on April 4, 1960.

On 30 November 2017, Poland’s Military Aviation Works No 1 (WZL-1) has transferred to the Senegalese Air Force the remaining two of three fully overhauled Mi-24 “Hind” helicopters.

Commissioning of the helicopters was preceded by a logistic undertaking on a large scale, consisting in cargo allocation according to weight and balance rules for An-124 heavy transport aircraft owned by Antonov Airlines, which took the Hinds to Dakar.

WZL-1 is one of the leading aviation companies in Europe. The company established its position on local, national and foreign market thanks to untypical activity which generally covers:

• overhaul, maintenance and modernization of the following helicopters:  Mi-8, Mi-14, Mi-17, Mi-24, W-3 Sokół and SH-2G Kaman;
• general overhaul of SO-3/W aviation engines and TW3-117 (III s, M, MT, W) family engines;
• general overhaul of PZL-130 “ORLIK”, MiG-29, TS-11, SU-22, An-2 aggregates and their equipment;
• periodic maintenance of TS-11 “ISKRA”.

The refurbished helicopters sold by a private Polish company to the Senegalese Armed Forces. First overhauled Mi-24 helicopter was delivered to Africa in January this year.

Sénégal: 8 morts et 13 blessés dans le crash d'un hélicoptère militaire
L'hélicoptère s'est écrasé vers Missirah, sur la route de Dakar, en provenance de Casamance.

Un hélicoptère de transport de l'armée sénégalaise, ralliant Ziguinchor à Dakar, s'est écrasé près de Missirah, mercredi 14 mars dans la soirée. Le bilan est lourd : huit morts, treize personnes blessées. Ces dernières ont été transférées à l'hôpital régional de Kaolack.
Un hélicoptère militaire sénégalais avec 20 personnes à bord s'est écrasé mercredi soir dans le sud du Sénégal.

Selon un dernier bilan communiqué par les autorités (ce jeudi matin), huit personnes ont péri dans l'accident, et treize autres sont blessées qui ont été prises en charge par le Groupement national des sapeurs-pompiers et transférées vers l'hôpital régional de Kaolack.

L'hélicoptère, un Mi-17 qui ralliait Ziguinchor à Dakar, s'est écrasé près de Missrah dans la zone des Mangroves (région de Fatick). Il était en mission de service social : l'hélicoptère avait acheminé une dépouille à Ziguinchor, en Casamance, selon l'AFP.

« Dès réception du message de détresse lancé par un aéronef, toutes les équipes techniques des services aéronautiques sénégalais se sont rendues au Centre régional de navigation aérienne de l'ASECNA, pour suivre la situation en relation avec l'état-major de l'armée de l'air », explique le communiqué du secrétariat général du gouvernement.

Une commission d'enquête a été diligentée afin de déterminer les circonstances de l'accident, précise le communiqué.

“Senegal orders armoured vehicles for its gendarmerie
Written by defenceWeb, Wednesday, 14 March 2018
Senegal has ordered two different armoured vehicles from Turkey for its gendarmerie, with deliveries set to commence this month.

Private Turkish company Nurol Makina was awarded the contract for Ejder Yalcin and Ejder Toma vehicles, which are set to be delivered in batches in March and April/May this year, according to Turkish media. Senegalese personnel are currently being trained on the vehicles.

The Ejder Yalcin is a 4x4 vehicle that can be equipped with manned or unmanned turrets housing 7.62 mm and 12.7 mm machineguns or a 25 mm cannon or 40 mm grenade launcher. Various configurations are available, such as explosives disposal, air defence, command and control, internal security, ambulance, combat vehicle, reconnaissance etc. Army Recognition reports that Senegal’s vehicles will be equipped with open turrets.

The 14 ton Ejder Yalcin can carry 11 people or a payload of 4 tons. Top speed is 120 km/h and range 700 km. A V-hull provides landmine protection.

The Ejder Toma is a 4x4 riot control vehicle equipped with a water cannon (with 5 000 litre water tank) that can also dispense tear gas, dye or foam. Equipment includes cameras, sirens, spotlights and a bulldozer blade for clearing barricades. It has a top speed of 110 km/h and range of 750 km.

According to Turkish media, Nurol Makina have previously exported vehicles to Tunisia, with 70 being delivered. Other customers include Uzbekistan and Qatar.

It is not clear how many vehicles have been ordered by Senegal.

According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute’s Arms Transfers database, Senegal has in the last five years received a number of different armoured vehicle types, including two Oncilla (Dozor-B) armoured cars from Poland, 55 Puma M26 armoured vehicles from South Africa, 55 RAM armoured vehicles from Israel and 12 WMA-301 Assaulter armoured fighting vehicles from China.”

The Senegalese Government has announced plans to acquire four AERO Vodochody L-39NG light attack / training aircraft for its Armée de L'Air du Senegal (Senegal Air Force). The contract will also include the training, spare parts, ground support equipment and logistical support.

The L-39NG has recently begun flight testing in the Czech Republic. If the purchase continues, these four L-39NGs are the first jets in Senegal Air Force inventory

http://www.janes.com/article/79034/senegal-orders-l-39ng-attack-jets
“Senegal has ordered four L-39NG jets, Czech manufacturer Aero Vodochody Aerospace announced on 4 April.
The company said in a statement that the new-build aircraft will be capable of carrying out both light attack and training duties. The contract also covers training for pilots and maintenance crew, spares, ground support equipment, and logistics support services.
The Senegalese Air Force does not currently operate any jet aircraft. Two L-39s were seen during the independence day parade on 4 April, but these were from Latvia’s Baltic Bees display team. Senegal’s only ground attack platforms are Mi-24/35 and Mi-17 helicopters. Embraer announced in 2013 that Senegal would order three of its Super Tucano turboprops, but the deal was never finalised.
The L-39NG is an updated version of the successful L-39 jet trainer that uses modern materials and avionics and is fitted with a new engine. It is being promoted as a cost-effective replacement for the large number of L-39s that are still in service.
The company announced in 2015 that it had lined up three customers for the L-39NG: LOM Praha, a state-owned Czech company that trains the Czech and other air forces; the Draken International display team, and the Breitling display team.
The 4 April Aero Vodochody statement quoted its president, Giuseppe Giordo, as saying, “we also have two additional contracts in a very mature state of negotiation,” but provided no further details.”

Senegal orders Thales air surveillance radars

Jeremy Binnie, London - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly

19 April 2018

Senegal has ordered an unspecified number of Ground Master 400 long-range air surveillance radars, Thales announced on 19 April.

The company said the West African country will receive its radars in 2019 and they will be connected to its SkyView command-and-control system set up at Ouakam Air Base in Dakar. “The Senegalese armed forces are to deploy a state-of-the-art airspace surveillance and control capability,” it said.

A second Thales press release announced that the Senegalese Air Force would use its helicopter mission trainer to train its Mi-35 and Mi-17 pilots.
