Brazil - DM to Nigeria

[Moe]

From his encrypted iphone 6+, President Victor Romero would send a DM to his friend Jonathon Goodluck in Nigeria.

Dr. Goodluck. I am sorry to hear of the tragic terrorist attacks in your country. I am texting you to let you know Brazil will help in anyway it can.
We have Destroyers that have cruise missile that have ranges of up to 1500km, and could be strike at Boko Haram targets within the next 24 hours.

Employing 2 LST's which can carry up to 40 125 AAV-P7/A1's, and K2 Black Panther tanks or Astors II MLRS, which have a range of 16km, in addition to troops and 3 Trimirans, which hold up to 80 vehicles like APC's and VBMT-LR's (Brazilian Humvee) and can carry 800 Marines a piece.

We can even employ our Block 52+ F-16's and have the refuel using our Embraer KC-390 refueling planes to get a squadron to be employed at a air base of your choosing.

Brazil also has subs, with SVLM capabilities.

I wish my condolences once again. But as a victim of attacks in Europe, I would also like tohelp you strike back.

Let me know what you need.

V.R.

President Goodluck Jonathan would receive the message on his private cell phone and smile before responding.

While I share your anger and commitment to bringing these monsters to justice, and I greatly appreciate your show of support, I would very much express that I do not wish for missiles to be fired upon my country regardless of the targets, however as a sign of solidarity between our two peoples, I would very much welcome a small detachment of marines who could assist our own special forces locally in ridding out the Northern Jungles of the last of Boko Haram.

I would think it would not require you to send a tank force, as our own local forces are quite powerful, however I would be most interested in hearing of the troop detachment size you would be interested in sending.

Again, All of Nigeria appreciates your words of friendship, and we will strike back.

-Goodluck Jonathan

We have five Trimirans, quick let me send you a picture.

Each can carry 800 Marines each as well as up to 250 VBML-TR's that can transport troops, or haul mortars, store food, water and medical supplies or act as hospital ships once deployed.

We would be happy to send any battalion type you wish. We have several battalions of Marines that have been MOUT trained and will be able to assist and handle themselves well in an urban environment.

We also have five battalions (2500) trained mountain/jungle fighters that could be used in an operation.

However you need us, the Brazilian military is on call for you.

Juts ket me know what you need. Terrorism, must be stopped. Whether it be political or domestic targets. It cannot go on.

We would welcome 800 Marines, and could receive them at the Lagos Naval Base. They would be then meet up with units of our special forces to root out the remaining militants committed to Boko Haram.

We are grateful for your support and are certain that together we will root out and defeat terrorism, as we agree that it is a threat that must be extinguished. Our high command will have more specifics on the operations and the final objective once they get here, please send them with whatever vehicles you think they will need to carry out their mission they will have local air support of course from the sturdy Nigerian Air Force, the strongest on the continent.

I will send word to immediately deploy Marines from the 2nd Infantry Battalion, 1st marine Brigade based in Rio. They are MOUT trained and should do well against the Boko Haram. Using Trimirans which can can max out at 33knots. We will arrive at Lagos Naval Base in 6 days. My Marines will be ready to fight.

We will be prepared to greet them and brief them when they arrive. We look forward to working with your nation to stamp out the threat of terrorism in Africa. We are certain that your personnel will prove most valuable to these efforts and this cooperation stands as a testament to the strong trans atlantic ties that bind our two nations and our two governments.
