Daniel Admassu from Ethiopia

Hi,
I hope I am right that this is where you introduce yourself. Thanks GarryB for the reminder. (I posted this in another member's introduction topic. Is there a way to delete that? ....just did)
I am from Ethiopia and a really big enthusiast when it comes to military hardware and spacecraft. Also a bit of a Russophile I guess. So no wonder that I am here then. Hope there are no prejudices against African members in the forum. I have actually been an obsessed follower for some time even before joining. Thanks for letting me in.

hey man! I just joined too. you guys have su-27 fighters in your airforce if I remember. do you know what model are they? anyways its awesome you are here too!

Hi, thanks for the welcome. We have the Basic model Su-27s bought second hand from Russia just before the Ethio-Eritrean war. Had to be flown by Russian pilots initially. They downed four MiG-29s. I am sure the moderators are frowning about this off-topic endeavor right now. So thanks for the greeting.

here u can find topics about Ethiopia Armed Forces and the recent confict in tigray.
