Just wondering
Does Niger have an operational airforce - they supposedly have two Su-25 as their whole "fighter" (more CAS) fleet?
Would they take the risk of downing a civilian airliner even if they could ?
Obviously wouldn't want to be the one to test it but frankly sounds more like grandstanding than anything else 🙄
