The Ethiopian military has grown over the past 5 years from 140,000 active personnel to 500 000 today with another 140 000 in reserve.
They now also have many drone systems such as TB2, Akinci, Wing Loong, Mohajer-6 and Orion-E.
They’ve also built their own SkyWin factory last year for FPV drones.
@yaredow Don’t do it, I know the art we set out to learn and paint is long gone now. It’s been reduced to work for any layman can do with little focus, and it is sad. Do something else for money, and code for hobby and possibly your own business.
@bealprazim Based on your posts defending Ethiopian unity, Menelik's legacy against slavery claims, national development projects like GERD, and pushback on separatist or external narratives, you remind me of Emperor Menelik II.
Very trendy in Ethiopia to be "patriotic" these so-called Patriots never choose local products over international ones even if the quality is equal to the international brand some are going to argue that that's a status symbol maybe it is but if you're not supporting local projects then you're not a patriot go watch this video and boost these local Heroes

Great job @chapimenge3 very proud of you
@Mansamusa_Afric@ThomasVLinge Unfortunately there are plenty more where his kind came from. Destabilized nations is a source of income for them, somewhat like arms dealers but poorer.
@Zantana_G Repeating my statement but as a question, nice strategy of deflection there. What else the guerillas had zero casualties of war, shit even saimt George showed up. There are countless books and battles where derg humbled both fronts.
@sputnik_africa Why are there so many Eritreans on here complaining about Abiy’s vocabulary of choice? Not Ethiopians, Not Russians, but fucking Trollians mtsm sorry you’re not at the table neighbors at least you got tsinido
@tigraytruths And for all the atrocities that were committed, I don’t have the evidence or the heartlessness to deny any of them. I simply didn’t want to embolden this military garrison type of Ashenda celebration, after all I am wholly against regional warlord ist and another round of war.
@tigraytruths Sorry, I don’t refer to it as Tigray genocide rather Tigray War, you are right Tigray Genocide is a forced term. Don’t get me wrong I sympathized dearly with the suffering of Tegarus, but it doesn’t blind me from the political and military gamble your side of the spectrum played
@tigraytruths You forgot to add forced conscription, forced justice evasion, forced removal of regional government, forced signing of cessation of hostilities, forced hatred towards Ethiopia, forced friendship with your top haters, forced mineral extraction with mercury, forced militarization.
@AbeardedGOAT Imagine the dictatorship we will be living under if God forbid, those guys get the chance to rule. Mob justice is their strategy, what a sad world they live in.
