HG are fighters, they hardly lose wars. They like border every clan in Somalia and destroyed them all. dont rewrite history bhoyy, you dont know jack shiidh, do you know who jack shiidh is?
From Mudug to Hobyo to CeelBuur Jowhar to Sheebelaha Sare, HG has Somalia in Lock. Unfortunately there other brothren the abgaal have been undermining them for the past 20 years, I hope they work things out

HG are extremly weak militarily. Kuma dhacaan in ee challenge gareyaan anyone but minority clan.
All of their land from Galkacyo to Hobyo used to
be owned by a Reer Bari sultan

Habargidir introduced many technical warfare. they used these kind of mounted missiles to capture kismayo in 1992. can you believe arab spring factions in libya and syria are using the same habar gidir tactics today after 24 years lool. again hawiye didn't create this either the goodshe must be high on something. Actually habargidir is the most powerful clan in Somalia ask the US . they killed 18 US soldiers in less than 6 hours. and the us killed thousands of them do you wanna reward or something
they conquered and ruled sometime almost all Somalia regions except (bari and nugal) from galkacyo to lower jubba valey. and they got kicked out of every place they occupied

The “technical” (light truck mounted with weapons) was born in the Sahara and won its greatest glory there. The history of the technical goes back to the exploits of the Long Range Desert Group in the Second World War. But, the pickup-truck era of warfare really began on March 22, 1987, when 2,000 Chadian soldiers riding in technicals armed with heavy machine guns, AA guns, MILAN anti-tank missiles and recoilless rifles emerged from desert wadis in the depths of the Sahara and overran the massive Libyan air base at Wadi Doum, Chad in a surprise attack that killed thousands of Libyans, destroyed dozens of tanks and aircraft, and shattered Libyan air power. The Chadians would go on to repeat their success several months later with an attack against the Libyan airbase at Maaten al-Sara, in Libya itself. Again, thousands of fighters in armed pickups crossed the desert to hit with speed and surprise. Libya agreed to a cease-fire six days after Maaten al-Sara fell, bringing the “Toyota War” (so named because Chadian forces were mainly composed of Toyota trucks) to an end. The Chadians had defeated a larger and far better armed Libyan force, holding a well-fortified position, and they couldn’t have done it without their trucks.

No history of the pickup-truck era of warfare would be complete without mentioning the Somalis. The term “technical” originated in Somalia: international NGOs would use “technical assistance grants” to hire and equip local guards, and “technical” quickly became the shorthand term for their armed trucks. Somali politics are clan-dominated, and the strength of a Somali clan is measured in how much livestock they own and how many technicals they can field. Muhammad Farah Adid, perhaps the most powerful single warlord to rise and fall since the collapse of Somalia, and victor of the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu against American Rangers, was carried to his grave in the back of one of his Toyota Land Cruiser pickups.

the toyota war was in in 1987. Just few months ago before SNM stormed hargeisa burao and berbera in 1988 with their dhigadheere UD siisaw and sabaax civilian trucks.
so the toyota was 87 isaaq used tikniko in 88 thank you for agreeing with me you copied
Tikniko was well known term during the SNM liberation as transportation.its the USC that revolutionised the use of tikniko when they introduced mounting helicopter rockets on toyota cars.
