Meet Elias Muthomi, a 3-year-old boy from Kenya who has left everyone in awe with his incredible knowledge of military jets.
According to a Facebook post by the Kenya Defense Forces (KDF), Muthomi visited the Moi Air Base in Eastleigh, Nairobi, and met with Major General Francis Ogolla, the Commander of the Air Force.
Despite his young age, Muthomi has a remarkable memory of various military aircraft, including helicopters and 'jet fighters'. He can name and describe different types of planes, such as the MD 500, Sikorsky, and Apache.
During his visit, Muthomi and his parents, Moses Githonga and Monica Wambui, were given the opportunity to take a 15-minute helicopter ride on a Huey helicopter.
Major General Ogolla was impressed by Muthomi's knowledge and invited him to see and touch the aircraft he had learned about.
The young boy's parents were grateful for the opportunity and thanked Major General Ogolla for giving their son a chance to experience something so special.
