F-15SE (Silent Eagle). Sweeet.
The Boeing F-15SE Silent Eagle is a proposed upgrade of the F-15E by Boeing using stealth features, such as internal weapons carriage and radar-absorbent material.

Would cost around $100 million each. It is aimed at international customers like Israel, Saudi Arabia, Singapore Japan and South Korea, all F-15E users.
Maybe I am just dreaming XD
I think Bangladeshi Type 59 are improved to Al Zarar level.... Correct me if i am wrong.
With a $100 million budget, the country can build a hundred small factories, 10 medium factories or one large factory. When the country invests $100 in industries, it contributes $35 million to the GDP every year for the next 30 years.
Now, multiply 1 unit by a sqadron of planes each costing $100 million. The country's lost production is $280 million every year. So, what is the point to buy all those toys which we cannot probably use for many years. Without SAM missiles to protect these, an enemy plane will rise above, and shoot and kill these planes before they can fly above.
I think, the present policy of biting only what the country can swallow is much better. The country is still an LDC country without much of an economic muscle. We need to put more muscles before we can afford to buy hundred million dollar toys.
Improving air-defense seems like a better alternative to procuring new and expensive aircraft. No such thing as a tank known as T-2000. Maybe he was refering to the MBT-2000 (AKA Al-Khalid) (?). It is a Chinese/Pakistani tank and it is a very good tank.
The Type-59 tanks we have now are beyond ancient.
Apart from the J-10 another replacement is there - Good relations with India.
If India-BD have good relations no need for spending on these fighters.

BD does not have very good relation with myanmar too. They need something to show to myanmar.
[/COLOR]WE already bought SAM from Russia. The country is brought under constant Radar Suveillence system and every inch of land is now covered and the only country in south asia could do that. I saw in BTV few months ago.
But, I thought there is also Turkish source of getting SAMs. Are you sure that it is only Russian source?

eastwatch we are probably getting it from both since our foreign suppliers are turkey and russia, also I would have checked on bdmilitary forum but I think I have been banned.Only last week the Myamar Airforce Cheif came for a 5-day visit to Bangladesh. Burma's newly elected President will be coming to BD for his 1st ever visit to a foreign country. Relationship with that country is excellent, and will improve with these visists.
