Only their 6 MiG-29 has BVR. The rest of their airforce is practically a flying junk yard.What does Bangladesh even have a Air Force for? Their Air Force could literally be wiped out by a squadron of Su-30MKI or Rafale or F-16 or JF-17... They don't even have BVR...
First it was 2020 before 2010, and all the fanboys were jumping with joy then only to be shoved F-7 again into their throats. Now its revised to 2030? After 2020, it will be 2040??

Are their pilots so stupid they need all these trainers just to learn to fly and fight? So stupid!
Let alone india, even myanmar airforce is stronger than them. They have around 34 MiG-29s with them, Russian MiG-29 Jets 'Attack' China in Myanmar - English pravda.ru of which 20 MiG-29s are the SMT version which they recently bought, lethal stuff. BAF would be shot down like flies.

So pathetic.
No F-7PG/BG has speed mach 2.2. Because of the double delta wing F-7 speed is slower than MiG21. its speed is limited to Mach2. But it is more manuverable than Mig21.Bangladesh doing all according to plan. They are following the steps. Working on the SAM system now. After fulfillment of SAM they will go for multirole fighters. Defensive role is more important for peace not attack. I know we are behind in defense ;( But beside 6 Migs our f7 BGI is also good in its class
F-7 BGI is the most advanced of all Chengdu F-7 created so far
1) F-7 BGI has a speed of Mach 2.2
2) 7 Hard-points to carry Air to Air missiles , Laser guided bomb, GPS Guided Bombs, Drop tanks
3) Full glass cockpit.
4) can carry 3000 kg Bomb including Chinese Laser Guided Bombs.
5) F-7 BGI has KLJ-6F radar Fire control Radar with 86 km+ Range which is near BVR or BVR considering what is the silver
lining between them and can track 6 and engage 2 enemy aircraft simultaneously.
6) F-7 BGI can carry C-704 Antiship Missiles (Therefore maritime also possible)
7) afterburner: F-7 BGI (82 kN) thrust
8) Missiles procurement are currently unknown for F-7 BGI but they can fire the 70-75 km range PL-12,PL-11 and also PL-2,
PL-5, PL-7, PL-8, PL-9, Magic R.550 and AIM-9 .
9) F-7 BGI got J-7G2 Airframe with double delta wing. This improves the lift at high angles of attack and delays or prevents stalling.
10) G-limit: +8 g / -3 g
11) Service ceiling: 17,500 m (57,420 ft) for F-7 BGI
12) 3 Multi functional HUD displays and Hotas.
13) Chinese Helmet Mounted Sights.
14) Reportedly more maneuverable than most of the Mig21s and many of the other contemporary fighters.

it only has 5 hardpoints.
It only has 2 or 3 MFDs. Adding tv into the cockpit does not make it "full glass cockpit"
It has no KJF-6f radar. that radar never got off the drawing board.
Anti-Ship missile? That's bullshit!
Again claiming it can fire BVR missiles is elephantshit!!
And it doesnt have HMS!!
What are you people smoking???? Dammit!!
That I agree. But only a few avionics upgrades and some tvs inside cockpit. Maybe more maintenance friendly. But that's it.BGI is upgraded version than Pak, Myanmar inventory
I agree with you. We should discuss the BAF instead.It's a defense forum not an JF-17 marketing forum,BD member here has already repeated it times and times again,Don't come here to showoff or troll about Jf 17 vs whatever.SO STOP!!!
The fact is that we must tie up joint def with Malaysia and/or Indonesia to be able to maintain an A class air force. Till then we need to look for the best ground-based Air Def eqpt.
Indonesian Military itself is currently in the reforming programme themselves and looking up for United States, United Kingdom, Netherland, Singapore, Australia and Japan to assist us in modernize our process of thinking and organization skill. After all human resources is the first thing to get done before anything else. All in all, the process can happened with the separation of Military from Politics and civilian matter. And i don't think our Air Force is a first rate ones, as we are severely lacking in several fields to be as such Air Force ....
I think, Bangladesh Air Force must looking up for any country Air Forces who can became a patron country to modeled themselves after and made indigenous reform to suit the criteria for your own needs. Friendly yet neutral country and have a strong tradition in Air Forces like South Korea, Singapore or maybe at some degree United States can be sought for such assistance.
..and let me remind you, this is a forum where we discuss actual facts, not fantasies like "BAF F-7's now do have BVR missiles". your airforce is a training airforce. it has no teeth. the only fighter which is decent in your airforce is thr 6 BVR capable MiG-29 single seaters. that's all!! live with this fact.@Riaz Hussain

and whatever BAF works with is none of your business,everyone of us here is fanboyz and trolls!so no point in name calling others air force professionals.And you certainly don't have the right!!so don't do it again.I already reported your posts.
And for your information every single FT-7 in BAF inventory is combat capable,and all of the BAF F-7's now do have BVR missiles.They are upgraded than the F-7's that PAF bought in hundreds;as they have to serve for more than another decade.Check the BAF thread.
Regards.
