In fact, that coup was conducted by AF NCOs against the government, and they killed the AF officers!!! Thanks to the heavy infestation of commie ideology in the ex-MB rebels among the commmon soldiers, many BD officers lost their lives to their own soldiers!!!I do not know, who exactly were killed during a coup attempt in 1977 when the Japanese Red Army hijacked a JAL plane and force-landed it to Dhaka. But, some air force pilots and others tried to stage a coup taking opportunity of the hijack event. It was unsuccessful, though. The then government crushed it and the coup leaders were brought to justice. They were killed by a firing squad.
So, their killing was not a ploy to cripple our air force. No government can forgive such attempts, however apt the pilots might have been.
India trained more than 100K MBs...Does MB means Mukti Bahini?? If so there was only 26000 freedom fighters during 90000 Pak army's surrender. The figure won't be more than 30000 i think. Where did you get this figure?? Can you show any proof?? It's not easy to kill 40000 people in 4 years. Yes there was coup against Zia staged by Air Force officials and JASOD was involved. But the number of were prosecuted were not more than 1000 and most of them were officers and soldiers.
Actually I hope this news is true. BAF will grow to 160 4+/5 gen fighters by 2030 and so around 100 trainers are required.
Most of the fault for the condition of BAF
lies with BNP who stopped the completion of
AL order for 16+16 Mig-29s.
Like you already mentioned BAF only placed a tender for combat jets last year. We shall see orders this year or next and when it comes it would negate MAF superiority in one go. Afterall
bulk of their fleet will be made up of Mig-29 and JF-17. Even Mig-35 can shoot both down with ease.
23 K-8s would cost around 200 million dollars
- you can get 3 SU-30SME for that price. These
trainers are hardly costing BD that much money.
I know what the stupid sushil OTI Bangalis talk about the military. But, pilot training is a necessary component of purchasing new planes. As far as I know, an air force needs three pilots for each plane. So, if the number of jet plane becomes someday 160 units, at least 450 pilots or something like that is required to be trained.
I think, the buying of training planes and building two completely new air bases show that the BAF will induct many new 4.5G multi role combat planes within the goal of 2030. No air force would ever buy $200 million worth training planes unless it is willing to buy new combat planes.
Your logic is correct. I think a BAF pilot goes through 5 stages of actual flight training.... the fifth stage being the jet the are going to specialise in .... F7 or the Migs.
Currently we have 25+ trained pilots for each of these active assets. We need to ensure trainers are available absolutely.... the training programme in BAF is 1.5 to 2 years but currently lasts around 3 years.
The point is BAF procurement actions are illogical. The YAKs which are 4th level trainers should have arrived no more than a year before the primary mission capable assets.
K8s will be level 3 training aircrafts. It’s great we are buying them to replace old models. But let’s be clear we have a fully established training path with necessary assets already in place.
The only piece missing are actual jets. You can not fully train the pilots unless you have the fighters and you can not train all the level 4 trained pilots at the same time for their final jets.
BAF is run by idiots. I take no pleasure in calling them clowns. Politics or otherwise BAF has lost credibility in my mind and their actions give credence to the hypothesis that they lack a coherent strategy. It’s a rudderless ship.... BAF leadership needs to be removed and the whole project needs to be restarted with a clean sheet because it at this stage the disfunctionality is complete.
Give 2 billion dollars to the BAF top notches to buy their choice planes and immediately they will run the airplane purchases in a way that will bring a wide grin to your mouth. BAF pilots and officers have the best and quickest mind. People with only a quick mind are selected and trained for air combat. So, they know very well what they are doing.BAF is run by idiots. I take no pleasure in calling them clowns. Politics or otherwise BAF has lost credibility in my mind and their actions give credence to the hypothesis that they lack a coherent strategy.

Vai, eibar ektu maf Kora zay na? Bangladeshi hoye indian der uskani deyar suzog na dilei ki Noy?where is @UKBengali with tall tale claim "in next 10 years awami league will procure 160 4+/5 gen fighters"??
Is it necessary provoking indian against us?
Would it provoke India if Bangladesh got a real air force?
Would it provoke India if China got the contract for Sonadia port?
can we even afford that many aircraft to procure, let alone maintain them? AFAIK, we were suppose to have 6 squadrons of combat aircraft by 2030.
Indians were jumping up and down like monkeys when BD got the two Ming subs.
What do you think?
Looks like trainers are the max allowed for BD!! And, they're buying all the trainers of the world!!! I'd rather have Niazi Pasha surrender every day than to be under such "absolute capitulation" condition!!!! Many Pak folks think what can be worse than having US drones murdering poor tribals!!! Well, now we have a worse situation out here....
You mean the obsolete trainer subs, rather than the Yuan-class AIP submarines that Pakistan and Thailand are buying?
