What's new

Bangladesh Air Force

Bangladesh Air Force is working on building its infrastructure at this stage. The work will be completed before deliveries of new fighter aircraft start in 2020. Shamshernagar, Barisal, Cox's Bazar and Sylhet are earmarked for massive construction works. As we already know a forward base in Cox's Bazar is under construction and . There is probably something happening in Ctg too. The aircraft shelters are of different design, better protected and of course cool looking assets. Probably those will be Hardened Aircraft Shelters (HAS) or Protective Aircraft Shelter (PAS). প্রাথমিকভাবে কক্সবাজার,চট্টগ্রাম, বরিশাল ও সিলেটের শমশেরনগরে চীনের সাহায্য নিয়ে এবং ঢাকা ও চট্টগ্রামে যুক্তরাজ্যের একটি কোম্পানি নির্মান করবে বলে শোনা যাচ্ছে।

There's also talk about AF receiving advanced aerospace simulators for aerospace medicine section. The advanced simulators from EU will help pilots to deal with effects from spatial disorientation, simulation of vestibular system, simulation of adverse weather conditions and so on. Check previous thread for photos.

BAF also issued tender 20X 6 tonnes truck for various roles to be delivered in short notice. The model selected for the procurement is Isuzu FTS33l from Japan . It must carry 3 personnel in the front compartment and 20 troops in the back. We are assuming it would be for transportation of base protection troops, equipment and keeping up with the supplies. The trucks are cross country capable. They will be supplied in CBU form by Uttara Motors.

BD military.com share BAF cocluded their MRCA procurement process

That was about the 8 MRCA with maritime strike capability. Negotiation is done. Deal will be signed after election in 2019.

they submitted report to PMO. which aircraft BAF want to buy any body knows about this report?

This was about a heavy MRCA for basically air superiority role. For 1/2 squadron at least. PM wants a fighter that that won't be obsolete in decades. So BAF proposed three options EFT, Rafale and Su-35. However some top level commanders prefers Su-35 but EFT has big chance.

But if we put BD Military's news aside the only thing 100% confirmed by Law Minister is one squadron of fighters (for cox's bazar if i am not mistaken) and new modern SAM system. While the AF chief suggested the next fighter will be cost-effective. This "one squadron", "cost effective" fighter could be the same or two separate things. BAF have to replace F-7MBs with something sooner. According to BD Military one squadron customized J-10B is coming first which is not impossible even if some guys disagree. Don't see any other good "cost effective" fighter than J-10 in affordable price.

Question:- Is it possible to install different AESA radar in J-10 like the Pakistanis are thinking about their JF-17 with Vixen AESA radar? (I think i asked this before, got tagged in thread for the answer though didn't get anything satisfying.)

Anyway has anyone got the new BAF Anirban 2018 video with good quality? Heard they showed some new informative stuff.

Bengalis use bodna! XD

SRBM project bajra cancelled in favor of sourcing them from friendly country with tot on the table... it was deemed impractical to invest so much in research alone

What is the present state of technology in Bangladesh to develop such a system ?

Import looks like a practical option.

Let them keep dreaming. [emoji3][emoji16]


Hey buddy - it will be China's loss and not BD's.

China gets the chance to earn a few billions from selling a version of J-10C and also gets it's first export order.

BAF can just go and order another fighter(albeit with more cost) if China does not sell but we know they will as it is in their economic and strategic interest for a strong BD.

Exactly why it was cancelled. To develop such a system without substantial prior knowledge/ technological expertise was deemed impractical. They’ll be sourced from outside and researched on from there to improve the potential

Mothball of Bangladesh Air Guard. These stupids are thinking of flying aircraft. This is exactly why Bangladesh does not need an Air Guard. The "Force" word doesn't apply for Bangladesh.

Besides, BBC reports that Bangladeshi Air wings or Air Guard personnel were infected with HIV at UN peacekeeping mission. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/1696063.stm
