None of their equipments are for internal struggle. Do you think a country needs an MRCA like Su-30 and JF-17 to tackle some small, unorganised insurgents?What about the supposed SY-400 accusations, that doesn't seem to be for any internal struggles?
Most of their equipment, in my perspective, is to tackle any one who would try to push the Rohingyas into the Rakhine state or would try to invade Rakhine state to create a state for the Rohingyas.
The pace at which Myanmar is buying new equipments after they conducted the genocide of Rohingyas indicates that the Burmese generals are buying these weapons to counter the Rohingya crisis
Also let me add one more thing.You guys are missing the point. The country is run by the military. The military are people who have been trained and indoctrinated into living with/loving their weapons.
From what I can tell the Burmese generals love spending money on fancy weapons, for the lack of a better thing to say they get a h#rd on when they buy and fly these expensive machines.
So they're buying these weapons for personal satisfaction maybe and maybe for feeling powerful..... We all know they're narcissists
The Myanmar army is much richer than the Bangladesh army although the common citizens of Myanmar are generally not that we'll off.
In Myanmar, the army has a huge business empire and they have businesses in every field. Also they run a huge drug business particularly heroine and Yaba.
I believe if you can add all the direct and indirect earnings of the Burmese army, then the Burmese army have a greater defence budget than the Bangladesh army because BD army has no black money or business racket.
The dailys star said that yearly more than 50000, crores of Taka are being transported from Bangladesh to Myanmar and this money is going into the hands of the Burmese generals.
