"They (the Chinese) are fast tracking the production (of J-10s) to make BAF the launch customer...." This was posted in 2018.
Poor CAC must have J-10s sitting idle for almost two years now. Hilarious.

The Czech news makes me think that l39 NG will be the intermediate jet trainer Bangladesh will make in bd with tot and call it in house manufacturing

Would be nice but its kind of redundant with K-8W.

But I seem to have remember reading that BAF didn't like K-8W all that much but pursued it as other options would have taken longer to put into service. (assuming they were referring to L-39NG)

That being said, would LOVE for Bangladesh to make L-39NG in country.

Yep k8 was a disappointment and not a top choice but there was no good alternatives

Does BD have any other ties to the Czech Republic or Aero?
Apart from purchase of l39 albatross and some radars and jammers, not much. From what I read today, they want to cooperate with Bangladesh in manufacture of aero products and offered cooperation in l39 NG

We also used the LET L-410 turboprops back in the nineties for our private airlines operating from Tejgaon and now we use them for the Air force.

Czechia (then known as Czechoslovakia) cooperation with Pakistan/Bangladesh goes back to 1960's in that we utilized their Skoda-provided electricity generation powerplants in Bangladesh.

Other than Russia, Ukraine and to some extent Poland, Czechs were (as reluctant members of Warsaw pact) the only country in that pact boasting an advanced aerospace industry. These four countries in Eastern Europe also boasted a long long tradition of aerospace excellence dating back before the 1st world war.

I agree with @Michael Corleone that cooperation with Czech industry will be good for us, most of their powerplants in aircraft are now also Western origin (GE turboprops etc.) and therefore easier to certify.

They also had a decent tank building history, germans basically used their tanks to push into poland, France etc... they even made some during the Cold War, although not their own designs

Well odds are BAF are gonna waste massive amounts of money in order to build like 5 K-8's that wont even get off the ground

Yup. The very capable (for its day) Panzer 38T (designated T for Tschechoslowakei, which is the German spelling for this country) and the less successful earlier version, Panzer 35T as well. Germans took over the Czechoslovakian factory that was producing these tanks and kept on making them.

Even after the PzKpFw 38T's got obsolete after a few years (when the Russians and British started fielding better tanks), Germans used the hulls to produce anti-tank self-propelled guns and anti-aircraft platforms based on the Panzer 38T hulls. Sorry for the off topic posting but this just goes to show their design tradition which was superior to everyone else except the Germans and large powers at that time.

Jagdpanzer 38 (Sd.Kfz. 138/2 or commonly known as 'Hetzer'), was a German light tank destroyer based on a modified Czechoslovakian Panzer 38(t) chassis.

Who even is that ?

A senior member who had access to BD Military articles. Never mind.

Are you sure he's "girls generation", I think there is a user here on PDF who is girls generation and its not Hridoy.

Exactly same way of talking, same attitude, grammatical error, both are mods and provide wrong infos.
