I don't think its too late.
BD can always go the China route and get a BAF specific version of FC-1.
That would only make the most sense out of all the options.
Glad to see Thunder perform well.
It is only proven to shot down Mig-21.

Instead of going for FC-1, BD should opt for a complete different aircraft jointly developed by BD with some foreign partner. In the meantime buy J-10 as front line fighter.I don't think its too late.

As BD has no problem in buying Engine or Avionics from east or west, there should not be any problem for BD engineers to design a air frame... may be we could start with low tech and then go up the ladder.

BD is in no position to develop anything.
Just buy something off the shelf and develop a real tactical capability first.

Nations one tenth our size are efficient producers of multiple arms lines (ex: Belorussian Republic). Not to speak of Romania, Serbia, Bosnia etc. Hungary is however in another league.
While I agree - one has to start for change somewhere.....
I don't believe what we have today is either ideal or self-sufficient. If you start getting indigenous capability at 10% in any large arms purchase that is still a start of something. Then you can ramp up slowly - given budget and resources. No nation got to 100% in one day. Just dismissing this away is the wrong approach.

A nation of hundred and sixty million cannot remain beholden to outside sources forever for every minor arms requirement, it is neither sustainable nor practical. We already possess the talent for being self-sufficient in this, all that is required is to manage and harness it. Or we can grow talent, given our growing budget. It is simply that the resolve at the top level for the political guts is absent.
well, Khan says that news on those fighters will be announced this month.... let's see
best option is gripen but sanctions can loom and j10a ...
a localized version FC1 would have been perfect but relationships with pakistan mean that it will not happen
if bangladesh wants less than 20 jets it should go for cost effective gripen
if it wants 60-80 jets it should got for j10 vs fc1
in my opinion no need for any jets, Bangladesh has good relationship with everyone and Myanmar will not mess with Bangladesh with china and india support
