it is possible that only 6 more yak-130 is comming for baf in mid of 2016. privious contact for total 16 yak-130 is reduce to 12 unit.

Why is that?

 

[masud]

Why is that?

don,t know, but probable money problem as usual...........

You sure it is reduced?

 

[masud]

You sure it is reduced?

since i am not the officeal person i can only wrote what i know. nothing SURE......

Bangladesh ordered 24 Russian Yak-130 light fighter jets worth $800 million in the final quarter of 2013, NEXT reduce to 16 Yak-130 but recent convartation indicate (6 Mi-35 attack helicopters and 3 Mi-171sh +12 yak-130 fitted with English-language cockpits)

Reducing the no of yak is not a bad thing..... It's a trainer.... It has not added any offensive capability to BAF. In absence of any concrete attempt at getting any new fighters there was no point in getting this many trainers..... 6 is probably enough.... Money should be diverted elsewhere.... But in all likelihood is being diverted into BAL scums pockets

But what is next? Various reports suggest BAF will acquire Su- 30 which will still keep us behind the IAF. This will be a new a line of aircraft for our pilots and technicians. Double cockpit means twice as many pilots. And in case of war where do we run for spares, replenishment, etc? We have only one lone "ally (?)" And that ally happens to be the top most potential threat to our sovereignty.

From what I hear it's more Migs..... You are correct in your assessment via-a-vis BAL holding us back. Their dependence on India for survival against the democratic aspiration of BD is understandable. However to be fair BNP allowed all of the armed forces to decay in their watch. It's a shame BD political classes anti-military position although I suppose the military caused such views through their own action.

Our internal issues are damaging our security capabilities.

Stupid Khaleda did not provide the military with any new weapons or equipments and even canceled some contracts....
Now she wants the military to rise and side her!

1. I am unable to find any sources which says that BD has received the 2nd batch of 5 Yak-130s from Russia.Can someone give me a source?No fb sources.

Also has Bangladesh AF retired it's 11 T-37B trainers?

 

[Barmaley]

I don't know, but i thinks BDAF need more of new jets. As for Yak - 130, no less then 24 jets.
