These are old 1s BD uses during UN missions.

BD never sent Otokar Cobra 1 in UN mission AFAIK. They would have been transported via cargo plane if they wanted that. This picture was taken in Feni so they could be newly delivered. UN products never come through ship.

Also seen them on police duty with same paint

Perhaps you saw them.

US made Kingfisher 29 based patroller is one of the latest additions to the newly formed riverine infantry brigade of Bangladesh Army. The aluminium vessel carries 15 passengers with cargo easily and efficiently at speed up to 30 knots. A pair of Volvo D3-170 engines deliver a combined 340 hp at 4000 rpm. Total 52 boats of this model have been ordered by the army.

What is a name of this station in the picture? I can't read it fully.... It's really a beautiful station.... Walkway going in thick banana trees jungle looks really cool..... In south India we have such beautiful small railway stations.... :)

There is no reason whatsoever that these simple craft could not be made locally. I am surprised that license manufacture has not been initiated in Bangladesh. Far more complicated items are made in Bangladesh Ordnance Factory (BOF) and in DEW, respectively. Maybe they needed these in a hurry as initial batch and to have proof-of-concept to work the bugs out for local conditions.

On a side note, looks like the Metalcraft mini patroller has a pintle-mount up front for submachine-guns (not fitted).

The Railway station is called Jinardi. It is 4 KM from major station Ghorasal and 39 KM from Dhaka. The line is meter gauge in this area.

It’s funny how bengalis used to be discriminated because of short skinny stature and here we are a Bengali in sandhirt with standard gears that you would expect western soldiers to carry
