Bangladesh military 57th most-powerful in the world

[LuCiFeR_DeCoY]

This sort of report is the last attempt save the image of Bangladesh Military, orchestrated by ISPR. It appears that Bangladesh Military is trying to save their skin from public outcry and anger towards them for doing nothing for the provocation by Myanmar. Myanmar repeatedly showed that they have zero respect for Bangladesh, let along Rohingya.

BTW, the report does not mention that Myanmar is the 31st ranked Military but it says Bangladesh is 57th ranked. Nothing new about the report. Those who are not in military business they will be charmed by the report, have a burp then have a good night sleep! Mr Sajeeb Wazed will also be on twitter posting the report as he does and takes credit for doing nothing!

Well described brother, ignore the retard. যাদের লজ্জা নাই তাদের লজ্জা দেওয়া যায় না।
ইন্ডিয়া, মায়ানমারের কাছে এতো অপমানিত হবার পর, মাথা তুলে কথা বলা উচিত না।

Where does it say that those artilleries are owned by Bangladesh? The photos from a rice distributor do not mean that BA has these artilleries.

According to the link Myanmar has 516,000 military personal and Bangladesh has 225,000. If 3.2 billion USD's most of it goes to salary then with more then double personal what portion of the budget goes to the salary for personals?

Can anyone tell me what is the salary of the rag tag army of Myanmar? Their personals looks short, weak and physically unfit and inferior to Bangladeshi counterparts!!

Myanmar army owns huge and profitable monopoly enterprise like beer production companies. They use those money in addition to their defense budget that they ask from parliament. Besides their PPP (purchasing power parity) value of their budget is way more than Bangladesh.

57th number????

57th number????

It's actually better. I used to think BD would be at 157

The report cites that Bangladesh’s defence budget is $1.59bn as against China’s $161.7bn, India $51bn and Pakistan’s $7bn.

1.59 billion dollar is very outdated. BD's last year defence budget was 3.2 billion dollar.

According to the index, Bangladesh has an active military comprising of 160,000 personnel while India has 13,62,500, China 37,12,500 and Pakistan has 637,000 military personnel.

Again it is outdated. BD's had 160k troops when it's army was 7 infantry division strong. In the last 5 years, 3 new infantry division is raised.Naval and air force man power also increased significantly. Last year acting defence minister said BD's active armed forces personnel is 205k. Since than another new division is formed.My guess is 215k-220k active troops now.

According to the report, the Bangladesh Army has a total of 534 combat tanks, 942 armoured fighting vehicles, 18 self-propelled artillery guns, no towed artillery guns and 32 rocket projectors.

This is pure bullshit! according to IISS-2016 book, Bangladesh army has 841+ piece artillery including 363+ towed artillery.18 self propelled gun means GFP only counted the Nora-B52 and nothing else.Only 32 rocket projector also seems to be partial account.I guess GFP took these information from wikipedia where Bangladesh army equipment page is severely edited.

The report also says Bangladesh has a total of 89 Naval assets. The country owns six frigates, four corvettes, 28 patrol craft, five mine warfare vessels but has no aircraft carriers, destroyers and submarines — elements that contribute to its maritime strength.

This is not the case anymore.I hope they update Bangladesh's current weapon inventory and defence budget.If they update, then it is very possible that BD's rank in 2018 would come down to 40s instead of 57.

You are not giving any chance to your opponent to escape with some dignity left.

I am more Bangladeshi than you because I send remittance and looters loot the money

20000 army personnels send much more remittances than you . They send halal money not Haram money that yellow journalists earn from various anti bangladeshi NGOs.
And for your original post I believe you don't deserve any reply .

he he..here is idune v2.0..defense analyst my ***..

এটা যে idune নিজেই না সেইটাই বা কিভাবে বুঝবেন? Using vpn it's very easy to hide location you know.

Besides their PPP (purchasing power parity) value of their budget is way more than Bangladesh.

Burmese ppp is overestimated by a lot. This secretive junta ruled country only started to open up in the last five years beginning 2011. When IMF and world bank conducted study about 2011 ICP,they did not get enough information about the real picture of burmese economy.Their PPP multipliers is 5 times higher than nominal gdp, which is very doubtful. According to IMF , burmese nominal per capita is 1272 USD and ppp is 6285 dollar in 2017. Compare this with another ASEAN country Cambodia, whose nominal and ppp gdp was 1389 and 4010 dollar respectively in the same year.Although Cambodia looks more modern in realities and it's development indicators are better than myanmar. I think, in the next ICP calculation, IMF and World Bank will be able to calculate more realistically the ppp gdp of myanmar with better access of their data.
