Bangladesh Navy

[DESERT FIGHTER]

Another good news Bangladesh is buying submarine rescue vehicle from China.
Bangladesh wants to get 6-8 submarine from 2021/22

6-8 submarines?
Pak bought those for 5 billion... and it would take years for them to deliver.

Whats BDs total defence budget again? 2.7-8 billion?
Good luck with 6-8 subs ...

Yes very ambitious goal for our ''Forces goal 2030'' Its challenging but our economy is growing so our defense budget too.
we will order 6-7 submarine from 2021/22 delivery will start later .

We are supposed to have 6 subs by 2030 (not sure whether our training Mings do count or not). Next batch of subs are most likely be of Chinese origin, since we have been taking sub training from China, with Chinese equipment and China is also involved with the construction of Sheikh Hasina Submarine Base at Pekua.

BD defence budget is 4 billion US dollars when arms imports are taken into account.
Remember the budget is growing at 7% a year at the same rate as GDP growth.

Nope.
It is 3.2 billion dollars for this fiscal but does not include arms imports which comes from special allocation.

Your source is for last year which is correct.

This year it is 3.2 billion dollars but it does not include arms imports.

If you do not want to believe me then be my guest.

The above does not include military imports which usually is a loan from China or Russia that just gets added onto the BD overall debt.

BD defence spending will rise at the expected GDP growth rate(7-8% a year) of the economy till 2030 at least. That is why BD Navy is starting to construct 2 4000+ tonne frigates next year. There are reports it could be anywhere from 12-16 such ships by 2030. BD military aims to match Pakistan conventionally by 2030 and so a large defence budget is required.

just add a billion or so to the published number.... that would give you an approximate idea about the overall defence budget..... that extra billion is for large defence purchases.... and even then, the number that you arrive at, won't include a lot of other stuff..... and add to that, the recent added impetus on top of the usual growth.....

so, my advice is, stop counting.....

Sure sure.

2.8 billion was your total defence budget from 2016-17.

3.2 is for 18.

Does your highness think your so called loans come from another source rather than you defence budget?

Great.... Just hope you know that rumours are worth ...s....t.. in real life... and you can only match Pak ... if Pak economy somehow miraculously doesnt grow.... else... by 2030... Our Navy would be much much larger than you think...

Even as of today... Pak navys current and confirmed forseeable future looks something like this:

13+ AIP subs

5+ Coastal subs

4 F-22P Firgates

4 new Frigates

4 Istanbul class MILGEMs

8 FACs

8 Damen and Swiftship corvettes

12 PC3 Orions

4 ATR MPAs upgraded by germany


OTHER VESSELS AND SHIPS.. including an under development Nuclear sub.

Dude what is wrong with you?!

I am talking about this fiscal(2017-2018) which is 3.2 billion dollars and you are talking about 2.8 billion dollars from last fiscal(2016-2017). Go with whatever fiscal you want.

No defence loan debts are paid from the defence budget, as that is just goes into the total debt pot and serviced from separate budget. BD'shis know a LOT MORE than you about how BD finances arms imports.

FYI, BD economy has outgrown the Pakistani one since the 1990s and even with boost from CPEC, it is still growing 2% a year quicker. Also since BD only spends a tiny 1.5% of GDP on defence there is much more scope to increase this than in Pakistan, and the Rohingya issue has destroyed all peaceniks for good in BD and we shall see a sustained increase in GDP spent on defence over the next 10 years. Matching Pakistani military conventionally by 2030 is a realistic goal for BD planners.

Bhai @DESERT FIGHTER - dick measuring ka faida keya?

We are happy to see Pakistan Navy grow more powerful. Role of Bangladesh Navy is different.

Bangladesh Navy's expansion has been long anticipated for its role in Bay of Bengal, even for basic Economic Zone duties. Very little chance of Bangladesh going into armed conflict with any Navy unless Myanmar Navy tries something funny. Economic zone protection by Naval force is a minimum requirement.

Establishing comprehensive maritime security, law and order by Bangladesh Navy is a must given the current global and regional security scenario. It includes,

1. Safety and smooth operations for Bangladesh' three container ports & related shipping lanes,
2. Prevention of poaching/theft of marine resources by neighboring countries and
3. Protection of off-shore oil and gas facilities and resources in Bangladesh waters.

Honestly you may have little clue about the scope and extent of BN activity which is much more comprehensive than PN, other than offensive submarine patrol activity. Eventually by 2030 I expect BN to be the second largest Navy in the subcontinent, which it may already be, other than in submarine fleet. That size increase is not for offensive purpose, but rather for peaceful goals and as a deterrent. Please study our Naval activity for starters.
