With that logic I can invade Vietnam with a banana

BD India are strategic allies.... BD Japan are not.....

Bangladesh India are not strategic allies. Our strategic outlook is different. We consider China a friend and ally whereas India views China as an enemy. We are a member of BRI project but India is not.

 

[SpaceMan18]

Eh China

Bangladesh India are not strategic allies. Our strategic outlook is different. We consider China a friend and ally whereas India views China as an enemy. We are a member of BRI project but India is not.

China and India both want to control Bangladesh but China is doing it in a smarter way via infrastructure where India doesn't give us much but stupid spies to keep us from developing.

Bangladesh has to use both India and China for its own interest

The subs will be chinese.... question is would it be song or yuan....i am hoping for the latter obviously....they will be 2nd hand one assumes....

What we know so far BN will order 4 new subs....personally i would order more.... each sub is worth many surface asset in terms both offensive and and deterrence. 6 subs significantly deters any possibility of a blockade of the bay.
