Stalled.Any news on the frigate program ?
So lying about BAF wasn't enough?

BNS Prottoy on her visit to Mumbai
I’m wondering why would anyone need a diving bell at 100m depth or a decompression chamber for the matter
Helium saturation doesn’t get into the blood until about 300m or more
100m is scuba depth
Did they just use the image from Marinelink?
The news could be true, just that they went to Marinelink and used a representative image. In which case of course, they should have marked it as such.
You and I will be in our old age homes waiting to die before Bangladesh will build a destroyer or submarineit's also about taking the initiative and achieving the ability to build warships on our own so in future we can think about building destroyer size vessel and hopefully even LHD and submarine.
Blame CDDL's MD for people's impatience. He was the one who gave that timeline. You don't wait this long to build a ship with ToT to counter adversaries move rather you build more powerful ship next time to meet the new challenges. Or better build a modular design to leave enough room for future upgrade. Six frigate won't gonna cut it anyway. Forget taking time on frigate project, what's going on with KSY's new shipyard, CDDL's new dry dock and design house? How are we supposed to proceed to build six frigates locally when no infrastructure is available yet?
I don't expect BN to work on/getting rail gun, laser weapon system and hyper-sonic missile anytime soon. Only thing we can get now is the radar capable of detecting hypersonic threat. So our current threats are supersonic AShM and ballistic missile mainly. I see BN's thinking about countering supersonic threat as it's interested in Sea Ceptor and already inducted FL-3000N but why aren't they choosing a supersonic AShM yet instead of new cruise missile? BN could've obtained CM-302 for it's future warships or collaborate with China-Turkey to manufacture one. Anyway BN's future frigate will most likely have:-
That's the most possible layout our frigate will get. So the displacement will be between 4000-6000 tons.
- Guided/extended Artillery Shell.
- Cruise/Supersonic AShM with possible land attack mode.
- 32 SAM.
- one missile/gun based CIWS.
- two or single AESA radar.
- two triple torpedo tubes.
- two RWS.
What else there to think about? It's already clear that we won't get whole Turkish system in our ship and i explained why in previous thread. So we gotta rely on Chinese-EU system until we become self-sufficient.
No, it's not FINE operating second hand frigates and small corvettes with FM-90 and FL-3000N. Most of navies already moved on to new types of modern vessel and we are still limping towards our goal. It's not only about building these six frigates, it's also about taking the initiative and achieving the ability to build warships on our own so in future we can think about building destroyer size vessel and hopefully even LHD and submarine.
No, they copy-pasted the image and whole specification part.
