Bangladesh Sizes Up Typhoons for Fighter Requirement

You got triggered? How am I on here all day? It's been 20 hours last time. You are a Bengali nationalist that did not like my comment? Truth hurts. I have been to Dhaka. Your capital city is almost like a war zone. So crowded and dirty.

Like your capital city?

You want me to post more? Seen enough?

I do not necessarily believe JF17 is completely off the table for BAF because of politics given its recent technological advancements.

BD requires western and eastern jet. If EFT becomes a reality then J10 or JF17 is natural low of the high low mix.

BAL wont be in power forever and even if they continue it is not completely off the table in my opinion.

Indian pressure can only delay BAF development....it wont be so forever.

Off topic but do you know what real hindutva is?

Well I think there is some truth in the Indian guy's post.
Bangladesh can't defeat India on their own(Though India would get a$$ kicked by some countries while invading), so BAF may choose a different strategy compared to PAF. They may hold a smaller but advanced airforce focus on air-defending and intercepting tasks.
The strategy balance in South Asia is holding, and there will be no war,no thanks to some 'peace-loving' Indians.
Hope BAF could acquire these planes earlier.

It is my assessment (as is for 99% of the Bangladeshis here I believe) that the reason for us not having a substantive and offensive air combat component is because of interference by India.

Air superiority can and will change the game in any battlefield (even defensively) and Indians always opposed our having it. Thank you Hasina.

They also never wanted us to a true three dimensional Navy (much less any military forces period), but Pinjra sey Chirya bhag giya.

When we got our subs, their Sanghi politicos wetting their collective dhotis on talk-shows was truly great to see.

Such a horrible neighbor I wish on no country in the world - no offense to sane Indians.

Actually to be honest, because of our lack of strategic dept, i dont expect our air force to last long, so what we have to do is to invest in Drones , SRBM and intelligences to hit india hard in the core to prevent them from even thinking to invade us.

These Typhoons would even swot JF-17 Block 3s out of the skies like flies.

Jf-17 is designed to work in a strike package, with AWACS and other network support. If properly employed, Typhoons will lose lit bit advantage it has in aerial combat.

It will see PL-15 coming out of nowhere.

Good comment. But as we all know, stance mainly needs to be defensive, yet excellently so, using top quality assets and well-positioned.

L'Airbus DS Typhoon pourrait ravir le Bangladesh au Dassault Aviation Rafale. - avionslegendaires.net​

13 février 2022, par Arnaud. Nos lectrices et lecteurs les plus assidus le savent : depuis juin dernier le Bangladesh a officiellement lancé le plan Force Goal 2030 visant à acquérir

www.avionslegendaires.net

THE AIRBUS DS TYPHOON COULD DELIGHT BANGLADESH FROM DASSAULT AVIATION RAFALE.​

Our most frequent readers know that since last June Bangladesh officially launched the Force Goal 2030 plan to acquire a new model of multi-role fighter aircraft. After having launched negotiations with France almost two years ago around the Dassault Aviation Rafale F4, this country now seems to want to make an about-face in favor of the Airbus DS Typhoon Tranche 4. The bad diplomatic relations between Bangladeshis and Indians are probably not unrelated. However, the American aircraft manufacturer Lockheed-Martin and its Swedish competitor Saab are present in ambushes.

For the record, Force Goal 2030 is a vast program to modernize the Bangladeshi armies with an entire chapter on combat aviation. It provides for the withdrawal over the period 2025-2030 of the Chengdu F-7 Fishcan fighters of Chinese origin and Mikoyan MiG-29 Fulcrum of Russian origin in favor of a single multi-role aircraft. Force Goal 2030 is now driving the nail in the coffin by insisting that the future aircraft must be produced in North America or Western Europe. Chinese and Russian aircraft manufacturers are therefore directly targeted in order to guarantee their exclusion from the competition.

Two years ago, the French Minister of the Armed Forces, Florence Parly, entered into negotiations in this direction with the Bangladeshi Prime Minister, Sheikh Hasina. These were articulated around about fifteen Dassault Aviation Rafale F4 omnirole combat aircraft. Despite good relations, it now seems certain that the talks have not yielded much convincing results. The Asian press is increasingly insisting that India's supplier countries are being diplomatically pressed not to arm Bangladesh. Diplomatic relations between the two neighbors are not good, against a backdrop of inter-religious tensions.
Yet the Bangladesh Air Force was clearly in favor of the Rafale.

So of course this could play into the hands of the two Western fighters reputed to be much cheaper to buy than the Rafale F4: the American Lockheed-Martin F-16V Viper and the Swedish Saab JAS 39E/F Gripen. And it's true. Yet these two planes currently have only an outsider role in Bangladesh.

Because now it is Airbus DS and its partner n°1 Leonardo who are focusing their efforts on Bangladesh. If the latter cannot, diplomatically and / or politically, buy the Rafale F4 he can invest in the Typhoon Tranche 4. Often presented, probably a little wrongly, as the real competitor of the French jet the European fighter is a little struggling currently. He no longer really chains export contracts and is weighed down by the Austrian affair. Especially the aircraft is much more marked as a machine adapted to the Near and Middle Eastern market thanks in particular to its Kuwaiti, Omani, and Saudi contracts. Bangladesh could truly open up the Asian market to it, as India did for the Rafale. We are now talking about sixteen combat aircraft, including three two-seater operational transformation aircraft.

As French, and as Europeans, we do not have to sulk our pleasure. Because if the Rafale F4 now seems rather out of the races it is Airbus Defense & Space that leads the market. And that too can be good for our national and continental industry.
Case to follow.
