Bangladesh Air Force


The Prime Minister later visited the Aerospace Research and Development Complex (ARDC) and observed its research and development activities.

Various indigenously developed UAVs, (drones, kamikaze drones, interceptor drones and vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) systems,) were displayed during the visit. He also watched the flight of an indigenous quadcopter.

Tarique Rahman expressed hope that the development of such modern aviation systems using the Air Force's own technological capabilities will mark significant progress in research, innovation and technological self-reliance.



@LeonBlack08 @Avicenna @AbuShalehRumi @Michael Corleone @Arthur BAF has developed/is developing ISR UAV, Kamikaze UAV, interceptor UAV. VTOL UAV/quadcopter.

I am pretty sure they intend to mass produce them with newly built $50 millions manufacturing plant as they previously stated. This is good work.

Better than nothing. I would love a million swarm of drones if not a 10 squadron fighter fleet

We need both.

If conventional systems don't deter a lunatic from invading Bangladesh, we need to have the swarms of drones for the second layer of defence.

Even Iranians rue the fact that if they had a competent air force and air defence, they would have an even greater control of the war with US.
 
Who is this gentlemen here, I heard him talking about J-10CE, what is the context behind this?
DR. Zahed Ur Rahman, Bangladeshi Prime minister’s information and broadcasting adviser with state minister rank.
 

This is the situation BAF needs to avoid desperately. The need for mobile autonomous C-UAS is fundamental to today's warfighting. You need an automated radar and C-2 system like this- 1789384676212.png
(Cost only few millions each in single digit. Preferably equipped with soft kill jammer too)

That is networked with autonomous high speed drone interceptor. Good thing is BAF is already developing that part. It needs to partner with Turkish or Chinese OEM for radar and C2 part with some degree of ToT. And that needs to be done before we operationalize J-10CEs.

Today in History

On 19 September 1965, Pakistan Air Force air warriors once again roared into action under the fiercest of fire. Striking enemy positions with devastating precision and engaging hostile fighters head-on, they transformed courage into combat power—dominating the skies through unmatched skill, audacity and an unyielding will to fight.

After successfully executing a ground attack strike in the Sialkot-Chawinda sector, Flt Lt Saif-ul-Azam, flying an F-86 Sabre, found himself separated from his formation when IAF Gnats launched a surprise attack. Undeterred by weak radio communication, he engaged the enemy on his own and shot down an Indian Gnat, displaying exceptional flying skill, alertness and devotion to duty.
