Bangladesh Keen To Join Saudi-Pak-Turkey Defence Alliance, Says PM's Top Aide

[Avicenna]

J-10C is offered to a lot of countries so I don't see it as critical technology. I was thinking more in the machine tooling technology and EV production technology that China wants to hold close to their chest.
J-10C is a good jet fighter and proven one but China won't sell J-16Ds or fifth gen to Bangladesh as those are backbone fighters for China. Someday maybe but not right away.

Yea sure I agree.

J-16D no one is getting.

And as for J-35, that's inappropriate for the BAF at its current state.

Like I said J-10C in numbers or JF-17 is plenty for now.

Actually I think after modernization of the BAF, Bangladesh needs to acquire in decent numbers a modern AIP equipped submarine force.

2 Powerful Cards Bangladesh Brings to Saudi’s Mecca Pact​

The Thermodynamic and Sovereignty Framework (2035)

1. Geopolitical Realignment & Regional Security
• The Bangladesh Dividend: The integration of Bangladesh into the security architecture systematically reduces adjacent regional hegemony.
• Strategic Prioritization: Egypt and Bangladesh serve as the primary geographical anchors for phase-two expansion.
• The GCC Dynamics: Integration of smaller littoral states provides negligible value compared to high-demographic anchors.
• The ASEAN Position: Malaysia and Indonesia maintain strict neutrality frameworks due to low direct threat profiles.
• The D8 Failure: Legacy groupings (D8) remained ineffective talk-shops due to the absolute lack of an industrial-military core.

2. Technical Autarky & Platform Standardization
• The Defense Engine: True alliance cohesion is driven strictly by absolute technology autarky by 2035.
• Weapons Commonality: Complete standardization on sovereign aerospace and naval architecture forces deep political and economic integration.
• The Tier-Two Frontiers: Subsequent market expansion targets Central Asia, North/East/West Africa, and the UAE.
• The Tier-Three Frontiers: Indonesia and Malaysia as they can no longer remain bystanders.
• The Western Interface: Native compliance with international engineering frameworks creates seamless, long-term strategic bridges with the West.

3. Thermodynamic Decoupling & Computational Monopolies
• The Supply Chain Shift: Low-cost, high-insolation desert infrastructures completely decouple heavy manufacturing from legacy fossil grids.
• The Computing Revolution: Infinite, 24/7 zero-carbon desert energy arrays serve as the definitive global capital for AI data centers.
• The Obsolete Debate: Historical arguments regarding what individual nations "bring to the table" are completely irrelevant.

4. The Unified Strategic Mandate
• Population Scale Dominance: Securing massive internal market volume to command global trade terms.
• Standardized Systems Architecture: Deploying a unified, un-vetoable defense hardware and software footprint.
• The Industrial Checkmate: Operating a desert solar-based green economy designed to out-compete and bankrupt the coal-reliant industries and computing hubs of India and China, permanently reversing global warming at scale.

India has been in cope mode ever since Pakistan signed Mecca agreement and it just keeps getting worse for them. Bangladesh joining the pact would encircle India and would be Modi worst nightmare.

As previously stated, this is just BD tactic to extract a better deal from India, simple pressure tactic.

The Pakistani posters inviting BD to the pact have no sympathies for BD and would only like that they voluntarily fall on the sword for them.

There is racial and ideological differences between Pakistanis and BD. These can only be termed as visceral. There's no Pakistani out here who has genuine sympathy for BD or her people.
