A trio of Bangladesh Air Force (BAF) MiG-29.

[Major d1]

At present, eight MiG-29 (six single-seat S and two dual-seat UB) are in service with the BAF's 8th Squadron.

Although a capable airframe, the BAF's Fulcrums do not possess a modern radar and avionics suite; an upgrade is not in the pipeline.

At this stage, the BAF is likely weighing its options for a new multi-role fighter platform. With Chengdu F-7s also in service, it might be prudent to look for a single and very capable platform to make up the fighter fleet in the future.

Given that Bangladesh's leading suppliers are Russia and China, the Mikoyan MiG-29M/M2 and Chengdu FC-20 may end up being on the cards. Granted, it may not be an easy acquisition, but it is one that is certainly needed, and soon.

More than SH, it's the Indians who would object to Chinese jets. You guys might end up with Indian used MiG-29s or new Teja.

The AL government in 1996-2001 purchased eight MiG-29 fighters for the air .... The Forces Goal Vision 2030 is intended to enable the Bangladesh Air Force
