Bangadesh Air force Fighters to Trainers Ratio

Pathetic? Why there are entire Bangladesh air-force staff sitting around sucking on thumbs like babies because they can't plan better than us Internet Ninjas. We know better...

The latest variant of PL-9 is called PL-9C (as seen above) with improved multi-band all-aspect InSb IR seeker, a radio fuse and a new programmable digital processor giving it a greater IRCCM capability and higher killing probability. Speed is Mach 3.5 and load is 40g. Its forward control fins are similar to those of AIM-9L (double delta). PL-9C range is around 20km and it is expected to be the standard air-to-air weapon for the new F-7BGI series exported to Bangladesh.

According to credible sources the KLJ-6F Fire control Radar for F-7 BGI " has...86 km+ Range which is near BVR or BVR ... and can track 6 and engage 2 enemy aircraft simultaneously."

Since it is secret/classified information - we can't vouch for it, but true BVR missiles like the SD-10/SD-10A which have 70 KM range have been inducted as well with the F-7 BGI since it is logical that the KLJ-6F Fire control radar allows the use of the SD-10 and its increased range over the PL-9C. Cost or induction technology is certainly not a factor. CATIC sources as well as Jane's have proven since 2012 that the SD-10 was designed for J-7, F-7 and J-8 as well as the newer J-11, J-12, FC-1/JF-17 platforms.

With seven hard-points F-7BGI can carry a combination of Air to Air missiles, Laser Guided and GPS Guided Bombs and other Precision Guided Munitions. F-7 BGI is capable of carrying anti-ship missiles like the C-704. but you will never find such pictures because such evidence would be a strategic affront to any neighboring nation. But if the C-704 can be carried in a belly hardpoint, so can a pair of SD-10's.

So these measures are cost effective enough for Bangladesh' defensive airforce needs which is not in a paranoid adversarial scenario with any nation nor is engaged in a game of military one-upmanship. Problems with neighboring nations are far more easily (and maturely) resolved with diplomacy, detente and political leverage. Besides - no one is interested in invading Bangladesh anytime soon.

BAF considers the F-7BGI a stop-gap measure until better fighters than the Mig-29 are inducted. It will be foolhardy to compare the F-7BGI to F-7PG or F-7BG. There is a world of difference in capabilities between the two types.

I was looking for pictures of F7BGI with 7 hard points. But didnt find any :undecided:

Yup you're right, I was quoting from CATIC literature as well. CATIC may refer to wingtip mounted hardpoints for sidewinders, which are not standard on export F-7BGI's or F-7NI's. Otherwise we're left with the standard five hardpoints. My bad.

There has been a lot of speculation about BAFs BVR capabilities.... if you are saying these missiles have been fully inducted then that is encouraging. I personally have serious doubts about BDs military planning.... not because of the military but rather the lack of ambition of the political sphere.

A 10 sqd airforce is good enough.....but the speed of the buildup has been far too slow.... Like the navy BAF needs injection of cash fast...

Fact is BAF F-7 any version does not have the capability to fire BVRAAMS. Putting in a word like "according to credible sources" is a ridiculous thing as there is no such sources.

BG1,s does not have
1) BVRAAMS capability,
2) KLJ-6F radar, and
3) Anti-ship missile capability.

Not a single credible source validates that the junk fighter F-7BG1, have the 3 capabilities listed above.

The OP was trying to lay the bait so someone would come out with some proof - but it ain't happenin'.

So much for false-flaggers, trolls and cunning tactics....
