What's new

Bangladesh Air Force

I have a doubt that F-7BGI is capable enough to replace these super-capable (in its class) deep penetration attack aircraft. These are legends. Even PLAAF has not found any suitable replacement for these.

F-7 is not a multi-role deep penetration plane like Mig-29. It is basically a bomber with functions also of a fighter. I have heard that BGI is F-7 only in name. Its design is completely different. If it is true then there is reason to believe that BAF is deceiving its neighbours. However, even if it is a normal BGI without a deep penetration capability BGIs from Cox's Bazaar base will certainly be able to bomb nearby targets in Sittwe and other military assets of Burma.

The MiG-29SE variant cannot hit ground targets.

The BGI is likely to be for close-air-support role like A-5 is. And yes, the A-5s would be replaced. They are getting old.
 
New F-7BGIs soon on their way from China to Bangladesh:

The color scheme is soothing to the eyes,and i really liked the thundercat insignia.Looks like a beautiful little aircraft :D
 
all other countries are in the process of retiring their MIG-21's and F-7's and BDAF is inducting new one's......is this a good decision considering how old the fighter is???
 
WHATS THE DIFFERENCE? similar to f-7Bg! no change!!
I suspected earlier there wouldn't be any physical difference between the two.Whatever,its time for some real deal with China.I hope China will give us J-10 when Khaleda Zia comes to power after next election.

It is rather the function of the aircraft. F7 is our interceptors to intercept enemy planes. If i am not wrong india, pakistan and china also uses a lot of interceptors. Our interceptors are aging and are limited in number, so bought a few more.

Since our Military is defence based, we have interceptors to guard our skies. We want to go for multi role aircrafts but since we are a poor country, we are using the F7s as stop gap before buying new fighter jets
 
What are the main differences between the Bangladeshi J-7BG and Pakistan J-7P and J-PG ?

How is the relation from Bangladesh Army-Air Force to Pakistani Military ? ( sorry for wrong topic)
 
I am a little disappointed after seeing the new F-7BGI pictures. I was expecting a new shape. However, I hope, this plane is fitted with stronger engines that can give it higher speed, better manuevering, shorter climbing time and are more equipped with precision guided (?) bombing devices. Can Chinese Dragon post the specifications of BGI?
