In anycase, I hope it is true that BAF is looking towards non Chinese and Russian options.
If that happens BAF will need to change the whole training fleet and infrastructures. Then it will delay the MRCA procurement more, specially the choosing the backbone of the fleet. Cost will rise, govt will need to increase the budget. Also what will be the fate of our Yak-130 and K-8W fleet?
Besides it will be just like choosing Eastern origin fighter only and putting all eggs in one basket. The west do more weapon politics than Russia and China. They act like they own us. You can already see that from that retard PDF member here. USA forbade Pakistan to use F-16 against India.
What good will procuring american fighter jets do if we can't use them against our adversaries properly? What if the west gets upset if we take harsh action against Rohingya as these cunts are currently being quite troublesome and currently the terrorist hill-tracts are also making some chaos? The humanitarian organizations cry for both parties.
What if they decide to do weapon politics then? While they are sweet talking to us they are not sanctioning full embargo on Myanmar, still trying to enhance relationship with them. USA is just using this Rohingya issue and BAF's current dilemma to get BD in their club and reduce Chinese-Russian influence here to counter them. Also notice they rejected to sell or approve other country like Italy to sell fighter to us but now they are offering their product without congress obstacle? Do they smell money now?

People are dancing about US but BD should take step VERY CAREFULLY. The best solution is to stick with EU, Russian and Chinese gear not bring any US stuff which has some serious string attached. USA won't sell their F-16V with full weapon package anyway. But one thing i can hope that this sudden US-EU relationship might sweeten Russian deal.

What moron came up with that one?
Probably because there wasn't any other option and AJT was also suited for Russian MRCA.
You know I used to think you’re an avid bdmilitary fan, especially of you know who
You can say that about Hridoy Mahbub!! I just try to follow every news i find from defence pages but that doesn't mean i don't think some news total BS. I just stopped saying what i really have in my mind cause "বললে চাকরি থাকবে না।" Another thing is this guy's reports sometimes come true and provides more material and inside news than anyone, so can't really risk it either. And sometimes he gets triggered and treats people badly. Other local pages have same case. They are not matured like other international pages. So i rather be a fan of Dylan Malyasov and Xavier Vavasseur. QUWA's Billal vai is also good.
