Do long range heavily armed UAVs have a future in BAF? Arguments for and against needed.


For example this WJ-700 can launch long range anti-ship missiles as well as CM-102 anti-radiation missiles allowing SOW launching distances and SEAD/DEAD.

Absolutely must be under consideration and reality when finances allow. BD needs to keep its sea lanes clear and without doubt the ultimate aim must be the ability to hit IN Andaman bases and assets that are to be serviced from there.

These will provide bang for the buck.

A long time ago, Sukarno, the Indonesian President had commented like this, " If Andaman is not with Indonesia it should have been with east Pakistan. But, under what logic it is an Indian territory?

Lol if you are talking in distance, then it should have been Myanmar's. Culturally most of them are Hindus. But most importantly you got your own freedom because of us, you are in position to claim Andaman.

In any conflict scenario BD first objective would be to neutralise IAF airbases followed by neutralising IN andaman bases.

This has and remain the aim.

Yep and that is why BA recently brought 18 Turkish T-300B 120km MLRS.

Neutralizing Andaman airbases...

These Bangladeshis sure suffer from weird delusions. Only @bluesky understands that India has surrounded Bangladesh from all three sides with lakhs of personnel and equipments. Our airbases in Assam and WB are sufficient to give these hapless Bangladesh a reality check.

Btw, you are encouraged to spend your hard earned taka to go for a vacation to the Havelock. Just don't pole vault ( your usual habit) over to the Sentinel islands, else you might end up with a needle up your rear.

Myanmar's

Myanmar has already been handed the Coco islands as a goodwill gesture by our visionary leaders of the past.

Maybe Akinci could have a future in BD, it has great SOMs that can take out Indian airbases from afar.

Knocking out andaman base is the key to BD defense.

Incremental and progressive increase in capability will incorporate such capability. Andaman is a fixed target and there in lies its weakness.

What is at Andaman?

What is at Andaman?

Andaman islands are a group of islands in the indian ocean. It rightfully belongs to Bangladesh but was illigally given to indians by the british during partition. India has a naval base and will use to enforce a blockade in a time of war.

Removal of its operation capacity is of paramount importance for defense of BD.

Andaman was not a part of MM history at any time. Andaman should rejoin its mother country Bangladesh.

Indian Naval base in Andaman will be target of strikes by BAF and BN at opening of hostilities - that would have been one of the main reasons that BAF wanted SU-30SM.

according to history, the island was occupied by natives before the British arrived. Ancient kingdoms of India and Myanmar had contact with the islands since long ago. Also, the people of the islands spoke the Mon-Khmer language. They also had a Tibeto-Burmese ancestry. So I don't understand how it belongs to Bangladesh. It makes sense that India owns it because there is a large Indian population there.
