Bangladesh Air Force

They have undocumented economy and clear help from China and few friends behind the veil.

Myanmar is an enemy as long as the awami league is in power.

All defense purchases should be made with india in mind

Well I do not think it is that big looking at the state of the country's infrastructure and their living standards.

True China is there to back them up but even they are somewhat wary of being too dependent on China and so buying a lot of weapons from Russia as well.

It would be much cheaper for Myanmar to buy 16 JF17 Block 3 with PL15 than
BAF's purchase of 16 Eurofighters. MAF could get them for a third of the price for
what BAF will pay for Eurofighters.

Would be nice to give our "friendly" neighbors to the East a Gripen sandwich!

Make it happen BAF!

DGDP issued another tender for kh 31A missiles for the upgraded Mig 29 BMs.

@Michael Corleone @ghost250 BAF tender identifies MiG-29s as of the B variant. This further confirms that they are not of the SE variant.

 

[Michael Corleone]

Well 4 Mig-29s of BAF have already been upgraded to the BM standard and they can fully use the R-27 missile for long-range BVR duels now. The other 4 are in the process of being upgraded.

16 F-7BGIs and 8 Mig-29BMs will be no pushover for MAF and BAF may be able to hold them off for 1-2 weeks.

Remember that 30 or so Mig-29s in Myanmar airforce are of the older 1980s tech, without a modern radar that can fully utilise BVR missiles. The 16 JF-17s and the 12 SU-30Ms will be the real threat to BAF and most are yet to arrive in Myanmar as of this time.

Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if rafale ECM jams those radars and shoots em down.
besides the migs are nowhere to be seen. You would think they would fly during bongopapa’s birthdayanniversary but nah

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a parts in galore. What we know is it’s 1st gen non Warsaw Pact export version but b variants had initial radars while SE had n-019ME radar which ours had till now. Which is why I presumed it was SE

Why would anything change once BAL is out?

16 jets still ain't anything without proper SAMs or AWACS/EW

16 Gripens or Eurofighters will allow BAF to dominate the MAF with their far better radars, EW systems and Meteor BVR missiles. Remember that BAF will soon have 8 upgraded Mig-29BMs to provide support where their better radars and electronics will turn the planes into proper BVR platfirms.

Yes AWACs are required to fully utilise them but at this stage with an adversary like Myanmar it is still sufficient to neutralise their airforce comfortably.

MRSAMs are desperately required but that is a more general requirement to protect vital infrastructure and military installation, rather than a specific BAF requirement.

Sure but you kinda forgot about our " buddy " to the West that we have to also deal with

True and BAF needs to approach Sweden for 2-3 Global Eye AWACS.

Those have 12 hour endurance each and so perfect to provide coverage over BD and into the Bay of Bengal.

True , I'm honestly surprised that BAF hasn't bought an AWACS yet which is weird and do they even have plans for AWACS or EW aircrafts ?

Would be great for us. Burma could dream buying these... Swedish won’t sell it to them if Thai and us will operate them at the same time
