There is a good probability to induct C17 in the fleet.

Hope it's not this guy!

I forgot where so I can't place a link but I've read something about that too.

Rumors until otherwise obviously.

I think it was sarcasm cz C17 production has been stopped by Boeing , last one was delivered to IAF

IF we get C17, it'll be secondhand probably.

Used my friend.

Used.....

Quite hard to get. They are just too good in what they do. BAF can try for Kawasaki C2 , quite similar to C17

RAF plans to downsize. We will get from them probably

C-2 is too costly and carry half the payload of C-17. A-400 can carry more, cheaper and we already have experience on purchasing from Europe. It can even land on beach. So if C-17 is not possible then perhaps A-400M will come. But i would choose IL-76 if i wanna carry more and close to what C-17 can.

Bangladesh seems to be interested more in Western transports i.e. C-130H/J, C-17, or now A400 rather than older Il-76 or the new and still yet unexported Y-20.

Bangladesh seems to be interested more in Western transports i.e. C-130H/J, C-17, or now A400 rather than older Il-76 or the new and still yet unexported Y-20.

And there are good reasons behind it. Western transport aircraft are simply much more capable & reliable.

And spares are not hard to find since these platforms shares many components with civilian aircraft. Sanctions are not a problem if you want to keep your C130 flying.


But of course all this is just rumors. BAF don't require that much lifting capacity & the current demand can be meet with Super Hercules.

Yup. RAF will retiere some.
