All branches of Bangladesh armed forces are very very secretive in their purchase of heavy weapons. So, we have to depend upon all those piecemesal reports in the foreign press to get information. It seems that all the branches are getting stronger year after year. The five new missile frigates are a necessity, but we also need destroyers and submarines. I think, one submarine diesel-electric, has already been ordered this fiscal.

BoB is holding a few hundred billions worth of resource. We should spend $10 billion now on arms so that the wealth is not stolen by our two greedy and poor neighbouring countries. I must give credit to this AL govt for making timely purchases.
