Bangladesh Navy

[Ideas_R_Bulletproof]

If the govt. had some political backbone - they'd go ahead and start the frigate program right now, not in five more years. By my estimation and experience, there are at least five large govt. yards (two owned by the Navy itself including KSY) and seven or eight private yards easily capable of building F22/23P or Jiangwei II or 054 class designs (up to 2000 tonnes displacement). Weapons fitment experience needs to be part of ToT which we sorely need. For Karachi Shipyard - the F22P program was a large forward step. In Bangladesh that step needs to be taken now - instead of tippy-toeing around neighbor's feelings and appeasing neighbors with buying 45 year old training ships.

17 shipyards are currently capable of building classified ships... the largest ships had been 100m long... KSY is plagued by the draft of the Rupsha and the height of the Rupsha Bridge.... so, it needs its extended yard to go into operation first.... DEWN and Ctg Dockyard are the two other shipyards owned by govt agencies.... Ctg Dockyard got its first ever shipbuilding order in 2014....

the newer shipyards currently under construction have much bigger capacity.... some are with capacity to build ships of up to 50,000DWT capacity (not 50,000ton light)....
