considering the capability of BD dockyards to built Durjoy class after learning from China for almost five year since the design commence in 2009 and starting to built the pair in 2014, one just need to wonder on how long BD need to learn and try to built a decent corvette (a note even till now still not hear news when BD dockyards will actually built type 56 corvette in house). And now talking big about built a full fledged AAW Frigattes with all of their complexity, Its beyond me actually.

just a big LOL from me

Bangladawg forumer here full of delusional people
Well, as you already stated Bangladeshi Naval ship building capabilities is beyond your understanding. Let yourself keep that way, dont overuse your brain...

Yes alot of Bangladeshi forumers here is delusional. But you are straightly ignorant here...

And you should know;

On 30 June 2014 Bangladesh Navy signed a contract for next two Durjoy-class vessels with Khulna Shipyard. These ships will be made in Bangladesh under a ToT from China. Keel laying of the ships were done at September 6, 2015.

So, we signed for ToT then built and launched 2 LPC under 3 years.

Peace...

you are right about some members here going delusional.... but thats because they're unaware of the aim of their own words..... I would hope you also know yours....

creating artificial rivalry between Bangladesh and Indonesia serves another country's (big and in the Indian Ocean) purpose.... power isn't about what someone can make.... its about what someone is going to do with the things they can make.... materials are just means to an end, not the ends themselves.... boasting and blasting about military hardware is sign of intellectual bankruptcy....

geopolitics decides where ToT is going to go..... Bangladesh-Indonesia "artificial rivalry" is an inappropriate discussion when there is ToT between Bangladesh and Indonesia in the military field and more likely in the pipeline.... this is a real headache for the other country that I had mentioned above....

Glad to see the typical Indonesian maid behaviour coming from you.
Ironic isn't it,more Bangladeshi in SG universities like NUS and NTU compared to Indonesians.
And BD road cleaners in SG earn more and speak better english compared to you Indonesians.
And more Bengali kids studies in prestigious schools in SG compared to Indonesians.
So if we are dog,what are you guys?
RATS?:lol:

Bangladesh is considering to deploy BAL-E and Bastion-E coastal defense missile batteries.This for deterring naval blockades and hostile amphibious landing attempts.

For amphibious landing attempts a good number of naval artillery should also be installed... it's cost effective. It would also serve us best if we start our research on precision guided artillery ammunition

Like others in SA, BA also has taken over coastal defense (as well as ground airdef). Battles in a coastal defense wil involve all services but will be fought in a naval environment. The had of coastal defense should be a Navy officer and the organization should be dominated by the Navy.

China's New Frigate Design Looks Awfully Familiar

The three-hull design is more heavily armed than the American ship that inspired it.

The new frigate design being built for China's People's Liberation Army Navy bears a striking resemblance to the U.S. Navy's littoral combat ship. The design, as reported by Jane's Defense Weekly, uses a three-hull trimaran design and is more heavily armed than the Independence-class LCS ships.

A model of the ship design was being exhibited by the China Shipbuilding Trading Company at the IDEX 2017 arms show in Abu Dhabi. According to JDW, the ship displaces 2,450 tons and has a length of 465 feet. The ship is powered by diesel engines powering an electric propulsion system, giving it a cruising speed of 25 knots and the ability to sprint between 30 and 35 knots. It has a crew of more than 100.

The ship is impressively armed for its small size, packing a 76-millimeter gun in the bow, with a field of 16 or 32 vertical launch missile silos behind it. It also has two box launchers of four anti-ship missiles each, two 30-millimeter close-in weapon systems, and a pair of decoy rocket launchers for deflecting incoming missiles. The ship is built to support up to two helicopters with two hangars and a large helicopter landing pad.

The ship is very, very similar to the U.S. Navy's Independence-class Littoral Combat Ships. The Independence class is roughly the same weight but 50 feet shorter and with typically thirty percent fewer crew. It is also capable of much greater speeds, "sprinting" for short distances at up to 45 knots. The baseline version of the U.S. Navy's trimarans have only a single, smaller 57-millimeter gun and two 30-millimeter guns. A new, upgunned version of the ship adding Hellfire anti-surface missiles and a new over-the-horizon anti-ship missile may begin construction next year.

It's unclear why the Chinese Navy would want these ships. China already has a monohull frigate class, the Type 054A Jiangkai II. While the Type 054As are fifty percent larger in tonnage than the new trimaran design, the assembly line is already up and running having already produced 23 of the frigates. Trimaran hulls offer increased stability in high seas and wider hulls to accommodate side-by-side aircraft hangars. This suggests that aviation—both manned and unmanned—is going to be a bigger part of the Chinese Navy's surface fleet of the future.

This is not the first Chinese trimaran. The two relatively new Type 917 salvage and rescue ships serving with the North and East Sea Fleets also sport a three hull configuration.
