What's new

Bangladesh Navy

James Bond ship :P

the ship was built and on "mysterious" grounds, got burnt before commissioning!

Yes sure, but never say never
the predispositions have remained, the raised superstructure where they installed the KBA 25/80 is bolted directly above the base on which previously supported the 76/62 Compact

and also the base where the anti-aircraft missile system was installed remained in its place

and space abounds for anti-ship missiles canister , both center-ship and aft-stern

in addition these units will have technical support for the next 20 annj, so it might be an opportunity, possibly for two Minerva class, you could reuse weaponry of the 2 class Castle (ex OPV) C704 and tower 76mm, plus the systems dedicated to them

and the two Castle classes could return to their original mission, rearmed with a different typology of systems

Nice suggestions, brother....

the Castles are likely to remain where they are.... it was little bit of demo (play) regarding the definition of ships.... corvettes, frigates and OPVs are actually same ships with different names.... the white hulls will do what they are supposed to do.... for now.... so, won't expect missiles on them.... at least... for now.... :)

anyway, we would surely like to see more such ships on water.... perhaps some license production with more stealthy upgrades in design?

and you have any suggestions regarding frigates?

I do not know what to propose, it is necessary to know how badget is available, look for new or good used ships, which size and displacement must have, on 2500/3000 tons as a few years ago or rubbed by over 4000 tons that in the past were called destroyers , on this hull what weapons and systems you want to install, what type of propulsion.
As you can see, it is very difficult to answer your question, however, once you have chosen your ship type, if it's all right, this unit will be in service at least five years later, so if Bangladesh just starts the selection, we'll see the first unit in service in 2027 !! , so having at least a couple of former Corvette Minerva armed as I guess would be a good alternative to what might be coming in the future

I agree with your points now that you talk about the ready weapon mounts. Weapons used in another platform like Castle class is always a great possibility for transfer to the Minerva class, provided static and dynamic weight balancing is properly considered during such transfer.

The ex-Minerva class (present Leader class) will have a long and illustrious career in our armed services, be it Navy or Coast Guard. We understand that the emotional connection of the Navie Armatori to these vessels is strong, and we reciprocate these feelings as well. We will take care of them well. :-)

okay let me clear things out a little bit for you.....

Bangladesh is in the process of building up a force level, for which, off-the-shelf units is necessary..... we can modernize them later with new-builds.... some new-builds are joining up, as my friends have described above.... Type 056 and Durjoy-class..... but lets be straight about one thing - its gonna take at least 20-30 years if you want to build up a capable force only with new-builds.... so, we need some off-the-shelf frigates, along with corvettes....

LIG Nex1 has unveiled the new short-range guided missile system at the ADEX 2017, Seoul International Aerospace and Defense Exhibition.

The Bigung is a new South Korea’s short-range guided missile system based on a high-mobility cross-country chassis. The 70-millimeter guided missile Bigung have weighs 15 kilograms and is 1.9 meters long.

The Bigung is essentially a mobile coastal defense system. The main task of the Bigung missile complex is the fight against various combat and landing craft and landing vehicles of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (abbreviated DPRK), and first of all with airborne landing boats being built in the DPRK in series.

Bigung, which means flying arrow, can be mounted on a truck, it is very mobile and much more versatile and potent compared to coastal artillery used by troops at present. If fully loaded, a truck-mounted launcher can fire up to 40 missiles at once, the official explained.

Each Bigung system is capable of engaging multiple LCACs, with the missiles able to independently track and strike different targets, he said.

The military began the Bigung development project in 2010 when tensions on the Korean Peninsula escalated following the North’s deadly shelling of Yeongpyeong Island and torpedo attack on the South’s Cheonan corvette, which claimed the lives of 46 sailors on board.

wow!a seven million dollar safety barrier for 190 million dollar ships!! Sounds like good invtestment!! :-):-)

@Bilal9 @BDforever

Ideally they should have their own underground fortified bunker but this is a good in-between safety measure. They should (and probably have) restricted even naval personnel from getting near these things without justification.

These are German U Boat Pens in occupied France.

Funny thing is that they still stand to this day... even after Churchill dropped the hammer on them... amazing piece of engineering.

yea.... the Allies had a hard time busting those u-boat pens.... way too hard for bombs of that time.... they required some unbelievable size bombs to even scratch those buildings!!!

They did built one nicknamed the hammer I believe.... it penned the building but didn’t collapse the other secondary roof or any other structure. The penned concrete still lies in its original position to this day.

Indian SUBMARINEs & Burmese WARSHIPS Be Aware, Bangladesh Navy Buying C295 AMPA (With Marte-MK2N Missiles)

Bangladesh Navy to buy Airbus Defense CASA C295 Armed MPA aircraft for anti-submarine warfare missions

Advertisements
Reportedly Bangladesh Navy (BN) going to buy Airbus C295 Armed Maritime Patrol Aircraft for Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) and Anti-Surface Warfare (ASuW) missions. Previously Bangladesh Army bought one C295W tactical transport version. Recently published news showed that BN has selected Leonardo SeaSpray AESA for its two upcoming Dornier Do-228NG MPAs.

C295 AMPA is a multirole ASW and maritime surveillance aircraft builds Airbus Defense & Space. Spanish CASA (now is a part of Airbus) manufactures it. This armed maritime aircraft has six hardpoints under its wing, which can carry anti-ship missiles and torpedoes. C295 can engage both surface warships and submarines. It has a pretty good range to monitor the seas. How many Bangladesh Navy would buy it’s not clear now.

Bangladesh Army and Bangladesh Navy both are working jointly to make sure the security of the country’s coastal areas from any aggressor’s misadventures. Especially from burma. Burma’s recent airspace violations were heinous act of aggression. Due to the lacking of the Bangladesh Air Force’s air power, Bangladesh Army restrained from teaching myanmar a very hard lesson that would burma’s next generation would remember with fear.

Due to burma’s recent show of aggressive postures, Bangladesh decided to buildup massive military power to thwart burmese bad dreams. This C295 AMPA has a very good reputation for its long term of service. It is a reliable platform. C295 can carry a variety of weapons includes MBDA Marte-MK2N anti-ship missiles, heavy torpedoes, mines. Any surface warship or submarine of enemy forces must be count thousand times to enter Bangladesh’s territorial water bodies.

Besides AMPA Bangladesh Navy buying two more advanced Chinese attack submarines. More small navy vessels are going to be inducted within next two years alongside large displacement surface warships. By these acquisitions, Bangladesh Navy would be South Asia’s second biggest naval force and one of the largest in Asia
