Bangladesh's Made in China weaponry hits troubled waters - Intelligence sources​

The Chinese OEMs have only a limited amount of spares readily available and they take five to six months to manufacture and deliver the spares. As a result, the delivery of spares from the time of request tales a while, sometimes even over a year.​

Dhaka: China has supplied a lot of weaponry to the Bangladesh Navy , but now, intelligence reports suggest, Dhaka is having problems using them. The Chinese have given Bangladesh two submarines, and are building a submarine base for the Navy that is going to be called BNS Sheikh Hasina , but some of the equipment just does not seem to be usable by the Bangladesh Navy.

Chinese weaponry that has run into troubled waters includes-​

Issues with interfacing in the case of some systems as the Chinese have not shared the "protocol information" with the Bangladesh Navy.

There is a lack of documentation. The manuals and troubleshooting documents that have been provided by China to Bangladesh are clearly not enough. These are leading to problems in maintenance. This means that the OEMs or the Original Equipment Manufacturers have to arrive and then look at the problems. This is increasing the "non-operational period" of the warships concerned.

Then, there is a problem of spares. The Chinese OEMs have only a limited amount of spares readily available and they take five to six months to manufacture and deliver the spares. As a result, the delivery of spares from the time of request tales a while, sometimes even over a year.

Then, there is the high cost of spares, some of which are avoidable. This is because the request is routed through umbrella government organisations, which are trading agents-- and does not directly go to the OEMs. The umbrella organisations also add additional charges which increase the final cost of the spares.

I sugggest India should supply BD with its much better quality weapons then, not just crying of the faults of Chinese weapons to Pakistan and BD all the time.

as usual, a fake news source

It would be nice if the author could give a specific example of a weapon or weapon system where the Navy is facing problems.

Where is our @Bilal9 brother when Indians are criticizing our military goods supplied by China?

I never see such report in Bangladeshi media nor any other media which has no connection with India. It is one and only Indian media which are spreading such propaganda. Intention is very clear, create a wedge between Bangladesh and China and spread confusion and demoralization among the defence establishment of Bangladesh.

Only low IQ will trust such report. We have seen such tricks using many times and it's boring.

This looks like a classic case of homework not done properly. If I was the Project Manager, I would start asking tough questions like who signed off the transfer document without doing thorough check?

"Following his practice of performing “shastra pooja” (weapon worship) on every Dussehra, Singh performed the ritual this year too. The only novelty was that this year, the “shastra pooja” was performed with the Rafale jets in France."

Indians routinely come up with BS propaganda pieces on the quality of China weapons. I mean every two months.

It's like a bad habit, like consuming Cow Kola...
