Military Industry Of Bangladesh: Army Going To Manufacture/Assemble Armored Personnel Carrier In Home


Bangladesh Army is going to manufacture Armored Personnel Carrier in Bangladesh very soon

Bangladesh Army (BA) is going to Manufacture Armored Personnel Carrier (APC) in Home.

Bangladesh setting up an armored personnel carrier (APC) manufacturing plant inside the Bangladesh Machine Tools Factory (BMTF) premises in Gazipur district near Dhaka. Not only army but also other armed forces, Bangladesh Police, Border Huard Bangladesh, and few other paramilitary needs such armored cars to operate swiftly.

Recently Armed Forces of Bangladesh taking initiatives to manufacture most of the country’s needed military equipment and gears in home. APC factory is one of those efforts. BMTF has sufficient resources and skilled manpower to execute such big military vehicle manufacturing process. Previously Bangladesh upgraded their Type-59 tanks with some foreign technical help. Bangladesh Army also producing various types of military trucks and cars.

In another effort, BD Army setting up an overhauling plant for russian built “BTR” series armored personnel carriers. Currently BA has 600+ BTR APCs. Bd Army operating a large number various APCs, most them are Russian made BTR-80 & BTR-82s. some are Egyptian, American, Chinese, Turkish and other Eastern European origins.

In the near future Bangladesh eyes for manufacturing own aircraft, APC, large warships, MANPADS missiles, multiple launch rocket systems, soldiers gears, fighter jet overhauling plant and some other. Building efficient military industries shall save large amount of resources and help in country’s economy a lot. That’s why military-civil leadership of Bangladesh taking effective steps and measures to flourish this sector. After fulfilling country’s needs these hardware can be exported which will earn some extra bucks for the economy. Large number of civilian employments would help socio-economic development. And, such, Bangladesh Army’s effort of manufacture Armored Personnel Carriers (APC) in home benefits our birth land in all the way.

BA has already more than 600 units of APC. Many more are being used for peacekeeping mission. I wonder why BD will start assembling so many APCs in home. Is it possible that BA want to use these APCs to swim over Naaf Dariya to penetrate Arakan? APCs may be good for waging war in the jungle of Arakan.
@UKBengali, any idea?

BD Army has also floated a tender for 3 regiments(132) of light tanks. This tank is more suitable for BD terrain than the heavier tanks and could also be used in some capacity in Arakan I would presume.
I do not think that BD has any plans to attack Arakan as it still is trying to force Myanmar to take them back with guarantees of safety - something that may be impossible given what has happened to Rohingyas for decades.
Give it till around 2020 when those Sukhois have arrived, Mig-29s upgraded, medium range air defence systems have been put in place, at least 2 more Type-056 corvette are in service along with the other ongoing procurements and then BD could in theory launch a short and sharp war to capture northern Arakan.
Militarily by 2020 BD will gain total dominance over Myanmar, and then the option opens for military force to solve this problem once and for all with little cost for BD.

BD do not stop the procurement of only get 8+4 MRCA, after signing this deal if it is Su30 then raise again 16 aircraft. BD should keep her mind India also.BD need this type of birds within 2022 at least 4 sqd.

Of course.

8+4 is only the first order. Bear in mind that with weapons and training this will come to around 1 billion US dollars and so after even a modest order like this, BAF will need to wait some time before more aircraft are procured.

May your dreams come true.

These are not dreams dude but reality.
Myanmar spends 2 billion US dollar a year on defence while BD spends 3.2 billion US dollars.
BD also does not have to spend a lot of money fighting It's own people that want to break away.
