বাংলাদেশ নৌবাহিনী বর্তমানে ২ টি এরকম বিমান ব্যবহার করে।

BD-08 to be replaced very shortly

বাংলাদেশ অর্ডিন্যান্স ফেক্টরী (BOF) এ নির্মিত BD-08 has shown a few flaws এসাল্ট রাইফেলে বিভিন্ন সমস্যা রয়েছে। যার মধ্যে উল্লেখযোগ্য কিছু সমস্যা হলো পুরাতন সোভিয়েত আমলের use of 7.62 X 39mm বুলেট ব্যবহার,বাজে একুরেসি, অত্যন্ত ঝাঁকুনি, নোনা আবহাওয়ায় বাজে পারফর্মেন্স, যুগোপযোগী আয়রন সাইট না থাকা,খুব তাড়াতাড়ি গরম হয়ে যাওয়া,রেইল সিস্টেম না থাকায় বিভিন্ন এক্সেসরিজ লাগানো যায় না ইত্যাদি.....

তবে আশার কথা হলো BOF খুব শীঘ্রই BD-08 এর একটি New Version of completely different BD-08 নতুন ভার্সন বের করতে যাচ্ছে যা পুরোনো ভার্সন থেকে সম্পুর্ন আলাদা হতে যাচ্ছে।

এর ডিজাইনও সম্ভবত পরিবর্তন করা হচ্ছে।Design to be also changed সব জানা না গেলেও হালকা পাতলা যেসব জিনিস শোনা গেছে তা হলো এই ভার্সনে পুরাতন 7.62X39mm এর বদলে this new series will use 7.62 X 51mm NATO কার্টিজ ব্যবহার করা হবে ফলে এর রেঞ্জ বৃদ্ধি পেয়ে ৬০০-৭০০ মিটার হবে,থাকবে রেইল সিস্টেম, যুগোপযোগী আয়রন সাইট, ঝাঁকুনি কমানোর জন্য মাজল ব্রেকার।আর এর ওজনও সম্ভবত বর্তমান ভার্সন থেকে কম হবে।

এটি দিয়ে পুরাতন BD-08 রিপ্লেস করা হবে। BD-08 will be replaced very shortly.

আশা করা যায় খুব শীঘ্রই জনসম্মুখে আসবে এই ভার্সন

What is forces goal 2030?

Forces Goal 2030

Forces Goal 2030 is a long-term modernisation program for Bangladesh Armed Forces. Its main purpose is expanding the force size, acquiring modern war-machines and providing next level training. The goal also emphasises developing indigenous defence industries.

Plans and developments
Forces Goal 2030 is the first planned attempt to modernise the Bangladesh Armed Forces. Modernization was neglected in Bangladesh and no extensive measures were taken previously. Forces Goal 2030 emphasises quality equipment with better training and increasing mobility.

Army
The plan is to make the Bangladesh Army a well-trained, well-armed force that can defend from conventional and unconventional threats. The Bangladesh Army planned to conduct its activities under three independent corps – Central, Eastern and Western.[1] The number of infantry divisions was to be increased to ten. Currently there are nine infantry divisions including two newly formed ones, the 17th infantry division at Sylhet[2] and 10th infantry division at Ramu in Cox's Bazar.[3] Another infantry division is under formation at the Lebukhali of Patuakhali District, to be completed in 2016. A riverine brigade is being formed at Mithamain of Kishoreganj District. A full-fledged cantonment is being established at Ruma of Bandarban District.[4]

The mobility of the force is being improved as per the plan. Many new APCs were procured, such as BTR-80, Otokar Cobra and BOV M11. A contract was signed for 330 BTR-80 APC and 10 Armoured recovery vehicles via a $1 billion deal with Russia, whose delivery started from the end of 2016.[5]

The firepower of artillery units was increased by procuring Nora B-52 K2 self-propelled artillery systems. One regiment of WS-22 Guided Multiple Rocket Launcher System was procured in 2015.

The Bangladesh Army procured 44 MBT-2000 tanksfrom China in 2011. Upgradation of Type-59 to Type 59BD is completed.[6] [7] Two new tank regiments are being raised.[8] [9]

New radio equipment and other devices were procured to modernise the signal corps. SLC-2 weapon locating radar was added.

An independent air defence brigade was formed at Dhaka Cantonment. Two regiments of FM 90 surface to air missile were added in 2016 to enhance air defence capabilities.[6]

Metis-M missile systems and PF-98 rocket systems were procured for anti-tank roles.

For effectively facing unconventional threats, government is actively considering the formation of Special forces at brigade level. Special counter-terrorism unit is formed under 1st Para-Commando Battalion.

Modernizing the army aviation wing is in .........

Any info on the additional Yak-130 ordered? Has this been confirmed?

To keep track of the progress, we need some sticky threads as the general threads are repeatedly getting hijacked by trolls and not conducive to have a good discussion.

I guess three additional sticky threads are needed by merging some general threads,
