This doesn't make any sense at all. Why do we need Super Mushshak when we have Grob G-120TP? Also BAF can maintain it's own fleet locally and a UK company already carried out integration work of air defense.

I have a question, though: wouldn’t buying more J-10Cs be a better choice? I mean, for the JF-17, wouldn’t we have to train personnel for an entirely different ecosystem? And if Bangladesh buys three different types of jets, wouldn’t integrating them together be difficult?

The Bangladesh Centre for Air and Space Power Studies (BCASPS) was formally inaugurated yesterday (18 January).

Chief of Air Staff of the Bangladesh Air Force, Air Chief Marshal Hasan Mahmud Khan attended the ceremony as the chief guest and officially inaugurated both the centre and its website, reads a press release of the Air Force.

Expressing confidence and optimism about the launch of BCASPS as an independent think tank dedicated to research on air and space power, the Air Chief said that effective control and protection of airspace form a fundamental pillar of national sovereignty and stability. He emphasised that in the evolving strategic environment, developing a comprehensive and integrated understanding of both air and space domains is essential to safeguarding Bangladesh's sovereignty, national security, and long-term development interests.

During the programme, the vision of BCASPS was outlined as becoming a centre of excellence that promotes national awareness on air and space power and provides policy-oriented advice in support of Bangladesh's national interests and the capability development of the Bangladesh Air Force.

The establishment of BCASPS was described as a timely and forward-looking initiative of significant importance to national security, the Bangladesh Armed Forces – particularly the Bangladesh Air Force – and a major milestone in strengthening Bangladesh's strategic and intellectual engagement in air and space power.
