Well, not us. Also not sure that is for export.

Man, tanks are improtant but not nearly as much as AD and long range missiles, specially for us. Yet army is focused on close/direct combat element and still missing the bigger picture.

It's not in Chinese army's camo. That's why the suspicion. Well, it’s not like BD has balls/will to purchase two types at once.

We always blame the military but the govt and the foreign powers are the problems. We saw what army chief and former air chiefs said. The military always wanted the weapons they needed.

Army chief directly said that no govt ever worked for national security. We saw what Russia, China, India did and now what USA is crazy about. How Hasina tactfully avoided giving military the most important, major items and offensive weapons.

See any progress on Type-A mlrs, MR-SAM project? Cause Hasina was a puppet. It would be really interesting 5 years if BNP comes to power, want to see what they do for military this time.

Last time they didn't do so well. But taking care of BAL-Indian elements might take their time. BNP, Jamat fanboys in another forum were quite vocal about Hasina’s work. I'd love to see their reaction if BNP fails this time. Though they are already doing some "amazing jobs". If you know what I mean.

I have a bad feeling that they will also 'focus' on 'economy' and 'development' just like Hassina did.

I only see NCP and some unknown guys talk about security and military. Nobody is talking against the deal with USA.

@Isa Khan BD army cammo on VT-5 in China. Could be that a second regiment was purchased.

It is indeed the second shipment of VT-5s for 26 Horse Regt, they were supposed to go for amphibious tanks but no tank could satisfy ARTDOCs requirements. (Confirmed by a squadron commander serving with 26Hrs)

Interesting but we'll have to wait and see.
