Finally it's clear what will be built here. Scratched my head for years about it and thought the 2nd dock will be built here.

Until Mongla docking facility starts operation CDDL's new dry dock won't see any progress. This could also mean that BN won't buy any floating dry dock.

Bringing these concepts back cause BD-China relation is improving and I don’t like the existing Type-54A design. When I wasn’t in any forum and there was talk about new frigate, these two concepts were parts of most discussions in FB based group. $350-$400 million per ship with UVLS, 70km LY-80, 8/16 AShM, 15-24 cells FL-3000N & torpedoes could be a good cost effective option. But we should select an AShM with extended range up to 300km.

At the 2016 International Defence Exhibition and Seminar (IDEAS) in Karachi, CSOC had displayed a frigate model of a new platform. The frigate was fitted with a full sensor suite akin to the 4,000-ton design (i.e. with a passive OTH radar paired to an FCR). Like the 4,000-ton frigate, this unknown design also had a 32-cell VLS system.


MBDA UK has presented its portfolio of products to a high powered Bangladesh government delegation for inclusion in to the Bangladesh Navy and other armed services.

The European defence systems giant gave a briefing on the Sea Ceptor variant of the CAMM (Common Anti-Air Modular Missile) series is a family of surface-to-air missiles.

Bangladesh’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom H.E. Saida Muna Tasneem and the Defence Attache of Bangladesh to the United Kingdom Brigadier General Md Mahbubur Rashid, SPP, ndu, psc visited MBDA Systems premises on 16 September to develop a cooperation stream.

Although primarily an air-defence weapon, the CAMM family can also engage small surface targets. CAMM-ER shares CAMM’s warhead, active radar seeker and datalink, potentially giving the longer-ranged missile a useful secondary capability against fast attack craft and other small vessels. MBDA does not actively market it as a dedicated anti-ship missile, as the fragmentation warhead, reportedly around 10kg, would have limited value against vessels larger than a fast attack craft.
