sorry you don't know what i said . pakistan has nothing to do with bd f-7 deal .

but article say brand new sir jee gap can be filled with used too why new?

Boss stop gap means that untill the more modern aircrafts make their way into BAF, these F-7s will be used to serve the purpose.

Well, imran shaheb.... BD is evaluating SU30 F16 GRIPEN..... F7 was needed on emergency basis for new air base in coxbazar..... We are going for f7 is an old news..... Anyway as china stopped manufacturing it we thought jf-17 is the alternative. Now it seems like china designed new variants BGI after bangladesh's request.... BAF went for f-7 because it is saving money for next marketing.

i think 200 pakistani f-7s are ready to go out of service bd should take them as F-6

[Karachihunk]

Bangladesh has gone crazy, when the whole world is eyeing towards fifth generation aircraft they are going for F7 dont know if they are so dumb or Chinese are too smart.

I know...but their current role may be MR (as they are said to modified with GPS for precision delivery) but may be allocated to airdefence squadrons when advanced MR platforms make their way in BAF

As they want J-7, you should charge min atleast. Yesterday they are talking about SU-30,my god they didn't talked to acquire rafale........today BD decision

They are decently modified, my guess is that if PGM capability is added, so would have been the BVR......should i have to post the picture of J-7E prototype undergoing testing with JFT, J-10 and J-20?
