Pakistan Claims Bangladesh Shows Potential Interest in JF-17 Fighter Jets Amid Defense Talks

Pakistan's military announced that Bangladesh has expressed a "potential interest" in procuring JF-17 Thunder fighter jets. The statement followed a meeting between the air force chiefs of both nations in Islamabad, where discussions included strengthening operational cooperation, training, and potential aerospace advancements. Pakistan also offered fast-tracked delivery of Super Mushshak trainer aircraft. While Pakistan claims the JF-17 has proven its capabilities, Bangladesh has not officially confirmed the procurement plan. This development occurs amid warming relations between the two South Asian nations.
