Bangladesh's navy just launched a homegrown warship built to haul serious hardware. The new landing craft can transport six tanks or a dozen armored personnel carriers for coastal operations. Constructed at the state-run Khulna Shipyard with Canadian design input, the vessel also supports disaster relief and rescue missions. It even received an award for environmentally friendly manufacturing practices.
During the ceremony, Naval Chief Admiral M Nazmul Hassan stated armed forces members would ensure electoral integrity. He added that joint forces would work to recover illegal weapons across the country. The shipyard itself has produced hundreds of vessels and generates substantial annual revenue from steelwork. Senior military and civilian officials attended the launching event for the amphibious craft.
