The US is working with Bangladesh's army and navy to develop an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) capability for Bangladesh, said the US Embassy in Dhaka in a statement yesterday.
"A Bangladesh regiment comprised of army and navy personnel will operate the new RQ-21 Blackjack system. This joint effort will enable Bangladesh to monitor its maritime domain, secure its borders, and conduct peacekeeping missions," it said.
The statement added that the US and Bangladesh will be conducting three joint military exercises this summer to continue their longstanding partnership and the delivery of a new capability that will reinforce common security interests.
The efforts by the Armed Forces of Bangladesh and the US military will help make the two countries stronger, and the region safer, it added.
For the fourth year in a row, the Bangladesh Army and US Army Pacific will conduct "Exercise Tiger Lightning".
"Through realistic training, our soldiers will develop readiness for counterterrorism, peacekeeping, jungle operations, medical evacuations, and countering improvised explosive devices (IEDs)," it said.
They will also conduct "Exercise Tiger Shark 2025", a joint training exercise where two countries' Special Forces practice combat tasks.
The exercise, ongoing since 2009, will feature patrol boat handling and small arms marksmanship that will strengthen Bangladesh's Special Warfare Diving and Salvage and the Para Commando Brigade ability to respond to crises, the statement added.
"One of the highlights of this combined exercise is the use of US equipment by both countries," it said.
"Exercise Pacific Angel", the fourth iteration with Bangladesh, will highlight one of the hallmarks of the US-Bangladesh defence relationship, the C-130 fleets, which are critical in disaster response airdrops and air mobility operations, the US Embassy said.
The exercise also focuses on Search and Rescue (SAR) and aeromedical operations, further developing Bangladesh's ability to respond to humanitarian disasters, it added.

Bangladesh and the United States have concluded Tiger Shark, a bilateral military exercise designed to enhance regional security cooperation, improve interoperability and build mutual capacity between the armed forces of both nations.
“This joint military exercise reaffirms our commitment to a safer, stronger and more prosperous Indo-Pacific. It also symbolises the strong US-Bangladesh partnership,” said US Chargé d’ Affaires Ambassador Tracey Jacobson marking the conclusion of the joint military exercise.
Tiger Shark reflects the enduring commitment of the United States and Bangladesh to promote peace, stability, and security in the Indo-Pacific region, said the US Embassy in Dhaka in a media release on Saturday.
The exercise brings together personnel from the United States Indo-Pacific Command and the Bangladesh Armed Forces, engaging in a range of integrated training activities including medical training, patrolling, marksmanship, swimming and diving, and close quarters combat.
In addition to tactical training, Tiger Shark features subject matter expert exchanges, joint planning sessions and simulation exercises.
These engagements help facilitate a coordinated approach to future regional challenges in the Indo-Pacific.
US Indo-Pacific Command is America’s oldest and largest combatant command, overseeing US military activities across the Asia-Pacific region and working with partners to promote regional peace and stability.
