wtf, if we wanna change any missile or bomb to be modified we bought from them we must have permission?
better malaysia make bomb and missile instead

can American bomb be modified to be use with Russian fighter without any US authorization
or I miss it in DSCA announcement that allowed Indo to do so?

Word from my pal in 18 sqn, for TUDM to dispose bolt also needed a writing acknowledgement from the US congress!

dumb bomb no problem. plus it's made ih indonesia. It's not they modified us made weapons to fit into su-30. they modify su-30 (with russian help) to accept US bomb. it was mostly to modify the aiming computer since russian and us bomb have different aerodynamics.

yep, that is US policy, to change a certain parts or even dispose a parts needed a written consent from the US congress, this is because US don't want their parts to lose to the wrong hand. US are so strict regarding their weapon even Israel do not have a certain weapon that their OWN in their homeland but under the kept of US goverment in the states. During the Hezbollah war 2006, some of the weapon were ship to Israel the war have being going for more then a week.

let me give you an example, one of friend told me that the stolen F5E engine in Sg Besi is waiting for a approval letter to be dispose/destroy/return back to US before it was stolen. The engine belong to an F5 that now served as a cosmetic value in the museum or in a junction somewhere. As the process is not that urgent it can take quite a while.

btw it takes a lot of money and time for RND a weapon, but it is good to start now, and our weapon can be use with US plane.

yup better have RnD unit, as far i know we got military plant at Pekan right?

Actually in Pekan is DRB factory, DRB produce military vehicle for ATM under the branch of DEFTECH,
we have actually a RnD div in Pekan right now in producing Malaysian JV IFV the AV8.

other then that Military R&D div is the STRIDE div collaboration with the University Pertahanan!

Too bad most of the money were not use effectively.

Too bad most of the money were not use effectively.

The Palestinian Islamic Jihad al-Quds Brigades in Gaza has acquired a number of FN FN2000 rifles complete with grenade launchers. Given the relatively few potential sources of these rifles, the most obvious explination is that former Libyan rebels are exporting the weapons they captured during the civil war.

TLDM sekali lagi membuktikan tahap kesiagaannya di tahap tertinggi dengan kejayaan penembakan peluru berpandu atau misil dari permukaan ke sasaran udara (surface to air) di Perairan Selat Melaka pada 23 Oktober 2012.  Penembakan kontraktual misil jenis Vertical Launch Seawolf  (VLSW) ini telah dilancarkan dari platform kapal Kelas Frigat, Kapal Diraja (KD) LEKIU ke sasaran udara TGX-2 yang ditunda oleh pesawat Learjet 35A. 




Penembakan misil Seawolf telah dilancarkan sewaktu siri latihan bulanan Armada TLDM iaitu siri Perang Pangkor 9/2012 yang dilaksanakan sekitar Perairan Selat Melaka Utara. Dalam penembakan pagi semalam, Seawolf  dari KD LEKIU  telah berjaya mengenai dan memusnahkan sasaran pada jarak, ketinggian dan kelajuan sepertimana yang telah diprogramkan. Seawolf mempunyai panjang 2.995 meter dengan berat 136.5 kilogram boleh meluncur pada kelajuan sehingga 333 meter sesaat serta boleh beroperasi dalam apa juga keadaan cuaca. Ia berupaya memusnahkan sasaran udara seperti jet pejuang dan peluru berpandu.



ejayaan penembakan ini nyata telah sekali lagi membuktikan keupayaan aset dan sistem persenjataan TLDM berada ditahap yang amat meyakinkan. Ia juga sekaligus menzahirkan kepada dunia bahawa keupayaan perang TLDM dan kompetensi perancang latihan, pengendali, pengurusan, penyelenggaraan dan pengoperasian aset Armada TLDM, berada ditahap kesiagaan yang tinggi dan terlatih. Untuk rekod, pada tahun ini, TLDM pada 20 September 2012, telah berjaya melancarkan misil jenis Exocet MM40 dari KD LEKIU dan misil jenis Sea Skua dari helikopter TLDM jenis Super Lynx dalam Penembakan Bersepadu Angkatan Tentera Malaysia (ATM) bersama TUDM dan TDM dalam Eksesais ANGSA 7/2012.

Dalam menentukan kejayaan operasi penembakan kali ini, pelbagai aset dan unit TLDM telah terlibat dengan pelbagai tugas yang telah ditetapkan.  Antara tugas yang dilaksanakan ialah perancangan latihan, tinjauan dan pembersihan kawasan, penyediaan misil dan rakaman serta analisis. Aset dan unit TLDM yang terlibat antaranya ialah Markas Armada, Depot Peluru dan Letupan, KD LAKSAMANA MUHAMMAD AMIN, KD SELANGOR, Combat Boat (CB) 90, pesawat Super Lynx, pesawat Fennec dan Tim Rakaman dan Analisis dari Weapon Trial and Assesment Team (WTAT) dari Markas Sistem Armada serta Institut Penyelidikan dan Pembangunan Pertahanan (STRIDE), Kementerian Pertahanan. Kejayaan penembakan misil Seawolf dari KD LEKIU sekali lagi telah melakarkan nama ATM dan TLDM khasnya sebagai pasukan Angkatan Tentera yang wajar digeruni di rantau ini.

sosej

why TLDM warship didn't use close-in weapon system (CIWS) for point defence???
is it becoz the cost is too high or got other reasons?
just curious.....

DS30M is fitted in the lekui class for CIWS role.

i mean those 6 barrels Phalanx CIWS or 7 barrels Goalkeeper CIWS.
more barrels , more higher chance to hit the target???
