i dun think Tony Pua & nurul Izzah gives much damage to ATM procurement

they're very naive in terms of defence..& there's no such indicator that their query will gives negative impact on defence

we've seen a much worst corruption in other sector..NFC, Healthcare, Education, u name it..just look at PAT report..PR were very loud on this matter..but yet  do u see it gave any impact on Gomen? NO..business as usual..

so i dun see how defence's procurement delay were caused by these PR politician

thats why i think gomen shud just proceed with the business..why too much delay...??? do we have to wait until China presence in SEA give a catastrophe impact, then gomen wanna start panic buy this & that..??? do we need another Kiram invasion then wanna buy proper asset..??? i dun know why but i think there is something else that keep holding back the shopping, but i dun think its the opposition

there

thats the BIG question..i think with enough MPs on BN side currently, it can give a go for defence budget increment..for a time being, to hell with opposition MP..history has shown how each time opposition MPs object budget presented in parliment, they still didnt have the volume to make it a hold

defence budget shud increase

like i said,wait till rmk-11

we've just bought 6 new frigates and possible new patrol vessels for MMEA and priority now is to strengthen Esscom. there are currently many things that were being bought just to beef up Esscom. but they are mostly low-profile procurement...armored vehicles, patrol boats, radar installation...

but your typical forummers won't gonna notice such procurement...everyone wanted shiny,brand new figher aircraft or shiny, brand new MBT

a109 ady got the equipment, but dunno why they dun bring it to lahad datu

Are the attack helis coming any soon?
Is there any sign first announce later procurement method being used for the special needs of the ESSCOM and spratlys?

Apa big ticket?

having said all that, i do hope the army to get new 105mm howitzers though

the oto melara 105 really shows its age

hi guys

just wanna ask ur opinion about this news..i dun know why, but by reading this news, my sense saying that there will be an announcement on MMRCA program winner around 2015..is it still Ruskies? will we get another batch of MKMs?

owh...so that means MKMs 2nd batch on one tender & mmrca program for other tender..so by that we shud have another mkms + other mmrca plane, am i right? that will be a big sum of money but needed nonetheless
NASA eh?

so i guess SH will have its way here around after 2015

what RMAF can get with usd3bil?

hold it

so tis means rafale & typhoon not on the table anymore?

btw, kinda sceptical with 18 sh but lets wait till 2016

Even their Atlas rocket depend on the Russian engine. Apparently, Russian rocket engine technology is way ahead of the Americans.

just asking about the mkms, why so far i never seen our mkms equip with weapons?? i wonder why

18 sh + 4 aew =usd 2 Billion is abit too optimistic， SH block3 cost usd 80～90m some more price increase year by year. 4 AEW not cheap if want better performance.

Everyone got an itch with china now
Even japan just unveiled it's huge 5-year modernization plan termed "beat China by ourselves when the US abandons us” strategy

And as always our budget gets cut time and time again
Dey, when china comes knockin' those deficit can throw out the window for fark sake

Wait.. did I heard that right? moar subs? wooaaa~ 

Wettest dream ever....

In b4 proof me wrong, in my face
