Spain Crash: Hishamuddin Confirms Suspension Of Military Airbus
KUALA LUMPUR, May 11 (Bernama) - Defence Minister Datuk Seri Hishamuddin Tun Hussein, Monday confirmed that Malaysia has temporarily halted the operations of its military Airbus A400M fleet following a crash involving the transport carrier during a test flight in Seville, Spain last Saturday. "Yes, (we) grounded ours till we know more," Hishammuddin said in his Twitter reply to a BERNAMA reporter, in Kuala Lumpur. According to the Reuters news agency, an A400M military transport plane crashed outside Seville during the weekend, killing four members of the test crew and seriously injuring two others. The incident prompted Malaysia, Germany, Britain and Turkey to ground their fleets of the new troop and cargo carrier. Based on local media reports, Malaysia has ordered four A400Ms, and has received delivery of the first aircraft on March 9, after they were purchased in 2005. Malaysia is expected to receive two more of the aircraft by the end of this year and the last one next year. --BERNAMA http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v8/ge/newsg....php?id=1133417 |

One of the best option due to the terrain and long shoreline.
QUOTE(yinchet @ May 15 2015, 12:20 PM) Hmm, 1400km of shorelines. I dun think we have enough heli to use for qrf to cover the whole shorelines. Really need 3-6 heli for every 150km-200km.  |

It will be too late when we see China oil rigs near the Sabah and Sarawak coasts in the near future.

If China deploys oil rigs near the Sabah and Sarawak coasts, means that it is too late for MAF.

If dealing with China, they only respect force, no point talking.
