new article on malaysian defence..below are few important points from the article

-At the same time, the staff officer also revealed the service procurement plans, three MRSS, four light frigates, six ASW helicopters, a single hydro-graphic ship and six gun-armed FACs.
-for the procurement plans, I believed the ASW helicopters and hydrographic ship are a shoe-in for RMK11 while the light frigates looked unreachable unless they turned it into another order for the LCS.
-What about the MRSS and FACs then? I believe it will be funded not due to RMN’s requirements but mainly for political reasons.

wonder how much would actually be funded under RMK 11..and what happen to the DSME corvettes?


Interestingly, mistral was the show model plus with recent mistral visit to here..

could it be combo of Dokdo class LPH and Gumdoksuri class patrol vessel?
both were build by the same Hanjin Heavy Industries, both price tag should be more cheaper than those european.
and some more the Gumdoksuri class patrol vessel more fit the bill of a FAC,right?
do u guys think the rumors 6 DSME missile corvettes might be replace by this 6 FAC or the plan has been delay?

offsets deals i think still ok, what i don't understand is those ToT and IP deals.
example like the NGPV and SGPV ToT and IP deals, i'm sceptical that they will be use in the TGPV.

maybe is the DCNS Gowind 1000?
little brother of our SGPV.

Too bad france can't sell it to the china.

Such pity a brand new ship gonna become artifical reef (a very expensive reef).
Too bad malaysia can't afford it, even france navy also don't want or no budget to buy it from dcns?
