please revive A -10 Warthog!

macam very low firepower only...
we need more powerfull and hightech gun, and SPH, MRL .... 
155mm look too old.。。。

if our Arty Regiments all use G5, that would be so nice...lots of firepower there..

or maybe we could get the SPH version, the G6

Wonder how much of these rockets $12 Million USD can buy? These things are relatively cheap, weapons-wise.
Although part of the deal is for Malaysia license-producing the rockets.

Maybe for basic small truck-mounted MLRS or small multiple rocket battery?

Sorta like the Grad rocket launchers. Cheap and easier to deploy. Also saturation fire, baby!

Don't think that would be such a good idea. These things can potentially swallow a lot of money now and in the future from the maintenance & operating costs. Finally, in the end become white elephant like Thai Aircraft Carrier.

I don't think Malaysian Navy right now can afford to deploy warships larger than Frigates-sized ships.

You seriously think Malaysia can afford to buy and maintain a Mistral LHD?

Coz my prediction is we simply can't, the cost of purchasing and maintaining the ship and its airborne/amphibious units is simply too much for our economy and military budget. So probably it will spend most, if not all its service time tied up in dock. Even the two bare Russian Mistrals tied up doing nothing in St Nazaire is costing the French government  €5 Million per month to maintain the ships so they remain serviceable in case anyone wants to buy them later.

Same as Thai aircraft carrier, which has also spent most of its time tied up at dock because the Thai Navy can't afford to have it operational at sea. I call this a white elephant.

So how is the purchase of a Mistral LHD not a potential white elephant to Malaysia?

but mindef already give RMAF Nuri to them, so i for see with 5 year army will not getting any new transport heli any more, just attack helicopter is possible.
feel sad here....

what about the ASW helo for TLDM?

Nice fact: Vietnam People's Armed Forces currently has 24 Scud launchers with about 100 missiles, almost all of it is aimed at the PRC . And they're are capable of producing the Scud-B missiles by themselves.

That's a 100 more missiles Malaysia doesn't have haha

Scud is normally only fitted with a 2,000 pound conventional warhead, which makes it nearly useless with that kind of CEP.

US Navy EA-18G 'Growler' shows off the silhouette of an F-22 on its 'kill score'



Even the Raptor is not invincible.

well if prefer mobility, lot much better this design, the price not cheap too. i remember news said mobile seabase need 2xx billion to built.
i think much easy just get Makassar-class LPD as seabase, cheap, easy operation and better design us by navy compare to  "offshore" design.

Venom SuperCobra/ Viper good idea for heli ops for Malaysia like in Sabah?

I am told they share some common parts bringing cost down?

  hope they dont go backwards to conventional design like msia
