Argentina current best choice will be Mirage F1 from France or opt for Pakistan / China build JF-17. Korean made K-50 just too expensive and face protest from the British

probably cause our Hercules dont fall out of the sky as often

So the LMS is ~70m ship with rm200mil/usd50mil price cap include weapons etc
ASM system maybe can scrap older Exocet/Otomat launcher from inventory

army want such a big heli like chinook?

Any particular reason why RMAF didn't consider Mi-35 in the first place?

Bomba operates 4 Mi-17 and they didn't seem to have problem with their fleet.

Do our Navy currently train against a scenario where Layang Layang is attacked by China's navy....

sorry for being out of topic..but is there any plan that you are aware of to get additional ec725 after the nuri incident? 

We already did brought decent amount of it Shikan and Ingwe.
Not to mention crazy amount rpg7.
In 2012 we spend rm250mil on m72 iinm ruag get the contract.
Hmm did I miss anything else

I do hope we get brimstone for our aircraft.

Thanks. Geez I didn't know she looked this bad.
Come now, Tun Sharifah Rodziah looks nowhere near as bad as all that. Kind of futuristic even, reminds me of certain computer games and scifi movies

Most countries don't have police paramilitary units, so some people are not used to the concept of a heavily armed police trooper. In most people's mind a policeman is the guy with the funny hat and shiny badge standing at the corner looking out for crime.

Of course, Malaysia, with its long history of internal insurgencies, fully embrace this concept. That's why Malaysian people are used to the idea of the PDRM's PPH/VAT69/PGA paramilitary units and usually think of them as kind of the 'secondary army' of Malaysia. In other countries, the idea of a country having a 20,000-strong armed force besides the military would be considered alien and scary.

If the Admiral Kuznetsov is so bad, why even use it? Why not just build another carrier. The Russkies should have the resources to do it right?

The A.Kuznetsov is more detrimental than helpful really at this stage, aside from testing fighters.

not MRSS hehe

ANKARA—Turkey’s military and procurement officials are mulling the options of upgrading hundreds of German-made Leopard 2 and U.S.-made M60 main battle tanks.

One senior procurement official familiar with the program said that about 100 Leopard 2s and 300 M60s would go through an upgrade program.  Industry sources say such upgrades would cost Ankara anywhere between $2 million to $3 million per tank. A bunch of 300 to 400 tank upgrades will have a total cost of more than $1 billion.

They say Turkey’s defense procurement agency, the Undersecretariat for Defense Industries (SSM in its Turkish acronym) would most likely award the Leopard 2 upgrade contract to the German Rheinmetall’s three-partner, Turkey-based venture, RBSS. Rheinmetall’s partners are the Turkish armored vehicles manufacturer BMC and the Malaysia-based Etika Strategi.

The planned M60 upgrades may mark the first Turkish-Israeli defense deal after the two former allies froze their diplomatic ties in 2010 but agreed on détente recently. Ankara and Jerusalem are expected to appoint ambassadors to each other within days after they downgraded diplomatic representation to the level of charge d’affaires in 2010.

In the 1990s a bunch of Turkish M60s went through a successful upgrade by Israeli Military Industries (IMI).

Meanwhile, the Turkish government is expected to announce a bidding for the serial production of hundreds of Altays, Turkey’s first indigenous, new generation main battle tank. The bidding is expected to open in the next few months.
