ASEAN Armies Rifle Meet (AARM) 2016 medals standing so far.

RIP.
At current rate I think RMAF will surpass TNI AU in total operational C-130 and variants (without buying a new one).

meanwhile, now is malaysian arm forces' compare to Singapore NS service equipment list?

for the very least, i do see that the current royal malaysian arm forces BDU changed to digital camo print already which is very good 

Both french marines are quite veteren in jungle warfare as they have training facilities in Guinea.
Their purpose to trained in Malaysia is to learned the local way of fighting.

PULADA is a very sophisticated training center and one of the best jungle training facilities in the world.
The trainer is very professional and they actually know what they are doing. The US army and marine that come to PULADA for advance training are not yellow. They have been trained before and they actually know what to do when in the jungle. Its not in the 70s where western forces are coming to Malaysia for training and they wanted to show off their skills and equipment to small country armed forces. They are fully understand what they are facing when they come to here.

ps: even some of the SG infantry trained in Johor/Pahang last year end up keep most of their equipment in the bag during long march and tracking

sandhurst yes, even to safti MI at singkieland also got... india also got.. west point? hmm...

The f35 decision to replace a10 were overrule last year.
The airforce will have to search for new aircraft to replace a10 till then a10 will be remain in service.

Guess made in where??

2 chopper can take 20 ppl

No, for much the same reasons SG doesn't.
Whats the purpose of Marine Corps? Why would we need it?

In my personal opinion, they are meant to be cannon folders... 

That's why last time Marines receive lousier equipment compared to the Army. 

For the US Marines yes... 

But if you look at other marine corps from other countries... 

pretty much

a force to spearhead an invasion/raid via sea/beach landings

except for the great US of A with their extravagant and large size of Marines, other countries only keep a few battalions of marines around under 10k soldiers..

the way i see it, US marines more of a regular GIs with amphibious capabilities, while other countries' marines are more of a semi-commandos soldiers....take UK's Royal Marines for example..

as for us, we don't have a Marine force, atleast not yet, but our 10th Para Brigade have been trained over and over again in amphibious warfare and always the one involve in CARAT exercise with US navy and marines

Defensive V offensive troops fell out of usage after ww2. The rapid and fluid nature of modern war means that defensive structures will be useless after 24 hours.Counter offensives are your defense

You can have fancy iron domes and kinetic missile intercepting projectiles when you already cover the basics.the way I see it if thousands of separatists poured in from Kalimantan or the Philippines, Malaysia does not have the means to deploy enough troops to borneo in the needed time frame

The essence of a marine corps is not the soldiers,it's the logistics.the ability to support and sustain a combined arms battle group for a prolonged period.

Logistics is why SAF are the region's best. Thousands of soldiers and tanks don't mean anything if you can't bring them to the fight,supply and feed them

looking at the current uncertainties, what do you reckon will be the best fit to replace RMAF's MiG29s?
