the SU 30MKM is a multirole isnt it? India is also using it. Why not just keep on buying this as opposed to an amalgam of jets?

Perhaps FA18 Super Hornet can come too. 2 types of multiroles from 2 premier defence contractors

What say you military (albeit, for some, armchair) sifus ?

then the options would be Russian, French, Euro, and maybe even Swedish...

that would mean we'd have makes from too many countries no? is that a good thing for maintaining them?

Just a few quick ones:

1. What's the difference between the Super Hornets and the new Eagles (F15E) in terms of combat roles pertaining to our airspace?

2. Would it be wise for us to keep everything American like our southern neighbors?

3. Following (1.), why not the F35? The SGs are excited about getting their F35

4. Again, why no Russia? The SU30MKM is our Air Force's backbone right? Wrong? Is it because those jerks are involved/caused the downning of MH17 and is not taking responsibility about it thus opening the door for future issues with upgrade/repoairs?

Wataniah is like reserves?

they meet what, each month or so?

1 whole month training camp? Wow

Anyway.. indulge me a bit. What are the perks and pay, if any? Hehehe

In wars what would happen to the bodies of these crewmembers? if they were alive, perhaps hostage exchange. but if dead? What happened to the bodies?

On hold, without any indication to resume can be considered as being on hold indefinitely, in other words, cancelled.

It is no different from a creative work being in a "development hell". It is not cancelled per se, but semantics. If it gets revived, it will probably come with a new set of feasibility studies, budgets, and what not - i.e. a new program

Gooding. I love them Hornets anyway

Well any deliveries of MRCAs would take longer than that anyway

For wargames, do the participants fire any shots? Blanks? or none at all? Life ammunition would be too dangerous

Cool thanks. I was looking into BFA on youtube and ended up with this. Not military per-se, but who's counting?

Civilians already need to go through security clearances when dealing with sensitive info.

Bros bros, what is Malaysia's security budget? how does it compare to our neighbors?

why are the Gurkhas so highly-regarded?

What is this? A destroyer? Looks like a ferry but my military hardware knowledge is super limited.

Ah, i see2. So much for not judging a book by its cover. For this case you can judge a ship based on its looks alone

Im more interested in that "tank" (APC?) that can go into water (salt or fresh? both?) without damaging itself. Is it floating OR threading on the seabed?? Surely there are dips on the seabed, what if the tank/apc dips and water starts pouring in?

IN a war without any mapping knowledge of new areas and its seabed, it seems like a dangerous maneuver.

So... is it floating or threading along the seabed? If it is threading, it reminds me of hippos threading in the water to attack his victims

Im jealous of all those darpa-sponsored engineers... they get to do what they love (developing) and paid handsomely.

What are the ADF doing in Butterworth? Training? Do they have active pilots there?Their aircrafts there too? What is it?

thank you mate. what aircrafts do they have here?
