"The process will be carried out in the near future, but we also need to wait for Kuwait to receive the F/A-18 E/F Super Hornets they purchased from the US. That's a key factor.

wow, need to wait kuwait buy new plane first ?

This one not those planes that kept falling into ocean when fighting houthis until Trump beh tahan make peace deal with Houthis?

You really think service military jets is like you go mechanic bawah pokok?

Without official support, you think we can make our own parts, upgrade systems, etc.

US Navy already got rid of theirs. US Marines are the only users and end date already set. Almost every other user already in process of getting replacement planes.

Kuwait Hornets were built from 1991-1993 ie 32-34 years old.

How many more years RMAF want to use? Old planes will crash more often.

u bukan from this field mau ching chong apa lan

by the time we get it...entahlah

no choice bah, i see more like our air force buying this to bridge the gap until we can afford/arrive newer air figther?

Until mid-to-late 2030s, or until we get MRCA to replace all the Hornets and Sukhois.

Those who say why dont get F35 are probably the same bunch who will complain why spend so much on F35

FUU..mat salleh talking about this

By then 40-50 year old fighter. Good luck to the pilots. They'd need it.
