Citation :

La Malaisie a passé commande, auprès d'Eurocopter, de 12 hélicoptères EC725 destinés aux missions de sauvetage (Search and Rescue - SAR). De la classe 11 tonnes, ces machines, pouvant intervenir de jour comme de nuit, y compris dans des conditions météo très difficiles, remplaceront les actuel S-61 (Sikorsky) mis en oeuvre par l'armée de l'air malaisienne.
En parallèle de cette commande, Eurocopter a signé une série d'accord de coopération portant notamment sur le développement d'un centre de maintenance et d'un centre d'entrainement en Malaisie, ainsi que l'intégration d'industriels locaux dans le réseau de fournisseurs de l'hélicoptériste européen.

Royal Malaysian Navy selects DCNS' Gowind corvette for its Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) program

The Gowind frigate, designed by French company DCNS, has been selected for the Royal Malaysian Navy’s Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) programme. However, the contract for building the six ships remains on hold due to disagreements between the builder, Boustead Naval Shipyard Sdn Bhd (BNS), and the end user RMN, according to people familiar with the programme.

One of the key sticking points is BNS and DCNS’s insistence that the ships adopt the SETIS combat management system (CMS) designed by the French company.

RMN instead wants another system developed by Thales, the Tacticos, being integrated into one of its vessels, KD Kasturi.

The navy had hoped to reduce the number of CMS in its fleet to reduce training and support issues. RMN chief Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Jaafar told theSun yesterday that the government had chosen the Gowind design for the LCS programme.

He declined to confirm or deny speculation that the contract would only be signed when the RMN was satisfied that its requirements were met. He, however, confirmed most of the specifications for the ship had been finalised.

Citation :

The six (6) units will be built by Boustead (Malaysia) starting in 2013. Current specs are as follows :
Length: 107 meters
Breadth: 16 meters
Full load displacement: 2,730 tonnes
Propulsion : CODAD

and Sensors : Rheinmetall TMEO Mk2 - TMX/EO E-O tracking and FCS,
Thales SMART-S Mk2 3D multibeam; Thales Captas sonar; Although DCNS is
pushing for SETIS combat management system, RMNavy prefers Thales
Tacticos now installed on their other large vessels.

Expected Armaments :
- 1 x Bofors 57 mm Mk2 main gun
- 12 x Sylver 35 launchers for MBDA VL-MICA SAM
- 8 x MM40 Exocet Block III AShM
- 2 x MSI 30mm (remote)

The Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) unveiled for the first time an official rendering of its future Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) - Second Generation Patrol Vessel (SGPV). The vessel is based on DCNS' Gowind Combat corvette design. DCNS is the warship design authority while local shipyard Boustead Naval Shipyard Sdn will be in charge of buidling the vessels locally.

The RMN's LCS will have a length of 111 meters and a displacement of 3,100 tons. The 6 vessels will be fitted with 57mm Mark 3 main guns with stealth cupola from BAE Systems Bofors. It was confirmed to us during LIMA 2013 that the combat management system will be the SETIS by DCNS, the Fire Control Systems will be provided by Rheinmetall, and the engines will be provided by MTU. There will be two 30mm remote weapon stations by MSI. Thales announced ealier this year that it has signed a Letter of Award with Contraves Advanced Devices Sdn. Bhd. to supply six SMART-S Mk2 naval surveillance radar systems, as well as six CAPTAS-2 towed sonar systems for the Royal Malaysian Navy’s Second Generation Patrol Vessel (SGPV) Littoral Combat Ships (LCS). Navy Recognition's own sources indicate it is now highly likely that the anti-ship missiles and surface to air missile will be provided by MBDA (MM40 Block 3 and VL Mica respectively). First ship of the class is set to be floated out and lowered in the water via a platform in December of 2018.

During DSA 2014 Anuar bin Murad, Director of Defence and Security at BIHC and Gowind program manager, gives us the latest update on the SGPV (Second Generation Patrol Vessel) - LCS (Littoral Combat Ship) program for the Royal Malaysian Navy. The vessel is based on DCNS' Gowind combat corvette design.

La Malaisie a publiquement manifesté son intérêt pour le système antiaérien russe Pantsir S1. Cela confirme l’attractivité du matériel de défense russe dans un secteur hautement concurrentiel.

La Russie est prête à effectuer l’entretien et à moderniser le parc de chasseurs MiG-29N livrés à la Malaisie en 1994, a déclaré un responsable de la Compagnie aéronautique unifiée (OAK) lors du salon d’armement de Langkawi.
