Malaysia wants IAF to train thier sukhoi pilots

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NEW DELHI: Malaysia is keen to cooperate with India on joint defence tactical training in the air with the Russian-made Sukhoi-30MK fighter aircraft, and below the sea with the French Scorpene-class submarines. Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, who is also Defence Minister, said Malaysia would hold discussions with India on the possibility of training for its Sukhoi pilots and cooperating on maintenance of aircraft as well as spare parts. The aircraft used by both countries is the same, although the avionics on the Indian version are slightly different, he told Malaysian journalists covering his week-long visit to India. Najib said Malaysia was also looking at working with India on the training of crew and maintenance of its Scorpene submarines scheduled to be delivered in 2009. Malaysia bought two of the state-of-the-art stealth submarines at a cost of US$580mil (RM2bil) each and they are being built by European naval shipbuilders DCN International in Cherbourg, France, and by Izar at Cartagena, Spain. We can look at the possibility of joint training on tactics. India has acquired six such submarines, he said.

RSN has ASW ex with the Indian ships and subs almost annually since 1999.

I think they are almost blue-water navy, everything also have.

Sunday June 11, 2006,RMAF pilots may go to India for training

BY M. VEERA PANDIYAN

BANGALORE: Malaysia is keen to send RMAF pilots for training in India and source technical support, maintenance and spare parts for its 18 Sukhoi-30MK multi-role fighter aircraft ordered from Russia last month.

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said a formal request would be made to the Indian government on these two areas.

Any agreement will be subject to the final decision of the Indian government, he said after visiting Indias state-owned Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) aircraft assembly division at Nasik, Maharashtra.

Najib, who is Defence Minister, said HAL was currently assembling 140 Su-30MK aircraft and ground support systems for Indias Air Force.

As such, the aeronautics company can be considered a capable source for training our Sukhoi maintenance technicians and supply of spare parts and support equipment, he said.

The Su-30MK is a twin-engine multi-role fighter capable of being operated as an interceptor, bomber and trainer with day and night flying capabilities in all weather conditions.

Malaysias Su-30MKs are scheduled to be delivered in three batches, the first six by March next year, another six by December and the remaining six by the end of 2008.
