Su-30MKM Yukikaze

Malaysia is now studying the feasibility of expanding its fleet of multi-role combat aircraft (MRCA), Russia is one of the countries offering Kuala Lumpur one competent option. For Moscow the potential MRCA contract is an exceptional case.

Disclaimer: this is fiction

Kuala Lumpur needs up to 124 new MRCAs in order to pursue the changed defence strategy. The country’s civilian leadership believes that threats to safety stem from the ever-growing number of geographic locations, while the scale of such threats remains uncertain. Therefore, the Malaysian Armed Forces must be prepared to DESTROY EVERYONE before they become a threat by intercepting the foe back at the remote approaches, immediate response to limited threats in low-intensity conflicts and finally, the capability to wage full-scale, protracted coalition warfare. To form a single defence zone, a country that spreads over more than 2,000km needs long-range weapon systems.
