RMAF Future; need opinions

That's not true. about 2/3 of China's flankers (not including J-11B) can do so with R-77.

If I got information correctly, MiG-31 can attacks 4 targets at the same time.

I don't know whether you've ingested a psychoactive substance, or if you have spells of incoherence without chemical assistance, but I suggest you try to ensure your posts contain either information, or meaningful comment, in future.

Give them more time and they can do as good if not better than the IAF. If you read comments in sgforum, they even thought the Su-30MKM was flown by Russian pilots during LIMA 2007 and couldn't believe that RMAF pilots could learn it so fast. I read somewhere that they have mastered about 70% of the aircraft capabilities right now.
nah..i doubt that is true..have u seen what the russian pilots can do with their sukhois with variants inferior to that of the MkM?try browsing through youtube and u might find them..maybe they were amazed by how fast our pilots learned to fly the flankers rather then what we did with them..just wanna state did any one ofyou realize during the LIMA exhibition, one of the russians pilot was shocked to see what the malaysian su-30 mkm pilot can do.
I read this in the local news straits times news paper on the end of the LIMA exhibition:
here is one of the websites that has public postings of the LIMA photos..posted some myself there..need to register thou..add www in front..i dont have 15 posts yet so i cant post the link..
malaysianwings.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=7248
and about where the flankers are based..they are all based in the brand new RMAF airbase in gong kedak,kelantan..was build even before the first MkMs arrived..

Regarding the RWR, its from Sauth Africa IIRC. There must be a reason as to why the Gov choose an african solution compared to a european or even russian ones. What are its capability of intercepting an AESA radar?
Also whats the update on the second batch of Flankers? Is there any indication as of when this will be?

That South African company is a unit of SAAB avitronics of Sweden.
and official info did mention that the system is run under a british software.
the extras?hmm,maybe the possibilities of another squadron?
about the google earth thing,cant spot any MiGs at the kuantan airbase either..there must have hidden it sumwhere..

Sometimes I can't understand RMAF purchasing. The SU 30MKM may perhaps be a fine aircraft, but if the service is to retain air superiority in region, it should either consider buying another large number of SU 30MKMs or just settle for F16s.
I am sure the Malaysians could purchase scores of F16s and its probably a better buy in terms of numbers rather than pursue the Russian option.
But otherwise I am not convinced. How would the SU 30MKM fair against other aircraft??
