KUALA LUMPUR: Over 80% of the Royal Malaysian Air Force’s BAe Hawk jets are now mission-capable following an improved serviceability level since last year, said Defence Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak. 

He said since the introduction of the jets in 1993, RMAF had never been able to achieve even the satisfactory 70% mark until 2000 due to several factors which affected the fighter pilots conversion training programme.
