SUBANG JAYA (Bernama): The Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) will be terminating the service of all Nuri helicopters within five years, says RMAF chief Gen Tan Sri Ackbal Abdul Samad.
He said the helicopter service was being phased out because of the age of the Nuri, which had served more than 52 years, and are obsolete as most of the components and spare parts are no longer in production.
