KUALA LUMPUR: Former Deputy Defence Minister Datuk Seri Ikmal Hisham Abdul Aziz (PN-Tanah Merah) seeks answers from the Defence Ministry on whether the helicopters involved in the RM16bil leasing contract are fit for military operations.
“I would like to ask Mindef whether the AW149 helicopters can perform basic functions such as under-slung transport of 105mm howitzers, which are widely used by the Malaysian Army,” he said while debating the motion of thanks for the Royal Address at the Dewan Rakyat on Wednesday (Feb 12).
