KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia will modernise its defence system by incorporating drone technology as part of a comprehensive upgrade plan, with the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) set to receive its first batch of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) from Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) beginning in 2026.
Deputy Defence Minister Adly Zahari told the Dewan Rakyat on Tuesday (Aug 5) that the Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) had already begun enhancing its operational capabilities under the Fourth Dimension of MAF development plan, which aims to ensure the military remains formidable and respected.
