Asian Defence & Diplomacy Vol.15 Sep/Oct 2008, pp.10-14 (130)Summary: The Malaysian Army for years was optimised for counter-insurgency operations; as such this meant that its requirements for armoured vehicles were limited. By the end of the 1980s, the end of the insurgent threat had put the Malaysian Army in a situation where it would need to restructure itself for conventional operations and this inevitably led it to evaluate new options in terms of armoured vehicles. To this day the Malaysian Army is still working on upgrading the armour capabilities that it has, and this upgrading process seems set to continue for many years yet.
