RMAF's second A400M on test flight in Spain before delivery to Malaysia |
The Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) has received its second A400M Atlas transport aircraft from Airbus Defence & Space. Malaysia is the first export customer for the A400M, having placed a $2.5 billion order for four A400M in 2005. The first aircraft was delivered on 17 March 2015. The remaining two A400Ms are expected to be delivered this year. With far superior performance than the existing C-130 operated by RMAF, the A400M will greatly improve the strategic and tactical airlift capability of the RMAF.
