DCNS signed yesterday a contract with the Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) for the supply of a simulator and services allowing extensive training around navigation safety, combat system, including sensors, and periscope operations for Scorpene submarines.
This contract, worth around Malaysian Ringgit 128 Million*, underlines the continuous collaboration of the Royal Malaysian Navy with DCNS on the Scorpene submarines programme.
In 2002, Malaysia ordered two Scorpene Submarines. The first Malaysian Scorpene submarine, KD Tunku Abdul Rahman, sail home on the 3rd of September 2009 and is now undergoing tropical water and weapons trial off the waters of Sabah. The second Scorpene submarine, KD Tun Razak, is expected to arrive home by July this year.
