Saab 2000 Commuter VersionTEMPUR Magazine February 2008, stated that Royal Malaysian Air Force is planning to procure the Saab 2000 for their Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) aircraft.
Some background about this procurement program. The planning to acquire such capability has been in place since Malaysia 6th Plan. Now is the middle of Malaysia 9th Plan.
Why Saab 2000?
This Sweden made aircraft was designed for passenger carrying aircraft. The European Regulation limit aircraft operation for maximum 25 years. The age of Saab 2000 which has been stopped production since 1999, is between 9 to 16 years old. The first batches are going to phased out another 9 years.
If you are the owner of Saab 2000, what should you do? Sell the aircraft? Who in this earth willing to spend billion of dollar just to get second-hand refurbished junk scrap metal to kill their own people.
The aircraft manufacturer will achieve their objective? But what do you think of the objective of the new buyer?
