Samtel Avionics partner with Royal Malaysian Air Force for Su-30MKM aircraft

The Samtel Avionics has announced strategic collaboration with Malaysia-based Aerospace Technology Systems Corp. Sdn. Bhd. (ATSC) to jointly support the Royal Malaysian Air Force’s (RMAF) fleet, particularly the Su-30MKM aircraft, with cutting-edge avionics systems, repair and overhaul services and post-sales support.

Under the agreement, ATSC and Samtel will jointly support RMAF in Malaysia for the repair, upgrade, technical services, and post-sales support related to aircraft display systems, avionics components, and automated test equipment of Su-30MKM aircraft and other RMAF aircraft in Malaysia.

"The companies also agree that ATSC will procure avionics, aircraft display systems and automatic test equipment for Su-30MKM aircraft and other RMAF aircraft from Samtel," said the official statement.


“This partnership is a significant milestone in our global growth journey,” said Puneet Kaura, Managing Director & CEO, Samtel Avionics. “It aligns perfectly with our vision of providing indigenous, world-class avionics solutions to allied nations while fostering long-term industrial partnerships. Through ATSC’s strong local footprint and our technology leadership, we are confident of delivering exceptional value to the Royal Malaysian Air Force.”

ATSC, which already holds a binding contract to provide MRO services for the RMAF’s Su-30MKM fleet, will leverage this collaboration to become the centre of excellence for all related services, including spares, upgrades, modernisation, and technical support. Samtel, in turn, will supply advanced avionics and display systems, while supporting local capability development through knowledge transfer and sustained engagement.
