The Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) has proposed for the government to acquire anti-submarine helicopters to increase the force's capabilities.
Navy chief Admiral says "At least six anti-submarine aircraft are needed to form a squadron.
The Kota Kinabalu RMN Base in Teluk Sepanggar, Sabah will house the squadron where two of the country's submarines are also stationed.
The Kota Kinabalu RMN Base currently has two French Scorpene submarines, the KD Tunku Abdul Rahman and KD Tun Razak.

La Armada española sólo cuenta con dos submarinos operativos
La crisis ha reducido a la mitad la flota de submarinos de la Armada, ya que después de que el 'Siroco' fuera dado de baja el pasado junio los presupuestos para el próximo año no contemplan la gran revisión a la que se tendría que someter el 'Tramontana' para continuar operativo.
De esta manera, España permanecerá sólo con dos submarinos disponibles a la espera de que se incorpore la nueva flota que está siendo construida por Navantia, un programa de más de 2.000 millones de euros.
La Armada espera que el primero de los nuevos submarinos, que ya está en avanzado estado de construcción en los astilleros de Navantia en Cartagena, esté operativo en 2016.
