UNTUK bergelar sniper atau penembak tempat, seseorang anggota 69 Komando itu perlu mahir menggunakan senjata terutama PM Accuracy Internaitional.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



BILA berlaku situasi genting seperti penculikan dan penahanan tebusan, ia pasti memerlukan kepakaran dan kemahiran bagi menyelesaikan masalah tersebut.

Bagi Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) apa pun jua bentuk penyelesaian, ia mestilah dilakukan dengan cepat dan pantas dan lebih penting nyawa tebusan perlulah selamat.

Sehubungan itu, pasukan 69 Komando telah diberi tanggungjawab berat terutama dalam melahirkan anggota sniper.

Melalui anggota sniper inilah, situasi seperti penahanan tebusan dalam diatasi dengan berkesan.

Dalam hal ini, peranan sniper sebagai penembak tepat amat penting bagi menyelesaikan sesuatu situasi.

Ketika keadaan genting inilah, seseorang sniper perlu memperlihatkan kebolehan sebenarnya kerana kesilapan yang kecil bakal mengundang padah pada nyawa tebusan.

Mungkin ramai tidak menyedari bahawa seseorang sniper itu sebenarnya bukan sahaja perlu mahir menembak secara tepat pada sasaran, malah setiap keputusan dan pergerakannya juga harus mengambil kira banyak faktor lain seperti keadaan sekeliling.

Ini kerana, tiupan angin yang kuat juga boleh menyebabkan tembakan yang dilepaskan tersasar.

Begitu juga halnya dengan pergerakan angin, sama ada ia datang dari arah hadapan atau belakang, mahupun dari kiri atau kanan.

Semua ini bakal menentukan arah peluru yang mungkin tersasar dari sasaran sebenar.

Bila berlaku situasi sedemikian, seseorang sniper itu perlu menjadikan keadaan sekeliling seperti baju yang disidai pada ampaian dan sebagainya sebagai penunjuk keadaan serta arah angin.

Di samping itu, seseorang sniper juga perlu berada dalam keadaan tenang dan sabar sebelum sesuatu tembakan itu dilepaskan.

Apa pun jua keadaannya, kejayaan seseorang sniper itu bergantung kepada kerjasama berpasukan dengan rakan-rakan setugas lain.

Bagi memantapkan kemahiran sebagai sniper, pasukan 69 Komando telah mengadakan latihan untuk para jurulatihnya di Lapang Sasar Antarabangsa Langkawi, Kedah baru-baru ini.

Lebih 18 orang jurulatih pelbagai pangkat, menyertai latihan itu dengan menggunakan senjata jenis PM Accuracy International dan M16.

Latihan itu bertujuan memahirkan setiap jurulatih dan ia diadakan dalam pelbagai situasi supaya setiap anggota dan pegawai benar-benar bersedia terutama apabila berhadapan dengan situasi sebenar.

Pegawai Latihan Cawangan Latihan Peperangan Khas 69 Komando, Asisten Supritendan Hakemal Hawari yang mengetuai latihan itu memberitahu, latihan tersebut diadakan berterusan bagi memahirkan setiap anggota dan pegawai.

Menurutnya, setiap anggota 60 Komando perlu mempamerkan disiplin yang tinggi dengan mematuhi arahan jurulatih sniper bagi menguasai kebolehan sebagai penembak tepat.

揢ntuk bergelar seorang anggota sniper, disiplin yang tinggi amat penting. Kita tidak boleh silap langkah.

揝etiap arahan dan pergerakan harus dipatuhi dan diamati.

揑ni kerana operasi yang dijalankan melibatkan nyawa tebusan. Kita perlu mengutamakan nyawa tebusan dan orang awam,拻 katanya.

Menurut Hakemal, antara latihan diterapkan pada anggota sniper 69 Komando ialah jangan sekali-kali bongkak dengan kebolehan yang dimiliki.

Malah, mereka turut digalak supaya sentiasa merendah diri dan terus belajar bagi memahirkan diri.

Empat faktor utama perlu ada pada setiap anggota jika mahu menjadi bergelar sniper.

Pertama, seseorang itu perlu cergas dan sihat dari segi mental dan fizikal. Ini kerana, keadaan tersebut memerlukan anggota berkenaan sentiasa bersedia pada bila-bila masa termasuk dalam membuat sesuatu keputusan genting.

Faktor kedua ialah seseorang sniper itu pada asal atau semula jadinya adalah seorang penembak yang baik.

Ini diikuti seseorang sniper itu hendaklah seorang penyabar dan tenang walaupun berada dalam situasi tertekan atau terdesak.

Faktor seterusnya, seseorang sniper juga adalah seorang yang pintar. Ini termasuk dalam membuat keputusan kerana situasi yang dihadapi sentiasa berubah.

Kesilapan membuat keputusan, bukan sahaja bakal menggagalkan operasi menyelamat, malah boleh menyebabkan nyawa tebusan melayang.

Hakemal memberitahu, selain mahir menembak secara tepat, seseorang sniper turut dilatih membuka dan memasang senjata.

揝eseorang sniper perlu tahu mengenai senjata yang diguna. Buka hanya tahu menembak. Dia perlu tahu kelebihan dan kekurangan yang ada pada senjata itu apabila berada dalam situasi tertentu.

揝emua pengetahuan ini termasuk kemahiran ilmu yang berada di sekeliling seperti keadaan angin dan sebagainya perlu ada pada diri anggota sniper,拻 katanya.

Selain itu, para jurulatih 69 Komando itu turut dilatih cara-cara `stalking

Towards the end of World War Two, Balang Sigar emptied his gun into a Japanese officer who hid in undergrowth in front of him.


BA扠ELALAN: His British army vest is faded and frayed, but Balang Sigar wears it with pride, the three medals he received for his service during World War Two on his chest.

He is old now, estimates put him at well into his 80s, and many of the details of his life have faded.

But he will never forget the day when as a teenage resistance fighter he killed the officer leading 600 Japanese soldiers.

They were raiding the Orang Ulu longhouses in the deep jungles of Lawas for rice, livestock and any other food they could lay their hands on to feed their comrades in Limbang and Brunei.

Sigar was a member of "Ma-yo" (Major) Tom Harrison抯 resistance group, and he is the only one out of the group of 10 alive.

He is not sure how old he is, typical of people of his age living in the interiors of Sarawak where births and deaths are not recorded.

The Special Air Service-trained Harrison was parachuted into Bario to organise the resistance and harass the Japanese in Limbang and Lawas towards the end of the war.

"There were 40 of us and 600 of them," Sigar said, relating his war-time experience to visitors curious about his medals at last week抯 Apple Fiesta here.

They were heading for Ba扠elalan in the direction of Long Semado and Long Beluyuk, about a half-day walk away.

"So we laid an ambush. During the fight, the Japanese officer found cover in the undergrowth.

"But unfortunately for him, it was right in front of me. I was face-to-face with him. He didn抰 fire, because as I later found out he had run out of ammunition. But that didn抰 stop me from emptying my Sten gun into him," Sigar said.

"We suffered no causalities. A few of them were killed. But what surprised us was that the Japanese, for all their brutality, had no stomach for a fight, and surrendered after seeing their officer killed."

His "reward" for killing the officer was his samurai sword, now hidden from antique collectors in his Lawas home. He抯 been offered a lot of money for it, but it is a trophy he wants to hand down to his son.

"We were not paid to fight. The only training we had was how to handle the gun we were issued.

"But we didn抰 mind. My friends and I just wanted to stop the Japanese brutality. They were terrorising our people.

"If I was asked to do it all over again, I would," he said.

He was awarded the Pacific Star for his role in the resistance group at the end of the war in 1945.

Britain抯 King George and Queen Elizabeth II later each awarded him a medal for his war-time exploits. But he can抰 recall when he received the medals.

KEHADIRANNYA di medan peperangan sering kali digeruni pihak lawan. Walau dengan hanya sebutir peluru, mereka mampu memusnahkan aset terpenting musuh atau menjatuhkan moral pasukan lawan.

Itulah kelebihan yang dimiliki oleh seorang penembak hendap atau 憇niper

UNMANNED Systems Technology Sdn Bhd (UST) targets to commercially market Malaysia's very own unmanned aircraft vehicle (UAV), or spy planes, internationally by early next year.

Company spokesperson Colonel (Rtd) Rosdi Mahmud said although the planes are still in the research and development (R&D) stage, there have been enquiries from potential overseas customers, namely from the Middle East.

He said although the UAV project was carried out to support the country's Armed Forces, there are plans to market the product internationally to the commercial sector as well.

"Our business plan is as such that we will first concentrate on our launch customers, which will be the army and navy. We expect to secure government contracts for the UAV within four months.

"However, the UAV is not exclusively for them," he told a press conference after signing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Defence Ministry on the development of the UAV in Kuala Lumpur yesterday.

UST is a joint venture company between Composite Technology Research Malaysia Sdn Bhd (CTRM), System Consultancy Services Sdn Bhd (SCS) and Ikramatic Systems Sdn Bhd.

CTRM has a 51 per cent stake in the company, followed by SCS and Ikramatic with 35 and 14 per cent respectively.

Under the MOU, CTRM and SCS will each receive RM2 million with Ikramatic getting RM1 million to finance R&D activities of the UAV over the next four months.

Rosdi said the company aims to increase its current paid-up capital from RM100,000 to RM10 million within the next three months.

The UAV project took off in December 2005 as part of the initiative to further develop the country's electronic surveillance system.

UST has already developed five prototypes of the spy planes, which are not only for tactical use by the Armed Forces, but also for surveillance over Malaysian waters.

10 Briged Para pamer Gerak Pantas

Oleh METRA SYAHRIL MOHAMED



ANGGOTA-ANGGOTA 10 Briged Para bergerak pantas sebaik turun dari helikopter.



SUASANA tenang di ladang tebu Chuping yang terletak kira-kira lima kilometer dari pintu masuk sempadan Malaysia-Thailand di Padang Besar pada pagi baru-baru ini terganggu seketika.

Ruang angkasanya yang cerah bertukar mendung apabila tiga pesawat tidak dikenali 'memuntahkan' beratus-ratus anak kapal yang kemudiannya memenuhi hampir segenap ruang ladang tebu terbabit.

Semuanya lengkap bersenjata dan tanpa sebarang tentangan, ratusan anak kapal itu tadi mudah menawan ladang tebu yang berkeluasan kira-kira 10,000 hektar.

Namun, ini bukanlah cerita makhluk asing mahu pun lakonan filem perang yang anda saksikan di pawagam mahupun kaca televisyen.

Apa yang berlaku cuma ujian dan latihan terjunan 560 anggota penerjun dari 10 Briged Para yang berpangkalan di Kem Terendak, Melaka.

Kesemua mereka yang menaiki pesawat Tentera Udara Diraja Malaysia (TUDM) memulakan terjunan sebaik berada pada jarak 240 hingga 300 meter tepat pukul sembilan pagi, sejam selepas berlepas dari Pangkalan Udara Subang.

Peritnya, ujian tersebut sebenarnya telah bermula sejak pukul 4.30 pagi lagi apabila mereka diarah melakukan persiapan lengkap.

Bagaimanapun, sepanjang perjalanan, anggota penerjun itu turut diuji daya ketahanan apabila pesawat yang dinaiki melakukan pelbagai 'aksi'.

Kalau tidak tahan, tentu ada yang akan muntah atau pening kepala.

Apa yang membanggakan, latihan itu turut menyaksikan ketangkasan tujuh anggota penerjun wanita yang tidak mahu ketinggalan menonjolkan daya saing kepada penerjun lelaki.

Sebaik sahaja kesemua mendarat, setiap anggota penerjun kemudian terpaksa meredah ‘lautan' ladang tebu sebelum berkumpul di lokasi yang ditetapkan.

Misi seterusnya ialah kesemua anggota penerjun itu diarah berjalan kaki sejauh berpuluh-puluh kilometer sambil memikul bebanan antara 80 hingga 90 kilogram seorang dan lengkap bersenjata untuk menawan sasaran yang dikenal pasti iaitu kawasan Sintok, Kedah.

Itu adalah sebahagian daripada senario latihan yang dinamakan Eksesais Kanopi Kenyalang siri 31/07 yang menjadi acara tahunan pasukan itu yang lebih dikenali sebagai `beret merah hati'.

Keesokannya, selepas berjaya ‘menakluki’ ladang tebu Chuping menerusi 560 orang penerjun, pasukan 10 Briged Para memperluaskan lagi wilayah ‘penguasaan’ mereka di Sintok.

Kali ini, dengan hanya kekuatan seramai 240 anggota, pasukan tersebut dilihat ‘menawan’ kawasan tersebut menerusi operasi pendaratan secara taktikal dari udara (Tactical Air Landing Operation - TALO).

Operasi melalui helikopter itu dilakukan secara pantas, sesuai dengan gelaran diberikan kepada pasukan berkenaan iaitu ‘Briged Taufan’ kerana kepantasan dan ketangkasan warganya ketika bertindak.

TALO dan Eksesais Kanopi Kenyalang merupakan gabungan dua sesi latihan dinamakan Eksesais Gerak Pantas yang harus ditempuhi setiap anggota briged terbabit.

Sesi latihan itu berlangsung sekitar kawasan Alor Setar, Chuping dan Sintok.

Eksesais Gerak Pantas diadakan bagi menguji kesediaan setiap anggota dalam melaksanakan sesuatu operasi terutama ketika kecemasan.

Ia juga bertujuan memastikan kemahiran dan ketangkasan anggota-anggota 10 Briged Para sentiasa dipertingkatkan dari semasa ke semasa.

RMAF wants more deadly Hornets
By : Adrian David

KUALA LUMPUR: The Royal Malaysian Air Force aims to remain a deterrent force by having fifth generation fighters like the F/A-18E/F Super Hornets.
This will strengthen its capability in protecting the country抯 maritime assets within the exclusive economic zone, including the vital oil and gas assets in the Spratly Islands and the Ambalat oil block off Borneo.

RMAF chief Gen Datuk Seri Azizan Ariffin said, budget willing, the procurement of such multi-role combat aircraft (MRCA) could be done under the 10th Malaysia Plan (2010-2015).

"Failing which, we may increase the acquistion of MRCA like the Sukhoi Su-30MKM, 18 of which have already been procured," he said.

"The first two of the 18 Su-30MKM were handed over to the RMAF last week, while the remaining 16 will be delivered by the year抯 end, in time for the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace exhibition."
Azizan said the Sukhois, ordered in 2003 at a cost of RM3.42 billion, would be based with the 11th squadron in Gong Kedak, Kelantan.

"To date, four pilots, two weapons sensor specialists, four engineers and 53 technical crew have completed training for three months in Russia.

"A second batch of crew will be sent to either Russia or India soon," he said at Wisma Pertahanan in Jalan Padang Tembak, in conjunction with the RMAF抯 49th anniversary today.

Azizan said the RMAF was also looking at stealth technology in the near future, to enhance its electronic and non-conventional warfare capability, especially in combating terrorism.

The acquisition of more Sukhois or Hornets will, however, not affect the operations of the existing 18 MiG-29N fighters, he added.

"Although a decade old, the MiG-29Ns are still very useful and can serve up to 30 years with proper maintenance and refurbishment.

"Our ultimate aim is to refurbish and upgrade our combat aircraft every 10 years to remain as a deterrent force, and enhance our surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities."

He said the decision to acquire a mixture of western and eastern bloc fighters was not only to satisfy political aspirations, but took into consideration factors like versatility, transfer of technology, cost, operational effectiveness, availability of spares, logistics support, crew training, the environment and weather.

As part of the RMAF抯 modernisation programme, it would procure four Airbus A400M, 18 Pilatus PC-7 Mk II, ten Aermacchi MB-339CM and five unmanned aerial vehicles.

"We are refurbishing five F-5E and two RF-5 for air tactical reconnaissance, while there is a need for airborne early-warning-and-control aeroplanes and combat search-and-rescue helicopters

"We are also looking at replacing nine of the BAE Systems Hawks that crashed so that we can continue operating with 28 jets," Azizan said.

Two of the A400M transport aeroplanes will be delivered in 2013 and another two a year later, while the MB-339s will be delivered from February 2009, and the UAVs from next year.

"The A400M will also double up as an air tanker, taking over the air-to-air refuelling of the long-range fighter jets from the KC-130 Hercules," he said.

On another note, Azizan said the RMAF spent nearly RM6 million last year to carry out humanitarian and relief missions in Solo and Yogyakarta in Indonesia, and Timor Leste.

"A large part of the defence budget is also spent annually on bilateral and multilateral exercises. This is in addition to the 慐yes in the Sky

Jasa Allahyarham Konstabel Mohd Fakaruddin Dihargai

KUALA LUMPUR, 2 Jun (Bernama) -- Jasa Allahyarham Konstabel Mohd Fakaruddin Zakaria yang maut ketika mengadakan rondaan cegah jenayah di Semenyih, Selangor tahun lepas, dihargai dengan penganugerahan pingat Panglima Gagah Berani (PGB).

Allahyarham Mohd Fakaruddin, 24, dari Bachok, Kelantan merupakan penerima tunggal bagi pingat itu dalam senarai penganugerahan bagi 2,309 orang yang menerima darjah kebesaran, bintang dan pingat sempena hari keputeraan Yang di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin hari ini.

Konstabel itu yang masih bujang maut setelah ditikam semasa bergelut ketika cuba menangkap seorang lelaki dalam rondaan mencegah jenayah di Kampung Baru di Semenyih, Selangor pada September tahun lepas.

Dalam kejadian pukul 2 pagi itu, Allahyarham yang bertugas di Balai Polis Semenyih sedang mengadakan rondaan bermotosikal di kampung tersebut bersama rakannya Lans Koperal Minhat Wahit, sebelum ternampak dua lelaki yang berkelakuan mencurigakan.

Kedua-dua lelaki itu cuba melarikan diri sebaik sahaja mereka ternampak kedua-dua anggota polis berkenaan.

Fakaruddin dan rakannya kemudian mengejar kedua-dua lelaki itu dan beliau berjaya menangkap seorang daripada mereka manakala seorang lagi melarikan diri.

Beliau bagaimanapun ditikam di dada kiri semasa bergelut dengan penjenayah itu menyebabkan beliau melepaskan pegangannya.

Pingat Gagah Berani atau Pahlawan Gagah Berani yang diperkenalkan pada tahun 1960 merupakan yang kedua tertinggi selepas pingat Seri Pahlawan Gagah Perkasa yang dianugerahkan untuk pasukan keselamatan.

Sementara itu, Ketua Polis Negara Tan Sri Musa Hassan ketika ditemui di Istana Negara hari ini berkata, kerajaan menghargai pengorbanan Fakaruddin sebagai seorang anggota polis yang berdedikasi sehingga terkorban semasa bertugas.

Beliau berkata sifat komited dan berani yang ada pada konstabel itu patut dicontohi anggota polis lain dalam menegakkan keadilan untuk masyarakat dan negara.

"Konstabel Fakaruddin telah menjalankan tugasnya dengan berani dan komited. Pengiktirafan ini amat membanggakan saya dan anggota PDRM," katanya yang turut menerima darjah kebesaran Panglima Mangku Negara (P.M.N), yang membawa gelaran Tan Sri hari ini.

Seramai 42 penerima menerima darjah kebesaran persekutuan hari ini daripada sejumlah 2,309 penerima darjah kebesaran, bintang dan pingat sempena hari keputeraan Yang di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin.

Yessss, Super Bugs!

If only we've the budget for it in RMK 10 ... well, more Suks as replacement for SuperBugs (should budget become an issue) don't hurt either.
