No M113s? Can you confirm whether or not the Malaysian Army has 211 AIFVs? Thanks. --Edward Sandstig 08:34, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
No M113. What we have are M113 variants such as KIFV (now MIFV) and ACV 300 (locally known as Adnan). If you mean AIFV, then that should be Adnan/ACV 300.
The IFV were not called ADNAN and it is a South Korean made vehicles.

[edit] Graphic of the Army Structure

I'm currently working on a project to create graphics of the structure of the most important Armies. i.e. French Army; German Army; Italian Army I also want to make a graphic of the structure of the Malaysian Army, but the information at this point is not sufficient, as there is no information how the units are structured (i.e. which Regiments/Batallions belong to which Brigade; which Brigade to which Divison;…) Does anyone have this information- and also the Brigades names and/or numbers? Thanks noclador
