Description

 

Here are some photos of a TUDM (Royal Malaysian Air Force) CAC Sabre Mk 32 of 11 SKN. The Australian Government transferred a small number of CAC Sabres to the TUDM following their retirement from RAAF service. This airframe is the Gate Guard at TUDM Base Butterworth in Northern Malaysia

This particular Sabre was originally A94-365 on charge with the RAAF, one of the last produced by the Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation.

 

 

It was transferred to the TUDM in August 1969 after RAAF service with 75 and 76 Sqns and 2 OCU. It was withdrawn from TUDM service in 1976.
