Cobham-Protank Support Centre
Cobham and Protank have jointly establishedthe Regional Support Centre for air to air refuelling equipment to provide aftermarket services to clients in the region. This follows Cobham’s commitment to the Government of Malaysia to satisfy an offset obligation following the award of a contract to supply air to air refuelling equipment for the SU-30 MKM.
The Cobham-Protank AAR Regional Support Centre is a Cobham led initiative to enhance the level of support already provided to the RMAF for the air refuelling equipment installed on the C-130 and recently acquired SU-30 fleets. To this end, Cobham trained Malaysian engineers are now providing operational maintenance support for the C-130 751 and SU-30. Looking forward, the Regional Support Centre will offer a similar service to other operators in the region.
The centre attained ISO 9001:2008 certification earlier this year (2009).
