00:00:02,700 --> 00:00:06,300
The main idea for 10 Para Brigade is to enable...

00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:07,700
...the Malaysia Armed Forces to have...

3
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:11,000
...a Rapid Deployment Force

4
00:00:11,100 --> 00:00:14,500
Something that can be deployed at any time...

5
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,000
...rapidly, quickly, to anywhere

6
00:00:19,500 --> 00:00:21,800
Only the last drop of blood...

7
00:00:21,900 --> 00:00:25,000
...will stop us from preparing our troops...

8
00:00:25,100 --> 00:00:26,500
...to always be ready

LOCKMAN

10
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,000
The 10th Para Brigade

11
00:01:08,100 --> 00:01:11,500
The main unit in the Rapid Deployment Force

12
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,000
of the Malaysia Armed Forces

13
00:01:14,100 --> 00:01:17,700
The readiness of the Army's paratrooper

14
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:22,000
Enables them to respond to any threats and 
crisis

15
00:01:22,100 --> 00:01:24,400
within the country or abroad

16
00:01:24,500 --> 00:01:29,300
on land, sea, and air rapidly

17
00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:33,800
[General] 10th Para Brigade is a parachute 
unit

18
00:01:33,900 --> 00:01:37,300
or better known as a para brigade

19
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:58,000
The unit reached its operational status

20
00:01:58,100 --> 00:02:01,500
on 10th October 1994

21
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,500
at Padang Matsirat, Langkawi

22
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,700
through an exercise known as Halilintar at 
the time

23
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,500
officially by the 4th Prime Minister

24
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,500
Brigadier General Khairul Azmizal Ahmad Natal

25
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,000
the Commander of 10th Para

26
00:02:25,100 --> 00:02:29,900
plays a role in ensuring the readiness

27
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,000
is at the highest level

28
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,100
Receiving his early military training at

29
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,000
at the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst, 
United Kingdom

30
00:02:44,100 --> 00:02:48,500
He is experienced in planning, deployments, 
operations, missions

31
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,000
and training at the highest level of impact

32
00:02:50,100 --> 00:02:53,400
[General] The main idea of 10th Para Brigade

33
00:02:53,500 --> 00:02:56,000
is to enable the Malaysia Armed Forces

34
00:02:56,100 --> 00:02:59,900
to have a rapid deployment unit

35
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,800
or known as the Rapid Deployment Forces of 
the Malaysian Armed Forces

36
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,700
It's not an exaggeration to say that

37
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,500
10th Para Brigade is an elite force

38
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:20,100
That will only be deployed at a strategic 
and operational level

39
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:26,000
that serves a trump card to the Commander 
of the Army

40
00:03:26,100 --> 00:03:30,900
if there is any need to protect the interests 
and the sovereignty of the nation

41
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:37,000
Which means that this unit can be deployed 
at any time

42
00:03:37,100 --> 00:03:41,000
Quickly, rapidly, anywhere

43
00:03:41,100 --> 00:03:43,100
No matter if it is at home or abroad

44
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:49,500
whether to defend the national waters or 
to defend strategic interests of the country

45
00:03:53,300 --> 00:03:56,500
As the elite parachute unit of the Army

46
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:02,300
mastering airborne operations and combat 
parachute drop exercises

47
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,000
becomes the main focus of the 10th Para Brigade

48
00:04:15,900 --> 00:04:21,100
Combat freefall from 10 thousand to 30 thousand 
feet

49
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,000
with the help of oxygen

50
00:04:23,100 --> 00:04:27,200
is an exercise of tactical infiltration to 
the objective

51
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:34,500
16 service members is a part of the pathfinder 
team Pandura Para Company and is divided 
into two groups

52
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:40,500
They are tasked to sneak into enemy territory 
from a high altitude without detection

53
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:08,000
Through the training for infiltrating using 
a tactical freefall

54
00:05:08,100 --> 00:05:11,000
the jumpers will use compass bearings,

55
00:05:11,100 --> 00:05:15,900
the parachute navigational operation system 
including GPS

56
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,800
enables the team to reach the determined 
drop zone

57
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:36,000
Guiding the parachute takes time up to 25 
minutes before landing

58
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:44,500
The High Altitude, High Opening, or HAHO 
technique

59
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:50,000
is known to be a method of tactical infiltration 
that is quite challenging by each jumper

60
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:57,000
Carrying a load of equipment and weapons 
of more than 20 kilograms

61
00:05:57,100 --> 00:06:01,900
jumpers must stabilize themselves in the 
air for 10 seconds

62
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:07,500
before opening their chutes at the altitude 
of 4,500 feet

63
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:18,000
The duration in the air while handling the 
parachute towards the drop zone at night

64
00:06:18,100 --> 00:06:22,900
gives an advantage to the pathfinder team

65
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:31,000
In the darkness, the prepardness and competency 
of each Pandura trooper is tested

66
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:40,500
Discpline, proficiency, professionalism, 
and a fighting spirit are valued here

67
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:07,500
Just now, 16 officers and soldiers of the 
Pandura pathfinder team have successfully 
landed

68
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,000
from an altitude of 10,000 feet

69
00:07:10,100 --> 00:07:16,000
It is understood that one of their roles 
is to mark and prepare a drop zone for the 
main force to come

70
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:26,600
[General] The Pandura Company is basically 
the ears and eyes for the brigade

71
00:07:26,700 --> 00:07:31,500
So they are among the chosen

72
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:36,400
They are some of the troops that will be 
deployed

73
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:41,300
first and foremost ahead of the deployment 
of the main force

74
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:46,200
in the context of leading para battle group 
and also following up battle group

75
00:07:46,300 --> 00:07:52,000
[Narrator] The night jump is a spearhead 
for the Gerak Pantas [Move Fast] Exercise 
2021

76
00:07:52,100 --> 00:07:58,000
in the drop zone DZ Nangka [jackfruit] in 
Besut, Terengganu

77
00:08:05,100 --> 00:08:11,100
The 9th Battalion of the Royal Malay Regiment 
Para, Terendak Camp, Melaka

78
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:19,000
[Officer] ...Battle Group Tiger with seven 
officers and 264 rank and file, ready to 
commence exercise

79
00:08:19,100 --> 00:08:21,500
Permission to proceed, sir
 
 -Proceed!

80
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,000
[Narrator] Two days before the deployment 
of the main unit, or mass drop

81
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:29,900
that will be dropped behind enemy lines

82
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,000
all participants are committed to do a warmup 
exercise as a group

83
00:08:34,100 --> 00:08:36,500
known as Para Ground Training, PGT

84
00:08:38,500 --> 00:08:40,500
Supervised by a parachute trainer

85
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,700
The warm up exercise before jumping is mandatory

86
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:48,600
to ensure that jumpers are truly prepared 
for a real jump

87
00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:05,500
A few of the Royal Malaysia Air Force's C-130 
Hercules are used in the combat static line 
drop exercise

88
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:26,500
Today, the Commander of the 10th Para, Brig. 
Gen. Khairul Azmizal Ahmad Natal

89
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:32,000
will be the first to jump to lead fellow 
troopers on the exercise this time

90
00:09:42,900 --> 00:09:48,100
Meanwhile, at the DZ Nangka drop zone in 
Besut, Terengganu

91
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:57,500
The Pandura pathfinder team that landed the 
night before is ready at the landing point 
in the drop zone

92
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:09,000
We are told that one of the tasks for the 
pathfinder team is to prepare a drop zone 
for the main force

93
00:10:09,100 --> 00:10:13,000
So, what is being done by the Pandura team 
now?

94
00:10:13,100 --> 00:10:20,100
So what happening now is the Pandura team 
in the A panel zone

95
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:28,000
an A panel is being erected to guide the 
aircraft that will come from this direction

96
00:10:28,100 --> 00:10:32,900
to proceed from here to end of the drop zone

97
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:37,800
The size of the drop zone is about 1 kilometer 
by 4 kilometers

98
00:10:37,900 --> 00:10:45,000
So we see that the A panel is tilted in a 
certain way. Why is that?

99
00:10:45,100 --> 00:10:50,000
The purpose of the tilt is so the aicraft 
can see from a further distance

100
00:10:50,100 --> 00:10:53,000
As far as two kilometers

101
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:11,000
The brigadier general has experience with 
160 static line and freefall jumps

102
00:11:11,100 --> 00:11:14,500
And this will be his 74th static line jump

103
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Like mushrooms in the sky

104
00:11:42,100 --> 00:11:46,900
one by one, the warriors are released to 
carry on with their mission

105
00:11:54,500 --> 00:11:57,100
Round parachutes continue to open as soon 
more troops disembark

106
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:02,000
from the port and starboard doors of the 
aircraft in a twin exit jump

107
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,100
Very critical seconds

108
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,000
At this moment, every trooper need to stay 
focused and keep himself together

109
00:12:16,100 --> 00:12:20,900
In less than 60 seconds, they must land safely

110
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,800
Each jumper face the risk of the chute not 
opening correctly

111
00:12:25,900 --> 00:12:33,000
either twisted or knotted if they exited 
the aircraft without following proper procedures 
that they trained for

112
00:12:36,500 --> 00:12:46,900
As a paratrooper, Brig. Gen. Khairul Azmizal 
received his wings in 1995

113
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:17,000
As soon as they have landed, they proceed 
towards Gong Kedak, Terengganu

114
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:27,500
This is in preparation to receive the next 
unit known as Follow Up Para Battle Group, 
FUPBG

115
00:13:32,500 --> 00:13:38,000
Tactical air landed operation or TALO

116
00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:45,000
carries troops, weaponry, and vehicles to 
conflict zones tactically

117
00:13:45,100 --> 00:13:48,500
without the aircraft's engines shutting off 
on landing

118
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,000
so they would be ready to take off again 
immediately

119
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,300
Besides air dropping of troops

120
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:10,200
logistical support is also dropped

121
00:14:10,300 --> 00:14:15,500
such as the container delivery system and 
heavy equipment

122
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Large sized cargo canopies are used to drop 
machinery or materiel

123
00:14:24,100 --> 00:14:28,000
that weigh in excess of 15,000 kilograms

124
00:14:28,100 --> 00:14:34,000
The cooperation between the Army and the 
RMAF strengthens the expertise of and competency 
of the troops

125
00:14:34,100 --> 00:14:39,500
and the capability of assets for the defense 
of the nation

126
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:45,000
[General] 10th Para Brigade is really combined 
arms by design

127
00:14:45,100 --> 00:14:48,500
So in this context we have assault teams

128
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,500
we have combat support teams, we have combat 
service support

129
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:55,400
that are self contained which means that 
10th Para Brigade can be deployed

130
00:14:55,500 --> 00:15:02,000
as a standalone unit because all those assets 
are under direct command of the commander 
of 10th Para

131
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,000
Kompeni Pandura Para (Pathfinder Company 
Para)

132
00:15:30,100 --> 00:15:34,000
Special operations unit within 10th Para 
Brigade

133
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,500
A highly trained combat element capable of 
any operation

134
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:45,400
deployed on missions on land, sea, and air

135
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:56,000
[General] As the troops responsible for inserting 
behind enemy lines

136
00:15:56,100 --> 00:16:03,500
they are very much exposed to risk where 
anything can happen

137
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:10,000
[Narrator] The organization of the Pathfinder 
team is divided to reconnaissance and sniper 
teams

138
00:16:10,100 --> 00:16:14,900
that maneuver in pairs and in small teams

139
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,500
[General] They train hard

140
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:30,400
the level and intensity of the training

141
00:16:30,500 --> 00:16:34,500
is much, much higher compared to the rest 
of the troopers in 10th Para Brigade

142
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:39,000
The idea is to turn them into battle hardened 
soldiers

143
00:16:39,100 --> 00:16:43,900
Tough and able to be maneuvered at a moment's 
notice

144
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,000
Anywhere in any condition

145
00:16:47,100 --> 00:16:49,500
But the most important thing is that they 
must not fail

146
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:56,000
because they are such valuable assets

147
00:16:56,100 --> 00:16:58,500
to the 10th Para Brigade

148
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:05,000
and crucial to the success of the mission 
undertaken by the brigade

149
00:17:12,100 --> 00:17:14,100
[Narrator] Pandura troops must possess a 
high level

150
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,000
of physical and mental endurance

151
00:17:16,100 --> 00:17:18,000
and a strong resolve

152
00:17:18,100 --> 00:17:22,900
flexible and agile if were to be deployed 
to

153
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,000
anywhere that they are needed

154
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,000
It was my own to choice join the military

155
00:17:32,100 --> 00:17:36,900
Firstly, I have always been interested because 
it is like an extreme sport

156
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,000
I have always like things like this

157
00:17:39,100 --> 00:17:42,000
especially as it involves mud, that's my 
thing

158
00:17:42,100 --> 00:17:44,500
out in the country or anywhere else, there 
is mud

159
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,000
if there is mud, I'll be there

160
00:17:47,100 --> 00:17:49,500
I entered the Royal Malay Regiment

161
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:54,400
six months, seven months in, I manage to 
join the Pathfinder Company

162
00:18:00,900 --> 00:18:04,500
The success of each mission depends

163
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,000
on the perfect execution of the tactical 
insertion

164
00:18:07,100 --> 00:18:08,500
of the pathfinder team

165
00:18:16,500 --> 00:18:19,000
For us in Pandura

166
00:18:19,100 --> 00:18:21,100
we do our best when under stress

167
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,500
It's not like we want to show off

168
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,500
But when under stress, that is when we could 
think

169
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,500
because no matter what, it's not something 
that straightfoward

170
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:33,000
Everything involves stress

171
00:18:33,100 --> 00:18:37,000
This is why we need to have integrity and 
willingness for knowledge

172
00:18:37,100 --> 00:18:40,000
Because no matter what happens, no matter 
what situation we're in

173
00:18:40,100 --> 00:18:44,500
we are the Pathfinder team, the eyes of the 
10th Para Brigade

174
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,000
and we are responsible for the brigade

175
00:18:48,100 --> 00:18:49,000
[Narrator] The sniper team

176
00:18:49,100 --> 00:18:55,300
the backbone for keeping their teammates 
safe for the length of the operation, deployment, 
or mission

177
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,500
They perform their roles during stalking

178
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:04,000
and providing fire support on either a human 
target or whatever object

179
00:19:04,100 --> 00:19:06,500
from a well hidden position

180
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:14,500
[General] It is not possible to produce a 
superb Pandura trooper

181
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,500
in a short period of time

182
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:21,200
We do a selection at a brigade level

183
00:19:21,300 --> 00:19:26,100
Not every trooper who serves in the brigade 
is suitable

184
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,500
to become part of the Pathfinder team

185
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:33,400
The main elements such as fighting skills

186
00:19:33,500 --> 00:19:35,500
Physical fitness, mental toughness

187
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,500
as a whole in terms of overall competency

188
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,100
which should reach at the highest level

189
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:46,000
that we think would adequately fulfill the 
role and tasks

190
00:19:46,100 --> 00:19:50,900
in the Pathfinder Company as the ears and 
eyes to the main brigade

191
00:19:54,300 --> 00:19:56,100
[Narrator] Combat drifting technique

192
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,500
A method of tactical infiltration into enemy 
territory

193
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,000
via a river at night

194
00:20:02,100 --> 00:20:04,400
Equipped with weapons and tactical equipment

195
00:20:04,500 --> 00:20:09,500
and optronic assets such as night vision, 
NVG

196
00:20:18,500 --> 00:20:21,000
Using a log as a floatation device

197
00:20:21,100 --> 00:20:25,000
they must ensure that their infiltration 
and any action

198
00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:27,000
are not detected by the enemy

199
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:35,000
Strong currents and a dark night are some 
of the challenges that must be overcome

200
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:41,000
In a jump, to say that we're afraid

201
00:20:41,100 --> 00:20:44,000
of course, we're afraid

202
00:20:44,100 --> 00:20:46,000
But we can't say we don't want to do it

203
00:20:46,100 --> 00:20:48,000
because it is our job and responsibility, 
that's what we are beholden to

204
00:20:48,100 --> 00:20:51,000
and that is what we signed up for as people 
in the military

205
00:20:51,100 --> 00:20:55,000
No matter what, that is the challenge we 
must face

206
00:20:55,100 --> 00:20:59,900
I actually had vertigo during the static 
line jumps

207
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:04,800
and then I converted to freefall jumps, no 
problem for me

208
00:21:04,900 --> 00:21:09,700
Because that first static line jump was a 
learning moment for me

209
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,500
on how I would build up my confidence

210
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:19,500
from the aspect of physical and mental resolve 
under stress

211
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:24,400
We need to adapt to the situation

212
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,100
An experience that I can't forget

213
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,000
was Ops Daulat [Lahad Datu standoff]

214
00:21:39,100 --> 00:21:43,900
It left an impression on me because of the 
team's confidence

215
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:49,000
in sending me into a mission when I was only 
in for two years

216
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,000
We were sent in to recon enemy territory

217
00:21:55,100 --> 00:21:59,900
when we were only 80 to 90 meters away from 
contact

218
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,000
from the enemy's sniping position

219
00:22:03,100 --> 00:22:07,900
to me, that was a massive challenge

220
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:18,000
However, with training that is motivating 
and done with conviction

221
00:22:18,100 --> 00:22:21,500
with the stress that we were trained for

222
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:27,000
that is what enables us to perform our mission 
and guides our decisions

223
00:22:34,500 --> 00:22:36,500
[Soldier] Sniper stress training

224
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:37,490
-Are you ready?

-Ready, sir!

225
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,000
Hit!

226
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:57,000
[General] All of their training like combat 
freefall at night

227
00:22:57,100 --> 00:23:00,000
Infiltration and insertion by water

228
00:23:00,100 --> 00:23:07,000
Insertion using air assets

229
00:23:07,100 --> 00:23:08,900
using naval assets

230
00:23:09,100 --> 00:23:17,000
And they must master any form of insertion

231
00:23:17,100 --> 00:23:20,000
for them to be able to do their jobs

232
00:23:20,100 --> 00:23:25,000
because we can't dictate what kind of insertion 
to be used

233
00:23:25,100 --> 00:23:31,000
as it depends so much on the requirements 
of the mission and situation at hand

234
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,000
Despite facing a great risk to themselves

235
00:23:37,100 --> 00:23:40,000
the resolve of the Pandura troopers remains 
unbroken

236
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,000
to complete their mission that has been assigned 
to them

237
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,200
I don't know anybody else who, like me

238
00:23:55,300 --> 00:24:00,100
after joining the Pathfinders, would leave 
to any other unit

239
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:05,000
Because I heard a lot from other pathfinders 
that

240
00:24:05,100 --> 00:24:09,900
if you're going to be in any Royal Malay 
unit, join the Pathfinders

241
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:14,800
I received so much dedication from the old 
guys, from the officers

242
00:24:14,900 --> 00:24:20,100
to train a trooper, being a private is not 
an excuse

243
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,000
Because we see no difference to being an 
officer or a rank and file trooper

244
00:24:23,100 --> 00:24:27,000
Knowledge should not be limited to only pathfinders

245
00:24:27,100 --> 00:24:31,900
and we would actually share our knowledge 
when training with other units

246
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:44,000
we believe that is our responsibility to 
point out things that are wrong

247
00:24:44,100 --> 00:24:48,000
we have to because it's my job

248
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,000
The capabilities of the Rapid Deployment 
Force 10th Para Brigade

249
00:25:05,100 --> 00:25:07,000
cannot be understated

250
00:25:16,100 --> 00:25:20,000
The high readiness level demonstrated in 
the Para Predator Exercise

251
00:25:20,100 --> 00:25:24,800
have also attracted the attention of the 
Prime Minister Dato' Seri Ismail Sabri Yaacob

252
00:25:24,900 --> 00:25:28,000
who attended the opening ceremony of the 
Para Predator Exercise

253
00:25:28,100 --> 00:25:34,500
He is accompanied by the Chief of Defence 
Forces, General Tan Sri Affendi Buang, RMAF

254
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:39,400
and the Chief of the Army, General Tan Sri 
Zamrose Mohd Zain

255
00:25:39,500 --> 00:25:41,000
near Bera, Pahang

256
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,000
As the Malaysia Armed Forces' Rapid Deployment 
Force

257
00:25:52,100 --> 00:25:56,500
the competency of the combat element, the 
combat support element, and the support service 
element

258
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,000
are not only tested at the trooper level

259
00:25:58,100 --> 00:26:05,000
but also involve the capabilities and readiness 
of of all the brigade's assets

260
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,000
Known as the airborne gunners

261
00:26:14,100 --> 00:26:19,500
The 1st Royal Artillery Regiment (Para)is 
an important support element

262
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,000
in the organization of the 10th Para Brigade

263
00:26:22,100 --> 00:26:29,000
The LG1 Mk III 105 mm howitzer has just entered 
service

264
00:26:29,100 --> 00:26:32,000
on October of 2021

265
00:26:32,100 --> 00:26:38,000
Served by five artillery crewmembers, it 
can be fired at a range of up to 17 kilometers

266
00:26:38,100 --> 00:26:42,000
with the rate of fire of 12 shells a minute

267
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,000
Being the elite unit of the Army

268
00:27:03,100 --> 00:27:06,000
with an unbreakable physical and mental resolve

269
00:27:06,100 --> 00:27:10,900
the 10th Para Brigade is also capable of 
Assault River Crossing operations

270
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:20,000
This is done to open a path for the combat 
element to advance into enemy territory

271
00:27:20,100 --> 00:27:26,000
if bridges are destroyed or an alternative 
route is required

272
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:44,000
The combat support company of the 10th Para 
known as Tank Buster

273
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:47,000
is able to provide fire support during assaults

274
00:27:47,100 --> 00:27:51,000
defense, and withdrawals, and light anti-aircraft 
support

275
00:27:55,500 --> 00:27:59,000
This element provides effective anti-armor 
support

276
00:27:59,100 --> 00:28:03,000
to the rapid deployment force of 10th Para 
Brigade

277
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,000
The para support company have mobility assets

278
00:28:11,100 --> 00:28:14,000
that are capable of maximized rapid deployment

279
00:28:14,100 --> 00:28:17,000
to gain superiority in the area of operation

280
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,000
The anti-armor support element's

281
00:28:26,500 --> 00:28:30,900
URO VAMTAC S3 light mobility vehicles

282
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:35,500
can be driven at speeds of 135 kilometers 
per hour [85 mph]

283
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,000
This high mobility tactical vehicle

284
00:28:40,100 --> 00:28:42,500
can provide medium range fire support

285
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,000
and defend against enemy armored vehicles

286
00:28:50,900 --> 00:28:59,000
The support element using the URO VAMTAC 
S3 have a variety of weapons at that disposal

287
00:28:59,100 --> 00:29:02,000
such as heavy machine guns, HMG

288
00:29:02,100 --> 00:29:05,000
automatic grenade launchers, AGL

289
00:29:05,100 --> 00:29:07,500
and anti tank guided weapons

290
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,000
Each vehicle carries a crew of four

291
00:29:12,100 --> 00:29:16,500
a vehicle commander, driver, gunner, and 
loader/assistant gunner

292
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,000
In this training exercise,

293
00:29:27,100 --> 00:29:32,600
wounded troopers are brought to the forward 
surgical team, FST

294
00:29:32,700 --> 00:29:38,000
using an Agusta helicopter from the Malaysian 
Army Aviation, PUTD

295
00:29:38,100 --> 00:29:42,900
Regardless of whether the nation is facing 
the Covid-19 pandemic

296
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,000
training exercises are still held

297
00:29:46,100 --> 00:29:50,900
Adherence to isolation protocols before and 
after the exercise

298
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:56,000
including absolutely no face to face contact 
with the public during the exercise

299
00:29:56,100 --> 00:29:58,500
has been successful with a high levels of 
discipline

300
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,000
and with strong leadership from each commander

301
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,000
[General] Our philosophy is that we believe 
that

302
00:30:05,100 --> 00:30:09,000
the more systematic and the more difficult 
the exercise

303
00:30:09,100 --> 00:30:13,500
would yield more competent troops

304
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,000
in their respective roles and tasks

305
00:30:16,100 --> 00:30:25,000
but in this context due the high level and 
high intensity of the exercise

306
00:30:25,100 --> 00:30:29,900
there are still risks of accidents

307
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,800
and other such incidents but we strive to 
maintain safety

308
00:30:34,900 --> 00:30:38,000
and the wellbeing of the troops

309
00:30:38,100 --> 00:30:42,500
We take all those into account before they 
can execute the exercise

310
00:30:52,500 --> 00:30:56,000
Every exercise, deployment, or operation

311
00:30:56,100 --> 00:31:00,500
are not immune to the risks of accidents 
and injuries

312
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,500
The Forward Surgical Team is responsible

313
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,700
for providing medical treatment and first 
aid support

314
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,500
for these combat troops

315
00:31:20,100 --> 00:31:26,200
[Doctor] All right, we have a head injury 
and to the leg. Bring him inside

316
00:31:37,500 --> 00:31:42,500
The FST team or Forward Surgical Team have 
been deployed

317
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:47,400
to provide medical services that covers handling 
casualties

318
00:31:47,500 --> 00:31:50,500
minor surgeries, and also pharmacy

319
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:57,000
[Doctor] So, the FST is able to operate like 
a level two hospital

320
00:31:57,100 --> 00:32:02,000
which is quite a large hospital that have 
surgical facilities

321
00:32:02,100 --> 00:32:07,000
and anesthesia if we are to be deployed on 
a much larger scale

322
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:32,600
[Doctor VO] This exercise is required, for 
example in the Para Predator exercise

323
00:32:32,700 --> 00:32:36,000
for us to able to assess our FST

324
00:32:36,100 --> 00:32:40,000
with all the equipment and personnel and 
whether or not they are adequate

325
00:32:40,100 --> 00:32:42,000
If there is no such exercise we wouldn't 
know

326
00:32:42,100 --> 00:32:48,000
what improvements we can make and what weaknesses 
we have

327
00:32:48,100 --> 00:32:52,500
if we were to be activated in a state of 
war

328
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,000
or in a real situation, maybe won't be able 
to act

329
00:32:56,100 --> 00:32:59,000
if we don't conduct a training exercise like 
this.

330
00:32:59,100 --> 00:33:01,000
[Doctor] Now, call the X-ray technician

331
00:33:01,100 --> 00:33:03,500
The patient is now stable and if he seems 
fine

332
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:07,000
we will bring the patient to observation

333
00:33:07,100 --> 00:33:10,000
as we wait for the X-ray

334
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:21,500
[Narrator] To ensure the integrity of the 
unit, continuation of the mission, and readiness

335
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,000
the Maroon Berets will maintain at the top 
level

336
00:33:25,100 --> 00:33:28,000
comparable with the world's most elite units

337
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,000
[General] As the Commander of the 10th Para 
Brigade

338
00:33:37,100 --> 00:33:43,000
my first priority is to maintain the preparedness 
of the brigade

339
00:33:43,100 --> 00:33:46,000
so that we can be deployed at the highest 
level of readiness

340
00:33:46,100 --> 00:33:50,900
That I cannot compromise

341
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:55,800
In order for us to see whether our readiness 
is at the highest level

342
00:33:55,900 --> 00:34:02,000
training is one of the most important elements 
in maintaining that level of readiness

343
00:34:02,100 --> 00:34:07,000
This is because we just don't know when we 
would need to be deployed

344
00:34:07,100 --> 00:34:11,900
We never know what will happen tomorrow to 
the country

345
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,400
This kind of exercise is what will make the 
difference between life and death

346
00:34:16,500 --> 00:34:19,000
when we are to be deployed for a real situation

347
00:34:19,100 --> 00:34:23,500
I shall hold on to that responsibility with 
all my being

348
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:32,000
only the last drop of blood will stop us 
from making sure our troops are always prepared

349
00:34:52,900 --> 00:34:55,000
[Narrator]The team of bleeding wings

350
00:34:55,100 --> 00:34:58,000
with an unbreakable fighting spirit

351
00:34:58,100 --> 00:35:00,500
will continue to march forward

352
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,500
for the sake of the responsibility assigned 
to them

353
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:08,000
there is no mission too difficult and no 
sacrifrice too great

354
00:35:08,100 --> 00:35:10,500
they will work towards perfection
