Skyhawk Saga

Under the Perista scheme, the Malaysian government purchased a mixture of 88 A-4C and A-4Ls from the United States. These aircraft were refurbished by Grumman Aerospace in the U.S and redesignated the A-4 PTM or Peculiar to Malaysia. A total of 40 odd aircraft made its way from the states to Malaysia in the eighties to fly with 6 and 9 squadrons of the RMAF. The main role was ground attack and support flight.
