The Malaysian Armed Forces and the Defence Ministry are offering conflicting dates on the delivery of the littoral combat ships (LCS) to the navy.
During an interview with several media organisations on Tuesday, Armed Forces chief Affendi Buang said five of the six LCS were scheduled for delivery in January 2026, September 2026, May 2027, January 2028, and September 2028.
However, several major news organisations have withdrawn the online versions of their report on Affendi's interview.
The timeline offered by Affendi was different from that stated by Defence Minister Hishammuddin Hussein last month.
On Aug 6, the defence minister told the Dewan Negara that the first LCS would be delivered "in two years".
