In the frame of the LCS program, DCNS Malaysia hired in January 2016 a team of Malaysian engineers to train them on combat system integration. This is part of the massive effort by the Group to contribute to the construction of a local workforce able to ensure the execution of future naval programs in Malaysia. | |||
