The SSRNVR was formed to assist the <a href="/wiki/Royal_Navy" title="Royal Navy">Royal Navy</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Singapore" class="mw-redirect" title="Battle of Singapore">defence of Singapore</a>, upon which the defence of the <a href="/wiki/Malay_Peninsula" title="Malay Peninsula">Malay Peninsula</a> was based. Also behind its formation were political developments in Asia, particularly the rise of a Japan that was <a href="/wiki/Greater_East_Asia_Co-Prosperity_Sphere" title="Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere">increasingly assertive in Asia</a>. In 1938, the SSRNVR was expanded with a branch in <a href="/wiki/Penang" title="Penang">Penang</a>. On 18 January 1935, the <a href="/wiki/British_Admiralty" class="mw-redirect" title="British Admiralty">British Admiralty</a> presented Singapore with an <a href="/wiki/Acacia-class_sloop" title="Acacia-class sloop"><i>Acacia</i>-class</a> sloop, <a href="/wiki/HMS_Laburnum_(1915)" title="HMS Laburnum (1915)">HMS <i>Laburnum</i></a>, to serve as the Reserve's Headquarters and drill ship. It was berthed at the Telok Ayer Basin. HMS <i>Laburnum</i> was sunk in February 1942, prior to the capitulation of Singapore at the beginning of <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">Second World War</a> activities in the Pacific. </p><p>With the outbreak of the Second World War in Europe, the SSRNVR increased the recruitment of mainly indigenous personnel into the force, to beef up local defences as Royal Navy resources were required in Europe. Members of the SSRNVR were called up to active duty and the force was augmented by members of the Royal Navy Malay Section. This formed the basis of the navy in Malaya, called the Malay Navy, manned by indigenous <a href="/wiki/Ethnic_Malays" class="mw-redirect" title="Ethnic Malays">Malay</a> personnel. (Similarly, the Malays were recruited into the fledgling <a href="/wiki/Royal_Malay_Regiment" title="Royal Malay Regiment">Malay Regiment</a> formed in 1936). The Malay Navy had a strength of 400 men who received their training at HMS Pelandok, the Royal Navy training establishment in Malaya. Recruitment was increased and in 1941 at the outbreak of the war in Asia, the Malay Navy had a strength of 1,450 men. Throughout the Second World War, the Malay Navy served with the Allied Forces in the Indian and Pacific theatre of operations. When the war ended with the <a href="/wiki/Surrender_of_Japan" title="Surrender of Japan">Japanese Surrender</a> in 1945, only 600 personnel of the Malay Navy reported for muster. Post war economic constraints saw the disbandment of the Malay Navy in 1947. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="After_world_war_II_–_Formation_of_the_Malayan_Naval_Force"><span id="After_world_war_II_.E2.80.93_Formation_of_the_Malayan_Naval_Force"></span>After world war II – Formation of the Malayan Naval Force</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Royal_Malaysian_Navy&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: After world war II – Formation of the Malayan Naval Force"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:HMS_Loch_Insh_1944_IWM_FL_14742.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/HMS_Loch_Insh_1944_IWM_FL_14742.jpg/220px-HMS_Loch_Insh_1944_IWM_FL_14742.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="164" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/HMS_Loch_Insh_1944_IWM_FL_14742.jpg/330px-HMS_Loch_Insh_1944_IWM_FL_14742.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/HMS_Loch_Insh_1944_IWM_FL_14742.jpg/440px-HMS_Loch_Insh_1944_IWM_FL_14742.jpg 2x" data-file-width="800" data-file-height="597" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/HMS_Loch_Insh_(K433)" class="mw-redirect" title="HMS Loch Insh (K433)">HMS <i>Loch Insh</i></a>, which later became Malaysia's flagship</figcaption></figure> <p>The Malay Navy was reactivated on 24 December 1948 at the outbreak of the <a href="/wiki/Malayan_Emergency" title="Malayan Emergency">Malayan Emergency</a>, the communist-inspired insurgent war against the British colonial government.

Sabah</figcaption></figure> <p>The Royal Malaysian Navy's five naval stations were originally built on outlying atolls, with the most developed <a href="/wiki/Swallow_Reef" title="Swallow Reef">Station Lima</a> now expanded to a comfortably habitable naval station and also a popular diving spot in the region, in contrast with its harsh original conditions in 1983. On 21 June 1980 a claim plaque was erected on the island and three years later eighteen <a href="/wiki/PASKAL" title="PASKAL">PASKAL</a> men went ashore in May 1983 to build the first encampment while braving the elements. At the time, the only infrastructure available was a helipad for personnel transfer and the sailors had to camp under the open skies on the bare reef. When the naval station proper was constructed six years later with the construction of a small living-cum-operations quarters, it was also decided that the enlarged island the atoll had become would also be developed as a tourist attraction so that the tourism potential of the island could be exploited. </p><p>Thus by 1995, more buildings were added, including two air-conditioned accommodation blocks, an aircraft landing strip, two hangars, a radar station, an air traffic control tower, watchtowers and a jetty. The aviation facilities on the island allow the operation of <a href="/wiki/C130_Hercules" class="mw-redirect" title="C130 Hercules">C-130 Hercules</a> transport planes and <a href="/wiki/CASA/IPTN_CN-235" title="CASA/IPTN CN-235">CN-235</a> maritime patrol aircraft operated by the <a href="/wiki/Royal_Malaysian_Air_Force" title="Royal Malaysian Air Force">Royal Malaysian Air Force</a>. These facilities made the island a proper island station code-named Station Lima. Patrols by navy soldiers in <a href="/wiki/CB90-class_fast_assault_craft" title="CB90-class fast assault craft">CB90</a> attack boats and larger patrol vessels such as the <a href="/wiki/Kedah-class_offshore_patrol_vessel" title="Kedah-class offshore patrol vessel">Kedah-class offshore patrol vessels</a> are carried out around the island. The <a href="/wiki/Royal_Malaysian_Air_Force" title="Royal Malaysian Air Force">Royal Malaysian Air Force</a> also operate frequently on the airstrip. Several anti-ship and anti-aircraft guns are placed on several areas on the island and the RMAF personnel operate a <a href="/wiki/Starburst_(missile)" title="Starburst (missile)">Starburst</a> air defence system to prevent low-level air attacks. The rest of the stations were originally floating barge type habitat modules constructed on mainland Malaysia. Location selection and module positioning was done during high tide so that they could be more easily anchored during low tide and after found satisfactory, the modules were landed and filled in with cement and rocks to strengthen their anchorages. They are all also equipped with radar and ship docking facilities as well as water and power generation facilities. Soldiers are stationed on all stations. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Offshore_stations">Offshore stations</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Royal_Malaysian_Navy&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section: Offshore stations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>1983 Station Lima (<a href="/wiki/Swallow_Reef" title="Swallow Reef">Swallow Reef</a>)</li> <li>1986 Station Uniform (<a href="/wiki/Ardasier_Reef" title="Ardasier Reef">Ardasier Reef</a>)</li> <li>1986 Station Mike (<a href="/wiki/Mariveles_Reef" title="Mariveles Reef">Mariveles Reef</a>)</li> <li>1999 Station Sierra (<a href="/wiki/Erica_Reef" title="Erica Reef">Erica Reef</a>)</li> <li>1999 Station Papa (<a href="/wiki/Investigator_Shoal" title="Investigator Shoal">Investigator Shoal</a>)</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Special_forces">Special forces</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Royal_Malaysian_Navy&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section: Special forces"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/PASKAL" title="PASKAL">PASKAL</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Paskal2.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/Paskal2.jpg/220px-Paskal2.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/Paskal2.jpg/330px-Paskal2.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/Paskal2.jpg/440px-Paskal2.jpg 2x" data-file-width="640" data-file-height="480" /></a><figcaption>RMN Special Operations Force PASKAL</figcaption></figure> <p>The special forces of the RMN is known as PASKAL (Pasukan Khas Laut or Naval Special Warfare Forces).
