1. Title: "The Pride of Brunei Skies: Hawker Siddeley HS748 Series 2A, AMDB-110 of Askar Melayu Diraja Brunei" 2.. This image showcases the Hawker Siddeley HS748 Series 2A, registration number AMDB-110, proudly serving in the Royal Brunei Malay Regiment Air Wing, Askar Melayu Diraja Brunei. The HS748, a versatile and reliable turboprop airliner, was manufactured by Hawker Siddeley, a British aerospace and engineering company, between 1960 and 1982. The Series 2A, a later variant of the HS748, was introduced in the late 1960s and featured several improvements, including increased fuel capacity, more powerful engines, and an extended fuselage. This particular aircraft, AMDB-110, is adorned with the distinctive livery of Askar Melayu Diraja Brunei, the Royal Malay Regiment of Brunei. The HS748 has been a mainstay of the Bruneian military aviation fleet since its acquisition in the 1970s. Its versatility and robust design have made it an essential asset for various roles, including transport, maritime patrol, and search and rescue missions. The aircraft's ability to operate from short, unpaved runways has been particularly valuable in Brunei's rural and remote areas. This photograph captures the HS748, AMDB-110, as it taxis along the tarmac, ready for its next mission. Its powerful engines emit a plume of smoke, while the sun casts an ethereal glow over the aircraft's wings and fuselage. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Hawker Siddeley HS748 in Brunei's military aviation history. 3.
