Malaysian aerospace business with the murderous Myanmar military exposed | Justice For Myanmar 10/20/26, 11:27 AM structural repairs. Notably, the company markets its expertise in ATR aircraft. As Justice For Myanmar has previously exposed, the Myanmar military relies extensively on ATR aircraft to transport troops and weapons for its combat operations, and for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. The ATR aircraft in the fleet of the Myanmar Air Force have been supplied by Myanmar arms brokers and commercial airlines, including the junta-controlled Myanmar National Airlines (MNA) and the 24 Hour Group-owned Mingalar Aviation (formerly Air KBZ). These companies and Mingalar Aviation’s sister company, MAI, also ensure the airworthiness of the air force’s ATR and Airbus fleet by supporting maintenance, repair and overhaul. Documents from a junta commerce ministry data leak reveal that between September 2025 and January 2026, MNA, Mingalar Aviation and MAI sought export approval to send aircraft parts to Skyways Technics in Malaysia for repair or exchange. Commercially available trade data also lists consignments of ATR aircraft parts from Skyways Technics Asia to MNA in 2022 to 2025, and to Mingalar Aviation in 2024 and 2025.
