Military unit
The
Royal Brunei Navy
,
abbrev
:
RBN
(
Malay
:
Tentera Laut Diraja Brunei
,
TLDB
) is the
naval
defence force of
Brunei Darussalam
. It is a small but relatively well-equipped
military
force whose main responsibility is to conduct
search and rescue
missions, and to deter and defend the Brunei waters against attack mounted by seaborne forces.
[5]
The forerunner of the Royal Brunei Navy was established on 14 June 1965
; 58 years ago
(
1965-06-14
)
, the second unit created after the formation of the
Royal Brunei Armed Forces
(RBAF). The RBN is based and headquartered at
Muara Naval Base
, 4
kilometres
(2
miles
) from
Muara Town
, with the majority of the
enlisted
sailors being Malays. Since 1977, the Royal Brunei Navy has been equipped with missile
gun boats
and other coastal
patrol craft
. All the
ships
names are prefixed KDB, as in
Kapal Diraja Brunei
(Royal Brunei Ship in
Malay
). Captain Haji Mohamad Sarif Pudin bin Matserudin has been acting commander of the Royal Brunei Navy since 30 December 2022
; 16 months ago
(
2022-12-30
)
,
[3]
succeeding First Admiral Pg Dato Seri Pahlawan Norazmi Pg Hj Muhammad who was appointed the RBN 12th commander on 13 March 2015
; 9 years ago
(

History

Early history
[
edit
]
The forerunner of the Royal Brunei Navy was formed on 14 June 1965
; 58 years ago
(
1965-06-14
)
, four years after the formation of the
Royal Brunei Malay Regiment
(
Askar Melayu Diraja Brunei
, AMDB). It was initially known as Boat Section of the Royal Brunei Armed Forces. Its manning strength was only eighteen personnel, including one
officer
from the First Battalion who had attended a basic
military
course in
Malaya
in 1961 until 1964.
[6]
This Boat Section was equipped with a number of
aluminium
boats, known as
Temuai
in
Malay
, and
fast assault boats
(FABs).
[6]
The role of the Boat Section was solely to provide transportation of
infantry
elements to the interior of Brunei. As the organisation expanded with the aid of stable economic growth, the Boat Section was renamed the Boat Company in 1966.
[6]
The Boat Company received three river
patrol boats
in 1966. These boats were named KDB
Bendahara
, KDB
Maharajalela
, and KDB
Kermaindera
. All the ships were crewed by
Bruneians
, led by a qualified
commanding officer
. In the same year, the strength of the Boat Company was enhanced with
hovercraft
vessels type
SR.N5
, followed by SR.N6 in 1968.
[7]
The first
fast patrol craft
was accepted in 1968 and named KDB
Pahlawan
. It became the first
flagship
for the Boat Company.
[7]
The Boat Company was reorganised as
Angkatan Laut Pertama, Askar Melayu DiRaja Brunei
(ALP AMDB) or the First Sea Battalion, Royal Brunei
Malay
Regiment in Malay. It was one of the larger branches of
Royal Brunei Malay Regiment
. During that time, the estimated strength of
Angkatan Laut Pertama, Askar Melayu DiRaja Brunei
was forty-two personnel, including an
officer
, while assets consisted of one fast patrol craft, three river
patrol boats
, two
hovercraft
vessels,
fast assault boats
, a few long boats, and
Temuai
(aluminium boats).
[8]
In 1971, the First Sea Battalion received two more
coastal patrol craft
, KDB
Saleha
and KDB
Masna
.
[9]
The First Sea Battalion was reorganised again on 1 October 1991
; 32 years ago
(
1991-10-01
)
, as the Royal Brunei Navy, due to the growth of the armed forces in Brunei after
independence
from the
United Kingdom
.
[10]
F2000 corvette dispute
[
edit
]
The Royal Brunei Navy aimed to undergo a large-scale modernisation, with the upgrading of the
Muara Naval Base
, and the purchase of three
British
-built
corvettes
from
BAE Systems Naval Ships
,
Scotland
. The ships were armed with
MBDA Exocet Block II
anti-ship missiles
and
MBDA Seawolf
surface-to-air missiles
. The contract was awarded to
GEC-Marconi
in 1995: the
Nakhoda Ragam class OPVs
were launched in January 2001, June 2001, and June 2002, at the then
BAE Systems Marine
yard at
Scotstoun
. These were completed but not delivered from BAE Systems Naval Ships in Scotstoun due to claims by the Royal Brunei Navy that the ships fail to meet the required specifications;
[11]
though opinion in the shipyard was that they were too complex for a small navy to operate.
[12]
The contract dispute became the subject of
arbitration
.
[13]
When the dispute was settled in favour of BAE Systems, the vessels were handed over to
Royal Brunei Technical Services
(RBTS) in June 2007.
[12]
In 2007, Brunei contracted the German
Lurssen
shipyard to find a new customer for the three ships, though by 2011 the vessels remained unsold and laid up at
Barrow-in-Furness
.
[14]
These ships were eventually purchased in 2013 by the
Indonesian Navy
for
£
380 million, or half of the original unit cost, and renamed
Bung Tomo-class corvettes
.
[15]
Present day
[
edit
]
Exercise SEAGULL 03-07 was held in Brunei from 2 to 10 September 2007, between the Royal Brunei Navy and their
Philippine Navy
counterparts. Participating ships include the Philippine Navy corvette
BRP
Rizal
(PS-74)
and patrol gunboat
BRP
Federico Martir
(PG-385)
, and Royal Brunei Navy ships KDB
Pejuang
P03, KDB
Seteria
P04, KDB
Perwira
P14, and KDB
Penyerang
P16. They conducted series of drills, including mine clearance, under-water operations,
replenishment at sea
, night encounter exercise, boarding exercise, and other naval tactical exercises.
[16]
In 2019, the Royal Brunei Navy unveiled the Singapore-based Force-21 manufactured
Digital Disruptive Pattern
(D2P) battle-dress uniform (BDU) in digital blue colours at the 58th anniversary celebration at the
Bolkiah Garrison
.
[17]
[18]
In April 2021, the RBN installed the Royal Brunei Navy Full Mission Bridge Simulator (RBN FMBS) to provide
synthetic training
for all sailors of the RBN.

[
edit

The administration of First Sea Battalion moved to a new base at Jalan Tanjong Pelumpong
Muara
in 1974. This base is now known as the
Muara Naval Base
. The Muara Naval Base serves as the headquarters of the Royal Brunei Navy. It was expanded in 1997 to include facilities to support three offshore support vessels.
[21]
Muara Naval Base is frequently visited by foreign warships, most notable are the frequent visits by British
Royal Navy
ships.
Persekutuan Pengakap Negara Brunei Darussalam
visits the Naval base sometimes too.
