History
Starting 2017, ATSC conducted heavy maintenance to the RMAF's Sukhoi Su-30MKM fleet

The company formed in 1994 under the agreement between Malaysian government and Russian State Corporation Rosvoorouzhenie (presently known as Rosoboronexport), and Moscow Aircraft Production Organisation (MAPO) (presently known as PJSC RAC 'MiG'). ATSC core business is to support Russian made aircraft in Malaysia especially Malaysian Armed Forces such as Mikoyan MiG-29 and Sukhoi Su-30.[2] Not just in Malaysia but ATSC also aims to be the hub in the region for the Russian made aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services.[3] ATSC consists of three divisions which is Sukhoi Technical Centre (STC), MiG Technical Centre (MTC) and Logistic Centre.[4]
