UK Trade and Investment for Defence and Security Organisation (UKTI DSO) senior spokesperson Adam Thomas said: "We want to see more Malaysian companies looking to the UK for future market[s].
"We have seen tremendous development in the industrial sector in defence and security and we see no reason why Malaysian companies should not be in the UK.
"If you do supply to our armed forces there would be a very, very good opportunity to supply to other armed forces around the world."
