History

Rentaka first unveiled at the Defence Services Asia (DSA) 2022 exhibition held in Kuala Lumpur. It is named by the King of Malaysia, Sultan Abdullah at the vehicle's launch ceremony.[4] Mildef has designed and developed its Rentaka for military and paramilitary operations which is suitable for the uses of armed force and police.[5]

The Rentaka has a length of 6.2 meter, a width of 2.4 meter and a height of 2.5 meter. It is 8.8 tonnes in weight and powered by a 330 hp V8 turbo diesel engine. The vehicle equipped with one 12.7mm RCWS and can accommodate 10 personnel.
