1993

The RSAF introduced the Mistral missile system, boosting its low-level air defence capabilities with greater mobility and accuracy.

On 20 May 1993, four Super Pumas and 62 personnel were deployed to Cambodia to assist the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC) in conducting UN-mandated elections. This was the RSAF's first UN peacekeeping mission, which involved ferrying election officials and ballot boxes to the various polling sites and counting centres, providing transport for medical casualties, conducting aerial policing, and other tasks.
