10th Squadron (Parachute), Royal Army Engineers Regiment
The 10th Squadron (Parachute), Royal Army Engineers Regiment (Abbr. : 10 SQN RAER (Para);  — 10 Skn RAJD (Para)) is a company-sized airborne sapper from the Malaysian Army's Royal Army Engineers Regiment. 10 SQN RAER (Para) has been a part of the 10th Parachute Brigade since 10 October 1994 and is tasked with providing engineering support to the brigade. All members of 10 SQN RAER (Para), as a part of the elite 10th Parachute Brigade, must be airborne trained and complete the Basic Rapid Deployment Force Course (Malaysian Army version of the UK's P Company). History

Formed as a Commando sapper 
On 1 April 1980, the Malaysian Army established the 10th Commando Engineer Squadron, Engineer Regiment under the bill KP/TD/RANCANG/4668 to provide combat engineering support to the 1st Malaysian Special Service Regiment (now known as the 21st Special Service Group, or Grup Gerak Khas — GGK). The squadron's original mission was similar to that of the British Army's 24 Commando Royal Engineers. During its initial formation, the squadron consisted of only three officers and ten sappers. The squadron eventually grew to 10 officers and 218 other ranks before being fully absorbed by the GGK on 1 December 1981. The squadron was renamed the 21st Engineering Squadron, Special Service Group, and was assigned to provide combat engineering support to all GGK units. Downgraded to a conventional field engineer 
The squadron was transferred from the GGK to the Malaysian Army's 3rd Division (3 DIV) on 1 October 1986. The squadron was renamed the 10th Engineering Squadron, Engineer Regiment. On 31 October 1989, the squadron was transferred again, this time to the Malaysian Army's 1st Division (1 DIV), and was relocated from the Terendak Camp in Malacca to the Penrissen Camp in Kuching. Reconstruct for an airborne sapper role 
The 10th Engineering Squadron was scheduled to be converted to an airborne sapper unit in the early 1990s. The squadron returned to Terendak Camp on 1 November 1992, along with other Malaysian Army existing and future airborne units. Under the bill KP/TD/JURUTERA/8416 Vol 1, the squadron was transferred to the 10th Strategic Brigade of the 11th Strategic Division (11 DIV STRA) and renamed the 10th Squadron (Parachute), Royal Army Engineers Regiment in January 1993. Reassemble as the Rapid Deployment Force 

After Exercise Halilintar in Langkawi on 10 October 1994, then-Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad officially introduced the world to the new Malaysian Rapid Deployment Force, which included the 10 SQN RAER (Para) and other airborne units. The 10th Strategic Brigade was renamed the 10th Parachute Brigade on that day, and it became an independent military unit in the Malaysian Army, reporting directly to the Chief of the Army. Role and responsibilities 
The role and responsibilities of the 10 SQN RAER (Para) are similar to those of other squadrons in the Royal Army Engineers Regiment, but because they are airborne trained, they can conduct airborne and air assault operations. Their mission is similar to that of the British Army's 9 Parachute Squadron RE. Aside from that, they were tasked with rescuing and retrieving members of the 10th Parachute Brigade who had landed on the sea during static or free fall parachute exercises. Together with the Pathfinder Company (Parachute), they must also supervise and maintain the 10th Parachute Brigade's shooting range. In the media
