Can anyone help ID the 'wings' on the right; at the very bottom. The rest are Malaysian but I'm not sure about this one; as well as the one in the centre with the bright yellow wings.

The one in the bottom centre with bright yellow wings looks the same shape as those issued to 3 Bn Royal Australian Regiment when they were in the airborne role (1983-2011), which itself was a reactivation of the design used by Australia during World War Two.

Could it Malaysian issue for those qualified by jumping with the Australians? (Doesn’t look Aussie issue to me, but I might be wrong....)

Thanks Collin. That was helpful.

It's possible that a Malaysian who jumped with Aussie paras in Australia or who trained with them had; in addition to the wings he was presented with; another set of wings produced locally when he got home.

The one with the brighter yellow wings in the center at the bottom is a Malaysian made wing for the Malaysian armed forces for their members who had a training at 3RAR.
The one on the bottom right is Malaysian air force worn 1995-1999, just like the second one on the left (same shape).
