Is it just me, or this plane is essentially a rebranded n 212i minus cargo ramp with better avionics and engines

Oh c'mooon... you gotta be fair. The cockpit windows looks so different, the nose looks rounded, there 2 side doors at the cockpit, the windows are larger and rounded-square, the main landing gear has wider traction, and the main fuselage is a bit rounded. Unlike the fuselage of the 212 which has hard 90 degrees angle like spongebob's squarepants.

How come no one ever say that Airbus 340 is a rebranding of Boeing 707? Because the fact of the matter is A340 was built from the success of B707.

Tidak perlu sedikit2 menyalahkan pihak asing, tidak ada urgensinya bagi mereka untuk menggagalkan proyek2 tsb.

The problem is simple...we fail to pay for both projects. That's all

Bukan nyalahin siapa2x. Ane cuma bilang aja.

Japan is laying the groundwork for defence and security sales across Southeast Asia through efforts to secure inter-government defence equipment and technology agreements with regional countries, a senior official from the Japanese Ministry of Defense’s Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics Agency (ATLA) told Jane’s on 8 November.

Speaking at the Defence & Security 2017 show in Bangkok, Hideharu Yoshio, the deputy director of ATLA’s equipment policy department, said Japan has already signed such an agreement with the Philippines and that ATLA is currently “in discussion” with other regional countries – including Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand – about entering similar accords. These are expected to be secured soon, he said.

Jakarta, CNN Indonesia -- Upaya pemerintah membeli pesawat tempur Sukhoi SU-35 dari Rusia semakin dekat. Kementerian Pertahanan (Kemhan) memastikan pesawat Sukhoi telah sesuai kebutuhan TNI AU.

Kepala Pusat Komunikasi Publik Kemhan Brigjen TNI Totok Sugiharto, menuturkan proses pengadaan Sukhoi tinggal menunggu penandatanganan kontrak antara Indonesia dengan Rusia.

"Insya Allah (November)," ujar Totok lewat pesan singkat kepada CNNIndonesia.com, Rabu (8/11).

Totok mengatakan, pengadaan pesawat tempur Sukhoi SU-35 sesuai dengan spesifikasi teknis yang diajukan TNI Angkatan Udara.

"Sesuai spektek (spesifikasi teknis) TNI AU," kata Totok.

Namun, Totok enggan menjelaskan secara rinci spektek yang diajukan TNI AU.

Kepala Staf TNI Angkatan Udara (KSAU) Marsekal TNI Hadi Tjahjanto hanya mengatakan spektek telah diajukan TNI AU kepada Kemhan lewat Tim Evaluasi Pengadaan (TEP) Kemhan.

"Spektek diajukan berjenjang dan melalui TEP di Kemhan," ucap Hadi.

Dalam keterangan tertulis yang diterima CNN Indonesia, 31 Oktober silam, Panglima TNI Jenderal TNI Gatot Nurmantyo mengatakan TNI akan membeli 11 Pesawat Tempur Sukhoi SU-35. Pesawat yang akan dibeli sesuai dengan persyaratan yang diajukan TNI AU untuk memperkuat Pertahanan Udara Nasional.

"Apabila pesawat Sukhoi yang datang tidak sesuai dengan spek yang diminta oleh KSAU, maka saya perintahkan untuk dibatalkan, kalau diterima berarti saya dan KSAU melaksanakan Insubordinasi kepada Presiden RI Joko Widodo," kata Gatot.

Kata Gatot, TNI telah mengirimkan surat kepada Kementerian Pertahanan RI dengan tembusan Presiden Joko Widodo.

"Dalam rapat terbatas, Presiden RI sudah memerintahkan agar pesawat tempur yang dibeli adalah Pesawat Sukhoi SU-35 yang siap tempur," katanya.

Gatot mengatakan, spek Pesawat Sukhoi SU-35 yang diajukan KSAU, sudah siap tempur antara lain dilengkapi persenjataan Air to Air Missile, Air To Ground Missile, Bomb, Ground Suport Equipment, Simulator, Spare Part termasuk mesin cadangan.

"Semoga 11 Pesawat Sukhoi yang akan datang sudah dilengkapi sesuai dengan persenjataan yang butuhkan TNI AU, hal ini yang menjadi motivasi TNI dalam membeli pesawat tempur dari Rusia," kata Gatot.

Pembelian 11 pesawat Sukhoi SU-35 rencananya akan menggunakan skema imbal dagang. Agustus silam, Indonesia telah menandatangani nota kesepahaman dengan BUMN Rusia, Rostec.

Nantinya pesawat Sukhoi akan ditukar dengan sejumlah produk ekspor Indonesia mulai dari kopi, teh hingga minyak kelapa sawit.

South Korean President Moon Eager To Develop Closer Ties With RI, ASEAN – OpEd

South Korea’s popular President Moon Jae-in is currently on a three-day visit (from Nov. 8 to 10) to Jakarta to strengthen the fast growing strategic ties between Indonesia and South Korea.

Indonesia, a G20 economy, has always figured high in Korea’s foreign policy.

“Our president likes Indonesia and ASEAN very much. Since he became president of Korea on May 10, President Moon only visited the US in June. Now he is visiting Indonesia, the first country in Asia and the second country in the world to visit. This shows how Indonesia is important for us,” South Korean Ambassador to Indonesia Cho Tae-young said last week in Jakarta.

Echoing a similar view, a senior Korean official said in Seoul that Moon would be visiting Indonesia, Vietnam and the Philippines with the main aim of developing diplomatic ties with all 10 ASEAN member states on one side and partly garnering support for his country’s efforts to put pressure on North Korea over the issue of nuclear weapons.

“President Moon reaffirmed that his country would develop its relations with Indonesia and other ASEAN member countries to the level of relations with the four world powers,” presidential office press secretary Yoon Young-chan said in Seoul.

Yoon was referring to the United States, Japan, China and Russia as the world’s four major powers.

It will be, according to Ambassador Cho, Moon’s first visit to the ASEAN region.

During his historic visit to Indonesia, Moon held bilateral talks with Indonesian President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo, several senior officials and businesspeople, and witnessed the signing of various memorandums of understanding to foster the friendship and economic cooperation between the two countries.

One might ask, why Indonesia first?

With its vast natural resources, a population of 260 million, Indonesia is a perfect place for Korean investment and products. Indonesia sees Korea as a reliable strategic partner because the latter does not have global geopolitical ambitions like China, Japan or the US. This goes down very well.

As a proof of this perception, Indonesia, the largest economy in Southeast Asia, and South Korea – one of Asia’s economic powerhouses – signed a joint declaration of strategic partnership in 2006.

According to the Export-Import Bank of Korea, Korea’s cumulative investments in Indonesia have reached almost US$15 billion since 1968.

During the last three decades, hundreds of Korean companies have flocked to Indonesia to establish labor-intensive companies.

“Now we have around 2,200 Korean companies operating in Indonesia. These companies are providing jobs to 1 million Indonesian workers,” Cho said.

Around 40,000 Indonesian workers are currently working in Korea.

In trade also, Korea is one of the top-10 trading partners, with bilateral trade between Korea and Indonesia hitting $14 billion in 2016.

Indonesia, usually, enjoys a large trade surplus with South Korea, thanks to the export of natural resources including gas, timber and coal.

In the defense sector also, Indonesia recently bought three diesel-electric attack submarines from Korea. Indonesia and Korea also have been working on jointly producing a new generation of KFX fighter jets.

There was an incident in August in which President Moon made a gesture that surprised many in both Indonesia and Korea.

“In August, our President was having a vacation in Jinhae At that time Indonesian Defense Minister Ryacudu Ramizard was visiting Jinhae. President Moon took a break from his vacation to meet Ryacudu in Jinhae,” Cho said.

Jinhae is a Korean naval base cum vacation spot, which is located 410 kilometers from Seoul.

A true friend thinks of you when all others are thinking of themselves. South Korea is not only a true friend of Indonesia, the world’s fourth-most populous country, but also an important strategic partner.

In 1997-1998, when the Asian financial crisis devastated Indonesia’s economy and lacerated its sociopolitical set up, many foreign investors fled Indonesia in panic. As a true friend, South Korea — which was also a victim of the 1997 crisis — never left Indonesia and even increased its investments in labor- intensive industries during those difficult times.

Ever since the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1966 — followed by ambassadorial level in 1973 — Indonesia and South Korea have enjoyed more than five decades of uninterrupted progress in their political, economic, security and cultural relationship.

In the people-to-people contacts, the relations between the two countries have been growing by leaps and bounds, thanks to Korea’s famous hallyu (K-Pop wave) and tourism.

For example, according to Cho, more than 316,000 Korean tourists visited Indonesia, mainly Bali, Lombok and Jakarta in 2016 while more than 30,000 Indonesians visited Korea at the same time.

Many Indonesian youngsters are crazy about K-Pop music, Korean dance, dramas, cuisine, cosmetics and movies. Now hundreds of Indonesians are currently learning the Korean language while there is big interest among Korean youngsters in the Indonesian language, culture, music and movies.

On the nuclear issue, Korea expects that Indonesia will play a major role in bringing nuclear North Korea to the negotiating table. Indonesia, the de facto leader of ASEAN, has good friendly ties with both Koreas. Indonesia is not very happy with North Korea’s recent behavior and its frequent nuclear tests. Recently, Indonesia, for the first time, changed its diplomatic language to condemn strongly North Korea’s deadly missile and nuclear tests.

As far as ASEAN is concerned, Korea sees ASEAN as having huge potential to emerge as the fourth-largest economy in the coming years.

Many scholars believe that Korea considers ASEAN an alternative to China. After the US deployment of THAAD (Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense) battery to Korea, China became angry at South Korea and put many restrictions on Chinese tourists visiting Korea. As a result, Korea’s fast-growing tourism industry was badly affected last year.

Korea is planning to look at tourists from Southeast Asia, especially Muslim tourists from Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei.

Prior to this also, ASEAN had already become the second-biggest trading partner of Korea, with trade of $119 billion between Korea and ASEAN countries in 2016.

Korea invested a record $5.1 billion in Southeast Asia in 2016, a big jump from $3.8 billion in 2013.

Last year, 2.2 million ASEAN tourists visited Korea while more than 6 million Koreans visited ASEAN member states.

During his visit to Danang in Vietnam, and Clark and Manila in the Philippines, President Moon will attend APEC and ASEAN summit meetings and hold bilateral meetings with leaders from ASEAN as well as the Asia-Pacific regions.

Moon may request ASEAN leaders, especially President Jokowi, to play a mediator role between North and South Korea. Jokowi and other ASEAN leaders, who have a neutral position on the Korean crisis, can give friendly advice and also a strong warning to the rogue state if North Korea refuses to listen. North Korea’s actions pose a major threat to the peace and stability of Asia as well as the world.

Ambassador Cho says that his president and President Jokowi share many similarities. The policies of both presidents are people-oriented and they are humble persons. Both have a common chemistry. Both can work together bilaterally and regionally.

PESAWAT TEMPUR MILIK LANUD ISWAHYUDI TIGA KALI MENABRAK BURUNG
9 NOVEMBER 2017 DIANEKO_LC 2 COMMENTS
Tiga pesawat tempur di Lanud Iswahyudi Madiun mengalami kerusakan mesin. Penyebab rusaknya mesin pesawat tersebut sepele, karena burung.

“Masalahnya sepele, burung tertabrak dan masuk mesin. Otomatis mesin langsung rusak. Harus turun mesin,” ujar Komandan Lanud Iswahyudi Marsekal Pertama Samsul Rizal kepada detikcom di kantornya Rabu (08/11/2017).

Menurut Samsul tiga pesawat yang mesinnya mengalami kerusakan tersebut adalah pesawat T-50. Namun tiga pesawat itu telah diperbaiki. Samsul belum bisa memastikan berapa nilai kerugian akibat kejadian itu.

Sementara itu, Kapten Penerbang Yudistira mengatakan bahwa saat ini pesawat yang rusak telah siap dipakai karena sesaat menabrak burung langsung diganti dengan mesin yang sudah disediakan alias cadangan.

“Kendala burung terbang memang ada. Sudah tiga kali kami mengganti mesin karena kemasukan burung,” jelas Yudistira.

Meskipun dianggap sepele, namun biaya untuk pengantian mesin yang rusak tersebut tak murah. Kepala Urusan Penerangan Pasukan dan Umum Penerangan Lanud Iswahyudi Mayor Sus Tamsir mengatakan bahwa satu mesin harganya bisa mencapai Rp 2,5 miliar.

“Satu mesin itu Rp 2 sampai Rp 2,5 milyar lho. Mahal cuma gara-gara burung,” kata Sus Tamsir.
