I actually wonder why no one has looked into the SC-130J Sea Hercules

I think he means buying Mudhens/Superbugs as a complement to the Vipers, to maintain our Hi-Lo mix

Been hearing rumors about a CAATSA waiver as well, is it possible that Prabowo might have been trying to get a waiver for us in exchange for something else?

Pretty much you could find P-8's landing at either Halim or Juanda a number of times a year. But I don't think it is as frequent as if we have a basing agreement with the US like Singapore does. C-17's and P-8's are not an uncommon sight here, if we do sign an agreement with the US I think you'd...

I doubt we would be able to afford a costly US-Russian-French ecosystem, we're not Egypt and we shouldn't follow Egypt either

This is what i've kinda been saying the past year, we start working on getting F-35's from now but only operate them by the late-2020's to 2030's especially now with the long backlog, even Singapore who got approved early this year for their purchase will only be receiving 4 of them in 2026. I...

Its probably just for illustration purposes, just because the photo is in the article doesn't mean its the photo of the actual event

Why even use equipment that the Army didn't have a necessary requirement for anyway

Its not just our position, we're technically not ready for F-35's either, realistically and rationally the TNI-AU would only be ready for them by 2030's or end of 2020's at the earliest. The gap from operating our current 4th gen F-16's and Su-30's immediately to a full fledged 5th gen F-35 is...

based on his previous tweets like this one it might be the F-35

Finally, If we're projected to operate 8-12 submarines, this is essential

I really don't agree introducing unfamiliar airframes especially when its for an interim solution. Interim solutions should be cheap but also quick and easy to introduce, I'm not sure about the level of familiarity between the Hornet and the existing Vipers we have despite both being US jets in...

Easier said than done, they would need to be hands on, assessing a facility through an online tour isn't exactly that and it isn't transparent enough

Gak gini juga kali pak

The people from Babcock and OMT need to come here to asses our facilities first
