As long we buy stuff much more from US than Russia in this case f16v. Its doesnt matter to them.. That why we need to buy huge number of f16v..to balance it.. if we buy much more from russia we will get CAATSA from U.S.. trump is only want surplus in all trade.. its economic matter now.
32F16v + 48rafale.. its a good combine..but If TNI AU buy rafale..its will need huge money..not only for the plane and weapon.but also for infrastructure,training for the crew..TNI AU need to build it from zero..
Does we need to say goodbye for su35?
Govt have choice the design..the theme is rimba nusantara or else im forgot the detail.. if we need cooperate with other nation its better to US or Japan..
I much more prefer fremm or iver class..
If we choose la fayette class.. its not bad choice either.. ni kayaknya balik ke damen lg..
Btw.. our MoD will review again all of alutsista contract.. so maybe we need to say goodbye to su35
