Buff up the Marines pls (and the Navy of course). I think getting more AAVs (especially the Korean version) is a good idea, considering their performance and also that the Marines seems to like them (well you can see one of them marked with "stars", a "VIP" thing i guess?). It can survives sea...

I'll just put it here: http://defense-studies.blogspot.com/2019/07/indonesia-to-add-personnel-for-kfxifx.html Indonesia to Add Personnel for KFX/IFX Program 24 Juli 2019 KFX/IFX fighter (photo : picdeer) Indonesia seeks reduction in share of expenses in joint fighter jet project Indonesia...

We should be looking for a universal truck platform, for artillery mount to logistics to troops transport, it'll make it easier to manage sparepart and maintenance (make logistics more efficient in general), especially if it's locally produced.

We can conclude that Ideal Essential Force would be a thing in the future, as the Kemhan and TNI did have that "ideal" number figure. There's so much to expect in MEF 3 2020-2024 and post-MEF (IEF?), but how well TNI and Kemhan go through it is the question, although it surprised me that they...

Not really, neither Russia nor Aussie have anything to do with Biak, Biak is just part of our strategy to cover Papua's airspace by establishing a strategic airbase, of which Biak was chosen, most likely due to it's strategic location of being centrally located off the Northern Papuan coast, and...

Damn, that translation was horrific, thinking about it, perhaps i should work part-time as a translator, gotta get easy money while at the same time prevent people from getting eyesore reading google translated articles. This is some good read, indeed cooperation with South Korea is the key and...

Ow shiet, Millenium camo again??? i would prefer "polosan" tbh, especially if it's similar to F-35's color scheme.

Raduga, this is like the 5th time i saw you posting negative/pessimistic thing on this thread The technologies can be acquired in the future, and the budget could increase too, it's not an eternal state of we being "just like this", no, every year it keeps getting better than previously, we...

Whoops, the low R&D budget is probably the main reason, but then the government said that it's more about administration problem, that there's no special budget for this program. However, it's an unofficial ROK Military fanpage, i personally don't find his opinion is of any importance, the...

I prefer Wedgetail more tbh, rotodome-style AWACS seems to gone out of fashion these days (Sentry?).

Russian products excels in defensive purpose, especially defense against NATO weapons, NATO made the best tank, Russia built the best anti-tank and so on. Aside from economic and political reason, supply chain from Russia is hard and complicated to maintain as they are pretty much isolated...

Just like what i've been thinking all this time sis, South Korea and Turkey have been in our situation but they already gone past that time and now successfully built their defense industry on-par with the established player, that's why i am for a cooperation with both of them, especially South...

These complexities can be very problematic sometimes, it cost us a lot of money and headache, not to mention the Flankers keeps needing "difficult" overhauls like the one being sent to Belarus. Russia is notoriously bad at customer service and there's enough proofs of that, not just from our own...

Only Russian fanboys will be affected by the decision to trade Su-35 for F-16V, many TNI-AU officers actually prefers Vipers over Su-35, i'd argue that the minority faction in the Kemhan and TNI is actually the Su-35 supporters, if not then there will be incentive to prioritize Su-35...

PKR and Su-35 wastes too much time, somebody need to get these shit done real quick if they are serious doing MEF 3. Almost all member here are tired with Su-35 thing, it's just not worth it anymore, even if they arrives what will we do then? the Flankers are trouble in itself, not to mention...

By the end of this year they should clear all of this Su-35 shit, either order them for real or just re-allocate the budget for F-16V acquisition, that way we could get a really logical deal than ordering two types of planes from two rivaling countries, diverting budget and attention...

Explain it for me pls

Conformal Fuel Tank, or CFT, or Punuk as it is popularly called here. A way to further extend the plane's endurance and fuel capacity while not fucking up with the design too much, also a showcase of "modularity" that is a hot thing these days.

We got 110m KN Tanjung Datu and 80m OPV class already, and they're homegrown (perhaps could even be developed further into Corvettes and Frigates), an advantageous aspect for us, ramping up CG's posture is not a problem at all, you can just sit comfortably and they would still continue working...
