Honestly i am neutral about Palestine, i am for the idea that we shouldn't restrict ourselves just to show support for them, we talked about them way too much compared to them talking about us. We are a Southeast Asian country who pretended that a Middle-Eastern Jewish state with considerable...

Btw, i'm curious of why Israeli weapons is such a hot thing on the market? India, Vietnam, Brazil and various countries around the world seems to eye Israeli product as the prime "alternative option", why? what are the qualities that make their product competitive compared to other suppliers?

No for the sonobuoys, but CN 235 MPA did have 6 hardpoints capable for carrying AM39 Exocet and Mk46 Torpedo. I suggest that you anticipate some development in 2020, there might be a surprise.

RBU 6000 is not really my favorite thing if we are talking about ASW, it's something else entirely. ASW role is indeed better suited for corvettes and light frigates, so i'm hoping at least the future replacement for Pattimura-class could be fitted with better ASW suite, TASS (CAPTAS 1?) and of...

DPN with more lethal torpedo, ASW missiles, dedicated ASW heli, and Sigma MMB stern converted for ASW use, be it naval mine capable, TASS, whatever, as long as it could fulfill the role as ASW-capable corvette (dozens of them), there's so much to replace, too little time, too expensive choices...

We've already invested time and money on Damen-PT PAL cooperation, specifically towards Sigma-class family design. They might not be the "best" nor the cheapest, but then if there's really ToT, then we could benefit by learning about Sigma naval architecture and it's modularity concept...

We should lobby these Aussies first. The issue about OPM is not really about these bandits themselves, but it's these Bules in the south and their pacific pawns that keep bitching about HAM and just generally made our affairs in the East harder than it should be. Papua will not be in this...

Gak hanya satu negara tertentu, kalau bisa ya semua tetangga di deter. Stupid Politician itu semua negara ada, termasuk Indonesia, begitu juga tetangga, tapi lebih baik apabila dampak dari stupid politician itu ada di seberang perbatasan daripada di dalam negeri. Aku sih anti kalo kita ngandelin...

I'm just being intrigued by the concept, a courier drone sounds like a good idea for a low-cost goods transportation in isolated areas with minimum infrastructure. Of course Garuda have tons of staffs much more qualified than i am, they aren't kids who are easily hooked by a toy advertisement...

Very costly and risky if we are talking about a peer-to-peer scenario, cause the like of Iron Dome SAM will make an easy target out of them. Even a dedicated Attack UAV rarely if ever used in saturation bombing/ swarm attack, i thought the modern day rule is that drones are supposed to be used...

https://ev.buaa.edu.cn/info/1013/1602.htm Another courier drone model also by Beihang, it designed to have a bigger capacity, but still in prototype phase as of 2019.

What's your thought/ prediction? it kinda make sense that they are holding back the PKR deals due to internal problem/ dissatisfaction, so what's the solutions/alternatives?

Sorry for the RBU 6000 thing, i just find the thing interesting after seeing it on action, and the fact that they are the only one of it's class still widely operated with no western equivalent (SK have some interesting things like ASW Missile attached with a Blue Shark torpedo), but don't worry...

We've already pretty much chose Damen-MBDA-Thales (+ Odense?) trinity as our main surface combatant ships' supplier, i don't think it will be that easy to just suddenly abandon the plan for more orders to them, didn't see any other alternatives for now. 300 million USD per PKR is not so bad...

I don't think that we have to restrict the ship models to a particular number, the point is just simply to acquire the necessary and throw away the unnecessary. Honestly i would prefer that we are flexible in upgrading our capability, nobody knows what we need in the future and what new...

I personally would like to see the Sigma-class family to be our main ship family class, that is every to-be retired combatant vessels would be replaced with a Sigma-derived models, from corvettes to frigate. Ahmad Yani-class would certainly be replaced by REM class, but if possible, then maybe...

Mainly just for the self-sufficiency of rocket artillery munitions, but then the end result is a 31 km ranged rocket compared to the standart munition of 20km range, so yeah we could say that we're developing an upgraded munition for Grad. Even though our rocketry research is mainly the...

I only hoped that the medium range SAM would be dual-role AKA both Area Defense and Field Defense, of which they are also mobile and not stationary like the Skyshield, but for initial orders, i think i could accept a stationary SAM. NASAMS 2 is a good choice if we consider the logistical aspect...

Looks very odd, dat window tho, also, wtf with the missiles?
