Agree, it seems that prioritizing the essentials and finishing what we've started much more important than adding more projects. I'm just concerned of how much the goverment put their attention to the Caracal, cause this one right here could very well fill our need for heavy CSAR/transport heli...

Such a shady article, "sumber AR" could be anyone, including your local cilok vendor, not to mention the repeated use of "rumor beredar", so... i'm going to take what being told in the article with a huge pile of salt. I've heard that China is not very pleased with the interoperability of Su-35...

@Indos Is H225M Caracal only meant to replace the fleets of older Puma, or is it going to be one of our main tranport/SAR heicopter models, with possibility of more orders (than just to replace the aging fleets)? Is it possible that the Army would also order it in the future? how does it compare...

If there's something like this, then there's a possibility of Damen offering the variant to TNI AL for the follow-up order. But, if we are to have another design variation, it inevitable that Damen would keep having the majority contribution to the shipbuilding process, cause obviously they are...

Everything is possible in Indonesia, but, i don't think PKR 3-6 (if 6 is really the exact figure for Ahmad Yani-class replacement) would be of any different tonnage than the current PKR, i am both unconvinced of such a possiblity and i don't really support the idea. Only if they already finished...

WTF you again?!? The Navy and DoD should prioritize the follow up order for these sexy beasts, or even go with the plan to standardize them along with the smaller Sigma corvette as our prime ship model to replace all the frigates and corvettes that soon will be retired.

What's the spec requirement for the OPV?

Bureaucratic problem as always, still in better shape than a sudden change in sensor and CMS spec imo. It's better to cheer that we already realized the fact that we often have poor record in weapon acquisition due to long-term budget allocation not being regulated by the law and now working to...

So, it will be 4 CL-515? and what about the "seven unit deal"? sorry that i don't quite understand the sentence.

When even Turkey which have close ties with NATO got into trouble with the US for buying S400 and was threatened to be kicked out from F-35 program, imagine how much trouble Indonesia will get if it wanted S400 while at the same time wanted Viper?

Shiet, pardon me that i forgot about the South Korean THAAD shenanigans, seems like the thing is not really just a defense product for sale, but apparently this stuff is part of US' containment strategy through their allied nations. SAMP/T and Patriot are both good choices, but i feel that TNI...

I'm going for Patriot (and for the most extreme possibility : THAAD) for mobile SAM platform, it's very popular and widely available, not to mention it's relatively cheap. But then again, the NASAMS 2 business need to be cleared of first, we still don't know whether the Military will continue...

LRASM masih belum, katakanlah "mass produce" oleh AS, bisa dibilang masih dalam tahap pengembangan lebih lanjut. Apabila sesuatu masih belum widespread di dalam militer AS sendiri, maka kemungkinan untuk eksport itu masih sangat lama, karena watak Yankees memang begitu.

Alasan "Humanitarian" dari EU itu tidak lebih dari gimmick/embel-embel semata, karena pada akhirnya kebijakan mereka ini ya karena mereka proteksionis akan pasar komoditas pertanian di EU, yang mana minyak sawit itu sangat mendominasi karena kualitas dan kuantitasnya yang lebih baik dibanding...

Banyak scale model KFX/IFX terpasang Meteor dan IRIS-T, itu kira-kira bagaimana kemungkinan "lanjut"nya? karena melihat tren mengarah pada Viper, sepertinya prioritas order adalah untuk AMRAAM dan Sidewinder kedepannya (atau malah ikut pakai AAM yang dikembangin Korsel?). Kalo masalah VLS, masih...

This Su-35 drama is pretty much like these cheap *** sinetron they air on TV, the story goes back and forth with no end in sight, and every news about it is always anticlimatic. This is just not worth it anymore man, even when they finally arrive, we can't be sure whether they would be a good...

These stranded caucasians often become a pain in the ***, pouring salt to our wound and just like to mess up the neighborhood by keep shoving their western values to us. First they pretended to be friendly, then when we are weakened, they will virtue signal and badmouthing our action, then they...

I'm leaning more to the purchase of 32 unit of Vipers rather than 48, not that i don't trust the government regarding the budget allocation, but i think 32 is good enough that it could still fill in the quota for MEF just fine, and we can still have some spare budget to invest in another thing...

Good to know, cause i saw an article which says many F-16's production line are to be closed cause the US isn't going to buy them anymore, and also cause there's a lot of speculations that Viper delivery order would be one hell of a queue, which caused the like of Thai and Pinoy forumers in a...

Mr. Woof Woof AKA Tukang Ngitung memang ahlinya berhitung, anggap saja ia coba-coba bikin skenario via hitungan just for fun. Sebenarnya 4-5 Skadron F-16 saja sudah cukup, asal versi up-to-date, toh kalo kebanyakan juga buat apa? mending uangnya invest kepada program modernisasi/upgrade atau R&D...
