The first priority should be air force, followed by navy and then army. An effective air force can eliminate air and naval threats, as well as rendering opposing ground forces ineffective through supply interdiction and constant bombing. Even a Hawk 209 with AGM-65 can be deadlier than the...

Also R-27, as shown in Natuna recently

National is derived from the word nation, it's about a collective of people with similar characteristics. In the case with Indonesia, is a conglomeration of former colonies of Netherlands East Indies in SEA. It's an all-encompassing and more general definition, which is actually broader than...

This picture confused me for a second.....Mr. Gatot has a twin? :D

Type 209 with a hint of Type 214 flavor

The ambulance looks old and vulnerable, should use modified Anoa or Komodo instead. Easily riddled with small arms fire and mortar shrapnel

:D My account name is an indication that the original Su-35 is no longer cool for me.... It's a "fictional" third modernized iteration of Su-35S.

I'm already "tired of my own tiredness" in waiting for the finalization of Su-35, US-2, Be-200, etc. To the extent that I no longer feel any excitement and disappointment each time I hear such news. Even if the contract of Su-35 is concluded tomorrow...I'll say, so what? I don't care...

It's more crucial for Australia to make Indonesia as "buffer" against northern threat

If I really have to choose and the world has become strongly polarized politically...I'll choose US. A lesser evil, even with Trump as president

I guess you're on Kopitiam too :)

Yes...I prefer European-made missiles also....NSM, RBS 15 Mk3, Exocet MM40 Block III, all are great missiles. Indonesia needs to invest on a lot of money. In many cases, weapons and ammo are more important than the carrying platform. Don't forget the detection and fire control suites as well....

Kongsberg Naval Strike Missile....range 185km, with GPS and IR seeker

^^ Potato cam quality and I wonder why people still use portrait orientation when recording videos

Other than programmable HE round, hopefully we will get DM63 for anti armor purpose

I'm not too concerned with this budget cut...it is only a brief setback. Anyone would agree that Indonesia will be among the world's top economies in a few decades. It may take some time, but Indonesia will get there. Even if the defence budget is always maintained at 1 percent GDP, it will...

One common assumption is that Leopard 2 must go everywhere....it doesn't have to be like that. If the terrain is rough, infantry and APC enough. If there is a bit more room, AMX-13 and Scorpion can be deployed. In fact, with the current construction of various trans toll roads, as well as...

Based on what had happened in the past, this article from JKGR seems to be quite plausible. Moreover, they become more realistic over the past one year, especially because none of their "ghoib" predictions come true. Still...I agree that we should take this with a truckload of salt

InsyaAllah.....wish you'll have good time in my country... :)

Don't trust anything until first steel cutting. For the time being, there's still no definite indication....
