Jakarta, CNN Indonesia -- Pemerintah nampaknya berpikir ulang buat melanjutkan rencana kerja sama dengan Korea Selatan, dalam program perancangan pesawat tempur Korean Fighter Experiment/Indonesian Fighter Experiment (
K-FX/I-FX ). Jakarta, CNN Indonesia - The government seems to be rethinking to continue the plan of cooperation with South Korea, in the Korean Fighter Experiment (
K-FX / I-FX ) Korean Fighter Experiment aircraft design program. Kementerian Pertahanan menyatakan kemampuan anggaran menjadi salah satu kendala utama, padahal jet tempur itu ditargetkan bisa mengudara pada 2025. The Ministry of Defense stated that budget capability is one of the main obstacles, even though the fighter jet is targeted to air in 2025.
"Arahan dari Pak Presiden kita lihat dulu kemampuan anggaran," kata Kepala Badan Penelitian dan Pengembangan Kementerian Pertahanan Anne Kusmayati di Pondok Labu, Jakarta Selatan, Selasa (28/8). "The direction from the President, we first saw the ability of the budget," said Head of the Ministry of Defense Research and Development Agency Anne Kusmayati in Pondok Labu, South Jakarta, Tuesday (28/8).
Wacana kerja sama antara Indonesia dengan Korea Selatan untuk memproduksi pesawat tempur ini memang mengalami pasang-surut. The discourse of cooperation between Indonesia and South Korea to produce these fighter planes has experienced ups and downs. Sempat dikabarkan tertunda beberapa kali, Kemenhan memastikan pada Mei lalu proyek ini tetap berjalan. Had reportedly been delayed several times, the Ministry of Defense confirmed in May the project was still running.

Sebenarnya proyek pengembangan pesawat tempur generasi kelima ini pernah tertunda pada 2009 silam. Actually the development of the fifth generation fighter aircraft was delayed in 2009. Baru pada 7 Januri 2016 Indonesia dan Korea Selatan meneken perjanjian pembagian anggaran (
cost share agreement ). Only on January 7 2016 did Indonesia and South Korea sign a budget sharing agreement (
cost share agreement ).
Menurut Anne, Presiden Joko Widodo berkeras menginginkan transisi teknologi dan hak kekayaan intelektual (HAKI) antara Korea Selatan dengan Indonesia dalam proyek ini berjalan mulus, guna memastikan transfer pengetahuan. According to Anne, President Joko Widodo insisted that the transition of technology and intellectual property rights (IPR) between South Korea and Indonesia in this project will run smoothly, to ensure the transfer of knowledge.
"Itu sudah kita komunikasikan dengan pihak Korea dan mereka sudah memenuhi keinginan Indonesia. Insyaallah kita tinggal menunggu keputusan Pak Presiden," kata Anne lagi. "We have communicated it with the Korean side and they have fulfilled Indonesia's wishes. God willing, we are just waiting for the President's decision," Anne said again.
Indonesia telah membayar uang muka proyek ini sebesar Rp3 triliun. Indonesia has paid a down payment of this project amounting to Rp3 trillion. Pemerintah masih harus menanggung 20 persen dari total biaya sebesar Rp18 triliun atau 1,65 triliun won (US$1,3 miliar). The government still has to bear 20 percent of the total cost of Rp18 trillion or 1.65 trillion won (US $ 1.3 billion).

engineering manufacturing development ), dan terakhir proses produksi massal. There are three phases of making KF-X / IF-X, namely technology development or concept development (
technology development ), development of manufacturing engineering or prototype development (
