Financial Situation during Pandemi and current program

In 2020, Indonesian Aerospace (PTDI) experience lost of around 7 million USD. This is due to cancellation of several orders made by Indonesian government and Philippine Armed Force. For comparison, in 2019 Indonesian Aerospace get net profit of 10 million USD. It is still much better than big aerospace companies like Boeing and Airbus which experience huge lost during 2020 period due to collapse of Airline industry (pandemic related effect)

Current ongoing programs by Indonesian Aerospace (PTDI):

N 219 Amphibious
KF21/IFX -with KAI (Korean Aerospace) and ADD Korea
MALE UCAV Elang Hitam (Black Eagle)- with SOE consortium and ITB (Bandung Institute of Technology)
Cruise Missile-with SOE consortium

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other program

RX 450 and RX 550 rocket program is handled by LAPAN
Cargo drone program is handled by LAPAN (Indonesia space and Aerospace Agency)
R 80 program is run by PT RAI
N 245 program look like being pending

Dawn Aerospace To Empower The Indonesian Space Agency’s Tsunami Warning Satellite Constellation
AUGUST 9, 2021

The National Institute of Aeronautics and Space of Indonesia (LAPAN) has selected Dawn Aerospace‘s green propulsion for a new satellite constellation used for the early detection of Tsunamis.

Indonesia, located along the Pacific Ocean’s Circum-Pacific belt, or “Ring of Fire,” is geographically prone to tsunamis; several tectonic plates meet and frequently cause volcanic and seismic activity. As a result, around 90 percent of the world’s earthquakes occur in the area.

With Indonesia’s history of earthquakes and tsunamis, a new Tsunami Warning System (TWS) is expected to save countless lives and result in economic benefits for the nation.

A TWS uses buoys and satellites to measure wave heights after an earthquake. It can provide warnings of up to several hours, depending on the quake’s location.

After receiving a signal of unusual activity from sea bed sensors, the buoys then transmit data to satellites, sending warnings to ground stations and tsunami warning centers. The public is then informed to evacuate via sirens or text messages. The planned constellation is for nine satellites in an equatorial orbit, providing constant coverage for the nation.

Our industry often talks about going to space to improve life on Earth,” said Jeroen Wink, Dawn Co-founder. “We are incredibly proud to be part of a project designed to save lives.”

Dawn has recently announced contracts with customers ALE Co., Ltd. Japan and UARX Space. The companies will use Dawn’s new, smallsat propulsion architecture.
