N 219 program needs to be accelerated and I hope they start producing the plane for Aceh province which has already ordered 4 planes. Then we will see what will happen in Singapore Airshow in January-February 2022 in which I believe PTDI will fly 1 prototype to Singapore so potential customer can see it more closely.
They need to fix the cargo compartment where I see not looking good, others are fine. Better to use synthetic leather with black color and make it neat, looks luxurious and easy to replace. I just see several nails there which is ridiculous.
I think the plane is better than twin otter since N 219 is wider and taller than twin otter
Twin Otter in East Indonesia (Papua Province)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I do hope N 219 can create many sales to PTDI, if it is supported by financing I think it has good future in Indonesia, Philippine, and African countries. We will see what will happen in Singapore Airshow 2022, then we can estimate whether we need to buy huge land in Kertajati, West Java, for PTDI expansion. While other development also show PTDI is serious in developing N 245 and seems the government is backing as well. N 245 is also good for cargo plane IMO. N245 and MALE UCAV program needs production facilities as well, current PTDI complex is already full.
Kertajati, West Java
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I also think Soedirman Airport in Central Java should be given to Air Force again, with the domestic air travel lost many passengers during Pandemic time, no wonder the airport is empty.

Indonesia seeks more autonomy on CN235 production in offset talks for A400M
by Ridzwan Rahmat
An Indonesian maritime patrol aircraft variant of the CN235
Indonesia is seeking greater autonomy from Airbus in the manufacturing process for the CN235 twin-turboprop aircraft.
Meeting documents provided to Janes indicate that Indonesian Ministry of Defence (MoD) officials have included this objective as an offset condition should Jakarta decide to procure A400M multirole aircraft for the Indonesian Air Force.
The CN235 is a medium-range utility aircraft that was jointly developed by Construcciones Aeron´auticas SA (now part of Airbus) and Indonesian manufacturer PT Dirgantara Indonesia – PTDI (earlier known as IPTN) in the 1980s.
Several variants of the aircraft have since been developed, with PTDI securing contracts for maritime patrol and transport versions of the airframe with customers like the Indonesian armed forces, the Nepal Army Air Wing, and the Senegalese Air Force since 1993.
As reported by Janes in October 2021, the Indonesian MoD has restarted talks to potentially procure a fleet of Airbus A400Ms to enhance military airlift capabilities of its air force. Indonesian defence planners are also in consultation with Airbus to understand if the aircraft type can also fulfil its air force's in-flight refuelling requirements.
An attendance list of the recent meeting that took place between Indonesian officials and Airbus on 1 October includes five representatives from the MoD's Directorate General for Defence Potential, a senior executive of PTDI, and representatives from state-owned aerospace service provider, GMF AeroAsia.
Documents from this meeting further indicate that PTDI is pushing to manufacture more segments of the CN235 at its facilities in Bandung, Indonesia.
These segments are namely the aircraft's inboard flaps, nose fuselage, engine cowlings, nose and main landing gears assemblies, and center wing box assembly.

Collins Aerospace and GMF to Transform Indonesian Air Force C-130H Aircraft with Modern Digital Cockpit
04 November 2021

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa – The Indonesian Air Force joins a growing list of customers that have selected Collins Aerospace for its C-130H Hercules military transport aircraft modernization effort. Serving as a contractor to GMF, Collins Aerospace will provide its Flight2™ avionics solution, that transforms dated analog controls into a modern digital glass cockpit and expands Collins’ position as the global leader in C-130 modifications.
Used for a broad range of missions, including personnel and cargo transport, as well as humanitarian efforts, the Flight2™ avionics modification will replace the C-130H’s analog instruments with seven multifunction displays, three control display units and new digital autopilot. In addition, the aircraft will be equipped with the Required Navigation Performance/Area Navigation flight management system, with high altitude release point and computed air release point precision airdrop software. The modernization will help the Indonesian Air Force optimize its operations, improve pilot situational awareness and minimize aircraft downtime.
“We worked closely with GMF and the Indonesian Air Force to leverage our Flight2™ Mobility Mission Application (MMA) architecture, and to tailor the system to meet all the specific mission requirements,” said Dave Schreck, vice president and general manager for Military Avionics and Helicopters at Collins Aerospace. “MMA enables customers to select from a superset of off-the-shelf capabilities, which really maximizes what we can provide for any given budget. In this case, we created a solution that is custom fit to the needs of the Indonesian Air Force.”
Andi Fahrurrozi, CEO of GMF, added, “We are delighted to work with Collins Aerospace to jointly modernize the C-130H owned by the Indonesian Air Force. GMF, as a proud Indonesian provider appointed by the Ministry of Defense, believes this prestigious project can be done in a timely manner by working closely with Collins Aerospace. This project is a part of GMF's effort to diversify the business and support the defense industry to rejuvenate the fleet and improve flight safety.”
By upgrading to Flight2™, the Indonesian Air Force’s C-130H will be in compliance with the most recent International Civil Aviation Organization standards, while also equipping it with a tactical advantage in military operations.
Collins Aerospace has delivered over 2,900 Flight2™ solutions for military fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft including 370 C-130s upgraded, or on contract to be upgraded, in 16 different countries. More C-130 upgrades have been fitted with avionics from Collins than from any other single provider in the world.

VIVA – The Nahdlatul Ulama Motivating Cadre Education (PKPNU) purchased five N-219 aircraft produced by PT Dirgantara Indonesia (Persero) in Bandung, West Java, Wednesday, November 10, 2021.
Present at the signing of the memorandum of understanding for the purchase of the aircraft, which will be named NU-219, were the PKPNU National Instructor Team Abdul Munim Dz, Adnan Anwar, Khariri Makmun, Abdul Rosyid, Professor Atik Bintoro, and Aang Amrullah.
"The purchase of the NU219 aircraft will strengthen the synergy between NU cadres and expand the NU network in the context of national consolidation towards a century of Nahdlatul Ulama," said PKNU National Instructor Adnan Anwar, quoted from a press release.
PKPNU National Coordinator Munim Dz added, PKNU really appreciates the N-219 aircraft because the aircraft was made one hundred percent by the nation's own children with components produced domestically. He hopes that the purchase of the N219 aircraft by PKPNU cadres will mark the revival of the national aircraft industry. The five planes will be used for cargo logistics and humanitarian missions.
