Simalungun (ANTARA News) - Three helicopters along with several boats and ships were deployed, Tuesday, to look for over 100 passengers, who went missing since MV Sinar Bangun sank in Lake Toba, here, nine days ago on June 18.

The helicopters respectively belong to the National Search and Rescue Agency (Basarnas), PT Jafpa, and the Indonesian police, Riyadil Akhir, head of the North Sumatra disaster mitigation office, stated here, Tuesday.

Eight days after the search efforts, the SAR teams managed to rescue 21 survivors and found three bodies of passengers of the ill-fated boat.

MV Sinar Bangun sank in Lake Toba on June 18 when it was carrying over 190 passengers and crew members.

Lake Toba is the world`s deepest volcanic lake having a depth of 900 meters and spanning a surface area of 1,145 square kilometers. It is a popular tourist destination in North Sumatra.

Scan sonar has detected objects in two locations at a depth of 490 meters in Lake Toba in North Sumatra on Sunday evening, Chief of Basarnas M. Syaugi noted.

"We still have to analyze the objects further, but we have marked the locations," he noted at the Tiga Ras Port in Simalungun District, North Sumatra, on Sunday.

The objects are detected two kilometers and 2.5 kilometers southwest of the port respectively, he remarked.

Basarnas will ascertain the objects at the two locations before taking further steps, he revealed.

He further praised the local people for their initiative to help search for the victims.

According to the standard operating procedure, after the search has lasted for seven days, it could be extended for another three days. If the time has passed by, and no indicator is found, it can be extended again.

Thales Completes Repair and Upgrade of Kingklip Hull-Mounted Sonar on Indonesia’s Warship

995933.jpg

As a partner of the Indonesian Navy for over 40 years, Thales is the appointed supplier of combat systems for the country's warships in service. Earlier this year, Thales also successfully modernised one of Indonesia's Diponegoro-class corvettes by installing and integrating the sonar system with the Kingklip hull-mounted sonar.

The upgrade follows a repair of the corvette damaged in an accident that took place during a routine sea operation in January 2015. By updating the operator console, signal processing and hardware technology, Thales enabled the Indonesian navy to achieve a boost in sonar performance for its warship as well as enhanced communicative capabilities between the user and the machine through the human machine interface (HMI), which is already installed on the Perusak Kawal Rudal (PKR) class frigate.

Furthering its commitment to establish long-term relationships with local industrial partners and facilitate the transfer of knowledge and expertise, Thales worked closely with PT Dharma Satya Nusantara (DSN) on the reparation of the sonar system.

In February 2018, Thales also completed a successful sea trial with the support of a former French navy sonar operator, who also shared best practices with the Indonesian navy officers.

“We are proud to be part of the Indonesian navy's modernisation ambitions as we support them in the refurbishment of the sonar system on its warship. This is telling of the trust they have in Thales based on the longstanding partnership we have with the Indonesian authorities to always deliver and share our expertise to support them in their goals, whatever it takes,” said Eric-Jan Raatgerink, Country Director, Thales in Indonesia.

Thales is supporting our customers' growth ambitions in the Republic of Indonesia for close to 40 years in the areas of defence, aerospace, and space. With its main office located in Jakarta, Thales is providing various solutions for air traffic management and telecommunication satellites to its civil customers, while being a long-term provider of defence solutions to the Indonesian Air Force, Army and Navy.

Yogyakarta (ANTARA News) - The Indonesian Air Force (TNI AU) will go ahead with its plan to purchase Hercules aircraft of type J to replace its aging fleet, Air Force Chief of Staff Marshal Yuyu Sutisna stated.

"The old Hercules aircraft will gradually be replaced with the newest ones of type J," he noted after inaugurating graduates of the Air Force Academy here on Thursday.

The plan to procure the newest transport aircraft is in line with TNI AU`s third strategic plan, he revealed.

The type J Hercules aircraft is one of the three types of heavy-duty transport planes that the TNI AU is considering to buy. The others are Antonov and Airbus.

Although the plan to purchase heavy-duty transport aircraft has not been finalized, detailed consideration to choose Hercules aircraft will save the state budget funds, he remarked.

"What is clear is that I will only implement the strategic plan. The procurement of heavy-duty transport Hercules aircraft has not been approved, as we still have other choices. As the infrastructure for Hercules aircraft has been in place, why should we look for other types of planes?" he questioned.

The plan to procure heavy-duty transport aircraft is also in line with the plan to build another air squadron in the territory of the Air Force Operation Command III. Currently, air squadrons 31 and 32 are still operating Hercules aircraft of types B/BT and H/HS.
