RIP, syahrul anto, a hero and our guardian at sea, dies while searching for Lion Air crash victims. His last message for his wife is quite touching
"Pagi itu, satu demi satu penumpang mendekat ke pintu keberangkatan di Soekarno Hatta. Petugas check in menyambut mereka dengan senyum.
Sekitar 180 orang mendekati takdirnya. Ada yang tertinggal karena macet di jalan, ada yang pindah ke pesawat lebih awal karena ingin cepat sampai. Dan ada juga yang batal karena ada urusan lain yang tiba-tiba.
Tak ada yang tertukar. Allah menyeleksi dengan perhitungan yang tak pernah salah. Mereka ditakdirkan dalam suatu janjian berjemaah. Takdirnya seperti itu tanpa dibedakan usia, proses pembelian tiket, check in, terbang dan sampai akhir perjalanan hari ini, hanya sebuah proses untuk jalan pulang, menjumpai Allah yang tertulis di Lauhul Mahfuz.
Sebuah catatan yang tidak pernah kita lihat, tapi kita jumpai. Takdir sangatlah rapih tersusun, kehendak Allah tak terjangkau dengan akal manusia. Allahu Akbar.
Lalu, kapan giliran kita pergi? Hanya Allah yang tahu. Kesadaran iman kita berkata Bersiap setiap saat. Kapanpun dan dalam keadaan apapun. Mari kita benahi ketaqwaan kita untuk bekal pulang ke kampung abadi. Hanya itu jalan terbaik".

Both of them got a new double-pin tracks with two rubber pad on each shoe,
The indoor one got new hull + working turret
The outdoor one got the old hull (the one used for mobility test) + dummy turret
They really needs to redesign that driver position and hatch. It offer no protection at all for the driver in it's current form, also that periscope should be mounted better as it is quite pointless having it stands tall like that.
Anyway, anybody can confirm whether this Badak already got it's new drive-train & suspension fitted from Timoney?

Noice I didn't even realize it until i zoomed in and check it several times.
Badak got additional(thin) armor for turret and hull, can't compare it to add on armor used in our Leo Revolution though
, waiting for the joint development of add on armor with India.

Highly effective solution [ID18D1]
Being showcased here at Indo Defence for the first time are the first two examples of the Medium Tank (MT), which has been jointly developed over a four-year period by FNSS Savunma Sitermieri of Turkey (Stand A050D) and PT Pindad of Indonesia (Hall B, Stand B345) to meet the operational requirements of the Indonesian Army.
Formal qualification tests started in July and were complete in August in Indonesia. Three phases were conducted, comprising mine tests, endurance and firing trials.
The mine tests were carried out on an MT hull and were successfully completed in July, according to FNSS. The endurance tests were carried out in Java from 6-16 August, during which the vehicle travelled almost 2,000km on the western part of the island and was put through its paces in various types of terrain and under difference climatic conditions. Firing tests were carried out in Bandung between 25 and 27 August, during which the MT successfully engaged moving targets while the platform was also moving.
The MT is fitted with the latest CMI Defence Cockerill 3105 turret, which is armed with a high-pressure 105mm rifled gun that can fire various natures of NATO standard 105mm ammunition. The 105mm gun is fed by a bustle-mounted automatic loader, which has enabled the turret crew to be reduced to commander and gunner. The turret is also armed with a 7.62mm coaxial machine gun.
The computerised fire control system enables the MT to successfully engage stationary and moving targets while the platform is moving.
The commander's roof-mounted stabilised sight enables hunter/killer target engagements.
Main battle tanks today commonly weigh 60 tonnes or more, which can limit their mobility on existing road networks; the new MT is much lighter and therefore more deployable.
According to K Nail Kurt, general manager and CEO of FNSS, "Medium Tank will be a highly effective solution in today's conditions of asymmetric warfare. The vehicle meets all of the requirements of an easy and rapid positioning, high-mobility, low-visibility, high-firepower and cost-effective medium weight tank."
It is expected that Indonesia will place a minimum initial contract for 44 unites for the MT for the Indonesian Army.

Anka for Indonesia? [ID18D1]
In an obvious push to further promote its flagship medium-altitude, long-endurance unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to Indonesia, Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI, Stand A050M, Turkey pavilion) has a full-sized model of its Anka on display here at the show.
Proudly sitting in the corner of Hall B1, the aircraft is here just three months after TAI announced it is seeking opportunities to collaborate with Indonesian industry in order to pitch Anka for a local tender.
TAI has said it will modify the system as needed to meet any specific requirements Indonesia may have, and will do so by incorporating local suppliers into the supply chain. This co-operation will not be limited to UAVs, but will also be open to other potential markets and requirements.
Anka is being displayed with its satellite communications capability, as well as a weapons fit including Roketsan’s 22kg MAM-L Smart Micro Munition. The UAV has a 17.3m wingspan, a 200kg payload capacity, and an endurance of some 24 hours.

End-to-end protection [ID18D1]
Leonardo (Hall D, Stand D208) is pitching its BriteEye electronic warfare suite to meet an Indonesian air force requirement for a self-protection capability for its BAE Systems Hawk light attack/trainer fleet, building on the SEER capability already installed on board the aircraft.
The system is a low-cost aircraft protection system that defends platforms from radar-guided threats in a single system, cueing the launch of appropriate effects from a countermeasure dispensing system.
It incorporates the company’s SEER radar warning receiver (RWR) capability to detect the threats – a system that is already integrated onto Indonesia’s Hawks – before cueing countermeasures including flare or Leonardo’s BriteCloud expendable radar-jamming decoy. As Leonardo provides the whole suite, it can offer an end-to-end radio-frequency protection capability, offering more interoperability between the different elements, it says. “Our SEER radar warning receiver, which detects and identifies potential radar threats and alerts the pilot, is already installed on board Indonesian air force Hawks,” Alberto Pietra, director of marketing and sales for Leonardo’s Airborne and Space Systems division, told the Show Daily.
“We’re now looking to go a step further and are offering complete end-to-end protection from radar-guided threats, including our world-leading BriteCloud expendable radar-jamming decoy, which is now in service with the UK’s Royal Air Force.”
Indonesia has been actively seeking a RWR capability for its Hawk fleet, in order to effectively protect it during light attack missions.
“With BriteEye on board, the Indonesian air force would have the freedom to operate in areas that would otherwise be off-limits due to modern ground radar emplacements,” Pietra noted.
“Any incoming radar-guided threats would be picked up by SEER and could then be automatically directed away from the aircraft by our BriteCloud decoy, without adding any additional workload for the pilot.”
Leonardo added that it is already working with Indonesian pilots and technicians to ensure the air force is getting the most out of its SEER systems; updating them so they can effectively react to new threats as they emerge.

More effective firepower [ID18D1]
CHRISTOPHER F FOSS
06 November 2018
Many countries in the region are now boosting their firepower with the introduction of new towed and self-propelled (SP) artillery systems, tracked and wheeled, and artillery rocket systems (ARSs), which not only have longer ranges but also carry more effective ammunition.
While the SP systems are more expensive to procure and operate than conventional towed artillery systems, their advantage is that they can come into action much more quickly, carry out a fire mission and then redeploy before any counter-battery fire, making them more survivable.
The latest artillery system to enter service with Indonesia is the French Nexter Systems CAESAR 155mm/52 calibre based on a 6x6 chassis, which can be rapidly deployed over long distances without requiring heavy equipment transporters. An initial batch of 37 has been delivered; an order for an additional 18 was placed in early 2017.
Indonesia's armed forces have taken delivery of 155mm/39 calibre M109A4 SPs from Belgium, and also deploy 105mm towed artillery systems, which can more easily be transported by helicopter. The more recent acquisition is the Nexter Systems 105mm LG1 Mk II for the marines.
Following the acquisition of surplus 155mm/39 calibre FH-70 towed howitzers fitted with an auxiliary power unit (APU), Malaysia procured some 28 South African Denel Land Systems G5 155mm/52 calibre artillery systems.
Singapore has now replaced all its 105mm towed systems with a mixture of 155mm towed and SP artillery systems developed by ST Engineering Land Systems, including the 155mm/39 calibre Primus tracked SP, the 155mm/52 calibre FH2000 fitted with an APU, and the more recent Pegasus 155mm/ 39 calibre Light Weight Howitzer (LWH), which is also fitted with an APU to assist its deployment in marginal terrain.
Singapore has additionally developed and fielded the locally developed 120mm Super Rapid Advanced Mortar System (SRAMS) integrated onto the rear of its Bronco tracked all-terrain vehicle.
Both Indonesia and Malaysia have now deployed the Brazilian AVIBRAS ASTROS ARS, which fires a complete family of unguided rockets, while Singapore has now taken delivery of the Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control M142 227mm (six-round) High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), which fires guided rockets fitted with a unitary warhead.
Field artillery traditionally fires high-explosive (HE) smoke and illuminating rounds and, to enable targets to be engaged at longer ranges, rocket-assisted projectiles (RAPs) and base bleed (BB) 155mm artillery projectiles are being deployed in increasing numbers. Some countries are now insisting that all new artillery munitions are of the insensitive munition (IM) type, which will not explode when subjected to fire.
For greater accuracy, 155mm artillery projectiles can be fitted with a kit such as the Northrop Grumman Armament Systems (previously ATK Armament Systems) M1156 Precision Guidance Kit (PGK). Fitted with a deep well fuze, this gives a circular error of probability (CEP) of 10m or less, enabling targets to be engaged with precision effect and less collateral damage. The use of a PGK means fewer artillery projectiles are required to neutralise the target - in turn reducing the logistic burden.
Older bag-type propellant charges have now given way in many countries to a modular charge system (MCS) or bi-MCS, which are especially useful when being used with an automatic ammunition handling system.
When used with a 155mm/52 calibre artillery system, a maximum of six MCSs would be employed to achieve maximum range, while a 155mm/39 calibre artillery system would require only five.
The deployment of new artillery systems with larger calibres, having longer ranges and firing more effective ammunition, is only one part of a complete artillery system. Target acquisition is still key and the rapid detection of targets at longer ranges can be very difficult, especially in some of the terrain conditions encountered in the region.
While forward observation officers provided with portable target acquisition systems - consisting of day/night observation devices, laser rangefinders and navigation systems - are still used, targets at longer ranges have to be detected by other means such as artillery location radars and unmanned aerial vehicles, which can relay target information in real time.
Increased emphasis is on joint fires, which not only includes artillery and mortar assets but also fast jets, attack helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles and in some cases naval gunfire support. While close-air support is very valuable, it is only the field artillery that can rapidly provide indirect fire support on a 24/7 basis in all weathers.

Guarding the seas [ID18D1]
GÜNTER ENDRES
06 November 2018
Danish company Terma (Hall D, Stand D185), a provider of naval command and control systems, including combat management, surveillance, counterterrorism, interdiction, maritime picture compilation, and search and rescue operations, is displaying its C-Flex Command & Control, C-Guard Naval Decoy and Scanter X-band radar systems. Its team here is headed by president and CEO Jens Maaløe and Anupam Narain Mathur, vice president and general manager, Terma Asia Pacific.
Terma's Scanter X-band navigation, surface search and short-range air surveillance radar systems have proven small target detection capability to assist authorities in efficiently monitoring illegal activities such as drug trafficking, smuggling, illegal immigrants, piracy, illicit fishing and terrorism. It is suited for high-definition sea surface surveillance and shortrange air surveillance for helicopter control and ship navigation. Scanter provides back-up to primary surveillance radars and has a versatile interface capability for C-Flex and other onboard systems.
Scanter radars are operated on land and at sea by the Indonesian Maritime Security Agency, the Indonesian Sea and Coast Guard, the Directorate General of Sea Transportation, and Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International Airport.
The Indonesian Navy has chosen the Terma C-Guard decoy launching system to protect its strategic assets against missile attacks. C-Guard ensures 360° coverage and will effectively counter advanced threats such as small-range gate radio frequency missiles, imaging infrared missiles and next-generation torpedoes. C-Guard relies on combat-proven 130mm NATO decoys and a proven mechanical launcher design without moving parts.
"Terma has a proud history as supplier to Indonesia's defence, and we are looking forward to further developing relations with the defence establishment and the Indonesian industry," said Maaløe.
