Indonesia Defence Forum

Yes but still need even more firepower tho, considering the vast sea territory we have. I wonder if Penerbal would ever operate Jet aircrafts, namely Poseidon or even Naval fighter (IFX Naval version?), but anyway that would be saved for later, getting them in proper quantity and fully equipped first should be the priority obviously.

Penerbal in the past operating this beast

I am rather inclined for the Navy to operated something like Poseidon and if they want fighter something like Super Hornet (coupled with growler) is the best choices among all of the possibility , but looking at pitiful state of our Air Forces that still a distant dreams.

The number of Penerbal assets is indeed still at lower side of the Navy requirement even when compared to their peak standard in early 1960's, when they operated vast array of complex assets like ASW helicopter, MPA aircraft, Torpedo bomber fighter, ASW aircraft, utility helicopter and other assets in rather large number.

Wah that's the jet statue i see everytime i went to Surabaya. I think it's more about budget priority regarding the Air assets (well obviously), maybe we could count on Prabowo's ego and dream to take care of that, but idk about his own priority considering he was....literally Orba military manifested (in his track record), Infantry-focused, and he seems to just started to fit in the current era (i feel that he's a bit kudet), as his previous statement indicates that he kind surprised that the defense industry got much better post his era, and i think his statement about we're "always" behind in tech, is kinda off, as technologies can be learned, and we're doing exactly that atm.

I would really support the idea that the Navy would be able to field strong and complete array of assets, espc ASW/Strategic MPA and Naval Fighters, cause that would lift the Air Force's burden on Maritime defense, and will strengthen the Navy's capability in coastal defense and Maritime power projection. Having the Air Force also handling the Sea is too much imo.

Dont know much about prabowo as personal, i just happened to met him couple times in the past in some occasion. It just when he is explained for defense matter is all about effort and not only pray, i think i can expect much from him more than the previous one

From the first meeting with 1st Commission. there isn't anything of substance from Prabowo yet. He did however sound as someone with gran plan in mind but he still haven't elaborate further.

Teguh menuturkan, sesuai tema AARM 29/2019 ini, "Together We Can", format lomba AARM yang pada tahun sebelumnya bersifat lomba antarnegara/kontingen, kali ini dibuat berbeda. Yaitu, bersifat eksibisi menjadi empat tim A, B, C, dan D. Masing-masing tim terdiri dari gabungan 10 negara peserta.

“Sesuai arahan Kasad Jenderal TNI Andika Perkasa, perubahan AARM kali ini tidak lagi kompetisi tim antar negara-negara ASEAN, melainkan eksibisi kemahiran dan kerja sama tim dalam menembak. AARM 29/2019 kali ini lebih pada mencari bentuk kerja sama tim gabungan 10 negara ASEAN yang dibagi dalam empat tim," tutur Danpussenif.

AARM 2019 will be held in Indonesia, it will have new format (Team vs Team) participants from 10 ASEAN nation will be divided(maybe random) into 4 team and they will compete against each other.

Indonesia gak bakal jadi juara umum lagi, yang bakal menang adalah tim dari ASEAN.
Panglima TNI berikutnya bakal dari AD yak?

I like his statement more then Prabowo last statement. Once we can setup the base system then all others will follow. This will automatically reject any future non-integrated item purchase, and this system should be build on kemenhan political power to stand in the middle and accomodate all the branches need thus creating a platform that can be use by them. I believe it will speed up the process of network centric program.

D&S 2019: Indonesia eyes US and Russian fighters
13th November 2019 - 12:07 GMT | by Gordon Arthur in Hong Kong

SAVE THIS FOR LATER

The Indonesian Air Force is ogling new Lockheed Martin F-16V Block 72 fighters from the US to boost its aerial capability as part of the nation’s 2020-24 strategic plan.

ACM Yuyu Sutisna, Chief of Staff of the service, stated when visiting Roesmin Nurjadin Air Base in Pekanbaru on 28 October that the country’s MoD was planning to lodge a request with Washington before 1 January 2020 for two squadrons’ worth of aircraft.

No specific number was mentioned, but two squadrons could represent around 32 F-16Vs.

‘We will buy two squadrons in the next strategic plan 2020-24. We will purchase the newest type of Block 72 Viper,’ reported the state-run Antara news agency. Sutisna added, ‘[They] will increase our strength. If we have them, we will be among those having sophisticated F-16s.’

The proposed acquisition comes under the third and final phase of Indonesia’s Minimum Essential Force strategic plan, with new aircraft needed to replace the Hawk 109/209 trainer/light attack fleet.

Indonesia’s air force already possesses up to nine F-16A/B Block 15, 18 single-seat F-16C and five twin-seat F-16D fighters. The former are the oldest, having been obtained in the 1980s, while the latter two Block 25 types were ex-US aircraft acquired as Excess Defense Articles from the US after they were offered in 2011.

A total of 24 TNI-AU F-16C/Ds were upgraded with Link 16, self-protection suites and modular mission computers under a FMS package laid out by the USAF and amounting to $750 million. This work was completed in late 2017, and the aircraft are flown by Aviation Squadrons 16 and 3 in Pekanbaru and Iswahyudi respectively.

In a separate fighter acquisition, it was reported in February 2018 that Jakarta had ordered 11 Sukhoi Su-35S fighters in a $1.1 billion deal, but a contract is still yet to be signed with Russia.

The Su-35s are supposed to replace now retired F-5E/F Tiger II interceptors, and the Russian platform was competing against the likes of the Eurofighter Typhoon, F-16 and Saab Gripen.

One issue delaying the project is the threat of Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA) penalties by the US if Indonesia goes ahead with the acquisition from Moscow.

Jakarta would prefer to pay for these aircraft by bartering local commodities (e.g palm oil, rubber, coffee and tea) as well as by cash. The government also stipulates an offset package worth 35% of the contract value.

The Indonesian Air Force already flies five Su-27SK and 11 Su-30MK2 fighters obtained from Russia, with the last handed over in 2013. Some of these have recently been upgraded in Belarus.

Indonesia also has a financial interest in South Korea’s KF-X fighter programme, of which a mock-up was unveiled last month at the Seoul ADEX exhibition. Jakarta has been attempting to offer PT Dirgantara Indonesia-built CN-235 transport aircraft to Seoul to help defray expenses there, of which its payments are running behind schedule.

In October 2018, Jakarta stated that it would renegotiate its stake in the KF-X programme with South Korea because of ‘national economic conditions’. No new arrangements have been agreed upon yet, as far as Shephard understands.

Untuk di Kepolisian sendiri, posisi dipertimbangkan untuk dijabat satu tingkat lebih tinggi adalah Korps Brimob. Sebab Brimob akan ada penambahan anggota yang awalnya 48 ribu menjadi 60 ribu personel,

"Itu kalau dipimpin bintang 2 kan tidak pas, harus bintang 3," jelas Tjahjo.

Reformasi Terus Berjalan
Tjahjo mengatakan reformasi di di tubuh TNI-Polri harus terus berjalan. Untuk TNI, Tjahjo mengaku telah menuntaskannya saat mendisposisi Yasonna Laoly sebagai Menkum HAM. Namun untuk Kepolisian, Tjahjo masih mengkajinya lebih dalam.

"TNI, bintang 3 tambah, bintang 2 tambah, saya sekarang kaji bagaimana untuk Kopassus, Marinir, Phaskas, yang jumlahnya (anggota) di bawah Kostrad, kalau di Kepolisian nanti akan menambah 1 (posisi) untuk bintang 3, dan untuk 4 posisi bintang 2, tetapi itu sedang kami bahas dan kaji," Tjahjo menandasi.

President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo makes a call on a mobile phone. (Twitter/@jokowi)
President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo opened up about the ups and downs of being president at a forum with journalists in Central Jakarta on Thursday.

At the discussion, which focused on infrastructure and human resource development, the President said that he often called his ministers in the middle of the night to discuss infrastructure and other matters.

When asked how late he would call the ministers, Jokowi said it depended on the day.

“It can be at 1:00 a.m, midnight, 2:30 a.m.,” he said. “If it is difficult [to reach] the minister, I’ll tell their aide to wake them up. It’s common for me to do that, just ask the ministers, the [Indonesian Military] commander, the National Police chief. The most recent is the Army chief of staff, whom I called at 12:30 a.m.”

He said that he often worked late into the night and would remember some important matter and call the relevant minister or official to ensure that the issue was handled quickly.

Jokowi said the long hours he kept caused him to sleep less than he did before becoming president.

“I often sleep in the car. [On the trip] between Jakarta and Bogor [Presidential Palace] I can get some sleep. On the plane I can sleep around 30 minutes. I can also sleep on helicopters. Others can’t,” he said. “At night, it’s true I sleep less, but alhamdulilllah [thank God] I am given the pleasure of being able to sleep anywhere.”

When asked if he enjoyed the country’s top job, the President joked, “I enjoy it. I enjoy the headaches.” (kmt)

They are getting tired and feel hopeless of seeing Indonesia as overall champion again and again, so changing the format is the answer, maybe. LOL :D

Perhaps they're hoping to able to "steal" Indonesia's winning secret by mixing together with. ;)
