TNI AU DAN RSAF JAJAKI PELATIHAN PILOT UAV DAN ‘AIR REFUELING’
31 AGUSTUS 2018 DIANEKO_LC 1 KOMENTAR
TNI AU dan Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) tengah menjajaki kemungkinan dilaksanakan pelatihan bagi pilot pesawat terbang tanpa awak (UAV) kedua Angkatan Udara.

Hal tersebut tetuang dalam sebuah pembicaraan bilateral antara Kepala Staf Angkatan Udara (Kasau) Marsekal TNI Yuyu Sutisna, S.E., M.M., dan Chief Of Air Staf (RSAF) Major General (MG) Mervyn Tan di Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) Singapura, Kamis (30/ 08).

Dilansir dari laman TNI AU (31/ 08), Tidak hanya pelatihan pilot UAV, pihak RSAF juga menawarkan latihan bersama air refueling (pengisian bahan bakar di udara) dengan pesawat A-330 Multi Role Tangker Transport (MRTT).

Menurut kedua pemimpin Angkatan udara, hubungan TNI AU dan RSAF dalam beberapa tahun terakhir menunjukkan intensitas yang sangat erat.

“Kami merasakan sejak kegiatan flypast bersama pada perayaan 50 tahun hubungan bilateral Indonesia – Singapura tahun 2017 lalu, hubungan kita makin erat” kata Maj Gend Mervyn Tan.

Kepada koleganya, Kasau yang didampingi Asrena Marsda TNI Fachru Zaini SH..M.DS, Aspam Kasau Marsda TNI Dwi Fajariyanto, Asops Kasau Marsda TNI Johanes Bercham dan Atase Pertahanan RI di Singapura Kolonel Pnb Tjahya Elang Migdiawan, menyatakan sangat tertarik dengan tawaran RSAF.

“TNI AU akan segera menindaklanjuti secara teknis. Kami juga berharap adanya kerjasama untuk rekrutmen penerbang dan pengoperasian pesawat UAV, termasuk pesawat A-330 MRTT” ujar Kasau.

Only air refueling training with same classes with A330 MRTT

In the end it depends to MoD and Airforce decision,not us.

They went to train on boom refuelling operations.

The A330 unfortunately can only operate on 75% of our air bases compared to the KC-46's 90%. Also the Air Force has more experience operating and maintaining Boeing jets.
 
producing more of this thing and their 60metre Patrol Vessel counterpart in large number could counterbalance the northern neighbour fishing militia Fleet .

the only problem is, this kind of boats should be operated by white hulls organisation not the Navy.
 
I wish that our Navy and Marines will become world class with it's own distinct quality, that will surely make a good use of our Maritime nation identity and Archipelagic state.

The only equesterian unit in Southeast Asia lol. I could imagine many ways they could be utilized, but first of all this Cavalry unit certainly prefers smaller breed considering their supposed field of operation, mainly in forested and mountainous area deep inside where wheeled vehicles wont pass through.

So naturally, scouting will be their main job, even quick raid against poorly armed rebels? Perhaps equipping them with explosives like light grenade launchers, C4, Claymore or whatever will add their shock capability (reminiscent of Napoleon era grenadier cavalry), imagine these forest hut dwelling rebels got suddenly struck with grenades attacks from a mobile mounted troops, they will certainly went into disarray quickly and will lose their effectiveness in defending their position.

US army cavalry still retain their horse detachments, for ceremony purpose but they still being trained to slash with saber and shoot with revolver while on horseback. India army still deploying their horse regiment. Well Prabowo will take a liking for such idea

More useful than a lot of our heavy vehicles tbh.

Wouldn't RSAF make more sense? Isn't RAAF themselves is a recent boom operator themselves? With only has the E7, P8, and C-17 with boom capable aircraft, previously its the Hornets/SH with P&D.

I prefer KC-46 over A330
Indded. IF the current issues can be resolved, the KC-46 sure has a lot more potential I feel, with a potential bulk discount from Boeing if the E-7 and P8 to go ahead together, plus it suited better to our infrastructure.
