Need MONEY to buy fuel, ordnance, and spare parts :hitwall:
Well duh.

We will never recognize their claim as stated by our foreign minister, and considering their behavior we need sufficient muscle to walk the talk ( not backing down in North Natuna Sea) and they keep increasing the ante.

Its nice to follow the frigate sinetron, they keep dropping hints and info there and there, while the SU35 sinetron still 'bersambung' ( maybe later will be cleared out during Putin visit ) lets enjoy the frigate sinetron for now, bakal saling tikung menikung offer atau bakalan predictable. : )

Unlike Vietnam who clearly lack of ISR assets and thus relying more on brutes way like deploying large number of their white hulls and naval assets trying to pin point Chinese vessels and chase them to corner them, Indonesia hold more superiority in this regard and can pin point exact location of Chinese white hull fleets. But unlike Vietnam Indonesia is very lacking in the number of white hulls vessels thus this large loophole made China can by pass our over extended nets, if not without the presence of our Navy more Chinese vessels will be tresspasing our territory

Indonesia strengthens maritime patrol in Natuna to expel China's boats

Malang, Jawa Timur (ANTARA) - Indonesia is firmly strengthening its maritime patrol in Natuna waters, Riau Islands Province, to expel China’s fishing boats which illegally operated over the territory, as Mahfud MD, the Minister of Coordinating Politics, Law and Security remarked.

“The patrol will be strengthened. Our vessels currently operating in other regions will be mobilized there to drive them out,” Mahfud said in Malang, East Java, Sunday.

Safeguarded by the Chinese coast guard vessels, Chinese fishing boats have repeatedly trespassed into Indonesia's economic exclusive zone near the Natuna Islands for poaching. The Indonesian foreign ministry has lodged a strong protest over China's recent violation.

The Indonesian naval ships have already been prepared to secure the country's sovereignty though Mahfud noted that the measures taken were not meant to engage a war with China.

“We are not setting a war, but we are driving them out to protect our own areas,” Mahfud said.

The Chinese Government unilaterally claims the Natuna waters as its own by declaring a Nine Dash Line. Indonesia has never recognised this China's claim.

The Nine Dash Line is made by China based on its historical maritime rights. As a result, China claims that the region of South China Sea region which extends around two million kilometers from the land of China to hundreds of kilometers from the Philippines, Malaysia and Vietnam belongs to it.

“China declares that the region is their traditional rights since their fishermen are going there for thousands of years. But what is the principle of that, and what things to prove?,” Mahfud questioned.

According to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) of 1982, the Natuna waters belong to Indonesia’s economic exclusive zone that China, whatsoever, has no rights over the region.

The Indonesian Government affirms that there is no room for negotiating the issues of Indonesian EEZ near the Natuna Islands as Indonesia will always uphold the UNCLOS 1982.

Key Points
  • The Indonesian Navy has commissioned a shore-based 76 mm naval gun
  • It is the first of several weapon types that will be featured at the newly constructed range at Paiton
The Indonesian Navy (Tentara Nasional Indonesia - Angkatan Laut: TNI-AL) has commissioned a shore-based 76 mm naval gun that has been installed at its newly built weapons range in Paiton, East Java.

The gun, which was salvaged from the retired Ahmad Yani-class frigate, Slamet Riyadi , was handed over by Indonesia's state-owned electronic company, PT Len, to the TNI-AL's Doctrine, Education, and Training Development Command (KODIKLATAL) on 6 December.

The gun was commissioned on the same day, a source close to the matter has confirmed with Jane's . It will be operated by KODIKLATAL, and the TNI-AL's maritime operations training command. Slamet Riyadi was decommissioned in August 2019 after 33 years of service with the TNI-AL.

PT Len is the lead integrator of the Paiton weapons range project, and has worked with several other companies in the programme including Italian firms, ICS Technologies and Omnia Engineering. The companies collectively conducted an inaugural test-firing of the weapon on 21 November.

Paiton was previously a small-calibre weapons firing range, and was primarily used by members of the Indonesian Marine Corps (KORMAR). Given the requirement to accelerate weapons competency among TNI-AL personnel, a decision was made to convert the facility into a weapons range for naval weapons of larger calibre.

The 76 mm gun is the first of several weapon types that the TNI-AL plans to operate as training and instruction aids at its Paiton weapons range. The water-cooled weapon has been incorporated with its revolving magazine and feeder assemblies, and a bridge, and combat information centre simulators.

More specifically, the MALE UAVs can also help boost Indonesia’s capabilities in several aspects to address manifold security challenges. As PTDI mentioned at the unveiling, the drone can assist with respect to several challenges including piracy, smuggling, terrorism, forest fires, and territorial incursions into Indonesia.

To be sure, a more robust assessment of the significance of this development will only be possible over time. The new drone is still in the manufacturing development stage, and PTDI president director Elfien Goentoro made clear at the unveiling that specifics, including design details, the exact target date for the first flight expected in 2020, and the certification completion dates for the two prototypes were all yet to be confirmed and could be years out into the future. Nonetheless, given the importance of this development, one can expect it to be continued to be watched closely in the months and years to come
