Air power is a must compared to coastal defense unit, Sinkies with their F35b akin to super etendard of Argentina navy in modern terms, they will be lethal and capable (especially when being armed with LRASM in which they had interest on) , the only way to handle them is by sheer air power from long distance

is our SU-35 still a go for that ??

is our SU-35 still a go for that ??

I am not so sure, though i place my bet more on KFX compared to su 35

Sinkies got approved for possible sales of about a squadron worth VTOL F35 variant, this mean in ASEAN there is a country will have operational carrier soon within decade timeframe. Indonesia should made plan based on possible threat assessment even from one deemed very friendly to us, as i said before on international relation only interest will last not friendship.

Maybe they just want to use it for STOL operation from road in case their runway damaged, or yes maybe mini carrier.

Coastal defense is a must.

I prefer naval and air assets, they can easily move around Indonesia.

F35 with LRASM, that's some serious shit.

Talking about F35, maybe you guys interested on this https://wikileaks.org/plusd/cables/08JAKARTA325_a.html


4. (C) Lemkin discussed several U.S. products, including:

-- F-16s: purchase of new models would give Indonesia the
same model that the United States used to protect its own
security, while mid-life upgrades of older Indonesian F-16s
could augment that capability in the medium term at reduced
cost; the F-16s would place Indonesia in line to acquire the
Joint-Strike Fighter in the future. (Reftels detail the F-16
deals under consideration.)

We can, it just how much willingness of our politician to bear such cost

Super etendard is aircraft based fighter, why they not offered Mirage hmmmm.
Used by argentinian in falkalnd and Iraqi

Sinkies got approved for possible sales of about a squadron worth VTOL F35 variant, this mean in ASEAN there is a country will have operational carrier soon within decade timeframe. Indonesia should made plan based on possible threat assessment even from one deemed very friendly to us, as i said before on international relation only interest will last not friendship.

Thai already have carrier but because have problem with harrier so their Chakri Naruabet didnt function well

Singapore as i know has plan for a LHD 170 m

Maybe they just want to use it for STOL operation from road in case their runway damaged, or yes maybe mini carrier.

They always doing exercise involving f15 and F16 take off and landing from highway
Maybe they want use F35 VSTOL (this is very pricey also has problem with bombay that smaller from other variant) for take off in limited space or area

Last day, i read many harrier development article, actually harrier would be used by european and nato as their standard fighter in scenario when many runway destroyed and space limited they can use VTOL aircraft to take off amd landing

Such a doctrine about "air guerilla" maybe
Cmiiw

US dollar touch 13755 rupiah, wish they can reach 12,000 barrier this year. But surely there must be profit taking to follow, but most expert said Rupiah is severely undervalued and need appreciation and US dollar is quite overvalued and severely hampering US export effort and investment thats why Trump several times got in conflict with the FED over this issue

Btw, economy aside, thats means today Indonesia defense budget reach 9,5 billion us dollar with current rate. Keep wish the best lad

Love when she said, bapak gak perlu jelaskan versi Tiongkok, kita punya aturan sendiri, saya produk demokrasi saya gak akan selamat kalau diplomasi kita gegabah, cukup bapak jalankan aturan yang ada, thats the spirit!!!


Meutya Hafidz, ex field reporter and lead journos during her early days, had been kidnapped and being a hostage during Iraq war in 2005 and covered Tsunami Aceh tragedy, now she led First Commision of Indonesia Parliament in which coordinating defense and security issue, well surely she has militant temperamen and never wavering spirit

YOGYAKARTA, KOMPAS — Prajurit TNI bisa melanjutkan pendidikan ke jenjang S-2 dan S-3 tanpa melepaskan jabatan. Hal itu diwujudkan lewat kerja sama antara TNI Angkatan Darat dan Universitas Gadjah Mada Yogyakarta untuk meningkatkan kualitas sumber daya manusia.

Kedua belah pihak menandatangani nota kesepahaman di Rektorat Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) Yogyakarta, Kabupaten Sleman, Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta, Jumat (10/1/2020). Penandatanganan dilakukan Kepala Staf TNI AD Jenderal Andika Perkasa dan Rektor UGM Panut Mulyono.

”Kebutuhan peningkatan kualitas SDM (sumber daya manusia) di Angkatan Darat memang sangat mendesak. Kami memerlukan perwira, bintara, hingga tamtama yang harus punya wawasan lebih bagus karena kompleksitas tugas,” kata Andika.

Ia mengungkapkan, sebelumnya prajurit kerap enggan melanjutkan pendidikan karena harus melepaskan jabatannya terlebih dahulu. Sebab, pelepasan jabatan disertai penghapusan sejumlah tunjangan untuk jabatan tertentu. Ia meyakini, tanpa lepas jabatan, minat prajurit melanjutkan kuliah lebih tinggi.

Kepala Staf TNI Angkatan Darat Jenderal Andika Perkasa memberikan sambutan dalam acara penandatanganan nota kesepahaman kerja sama dalam bidang pendidikan bagi prajurit dengan UGM, di Rektorat UGM, Yogyakarta, Jumat (10/1/2020).

”Menurut saya, program untuk meningkatkan SDM ini (niatnya) memang harus datang dari diri sendiri, bukan karena perintah. Keinginan menempuh pendidikan lanjutan harus datang dari perwiranya,” kata Andika.

Program kuliah pascasarjana itu diikuti 46 prajurit TNI AD. Sebanyak 42 prajurit menempuh pendidikan S-2, sedangkan 4 prajurit mengambil S-3. Pangkat para prajurit mulai dari sersan satu hingga letnan jenderal. Mereka bakal tersebar di sejumlah program studi, mulai dari ketahanan nasional, hukum, ilmu sosial dan politik, cyber security, hingga kepemimpinandan inovasi kebijakan.

Menurut Andika, pembiayaan kuliah tersebut sebesar 75 persen ditanggung TNI AD, sedangkan 25 persen sisanya ditanggung prajurit yang menempuh pendidikan lanjutan. Skema ini dianggap mampu mendorong prajurit untuk berkomitmen menyelesaikan kuliahnya.

Singapore buy 12 F35B to replacing their F-16
