Relationship between Indonesia and UAE is very strong, the only G20 leaders who is greeted by President Joko Widodo in Airport, but this is not Airport in Bali but somewhere in Central Java. UAE is not part of G20 countries but the country is invited due to Indonesia current position as a G20 President and host of G20 meeting.

Solo, a city in Central Java where Joko Widodo is born and raised.

I dont know why with this armament Prabowo still want to buy F15 EX that has been proven cannot deal with F35 in Pitch Black exercise in Australia this year, even Prabowo had said that KF21/IFX is much cheaper than F15 EX and Rafale.............

Does he know how expensive is the airplane ? How come he wants to be President when he doesnt understand our economic and geopolitical situation ? We should be cautious on him wanting to buy this and that..........

I think and hope Minister of Planning and Minister of Finance will not approve such acquisition when we have already had KF21 program going on...

I am glad that Minister of Planning and Minister of Finance only approve another 12-14 Rafale planes acquisition, extend and upgrade the remaining fighters (F16, Sukhoi, Hawk), and buy second hand Mirage 2000-5.

Our future challenge can only be met with this plane

I dont think Indonesia Planning Minister and Finance Minister will approve Minister of Defense F15EX acquisition plan, but I think Boeing has probability to sell their Wedgetail for our first AWACS in order to make Indonesian Aerospace gets offset of about 50 million USD design works for Boeing that could lead Indonesian Aerospace will be part of Boeing design centers for their product.
