DSA 2016: Indonesia selects Type 730 CIWS for KCR-60M attack craft
The Indonesian Navy (Tentara Nasional Indonesia - Angkatan Laut, or TNI-AL) has selected the Chinese-developed Type 730 close-in weapon system (CIWS) for the first two of three KCR-60M-class missile attack craft, an industry source told IHS Jane's at the DSA 2016 exhibition in Kuala Lumpur on 18 April and this was corroborated with TNI-AL contacts that are close to the matter.

The vessels, KRI Sampari (628) and KRI Tombak (629) will each be fitted with one stern-facing Type 730 turret that will replace two 20 mm guns currently mounted on the platforms. Sampari and Tombak are currently scheduled to undergo a refit, which will include the installation of these weapons, at PT PAL's premises in Surabaya in September 2016.

The Type 730 CIWS is a radar-guided, seven-barrelled Gatling gun-style system that provides a defensive capability against anti-ship missiles and precision-guided munitions. Variants of the weapons are currently in use with a number of People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) warships including the Type 051C (Luzhou), Type 052B (Luyang I), and Type 052C (Luyang II) destroyer classes, and the Type 054A Jiangkai II-class guided-missile frigates.

Also scheduled for the refit in September is the installation of a Chinese-developed combat management system (CMS) that will be linked to the platform's 57 mm main gun, CIWS and missile launcher systems. The TNI-AL has decided to deploy the Chinese-made C-705 surface-to-surface missiles on the service's KCR-60M platform............See more

DSA 2016: The Force grows in Indonesia

Delivery of the first set of URO 4x4 Vamtac ST5 vehicles to Indonesia as part of the country’s ForceShield air defence programme are underway. A spokesperson from Thales confirmed to Shephard at Defence Services Asia 2016 that URO were in the early stages of delivering the first batch of what is a ‘significant quantity’ of vehicles.

Thales is the prime contractor for the programme as the Vamtac vehicles are fitted with the company’s Rapid Ranger launcher and Starstreak air defence missiles.

A source told Shephard that the system is in the integration phase and about 20 vehicles will be delivered. The Vamtac vehicles are just one component of the ForceShield air defence network that will equip five Indonesian Army air defence batteries.

Other elements include the Ground Master 200 radar, fire control system and Land Rovers fitted with the Lightweight Medium Launcher and Starstreak. Integration there is being completed by local Indonesian industry partner PT Len.

A Vamtac 4x4 vehicle fitted with the Rapid Ranger and Starstreak was displayed on the URO stand at DSA exhibition in Malaysia but before the exhibition started the Starstreak missiles were removed and the Thales RapidRanger logo on the launcher was covered up.

It is likely that Thales’ Malaysian industry partner, Weststar subsidiary Global Komited, was unhappy that the system they are integrating onto their GK-M1 vehicle was being displayed on another chassis.

The Thales spokesperson said that it is up to the governments to select which vehicles they want and the Starstreak launchers will be integrated onto them.

A source told Shephard that a ‘small batch’ of Vamtac vehicles are also being delivered to Singapore, but could not confirm numbers. URO is marketing Vamtac to Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore.

The Malaysian Army already has over 100 Vamtacs bought under a contract signed in 2008-09 that include 25 fitted with the Igla air defence system, 60 weapon carrying vehicles and 18 vehicles that tow a 105mm light gun and store artillery rounds.

2019, Indonesia Defense Budget Reach Rp250 Trillion
JAKARTA - Indonesia's defense budget it is still far from sufficient. On basis that, government keen to increase the national defense budget, particularly with regard to the procurement of weaponry systems.

"Our defense budget has always been set at below one percent of the gross domestic product. Our defense budget was once over one percent, but it was later reduced. We will do our best to increase it again," said Chief Political, Legal and Security Affairs Minister (Menkopolkam), Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan noted during a public lecture at the University of Indonesia (UI) in Depok, West Java, Wednesday (20/4).

Luhut pointed out that most of the defense spending was currently being used for employee expenditure, while the amount of funds spent to procure defense systems was still low.

Therefore, Luhut said he was seeking ways to intensify defense cooperation through transfer of technology from countries, which had become weapon suppliers, so that their design capabilities could be replicated by Indonesia.

"The defense budget will continue to be increased. We will raise it from 0.85 percent to one percent until we can increase it to over one percent later. We hope the defense budget would reach nearly Rp250 trillion in 2019," the minister stated.

However, Luhut affirmed that the government will work towards improving the welfare of the personnel employed in military and defense institutions.

He promised to increase the wages of the personnel of the Indonesian Defense Forces and Defense Ministry to makes their salaries at par with the national income level.

"If the budget for procuring weaponry systems is raised, the salaries of the employees should also be increased. Salary my son, who is a major in the Special Strike Forces, for instance, is only Rp6 million per month. It is lower than a bank employees salary, which could reach Rp10 million per month," he pointed out.

The minister believes that Indonesia, as a big country, should ensure that its defense personnel did not face an income gap. Luhut vowed to do his best to bring about a transformation in the defense institutions.

For known, Indonesia intends to reduce defence expenditure by 1.7 percent to Rp95.9 trillion (USD6.7 billion) in 2016, according to figures contained within the draft budget.

The reduction in spending follows a 17.1 percent increase in 2015 and represents only the second time the defence budget has been cut in the last decade.

Draft budget documentation also shows that actual spending on defence in 2015 is expected to reach around IDR102.3 billion, an increase of 4.8 percent or IDR4.7 trillion over the revised budget allocation planned by the government.

As such the draft budget for 2016 ostensibly represents a 6.2 percent reduction compared with the funding provided for defence in 2015..............See more
