I am here to say that Indonesia is one of the few countries that are termed as 'developing' who are on their way to prosperity.

Next shopping list in hands, can be varied from time to time it all depending on political situation and the next administrator, but according from some local forum the big items on the list are

1. 2 Unit of second hand Kilo Class submarine
2. 1 Squadron of Su-35
3. Around 4 to 6 Second hand AAW frigate, maybe Bremen Class or OHP
4. one or two squadron F/A 50
5. One or two AAW Destroyer or something like heavy AAW Frigate, the most candidate is DZP variants.

but all of this wishlist can be scrapped any time by the next administration :p

why second hand? your budget is more than double of that from Vietnam.
Indonesian defence budget increases 9% - IHS Jane's 360

and where do you get them?

Time-wise is the answer, you see, in building things like aircraft and ships and tanks, the platforms take the longest time to build. Indonesia could order those in all-new shape, but it may take more than 5 years until all of those ordered things shipped to Indonesia. With the geopolitical situation in the region changing fast, the MoD decided to double the military acquisition in a very short time.

Indonesia bought second-hand platform but put all new engines and hardwares like the F16s and Leopards and NR-class light frigates. Even Indonesia managed to upgrade 1960's NATO-platforms to carry Russian P-800 onyks and its tracking system.

We got most of the platforms from europe, with european economic downturn in the late 2011, the Ministry of Defense predicted a big cut in the defense spending and it did happen. So, when they cut out their budget and deactivated some of their units, we buy them.

Why europe? EU countries stored and maintaned their armaments in a good way and the armaments had never been used beside in training. Premises skipped, we buy them all-new like.

Yup, is like what Nufix has said, and 8 to 10 billion US dollar for military budget is not that big, it is a small sum for an aspiring military power like us. So you must spent it wisely otherwise you can't fulfill all the basic necessity you need the most.

For the Kilo's we have got an offer from the Russian, and right now an inspecting team has been sent to Russia to look for the submarines they have offer to us

For the second hand AAW Frigate, we will looking for the Bremen Class ex Kriegsmarine and Oliver Hazard Perry Class ex US Navy
