A fine example how Western media always looks for ways to blame muslim and Islam. It's perfectly clear that the main goal is to put Ahok to justice and not to put him to death. All major muslim organizations urge order and calm. Many christians reach and reached high positions. Once the Chief of Armed Forces was a christian, there are multiple christian governors, majors and regents all across Indonesia, including in a muslim-dominated province in Kalimantan. There are also constantly christian ministers in the goverrnment and other high positions.

This news is laughable and way too narrow, despite the PhD status of the writer

PhD status is not a guarantee. See Marwah Daud Ibrahim... Anyway..let's not be too drag down into this issue in this thread...
 
Looking at the specs, Turangga APC looks pretty tough. Even better than Komodo and Anoa in some aspect. Like: V shaped hull, power to weight ratio, max speed and operational range. Unfortunatelly, we haven't heard any deal for this one at Indo Defence 2016.

It's understandable though. The armed forces and Police, even if they are interested, they would wait for the vehicle to mature, tested and proven in the field before they land any deal.

It took 5 years for SSE to develop P2 Commando & APC until they get their contract few days ago.

This multibarrel automatic machine gun uses 7.62 mm NATO bullets with a capacity of 1,500 magasen among other things, 3,000 to 4,400 rounds. M134D is one of the weapons in the world that can not be underestimated. In the standard variant, Dillon Gatling Gun is able to throw a bullet as many as 3,000 shots per minute. This is equivalent to 50 shots per second and there were no weapons in the class which is equivalent to 7.62 mm M134D firepower.

Woah... the army's modernization effort start to take its shape.. and it looks pretty good.

Hardware is getting better... Two thumbs up...

How about the war doctrine ?... The war doctrine leads to battle tactics... Battle tactics usually end up in weapon system adjustment... Which weapon to be bought accordingly...

I am curious to hear an infantry man explaining difference between us infantry composition and our army infantry composition... I wonder, whom army are we reffering to ? British, Germany, US, Russia ?... What is the plus and minus between those... Which one is more adaptable to our condition...

Or might it be that we take a bit of this and that from those advance army... ?
