Never heard anyone (or any company) or ever seen any of Pindad heavy machinery. And IMO Pindad should just focus in it core business instead of diverging too much. For example IIRC Pindad still importing gun barrel from South Korea for all their firearm lineup . It still baffle me as why Pindad or Indonesia gov't doesn't try to get any ToT for firearm barrel particularly rifle barrel

Well, I think the reason why Pindad diverging their product is because they are searching for more profit. Even before this, Pindad has already produced other machineries.... Also mining explosives and railway products. They even make their own electric motors for car, but the car itself hasn't entering production.
The user of Pindad heavy machineries are there... from state-owned corporation to project-related companies... We just don't see it outside that circle too much. I'm not quite sure about marketing, most companies here are more used to foreign products.

pindad has been making commercial product since the 80s... might even be before that.

the excavator is only one of the newest product. you might've never seen it where you are, but it doesn't mean nobody buys it

theres nothing wrong with having branches in your company. if you just started a company you might wanna focus in one sector but as your company mature you will eventually realized that you should branches out toward different sector. and pindad is not the only defense industry in this world that branches out to sell commercial products.

Do you know anyone that uses these Pindad heavy equipment? Live around jakarta & use the highways a lot but yet to see any pindad heavy machinery.

Likewise, are the people who use pindad heavy machinery happy with them?

If I remember correctly Ridwan Kamil mentioned something along the line of using this excavator for Citarum river in Kabupaten Bandung.

It's been a while since TNI/Polri use SS-series in Africa/Lebanon, or other countries which have different climate with Indonesia.

I wonder if there is any feedback from TNI/Polri to Pindad about SS-series performance in those countries, especially in dessert condition, and if there are any improvements made by Pindad based on that feedback

SS series is long piston, meaning they will "self cleaning" just like AKM. But that doesn't mean you should neglect the usual maintenance, it just for field maintenance it's not as intensive as those with direct impingement

Afaik, Su-35 never intended for Makassar, from beginning it always for F-5 replacement. But yes some news wrote that will be placed in Makassar for time being till its intended base completed

I think it's not just about keeping it clean/Jam-Free, but also other things like their accuracy in hot climate (like G36C case for example), etc.

I always wonder whether that G36C procurement was mostly due to German political lobbying (included along with Leopard 2 maybe..?). I mean H&K lineup are mostly overrated & grossly overprice anyway , even the MP5 series weren't original design either
