Indonesia to deploy over 14,000 officers to guard OIC summit

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Commander of the Indonesian Armed Force Gen. Gatot Nurmantyo, said that the military and the National Police has increased its level of awareness in preparation for the upcoming Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Summit, which will be held in Jakarta on March 6 and 7, 2016.

"If several countries had issued travel warnings, it is a sign for us to be aware [of potential threats]," Gatot said after a roll call on Tuesday, March 1, 2016. "Officials, including intelligence personnel, have made checks. Once in every three days a suspected terrorist is arrested," Gatot added.

Gatot has also requested army personnel to act quickly in anticipating suspicious action that could lead to acts of terrorism. "Pursuit of suspected terrorists by the TNI, Police, and intelligence agency is also part of enforcing security," Gatot said.

Last Sunday, February 28, 2016, the Police and TNI personnel had shot dead a suspected terrorist during a shootout in Torire Village, Poso, Central Sulawesi.

The indictment also alleges Williams prepared a document falsely authorizing two F-16 brake assemblies to be shipped to Indonesia in violation of federal law.

The indictment further alleges Williams exported several documents, identified in the indictment as U.S. Air Force technical orders for F-16 aircraft. The final count of the indictment alleges Williams converted to his own use, and for the use of another, technical data of F-16 aircraft through the use of an external hard drive containing U.S. Air Force orders. The indictment alleges the items were in Williams' care and possession by virtue of his employment as a program and financial manager at Hill Air Force Base.

Williams, who was arrested on the charges in the indictment on Feb. 19, was arraigned Feb. 23 before U.S. Magistrate Judge Dustin Pead.

He entered pleas of not guilty to the four charges. Trial is set for May 2 before U.S. District Court Judge Jill Parrish.

Pead released Williams on conditions that include avoiding contact with individuals considered either alleged victims, potential witnesses and or co-defendants in the case. He also must undergo a mental health evaluation and complete any recommended treatment, as directed by his pretrial release officer.

The potential maximum penalty for each count of unlawful exportation of goods from the United States is 10 years in prison. False statement in a document carries a potential penalty of up to five years. Conversion of government property has a potential penalty of 10 years.

"The U.S. Attorney's Office represents the interests of the United States in the federal court, and we are committed to protecting the assets and technology of the U.S. Air Force and the Department of Defense," U.S. Attorney John W. Huber said Tuesday.

"Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI) takes allegations involving the illegal technical transfer of Department of Defense aircraft technologies very seriously. Prevention, detection, and/or prosecution of such transfers are essential to ensuring our ability to maintain air supremacy against our adversaries. This investigation was the result of hard work and contributions made by the personnel of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Homeland Security Investigations, IRS Criminal Investigation, the Air Force Audit Agency, the Defense Contract Audit Agency, and the Defense Criminal Investigative Service," said OSI Special Agent Dave Bolton, OSI Detachment 113.

"The primary goal of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Counter Proliferation Investigations is detecting and disrupting illegal exports before they, or the actors behind them, damage U.S. national security interests," said David A. Thompson, Special Agent in Charge of HSI Denver. "HSI is committed to aggressively investigating these violations to prevent unauthorized countries from procuring anything that could harm the national security interests of the United States and its allies."

Bell Helicopter and PT Dirgantara Indonesia (Persero).

Bell Helicopter, a Textron Inc. company, announced an expanded industrial and commercial agreement with PT Dirgantara Indonesia (Persero) (PTDI) that will enable the two companies to expand their support and services in Indonesia to Bell Helicopter operators.

Both companies signed the agreement at Bell Helicopter headquarters in Fort Worth, Texas, on Nov. 30, 2015.

Bell Helicopter and PTDI had an agreement in place from 2012 and this extension further solidifies PTDI’s customization and delivery work for Bell 412 platforms and allows PTDI to enhance its relationship with other Bell Helicopter customers and for additional Bell commercial aircraft models.

Indonesia’s armed forces have long been served through the Bell Helicopter and PTDI relationship and this agreement will allow Bell Helicopter and PTDI to continue to meet the defense and parapublic needs of the nation and its citizens.

“We are very pleased to continue this agreement with PTDI and expand our operational capabilities in Indonesia,” said Bell Helicopter president and CEO Mitch Snyder. “The region represents a significant growth opportunity for sales and operations, and we are pleased to continue our investment in the Asia Pacific market.”

“PTDI and Bell Helicopter have been maintaining its cooperation for a long time; nowadays both companies see growth with the Bell 412 market in Indonesia, so this cooperation is mutually beneficial to both companies,” said Budi Santoso, president director PTDI.

Bell Helicopter has had a presence in Indonesia for more than 50 years and currently fields over a hundred aircraft which are supported by a Bell-authorized customer service facility and two dedicated full-time customer service engineers located in Jakarta, as well as through its Singapore service facility that supports regional customers.

PTDI is one of the indigenous aerospace companies in Asia with core competencies in aircraft design and development, aircraft structure manufacturing, aircraft assembly and aircraft services for both civilian and military aircraft.

Since 1976, in addition to producing PTDI’s owned products (for example CN235 series, NC212 series), PTDI has established cooperation with several leading aircraft companies, including Bell Helicopter.

By having an industrial and commercial agreement, the two companies have agreed to extend the cooperation for the next five years that allows PTDI to conduct joint sales and marketing, customization, aircraft delivery, aircraft component manufacturing and aircraft maintenance.​

Indonesia Explores Chinese Anti-Aircraft Weapons.

Beijing, March 1 (Antara) - The Ministry of Defense is exploring Chinese air defense systems and anti-aircraft weapons to secure vital locations and to strengthen the Air Force Special Forces (Paskhas) base.
"This assessment is part of an effort to fulfill the demands for the primary weaponry defense system (Alutsista)," Director General of Defense Planning Air Vice Marshal M. Syaugi stated during his working visit to China here on Tuesday.

Syaugi revealed that the Air Force had been using the Oerlikon SkyShield MK2, an anti-aircraft artillery developed by the Swiss corporation Oerlikon Contraves. The defense system is used by the Paskhas detachment in Pontianak, West Kalimantan.

During the working visit, the Indonesian Defense Ministry explored the air defense systems: AF902 FCS and PSU Twin35MM.

"Based on what we observed, the offered air defense system is very good. The anti-aircraft weapon also has an explosive power, good accuracy, precision, and effective range," he noted.

As a sovereign nation, Syaugi remarked that Indonesia has the right to fulfill the demand for Alutsista from any country.

"We have the right to buy Alutsista from any country. The defense system should meet the required technical specifications and pass user trials," he remarked.

Moreover, any purchase of Alutsista from overseas should require a transfer of technology and a guarantee of quality.

The Anti-aircraft weapon Twin35MM has an effective range of four kilometers. It is equipped with a sensor unit and can fire 550 rounds per minute.

Lumayan lah, klo itungan dollar sekarang masih dapat $18.7B, masuk 14 besar dunia. Lebih besar dari budgetnya turki & israel, mudah-mudahan postur TNI nanti bisa sekelas dengan keduanya. Plus terbesar di regional ASEAN, pastinya nggak malu-maluin
