Indonesia approves defence ministry plans to acquire military communications satellite
Ridzwan Rahmat, Singapore - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly
28 June 2016

Key Points
Plans to acquire the satellite were approved on 27 June, according to a transcript of proceedings between Komisi I and the Indonesian Ministry of Defence and TNI, provided to IHS Jane's on the day after.
The satellite will be used for military satellite communications on the L-Band frequency and is targeted for launch in 2019. The satellite is expected to be developed with input from the military and various Indonesian institutions, but Airbus Defence and Space will be fully responsible for its launch.
Upon launch, the satellite is expected to occupy the orbital slot of 123 degrees east longitude. The orbital slot, which has been allocated to Indonesia by the International Telecommunications Union, was previously occupied by the Garuda-1 satellite belonging to Asia Cellular Satellite. However, it has since been taken out of orbit due to various malfunctions.
The satellite's acquisition costs are expected to be disbursed by the Indonesian government over a five-year period leading up to 2019.

Jon Grevatt, Bangkok - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly
28 June 2016
South Korea's Hanwha Techwin has secured a deal to support the country's "localisation" of components for the engines that will power the Republic of Korea Air Force's (RoKAF's) Korean Fighter Experimental (KFX) aircraft.
Hanwha Techwin said in a filing to the Korea Exchange on 27 June that the company has won a contract from the KFX prime contractor, Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI), to localise the production of the engine mounting system and to provide related technical services for the KFX programme.
Under the contract, which is worth KRW241 billion (USD2.4 million), Hanwha Techwin will supply "technical co-operation to support the localisation of the KFX engine development and manufacturing", said the filing.

Bigger defence budget for Jakarta

10% increase to $11b comes amid rising tension in South China Sea
Francis Chan
Indonesia Bureau Chief
The Indonesian military will have a bigger budget this year to add more firepower to its arsenal in the air, on land and sea after Parliament yesterday agreed to raise the country's defence kitty for this year.
The nearly 10 per cent increase to 108.7 trillion rupiah (S$11 billion) comes amid recent tensions in the region fuelled by Beijing's overlapping claims in the South China Sea.
A large chunk of the funds will likely go to upgrades for its military assets in areas such as the Natuna Islands, said Defence Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu yesterday.
China claims almost all of the South China Sea, while Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia and Brunei have overlapping claims.
Land reclamation works started by Beijing on the disputed islands and reefs in the area, as well as activities by its fishermen in disputed waters, have raised tensions in the region over the past year.
Indonesia is not a party to the disputes but became concerned after Beijing in March said the waters around the Natuna Islands, which are within Indonesia's exclusive economic zone, or EEZ, are part of its "traditional fishing grounds".
On the shopping list:
•Sukhoi Su-35 (above) fighter jets from Russia
•Raytheon AIM-120 advanced medium-range air-to-air missiles, or Amraams, from the United States
•Airbus A400M military transport aircraft (above) from Europe
•Diesel submarines from Russia, France and others
•Korean Fighter Experimental or KF-X next-generation fighter jets from South Korea
•ShinMaywa Industries' US-2 amphibious, search and rescue fixed-wing aircraft from Japan
News of the increase in Indonesia's defence budget comes after President Joko Widodo visited the Natunas last Thursday on a warship, in what was meant to be a strong signal that Jakarta is serious about defending the country's sovereignty over its maritime territories.
During a Cabinet meeting held on board the naval warship, Mr Joko asked for patrols in the Natunas to be stepped up. "I want the military and our coast guard to have improved radar technology, as well as better patrol capability," he added.
While there were no references to China as the House passed the defence budget yesterday, Beijing's expanding military reach in South-east Asia has led to rising military spending in the region, according to defence publication IHS Jane's. It has forecast that Asia-Pacific defence spending will increase about 23 per cent to US$533 billion (S$720 billion) annually by 2020, placing the region on a par with North America.
Indonesia, for instance, raised its defence spending last year by 16 per cent, and according to a policy paper by Mr Ryamizard, among his ministry's objectives for this year was to increase Indonesia's defence capability "to face threats and potential threats, and strengthen the country's maritime presence by way of fulfilling the minimum essential force by procuring satellites, drone systems and increased mobility capability".
Mr Ryamizard also wrote that he plans to "step up defence capability in defending borders in Kalimantan, Papua, Nusa Tenggara Timur and the small islands near the borders, with the main priority being the Natuna Islands". Mr Joko's administration stated early in his presidency that it plans to triple Indonesia's defence spending by 2019.
The Indonesian military has a long wish list, which includes potential deals to buy between eight and 10 Russian Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jets, 36 Raytheon AIM-120 advanced medium-range air-to-air missiles, or Amraams, from the United States, and the Airbus A400M military transport aircraft from Europe, as well as diesel submarines, among others.
Indonesia signed a US$1.3 billion deal with South Korea in January to jointly develop the Korean Fighter Experimental, or KF-X next generation fighter jet. It was also reportedly interested in acquiring Japan's US-2 amphibious, fixed-wing aircraft for search-and-rescue operations.

Indonesian armed forces can enter Philippine waters
Arlina Arshad
Indonesia Correspondent
The Philippine government has given Indonesia's armed forces the green light to enter its territorial waters as part of efforts to rescue seven Indonesians allegedly held hostage by Abu Sayyaf militants.
Indonesian Defence Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu, who met his Philippine counterpart Voltaire Gazmin in Manila on Sunday to discuss the hostage crisis, yesterday said: "The Philippines has agreed."
"There is a legal basis for it... It's a concrete step," he said, according to Detiknews.com website. "They have agreed to us entering their sea, and later on, to land."
Seven Indonesian sailors were taken hostage in the Sulu Sea on June 20 by gunmen believed to be Abu Sayyaf militants, in the third such abduction of Indonesians in recent months.
They were part of a 13-member crew that was manning the tugboat Charles 001, which was towing a barge called Robby 152. The other six crew members, along with the vessels, were released.
Indonesian Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi told a press conference yesterday the defence ministers' meeting was "to increase defence cooperation to ensure the safety of boats from both countries sailing in the waters around Sulu".
The defence ministers have agreed to cooperate on rescuing the hostages and preventing a repeat of such incidents, she said.
Ms Retno said "intensive communication and coordination" is being carried out with related parties in both countries, and Indonesia's priority is to ensure the safety of the hostages.
"The hostages are in good condition," she said, adding that they are on the move but believed to be on Jolo island, in Sulu province, about 1,900km south of the capital Manila.
Ms Retno said she plans to meet the new Philippine foreign minister after tomorrow, when Mr Rodrigo Duterte is slated to be sworn in as president.
The Abu Sayyaf, notorious for kidnapping people and demanding millions of dollars in ransom for their return, in April abducted a group of Malaysian sailors in the same waters, releasing them early this month.
The militants also abducted 10 Indonesian sailors on March 29, and another four on April 15. All were released last month.
The latest abduction has prompted Indonesia to extend a moratorium on coal shipments to the Philippines, saying the move will remain in place until Manila can improve security in its waters. Indonesia supplies 70 per cent of the Philippines' coal import needs.
Indonesia's Transportation Ministry has also issued a notice informing all harbour masters that they are "strictly prohibited from issuing permits to all Indonesian-flagged vessels bound for the Philippines, without exception".
