Indonesia To Buy German Tanks, Cancels Dutch Deal

[Luftwaffe]

we want leopard guarding borneo border and facing malaysia PT-91M Twardy

Buying $5.4M each German Tanks against Malaysia Army that only operates 48 Tanks, you could have procured MLRS.

Seriously fielding German Tanks against poor PT-91M. The Price is a concern I don't believe the for 100 Tanks the price is $280M it should be around $600M, seems Indonesia government along with German government is lying to the public. Indonesia is procuring these tanks just by going to German Tanks warehouse and looking at them no Trials.

What is wrong with Indonesian government...

I can't understand one thing why on earth Indonesia focus is on developing its Army and Navy but not its Air Force in these modern days both Navy and Army are sitting ducks if they are not backed by really strong Air Force and Indonesian Air Force is almost non existent at this time they should have at least 400 most modern Fighter Planes to defend their Air Space but they are wasting their money in buying Tanks Man I seriously now have to think about mental level of Indonesian Policy makers what are the up to ?

400 modern fighters? Their Singapore neighbour only has 100 fighters of F-16, F-15

Indonesian policy makers assess a much more serious threat from the sea, buddy. A part of their islands is claimed by your new big Red friend. Sea is where the action will take place. Air force will have its role in defensive action where any assault on mainland Indonesia will be dealt by air.

Besides, the assets that Indonesian government is buying, costs billions and everything cannot be modernized at a go. Look at us for example; for all these years Army had all the focus and lion's share in budgets. Now in the last 5-6 years, IN and IAF are getting the focus.

Army's modernization for Jakarta is equally important in case they get invaded.
