The current SIGMA frigate design being built by PT.PAL is strictly Damen IP, we can't export this ship. But, I believe PT.PAL can make it's own SIGMA derivative design later when the transfer of technology complete. Today, 2 out of 6 modules are still built by Damen.
After we complete the 2nd frigate, from what i read previously, PT.PAL will be able to built the whole module in its facilities in Surabaya. Currently, Indonesia also developing a Warship Design Center, which i believe will be benefiting from the past experience and technology transfer that we already accumulate to create our own world-class warship design.
The latest news circulated in Indonesia, said that the Warship Design Center currently in the process of designing a 150 meter heavy frigate/destroyer. Unfortunately, there's no further detail.
Ok thanks so you guys are attempting to mass produce a SIGMA derivative design?
