State –owned ship builder PAL Indonesia sent on Tuesday a second warship from Surabaya to Manila that had been ordered by the Philippine government. The first ship was sent in May last year.

PAL Indonesia spokesman Bayu Witjaksono said the ship was initially to depart in mid-April.

Bayu, however, said the delivery of the warship was ahead of its deadline in June.

The ship is equipped with a sophisticated weaponry system and helipads for three helicopters and a hangar. It is also equipped with landing craft utility and can transport various war equipment, such as military trucks and amphibious assault vehicles.

Philippines plans to order 2 more SSV for troops HQ and hospital ship from PT.PAL Indonesia

Liputan6.com, Jakarta Indonesia melalui BUMN, yaitu PT PAL Indonesia (Persero) telah mengirim kapal perang jenis Strategic Sealift Vessel (SSV) kedua ke angkatan militer Filipina. Kapal itu dinamakan BRP Davao Del Sur LD 602.

Deputi Bidang Usaha Pertambangan,‎ Industri Strategis dan Media Kementerian BUMN Fajar Harry Sampurno mengungkapkan, pesanan kapal dari Filipina tidak berhenti di situ. Harry mengaku Indonesia masih memproses pembuatan kapal pesanan Filipina ke 3 dan ke 4 dengan tipe yang berbeda.

"Sudah ada pembicaraan dengan Filipina, rencana ada SSV 3 dan SSV 4," tegas Harry saat berbincang dengan wartawan di kantornya, Selasa (9/5/2017).

‎Dijelaskannya, meski dua kapal yang dipesan itu memiliki tipe yang sama, namun Militer Filipina menginginkan memiliki fungsi khusus. Satu sebagai kapal yang berfungsi sebagai rumah sakit, dan satu sebagai markas pasukan.

Dalam kapal rumah sakit ini, nantinya dijadikan cover kesehatan bagi para pasukannya yang tengah melakukan operasi di daerah-daerah pertempuran.‎ Di dalamnya akan ada laboratorium hingga ruang perawatan.

Sementara untuk kapal markas pasukan, nantinya akan digunakan militer Filipina dalam memberantas perompak-perompak di perairannya.

"‎Nanti juga dilengkapi dengan senjata. ‎Filipina ini negara kepulauan seperti Indonesia, sehingga pemberontak-pemberontak akan dimasukkan ke kapal, sehingga tidak perlu turun ke darat. Nah SSV ini cocok," papar Harry. (Yas)

Will Philippines Get More Indonesia-Built Warships?
Indonesian official says more vessels may be on the way.

The Philippines may soon get more Indonesia-built warships after the successful delivery of two vessels over the past two years, an Indonesian official said earlier this week.

As I have detailed before, in 2014, Indonesia’s state-owned shipbuilder, PT PAL, won a $92 million contract to deliver two Strategic Sealift Vessels (SSVs) to the Philippines. The inaugural export of locally-built warships was seen as a major boost to Indonesia’s efforts to build up its domestic shipbuilding industry (See: “Indonesia to Export First Ever Warship in Boost for Shipbuilding Industry”). It was also a much-needed addition to the Philippines’ military, which remains one of the weakest in the region.

The first SSV, called the BRP Tarlac, was sent through last May, and the second one, the BRP Davao Del Sur, was delivered earlier this month (See: “Philippines Receives Second Indonesia-Built Warship”). This is despite the fact that the deal was rocked by a corruption scandal which surfaced in April in a blow to the reputation of Indonesia’s shipbuilding industry.

On May 9, Indonesian media outlets cited Fajar Harry Sampurno, the deputy for mining business, strategic industries, and media in the country’s ministry of state-owned enterprises, as saying that the ship orders coming from the Philippines do not stop there. Speaking to reporters following the successful delivery of the Davao del Sur, Sampurno said that there had been talks with the Philippines for the country to receive a third and fourth SSV.

Sampurno offered few additional details about specifics, including the timeline for delivery and what they would be used for. But he did mention that these orders may have different specifications than the first and second ones.

According to previous specifications that were released by PT PAL, the SSVs delivered to the Philippines measure 123 meters long with a beam of 21.8 meters and a draught of six meters. In addition, the vessels have a full load displacement of about 11,583 tons, a maximum range of 9,360 nautical miles, an endurance of 30 days and a top speed of 16 knots.

Thus far, Philippine officials have said that the SSVs will be useful for various areas, from serving as a floating command-and-control ship during humanitarian assistance and disaster relief to taking part in operations against militancy and piracy in the Philippines which are already ongoing.

I think Indonesia makes good rifles. You should export to India and let them replace their INSAS.

Mudah2an segera ada konfimasi dri pihak pembeli...

Lebih bagus lagi kalau dari kita bisa kasih pinjaman ke PH jadi langsung G to G dan ambil dari pt pal gak perlu tender2an lagi..

Sinergi antar BUMN (ie, Bank BUMN / Lembaga Pembiayaan Ekspor Indonesia + PTPAL / PTDI etc) akan sangat efektif untuk export produk dalam negri

If i remember correctly, the original plan for Philippines navy was to acquire 6 units SSV. Thus more project would come underway in the future. That plan also include bigger size vessels. If PT.PAL can complete malaysian MRSS project successfuly, that could also become template for future projects.

Plus, PH won't use tender process for similar project. CMIIW.

United Arab Emirates Buys 100 Million Pindad Small Caliber Ammunition

BANDUNG - United Arab Emirates buys 100 million small caliber ammunition to PT Pindad (Persero). Currently Pindad plans to increase the capacity of ammunition production to meet export needs.

Secretary General of the Ministry of Defense (Kemhan) Rear Admiral TNI Widodo admitted, some countries have entrusted the purchase of defense equipment to Indonesia. Like the United Arab Emirates who order 100 million small caliber ammunition.

Then, he said, countries in the Middle East are planning to buy tanks. "Currently Pindad has not been able to meet these needs, because they have to buy some more machines to achieve the expected production. This is a future challenge, "Widodo said in Bandung, Tuesday (8/15/2017).

Widodo hopes Pindad is capable of producing self-sufficient medium tanks and sold in bulk in 2019. Including Pindad's plan to produce amphibious tanks and refinement of special underwater weapons.

"Pindad has long-run underwater weapon production for frogman troops, but it still needs refinement to be comfortable to wear," he said.

Meanwhile, President Director of PT Pindad (Persero) Abraham Mose said, currently it continues to strengthen production capabilities by adding machines.

The concept is done through state equity participation (PMN) and partnership strategy. This year, he said, PMN investment through the concept of Great Caliber Munisi (MKB) disbursed Rp135 billion and the concept of Little Caliber Munition (MKK) Rp130 billion.

"The partnership strategy is carried out through BOT (build operate transfer) and JO (joint operation) system to ensure that domestic and export needs are met. For example, for the supply of 290 million rounds of ammunition per year, it is only sufficient for the needs of the TNI. So it is necessary this partnership strategy, "he said.

As for some products, Pindad has stated its readiness. For example amphibious tanks and the completion of the prototype tank boat.

Nepalese Army to get 12 more aircraft

The Nepal Army, which is running short of aircraft, will soon have additional 12 choppers and fixed wing planes, taking the fleet size to 24.

Eight of them will be bought from different companies while four will be gifted by the United States. The NA has already signed a deal with PT Dirgantara Indonesia to buy a 49-seater CN235-220 plane. It also has started the process to procure six--two each Heavy Transport, Medium Transport and Light Transport helicopters--worth Rs8 billion.

Under the category of Heavy Transport helicopters, it will buy two MI-17 under a government-to-government deal with Russia. The MI-17, which is considered feasible in a terrain like Nepal’s, is manufactured only in Russia and is used heavily across the world by the defence forces. Other four--two Medium Transport and two Light Transport--helicopters will, however, be procured through open bids.

The aircraft, according to the Army, will be used for search, rescue and distribution of relief during the disasters. “The Army lacks enough equipment including aircraft for disasters,” Defence Minister Bhimsen Das Pradhan told a press meet on Friday.

Chief of Army Staff General Rajendra Chhetri said pre-positioning of aircraft in different locations of the country will be done once the Army acquires the new ones. During his visit to the United States in April last year, the US government had pledged to provide the NA with four Sky Trucks within two years. Manufacturing of the aircraft has already begun, according to the Army.

The only functioning Sky Truck of the Army crashed at Kolti Airport in Bajura on May 30. The other being repaired by a Poland-based company is expected to come into operation soon.

Senegal wants to buy six warships from PT PAL Indonesia

The government of Senegal expressed interest in buying six warships and four commercial ships from PT PAL Indonesia, first secretary of Indonesian embassy in Dakar Dimas Prihadi said on Wednesday.

Chairman of Conseil dAdministration du Conseil Senegalais des Chargeurs (COSEC), Babacar Ndiaye, has sent a message to PT PAL Indonesia about the interest of his government in the ships produced by the Indonesian state-owned shipbuilding company.

Babacar Ndiaye , who visited PT PAL recently sent the message via Indonesian Ambassador to Senegal Mansyur Pangeran who met with PT PAL President Director Budiman Saleh in Surabaya, Dimas said.

Budiman Saleh said Africa is a potential market for the products of the countrys largest shipbuilding company.

Ships produced by PT PAL is highly competitive in technology and price and its products could be customized to suit the buyers, he said.

In addition, Indonesia has good reputation in Africa after the success in the sales of the CN-235 aircraft of state-owned aircraft maker PT Dirgantara to Senegal. From Senegal PT PAL could make market penetration to other co9untries in Africa.

Ambassador Mansyur said so far Senegal has purchased ships from France and "this is an opportunity for Indonesia to promote PT PAL products in Africa with technology and price highly competitive."

The after sales service provided by Indonesia for its CN-235 aircraft is appreciated in Senegal, strengthened the interest of that country in other strategic products from Indonesia, the ambassador said.

Mansyur said he hopes PT PAL would follow up the message by visiting Senegal to meet the Senegalese officials.

Financing for any deal made could be studied through a third party AD Trade Belgium in cooperation with Eximbank Indonesia.

Budiman Saleh appreciated the visit by the ambassador and his role in promoting the products of PT. PAL in Senegal and other countries in Africa.

He said PT. PAL is cooperating with a Turkish counterpart in producing floating power plant and with South Korea to produce submarines.

He said PT PAL also offers to produce offshore platforms for oil explorations in border area of Mauritania.
