Ammunition

• CAGR of the Indonesian market for weapons and ammunition during 2007 – 2012 was 9 percent.
• PT. PINDAD (state-owned company) holds the biggest Indonesian market share for ammunition, mostly in small calibers.
• Together with Rheinmetall, PINDAD build the Leopard ammunition plant for the Asian market.
• PINDAD exports ammunition to America, Singapore, Thailand, Laos, and Nigeria.
• The import market for weapons and ammunition in Indonesia is mainly supplied by France and the United Kingdom.

The weapons and ammunition market in Indonesia had average annual growth of 14% in the 2000-2011 period, with government support for the industry being one of the key growth drivers.

Total market size quadrupled over that time period and accounted for US$0.558 billion in 2011. According to data from EuroMonitor,CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of Indonesia’s weapons and ammunition market was 9 percent during 2007 – 2012. Along with growth in product prices, the market has experienced constant expansion since 2000, despite the global financial recession in 2009. Indonesian corporations remained the largest and most important buyer group, strengthening their importance from 75% of total market sales in 2000 to 84% in 2011. Household purchases increased in absolute numbers, yet their importance remained largely unchanged from 2000, on average reaching 12% of total market sales during the review period.

The country’s ammunition market is dominated by Indonesia’s state-own defense company PT. PINDAD, one of the biggest ammunition manufacturers in Indonesia. Its government-owned status makes it easier for them to penetrate markets such as police officers, army and other law enforcement sectors.

This situation makes the level of competition strong, despite the fact that PINDAD´s product portfolio is quite limited and their production focuses mostly on small calibers. Their competitors have the most opportunities in bigger calibers and in ammunition for imported weaponry, with which it is more common to use higher quality ammunition. Thanks to strong business relations between Indonesia and the United States, PT. Pindad also exported some ammunition to the U.S. in 2011 — one million rounds of ammunition worth US$ 200,000 to a sport shooting club. In addition, PINDAD continuously exports 5.56 mm ammunition to Thailand and Singapore. In 2000, PINDAD also exported to Nigeria.

In the import market, France and United Kingdom are the main players in Indonesia. Those countries exported about US$23.988 million out of a total of US$41.885 million during 2013. In January 2014, Indonesia imported bullets and ammunition worth US$56,800. Imports from Germany accounted for US$39,200 and Russia reached US$17,600. Weapons and ammunition that are usually imported include bombs, grenades, torpedoes, landmines and missiles. Other imported weapons and ammunitions are artillery weapons (guns, howitzers and mortars), rocket launchers, flare launchers, grenade launchers, revolvers and pistols, and rifle bullets.

An initial cooperation agreement in 2012 for the procurement of 180 units of Leopard tanks and Marder, the Indonesian government successfully attracted Rheinmetall of Germany to help build a Leopard ammunition plant. According to Deputy Secretary of Defense Sjafrie Sjamsoeddin, this cooperation will develop a large-caliber ammunition (120 mm) plant in Indonesia. PINDAD will become the center of Leopard ammunition distribution in Asia. This cooperation will improve the technical quality of Indonesian domestic defense industry, helping Indonesia become a regional power in the defense industry market.

DEW Completes Keel-Laying for Eight Bangladesh Navy High-Speed Patrol Boats Under Licensed PT Lundin (Indonesia)

Dockyard and Engineering Works (DEW) Narayanganj, the Bangladesh Navy (BN)-owned shipyard, announced recently that it held a keel-laying ceremony for eight high-speed patrol boats for the BN.

The boats are being built to the X12 design under a technology transfer arrangement with Indonesia's PT Lundin (North Sea Boats), which secured a contract to supply 18 boats to the BN and the Bangladesh Coast Guard in 2014. The contract is valued at IDR75 billion (USD6 million), according to Indonesian media reports. IHS Jane's reported in November 2014 that this contract also has an option clause for 10 more boats.

The fully composite X12 design is based on PT Lundin's X15 patrol boat concept, itself derived from the Swedish Combat Boat 90 (CB90) concept. The use of advanced composites in constructing the high-speed patrol boats to Bureau Veritas classification rules will be a first for DEW.

PT Lundin's X12 design (what is perhaps a new monohull design) is being built in two variants for Bangladesh - a 'combat boat' version for the navy and a full cabin variant for the coastguard. PT Lundin confirmed to IHS Jane's that two X12 craft for the Bangladesh Coast Guard were completed earlier this year at its facility in Banyuwangi, Indonesia.
A graphic of the patrol boats, released by DEW, shows a full cabin superstructure instead of the truncated superstructure arrangement on the X15. At the same time, ceremonial banners and data boards from the keel-laying ceremony on 24 May clearly show the 'combat boat' variant of the X12.

The X12 boats are 11.7 m long and 3.5 m in beam, draw 0.835 m of water, displace 10.2 tonnes fully loaded, and have a top speed of 35 kt. They have a waterjet propulsion system powered by two Volvo Penta engines producing 320 kW at 3,500 rpm, which drive the waterjets through ZF gearboxes. Electrical power is provided by two 6 kW Cummins diesel generators. The boats are equipped with two 765-litre fuel tanks.

The boats are likely to be fitted with two or more machine guns - one mounted amidships atop the cabin and the other(s) mounted aft on the deck. The DEW graphic also shows a small mast-mounted radar.
While the DEW release did not provide details on delivery schedules, Indonesian media reports (citing PT Lundin sources) suggest that the boats will likely be completed in about 12 months or so, using a parallel construction approach.

Weapons-Maker Pindad Says Overseas Interest in Indonesian Rifles on the Rise

Sritex expected to export to five more countries this year

Publicly listed textile manufacturer Sri Rejeki Isman, known as Sritex, is to further expand its export market to at least five more countries in a bid to boost its total revenues by a minimum 10 percent this year.

President director Iwan Setiawan Lukminto revealed on Monday that Kosovo was the company’s newest overseas market, the country in the first quarter ordering military uniforms, which contributed 20 percent of Sritex’s total sales last year.

“We’ve already exported to Kosovo. Next is Cambodia, which is expected to buy 100,000 military uniforms,” Iwan said, adding that the company was also in negotiations to export garments to Australia and several African countries.

Sritex, which is also engaged in midstream segments like spinning, weaving, finishing and garment production, currently exports 48 percent of its products to around 30 countries in Asia, including Papua New Guinea and Timor Leste, the Middle East, including the UAE and Qatar, Europe, including Germany, Sweden, Norway and the Netherlands, the US and Africa.

Following the expansion plan, the company targets a 7 to 10 percent increase in sales to between US$594 and $611 million and an 8 to 15 percent increase in net profits to between $49 million and $52 million this year.

Last year, Sritex booked $555 million in total sales, up 23 percent from a year earlier, with profits jumping 50 percent to $45 million.

“Garment-finishing products are the most lucrative segments in our production, so we will boost exports of uniforms and fashion garments,” Iwan said.

This year, Sritex has spent $104 million in capital expenditure (capex), partly on a factory in Sukoharjo, Central Java, to boost the production capacity of its finishing segment to 20 million yards per month, from a current 10 million yards per month. The rest of the capex will buy several new operational machines.

Sritex finance director Allan Moran Severino said that the country’s economic slowdown had not greatly affected the company’s performance, revealing that it had booked a 7 percent increase in sales to $166 million and a 12 percent increase in profits to $14.8 million during the January-March period.

“We use dollar-denominated transactions and 40 percent local raw materials,” Allan said.

In domestic sales, Allan added, the company only sold uniforms to institutional buyers such as the country’s largest taxi operator Blue Bird Group, state-owned postal firm Pos Indonesia, cigarette producer Djarum and state institutions including the Indonesian Military (TNI) and National Police (Polri). “The rupiah’s depreciation mostly hit manufacturers selling to retailers,” he said.

Meanwhile, the company’s overseas buyers include Japanese trading company Marubeni Corporations and Belgian textile trader Chemitex for spinning, as well as India’s yarn and fibers manufacturer Filatex Co and Turkish garment producer Sunteks for weaving.

Customers in the finishing segment include Chinese textile company Shengrun Textile, while fashion customers include retailers like Swedish-based H&M, US-based Macy’s and Japan-based Ito Yokado Fashion.

Sritex has allocated $86 million for next year’s capex, expected to be sourced from internal cash, to enter the retail business, expanding to downstream textile operations by acquiring local or global brands.

“We prefer to buy existing brands. Starting our own brands would be more difficult as we would need designers, outlets. We’d rather buy brands that already have all that,” Allan said, adding that the plan was expected to launch next year, as the company was still searching for suitable brands.

Next year, Sritex is optimistic it will reach its targets of a 21 percent increase in sales and a 31 percent rise in profits, and claims to be the archipelago’s biggest textiles player.

According to the company’s data, Sritex is the top manufacturer company in Indonesia because it had the highest revenues during the first quarter this year, defeating its competitors PT Ever Shine Tex Tbk with $10.2 million in sales, PT UNITEX Tbk with $4.5 million, PT Apac Citra Cantertex Tbk with $42.3 million and PT Pan Brothers Tbk with $75.76 million.

In the global market, Sritex competes with India’s Vardhman Textiles Ltd. and Arvind Limited, China’s Shenzhou International Group and Texhong Textile Group Ltd. and Taiwan’s Makalot Industrial Co. Ltd.
