C-704 or C-705 is high subsonic missile guided with GPS/GLONASS very accurate missile and it happens sometime few bad parts in a batch messed up the whole show.

Note: C-705's Kill probability is 95.7% means there is no chance of escape once fired at you.

Still i believed China's weapon are one of the best , even western made weapons are also prone of failures

The indonesian imported the C705 missile produce-line from China, their C705 most produced in local indonesia ... u doubt their C705, isn't it ?

This is a case of faulty integration with Indonesia made boat. You can't blame the missile. It is the control system in the boat. More likely a software glitch.

Key Points

• Attempts to launch C-705 missiles from two Indonesian warships during an exercise has failed
• Failures come against the backdrop of increased spending on Chinese-made weapon systems by Jakarta

The Indonesian Navy's (Tentara Nasional Indonesia - Angkatan Laut, or TNI-AL's) attempt to successfully launch Chinese-made C-705 anti-ship missiles from two indigenously built attack craft during a major naval exercise has failed, sources from within the service informed IHS Jane's on 15 September.

The missiles, which were deployed onboard the KCR-40-class missile attack craft KRIClurit (641) and KRI Kujang (642), each failed at different stages of their launches on 14 September.

Clurit and Kujang each fired a single C-705 missile during Exercise 'Armada Jaya' 2016 which was conducted in the Java Sea.

Both attempts were made in full view of Indonesian President Joko Widodo who was there to witness the exercise from onboard the landing platform dock ship KRIBanjarmasin (592). Accompanying him was TNI-AL chief Admiral Ade Supandi, and Indonesian Armed Forces (TNI) chief General Gatot Nurmantyo.

According to TNI-AL sources, the first C-705 deployed on Clurit failed to launch upon command, but fired unexpectedly about five minutes later after the ship's crew failed to observe a misfire procedure.

The missile failed to hit its designated target for the exercise, the recently decommissioned Tisza-class auxiliary support ship, Karimata (960). The second C-705 missile, which was fired from Kujang , failed during mid-flight, and subsequently also failed to hit the same target.

Besides Clurit and Kujang , 'Armada Jaya' also involves the participation of about 7,000 TNI personnel and 39 naval vessels including a Cakra Type 209/1300-class diesel-electric submarine (SSK).

Other TNI-AL weapons that will be tested during the exercise, that runs until the end of September 2016, include the C-802 anti-ship missile that has also been acquired from China.

If true then indonesia really have to look in to their assests and future procrument.
And china has to inspect it retrospectively.

Guys ... I really don't get it !

within less than one hour two nearly exact new threads were started.

Is it such difficult to look at first if there's an already appropriate thread or is there a contest who posts the most ????

Come on guys ... Just do me a favour and help to keep this section simple. Do not start too many new threads if they are not necessary.

Thanks,

It is a damage for Indonesian integration capabilities.

Let's back to 2012-2014, C705 perform perfectly in a firing demonstration then Indonesia choosed the missile. In 2014 Indonesia also discuss with CASIC to produce the missile in Indonesia and other systems but at that time Indonesia already want to produce the missile and market it outside Indonesia.

And the integration problem. Hmmm.

PS. Indonesia also licensed to produce C802 and it seems that they are too eager to export these ships.

It could also be the license product of c705. After all, It is 2 fail at the same time.

 

[Sanchez]

I guess that Chinese experts would be sent to co-investigate the cases. Too early to judge what went faul.

But we haven't realized the transfer of technology contract. So those missiles are still made in China, not made in Indonesia... yet. And this failure will be used by people who oppose to buy China product do demonized China's missile.
