Defense
In September 2015, the Indonesian government said it would buy a squadron of Sukhoi Su-35 fighters to replace its outdated U.S.-made F-5 Tigers. Jakarta also plans to buy 5 Russian submarines.

Initially Indonesia looked at buying Kilo-class diesel electric submarines, but later chose the more advanced Amur-class submarine, which is the export version of the Lada-class.


Russia is ready to loan Indonesia $3 billion for these purchases.

According to industry analysts, Indonesia may also be looking to buy medium-range anti-aircraft missiles. The country already has a number of Sukhoi fighter jets, Mi-17 and Mi-35 helicopters, BMP-3 amphibious infantry fighting vehicles, one BTR-80 wheeled amphibious armored personnel carrier and Kalashnikov AK-101 and AK-102 rifles.

Nuclear energy
In June 2015, the countries signed a Memorandum of Understanding on the construction of large nuclear reactors and floating nuclear power stations.

In an interview with RBTH Indonesia, the country’s ambassador to Russia Djauhari Oratmangun said nuclear power plants could help meet Indonesia’s growing demand for electricity.

Infrastructure
Russian Railways has a 50 percent stake in the Kalimantan Rail Company, which is building a 300 km-long railway line linking Central and East Kalimantan provinces.

By 2019, the company plans to finish around 190 km of the railway line and construct a seaport terminal in East Kalimantan for coal exports.

During his visit to Moscow in September 2015, the governor of East Kalimantan Awang Faroek Ishak said his province would also like to use the railway to export palm oil, timber and other resources. Passenger services are also under consideration.

i will take it seriously right now, this administration had shown their preferences toward Russian machines

Definitely not a bad choice. The Russians have one of the finest military systems in the world. They are often imitated, but never duplicated.

yes indeed, but looking at broader pictures

Indonesia right now is purchasing a lot of military machines from aboard and so much different supplier

i just wishing this kind of procurement doesn't become a burden in future

 

[MarveL]

not in near future i guess.

 

[pr1v4t33r]

If we wanna get 12 submarine before 2024, this purchase is necessary.. We'll get Amur 950 or Scorpene 1000, along with 209/Changbogo.

But with $3B credit export from Russia, the chance is greater for us to aquire Amur than Scorpene.

Not necessary so.. Since we are building closer defence cooperation with China too. Plus this month Mr.President will definitely bag some deal around defence cooperation with Obama.

i personally think we need a plan to get Submarine Tender for all the subs. let's see.. Cakra Class, Chang Bogo , Amur Class, Scorpene, and Drakon. yeah, we definitely need a plan or two for Submarine Tender.

i personally liked this Drakon subs. IMO we need 200 of these.

Drakon 220 is newest design of submarine, a spiritual successor to Una class, twice as large and has torpedo tubes, crew of 9 and additional 4 with in mind for special forces. Indonesia is interested in the sub. Possibly Croatia and Indonesia will cooperate and do a TOT.

I just recently found out that my country has a capable self sustaining military industry though not capable of producing helicopters nor jets...

For the Drakon to even be considered there need to be a separate bid.

My guess for Indonesia's submarine forces configuration 2024
For minimum requirement of 12 units:
- 2+3 (209/Changbogo)
- 5 (Amur 950 / Scorpene 1000)
- 2 Midget subs (Drakon, etc?)

Either way Indonesia will have the most powerful navy in the region.
