Should be the standard AShM across ALL main surface combatants.

Hopefully if the NSM live firing test is successful the Navy will equipped those AH140s and FREMMs with NSM.My wish for NSM as a standarized missile strike armament while we licenced the atmaca and manufacture it here for a coastal defence batteries .. as precursor for our own indigeneous Ashm .
My wish ...
Now that's a smart move. So NSM for our future ship standard missile.
Kongsberg need to do more maneuver to enter Indonesian market, won't be easy to compete against MBDA(exocet) product here.
I am okay if we keep using exocet, unless...
There will be exocet,Taseo,NSM , and posibly Harpoon ( bawaan platform if they given away it to ,but it is a big if ).and i still waiting and hoping for another upcoming big deal for the ID navy.
Destroyer
1500 ton?
1500 t? different from PAL document which stated that the weight will be around 2000 t.
Maybe some typo, for who cant differentiate between CM and AM variant1500 t? different from PAL document which stated that the weight will be around 2000 t.
So the deal is "effective"?
And they don't say anything about lithium-ion batteries apparently.
So they want more than AAW "IVER" vrygate?One of them are LRAD and MERAD system, but some influence planner though it is better to procure high end Frigates and Destroyer especially one with ABM Defense capability to handle such task

Now on the 2nd question, what class being offered by SoKor solution if i may know?or the tonnage
If they give us Aegis, seems like they want that ALRI to join their PLAN "chain" containtmentUS is very eager to sold their Arleigh Burke class
The contender is SK and US?Still on discussion and proper planning, never knew if there is another cross over in the final Laps. What i can said, even the US is very eager to sold their Arleigh Burke class,one Made in their own yards to foreign customer, expect unexpected.
What offerings are under consideration for the AShM induction?
Not Brahmos that is for sure, its for a small trimaran after all.What offerings are under consideration for the AShM induction?
French I suppose since you're inducting a fair bit of French aerial and naval platforms while I don't expect the F-15EX deal to go thru...the French also have an extremely powerful defence lobbyNot Brahmos that is for sure, its for a small trimaran after all.
But IMO the winner have high possibility to be used on the new frigate also.
even the US is very eager to sold their Arleigh Burke class
Sadly yes, horizon class and type 45 limited to the 48 vls, while i believe their PAAMS capability having BMD. If we could wait for another decades (which we cannot) Italian DDX or type 83 would be on par or higher than Arleigh Burkethe European countries don't seem to operate the destroyers at the level that MoD wants.
But that could possibly burden our Navy. What if they have to stuck protecting some area when in a same time they are possibly needed somewhere else?Btw there is still several must have item in which doesn't know they can proceed nowadays or must waiting after current shopping spree ended. One of them are LRAD and MERAD system, but some influence planner though it is better to procure high end Frigates and Destroyer especially one with ABM Defense capability to handle such task. One of prominent reason is Naval assets much more mobile, more strategic , can carry other stuff beside those SAM system and can cover many of our big coastal Cities and vital assets when needed. In principil i am kinda agreed with them, after all countries like Indonesia is a maritime country afterall.
