Yang bawa protonya ntar Menhan apa disimpan BRIN ya
I'm proud of this one. Took longer to make it than I anticipated.
It supposed to be PTDI, isn't it?Yang bawa protonya ntar Menhan apa disimpan BRIN ya?
So basically:
BRIN: "let's make it a civilian non combatan drone!"
DoD and Air Forces : "BULL SHIT !!" And walk out.
My guess is right on the money, the core problem is in BRIN. Someone new of high position in BRIN most likely get money from foreign drone seller. Sabotaged at its finest.
Some higher-ups in BRIN (probably): "Look guys, the project is still going! It's just that you won't be able to use it for military purposes.
Oh, great timing! See here, I have a shiny new brochure of a military drone that you may interested to buy. Just to clarify, I'm totally not a saboteur and seller who got money from foreign military drone company. Not at all.
Wanna buy?"
Has nothing to do with raw material crisis. I say it’s more on the willingness of lapangan banteng to let MoD sign those contracts without RMP.Jakarta cancels and scales back major defence contracts as raw materials crisis deepens.
The ministry of defence has embarked on an ambitious defence acquisition programme but is struggling to find the funding to honour the contracts it has signed. Airbus, which was set to deliver two A400M by the end of 2021, is the latest company to bear the brunt of this situation. Other deals could also be affected over the coming months as the price of raw materials soars.

Article in bahasa Indonesia ...The latest status of drone Elang Hitam project: Mandek ga ad yg urusin
Started at 51 minutes mark. They've tried the first flight test last year but failed.
You media guys, do something to make this heboh as big as you can and hurt the fragile feeling of those overproud 'karya anak bangsa' boys so that they'll make ruckus and gain big attention. Hopefully once it get enough attention, the project will get restarted.

BRIN was pessimistic that the military specifications desired by the Indonesian Air Force would be met.
Have you read what Umigami posted? It looks like the program is not canceled, but the Consortium is disbanded. That's the likely reason we chose to cooperate with UAE as stated by Shin x Vladilena.And it will never be met now since the project is canceled instead of gradually improving it step by step. F*cking moron!
Or in other words: "Lookie here! We have 'rekanan' who can bring a far better drone than what you can offer!"
Yeah, kinda missed that part. But in my defense, the way BRIN just wants to divert the project to a civilian drone while it has been laid bare in front of their eyes that Dephan and TNI-AU have already been involved in the project from the start almost makes it the same as canceling it altogether.Have you read what Umigami posted? It looks like the program is not canceled, but the Consortium is disbanded. That's the likely reason we chose to cooperate with UAE as stated by Shin x Vladilena.
Did any of you actually believed that consortium would work out?So basically:

Any possibilities here of what they are calling as "civilian" is in fact could be "unarmed"?. This is a typical drone development cycle, first you get something up in the air, at 30k altitude, then slap in some weapons as it evolves and matures.Article in bahasa Indonesia ...
Acting Head of the BRIN Aviation Technology Center, Agus Aribowo, argued that changing the direction of research from combatant MALE drones to civilian MALE drones was necessary because BRIN was pessimistic that the military specifications desired by the Indonesian Air Force would be met. He was worried that the MALE drone which was developed based on previous research would not be used.
"From 2024 to 2025 it will be until certification. It seems that BRIN sees that it is still very difficult for us to achieve the operations and specifications desired by the TNI. We are worried that the fate will be the same as the Wulung drone, which in the end only got certified, but is not used by the user, namely the TNI," said Agus to Alinea.id, Monday (28/2).
Man.. i will laugh really hard. UAE expertise in a MALE drone? What kind of operational capability they have so far that they can even envisage development of a MALE drone?Dump BRIN for UAE expertise?
I did. While I knew that there would be some clashing interests - pre-BRIN formation, that is - but I thought that things would still work out in the end.Did any of you actually believed that consortium would work out?
$80 mil for USAF? will there be price adjustment for the export ver. ?Still waiting for Indonesian
I don't really think so ,neither TAI nor Baykar nor Vestel - but who knows - (the trio which is capable of MALE UAV development and production) is interested in supplying drones to Indonesia anymore, after several failed attempts (not really into detailing, not cool stuff).If that's the case, the drone was planned to use Turkish armaments, so the culprit most likely not Turkey.
Abroad, aka US, note it aside. Going to end up buying MQ-1 and MQ-9 for ten folds prices of what they could develop with native sources and slight assistance from abroad.Probably. But who knows? We can only assume at this point, and will likely remain so until there's an announcement in the coming months that the air force will buy new drones from abroad.
So that's Indonesian IFX camo ?Looks like KF-21 Boramae prototype 005 is intended for Indonesia.
