they also had another solution with 3 operator + 18 submarine crew (made by FET, but supplied as whole system including the mothership by SMP).

the one for indonesia definitely a very big SRV.
The whole system here refers to ROVs, Rescue Chamber, A-frame, Decompression Chamber - Medical Bay. To my understanding SMP is skilled with the latter but has no experience on SRV itself. So they are likely going to work with FET again.

If so, how it will be land-transportable. Does it really matter for Indonesian Navy to transport this through land? It will likely be air transported in case of two ship existing.

yeah, we're going to get the A400M anyway.

More like SMP here acting as main contractor while they subcontract some of the system/sub-system to others, IINM the deal also include a mothership which SMP also doesn't have in their catalog.

The deal is for two SRVs, one is integrated with a mothership and the other are paired with modular frame to be airlifted to nearest Vessel Of Opportunities (VOO). The land transport thing are mostly going to be from base-to-airport followed by destination airport-to-port then to be load up on any available VOO.

This also confirm the Ocean-going Survey Vessel with sub-rescue capability the navy announced a while back, most likely these research vessel could be used to host this modular SRV as VOO when the need arise.

Western-made Subs also have a universal/standardised rescue/escape hatch for DSRV to dock, right?
The hatch and chamber is common among western submarines (i believe, so far as i have seen). However, i may not guarantee this for nuclear subs since i haven't seen one in person. The compatibility is more about the A-frame where the SRS-DSRV is attached to. But an 50 person SRV does not fit to my understanding if the escape chamber can fit 20-25 person. I am not sure if the escape chamber can be opened at the both end at once (there is usually a mechanical restraint at both ends preventing this like the torpedo tubes), and i am also not sure if the hatch can be closed and opened multiple times at a single visit (but should work by leaving a person inside to close and secure the hatch before opening the end connected to the submarine. They should have thought these details before opting for 50 men capacity.

If i remember correctly the survey vessels usually have an A-frame readily available thus they will airlift the decompression chamber and the SRV itself. (and whatever required for a rescue mission).

@Anmdt any details or info regarding sub launched atmaca ?
Not before than 2025-2026, possibly after improved block of Akya HWT has been delivered. Tests may be conducted in 2025 but i may not guarantee when it will be introduced to the service. TN hasn't yet made a choice whether they opt for IIR or RF seeker on sub-Atmaca either.

Which one is better for modern Submarine like 209 or 214, high automation or less (more crews) ?
If man power availability isn't a problem, is less automation better?

less man power needed could also mean longer operational endurance (especially for food stock/supply on the ship).

I heard some rumors our new submarines will use more men than original version.
