The paycheck obstacle.Just curious, is there any obstacles for us to get meteor?
Meteor is a consortium buid missile, so do we need to get approval from each country? Is it difficult?
this is less interesting since there is no larbug bundaran hi anymoreThis EX procurement number keep changing. 15, 36, 8....VIDEO: TNI AU Akan Punya Tempur Rafale Buatan Perancis
Sejumlah persenjataan baru dan modern akan segera dibeli untuk memperkuat Tentara Nasional Indonesia.m.cnnindonesia.com
I see. Thanks.I'm not so confident about getting AGM-88's, If I recall correctly for some reason South East Asian states aren't really able to get AGM-88's even Singapore hasn't been able to get their hands on them. However, both RMAF and RSAF routinely practice flying HARM profiles despite not having AGM-88's in their inventory, something the TNI-AU should consider doing as well. If we do go with both Rafale and F-15EX, then the SEAD role will probably go to the Rafale, since the Rafale can do it equipped by using its SPECTRA EW suite and normal guided munitions. Which is why we should probably get GBU Paveways, more JDAMs and AASM Hammers for both the Rafale and F-15EX. A game changer for us I think if we also acquire JSOW for the F-15 and SCALP for the Rafale.
With Rafale and F-15EX in the mix, its almost certain that our Flankers would be out of the picture sooner or later (they are going to be 30 years old soon anyway) and the way I see it the Rafale will be the one that retains some of our Flankers capability when it comes to SEAD and anti-shipping with conventional AShM's. Also MICA IR can replace the role of R-27 in the TNI-AU as our long range infra-red missile (this will come in handy if we have to go up against stealth adversaries)
We don’t have to buy many, even all its user don't bring it often. At least we have.The paycheck obstacle.
they actually pronounce rafale like -khafal-Actually how do you pronounce Rafale? Is it ra-fa-le, ra-fal, ra-fa-el, re-fe-le, re-fel, re-fal, ra-fel, or what?

I personally have always used raphael lol.
Because of TMNT (grew up watching) and also excellent painter too lol.
Yea, I have a feeling of rather intense discussion happened between Mindef and TNI specially TNI-AU regarding fighter jet purchase. One clue I see is when they created Life Cycle Cost discussion. I believe this discussion was held to get all stakeholder perspective in line.

What put a smile on my face is I dont see Eurofighter words in the latest statement. That used platform might be affordable to get but rather expensive to maintain and upgrade in comparison to its cost to capability. Like I always said before the replacement for Heavy Fighter SU-35 op req, capability is only F-15. Im Glad Mindef and TNI reached an agreemant
