same feeling. doesn't want become " anti kemandirian ".." anti produksi dalam negeri "...but hoping some of Boramae will assembly here locally? i keep in my dream
and who are you? you are not just civilian also? one of those engineer? orang dalem?
i thought this forum is free for anyone. not related with any kind of group
IMO if we did not see any single percentage possibility able to produce KFX locally ( with all factor taking into account ) in the future, better just buy it from south korea and get the licensed for maintanance
That's my biggest question up to now regarding KFX...What we get from this program...
i'am not aginst FAC doctrine or so on. but i think with modern naval combat technology, more suitable to limit our Navy combatant to OPV /corvette as the smallest class. So it will be DDG ( if possible ) -> frigate -> corvette/OPV.
Considering our Navy start to had 3000 tonnes above frigate...
I like the option of Pandur with all factor explain by Mado, more over it will have common use between Army and Marines. but i think for time being AAV/KAAV is more suitable proven short solution to replace those BTR.
Its proven, can carry up to 20 soldier, ROK Marines and USMC also still used it.
prime factor rafales comes up to table ( my version ) :
1. Its not US or Russian made jetfighters, why not typhoon? brits still US close ally compares to french bad boy
2. No one in south east asian operate it ( yet )...its a game changer. where as region already had f35 and f15. dont forget...
my bet, with our current relation and procurement, its probably type 45. more less will be the family of daring, horizon and andrea doria. one of it could be the benchmark.
i think army spread it among cavalry battalion. at BCC ( 1st cavalry battalion belong to Kostrad ), marder plot/use as company commander vehicle/command vehicle.
yup...IMHO Boramae or other gen 5 plan to be developed by some country..Turk..Japan..even British Tempest program
though US quiet reluctant to sale to non ally country..but for sure they don't want future market of gen 5 fighter will grab by some country mention above
whatsoever...Boramae didn't fly yet. that's the fact.
so can't comparable with other jet fighters already exist. eventhough T-50 Golden Eagle.
But if we talking only on paper tech. that's OK
