    Indonesia Indonesian Air Force, Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Udara (TNI-AU)

    Eh? For real? Well I say if we have finalized the deal for 2 sqa of F15EX then by all means sell those Russians. 36 Rafale and existing platforms upgrade can hold the numbers upa for a bit while we strive for getting total of 2 sqa of F15EX. And if that 6 Eagle EX really arriving this year its...

    Ever heard about asymmetric warfare? Im not saying anything about closing the strait. There was once an era where the "piracy" over malaka strait somehow got bloomed. This event followed by accusing Indonesia not being able to maintain security in their own area thus bringing the idea of having...

    It also foolhardy to generalizing geopolitics dynamics in this case. French is better diversification then Russia for us, to think that we would be safe if we go all US made is also debatable if not questionable. For now its our best bet imo. Money talks, but National interest isnt all about...

    Ga juga, concern utama kan stabilitas kawasan. Kalo satu daerah bergejolak takutnya ada ripple effect ke kawasan, macam arab gitu lah. Politik itu ujung2nya rekonsiliasi/jalan tengah, mereka yg pegang senjata iso sak karepe dewe. Bisa aja revolusi tapi ya itu, bikin gejolak kawasan. Mungkin...

    Too early to tell, but those def lobby safari by mindef surely pointing on that direction. I do see the signs of us getting closer tho, and I do believe MoFa will try their best to get there. Lets just hope they dont get "takcled" from within 😁 With todays dependency of EW it is understandable...

    The existance of AWACS would be great if most of our area already covered with GCI. It would be wise to reach the acceptable number of GCI esixtance then move to EWA. We are lacking on GCI and still have the "opa-opa" knida GCI operating until now.

    Yea, but the main point is both mindef and TNI-AU have reached agreemant and understanding. That alone greatly reduce the possibility for other party/faction to change the plan. In this business where billions of dollars going to be spent there is always someone or something trying to get the...

    Yea I hope it materialized. With the SU35 saga, statement from former air force chief of getting Viper by the beginning of 2020, Im very glad it all come to this. Now only one saga left, that is KFX/IFX saga 😁

    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...

    I have a feeling this time its a different "thing". They can release "leaked" statement to media, but rarely I saw "leaked" statement being thrown in Rapat Pimpinan/Formal Meeting opening, specially the one with Pangab and all Kepala Staff present. TNI need strategic assest and it would be...

    I think it would end up in how much local work we are going to get for the deal. And by saying that the chance of getting decent local work might be slim if we purchase both in small quantity numbers. So yeah, small chance to get them both. India has been offered to have licensed for Rafale...

    Sama aja mas, lah batch pertama aja harga bisa beda mayan jauh dari kesepakatan awal. Ujung2nya budgeting utk distribusi jd ditinjau ulang kabar burungnya. Negara produsen dah pasti mendahulukan domestik, sisanya buat eksport yah pinter2nya kita diplomasi. Vaksin merah putih juga setau saya...

    Komoditi panasnya Vaksin, karena demand > supply, bisa jadi ada penjual/negara yg mengaitkan dengan paket vaksin (spekulasi liar ala obrolan warung kopi). Dah gitu lembar rupiah lagi tipis, musti ekstra hati-hati tahun ini. Batch pertama vaksin dah ok, yg kedua ini takutnya ada "terms &...

    Hehehe, ya sejarah kita juga nunjukin paska kembalinya Papua, pertahanan kita bahkan moncong senjata lebih mengarah ke dalam dari pada keluar. Ancaman utama yg dilihat & sepertinya masih valid sampai sekarang adalah disintegrasi, insurgency, walaupun kadar ancamannya telah jauh berkurang. Tp ya...

    Yah ini mah pedoman aja sepertinya, harus dituangkan lagi seperti ke white paper, perubahan dokrtin pertahanan secara umum dan khusus (kesatuan/matra). Implementasinya yg bisa jadi masalah karena kepentingan/ego sektoral. Kalau mau pertahanan semi independen di setiap pulau besar maka...

    That 130 T also include some account payable from last year projects that has been experiencing some budget cut (delayed payment). But hey good steak is always a yes from me 😁

    Kenneth Conboy really make some interesting books, the one about RPKAD is also interesting. When we combine those with autobiography of some generals such as Benny Murdani and others we could connect the dots and see how we can conduct overseas intel ops with good results back then. That...
