    Casual Discussion It is now the right time to set up Our Very Own "DARPA" Like Org?

    First - Any budget going thru Parliament will carry political burden and political implication. Specially here in our beloved country. Direct or indirect interverence is to be expected. So altho it might look good on paper I dont think realistically its the right thing to do. Keep in mind that...

    Casual Discussion It is now the right time to set up Our Very Own "DARPA" Like Org?

    This is big step, and this is what I mean as well putting "Holding entity" over our various state R&D center such as BPPT, LAPAN, LIPI, etc. This will make cordination between/among them easier, and cordination between kelembagaan/kementrian is one big obstacle we have to take down first. But...

    Casual Discussion It is now the right time to set up Our Very Own "DARPA" Like Org?

    Im with you on this but its a very long shot to aim at for now. Its not that current or previous govt not knowing of whats been going on, but they need political support from TNI and regulating that = shooting your self on the foot, same goes with Polri. To overcome that, one of the way is to...

    Well you just open another Indonesia Pandora box 😁 I dont think things like DARPA/DAPA, Israel way empowering their def private sector, can do the trick considering economic scale limitation of our def budget. Take some of those and combine on how China did it on early 90's might do the trick...

    Well the combination of multiyears systems and omnibuslaw can make things happen. How can you commit to long term procurement where you have to deal with annual budget systems? Both system has just been implemented and it might reflect to the 2021 onward defence procurement. He clearly didnt do...

    Well, getting someone outside political party will do the job most of the time. BUT he/she would get hard time navigating towards the goal as it would be challanged by "the force" alias yg punya kepentingan disana. Fishery is a big business from political party, oknum loreng, pengusaha badung yg...

    O & M will increase as one fighter getting more flight hours as it counts on the variables I mentioned and it also increase CPFH as it shares the same denominator. The common assumption is in 1 year different fighters will take the same X amounts of flight hours that count towards the annual O & M.

    Well, I rarely post on other thread there. I have seen the "unbalance" treatmant, tho to me I really dont care much. Arguing with people who live in heavily control media, social media tells me that I would be wasting my time. When one country has concentration camp or as they say "education"...

    Santuy, ya ga gitu juga sih kadang kenyataannya. Kadang diperintah atasannya, kadang sengaja buat bantu anak buahnya, so many things that might cause it. Hard to explain but if you really close to it sometime you can understand.

    Air-Force Indonesia Wants F-35 Jets, But US Pushing F-16s or F/A-18s Instead

    To be honest Im kinda doubt about it as well, I smell a sweet talk. Regardless, perhaps by having the opportunity to get them in the next 10 years it would be more beneficial to us as hopefully our NCW systems already mature enough by then. Tho I do believe if we can maintain stable domestic...

    I prefer we getting the local OPV/Corvette program up and running. As much as we need Fregate/Destro we would also need alot more of those OPV/Corvette. PAL already has her hand on KCR 60, why dont we just use that and copy that Diponegoro class to make 80-90ish meter "new" design? :cool:
