    MICA is a huge improvement of air defence to our Navy, for the first time we are introduced to air defence VLS via REM Class and later Bung Tomo Class but the range and quantity which bothers me

    It's too far ahead if we want to reach parity with RAAF or RSAF however they are fine model for TNI-AU on shaping decent Air Force should be, it's not that i oppose Rafale and F-15 procurement but those two come at my surprise since all these years we're expceting F-16V.

    If things turned shit backthen over East Timor crisis, RAAF planned to bomb Jakarta, possibly to target vital objects in Capital & Java thus paralyse the chain of command. Indonesia needs to do its howework to establish a credible defence posture especially in Air and Naval sectors

    We are far still from target goal of MEF moreover we want optimum result for our modernisation, too many holes within ourself to be called a proper defence

    Back in 2008 they even wrote about Eurofighter and given PT DI long established partnership with Airbus, we might take it. Then come in 2016 when they brought the model with CFT and in 2020 we made LoI ( Letter of Interets ) on Austrian Eurofighter but in the end we don't go for it

    Well if you follow the original plan as former Chief of Air Staff ACM Yuyu Sutisna as planned in 2019, what you are saying should be the goal but in the end it's not only what the service wants but also politicians above too.

    The only satisfaction i get, they have no plan to modernise Ahmad Yani Class so it means they indeed plan to retire them. Idk what we are going to do on Parchim Class beyond prolonging operational status for them let's say 10 years. They're cramped small vessels with limited purpose given their...

    These things not only already obsolete but also offer no flexibility, during their service in our inventory mostly they serve as patrol units not primarily as ASW units as they were in Volksmarine but then it is no a simple job to replace 14 hulls.
