for now 5.56 still good for use. the current intermediate ammunition are design when body armor are not common but with GWOT and all of that stuff, body armor becoming more common up to the point that regular civilian can have them. that and afghan experience led them to US Army NGSW program. ...

yea, peace ops in Mali more like combat mission than regular peacekeeping ops, that's why most nation involved in peace ops there are well train and equip nation like French, UK, Germany, Sweden, Canada, Dutch, Denmark, China and more. it's like in the early day of Afghanistan (2001-2006) when...

CMIIW here, as far as i know, there's no AIP equip scorpene in service right now. only india that going to equip their scorpene with DRDO AIP but that in 2023/24.

MTCR limit the missile/uav capable delivering payload at least 500 kg and range at least 300 km

i don't think, but i like the idea of using martadinata-class as a template for our patrol vessel, albeit an expensive patrol vessel.

CMIIW. all of the hull would be produce in turkey right? then shipped to indonesia.

it going to be a problem. if you force an engineer to quite a tight deadline they would have cut something to finished the job, what cut it is? that what i'm concern.

we sure it gonna finished before 2024? most FREMM ship got 3 years construction time and 1 year of testing and commissioned. if it started constructing this year it probably would finished in (mid/end of) 2024 but i don't hear any news about construction started this year, is it?

so about Storm Shadow / SCALP, due to MTCR what is being nerf out? range or payload?

For air patrol fake block 52 is enough until 2045 (if we maintain it good and keep upgrade it). we cannot rely solely on rafale and F-15 for regular patrol it going to make a dent on our wallet. somewhat what @Umigami said below make rafale and F15 (as 1st line fighter) do the fancy stuff...

there is not much specialist ship on the market, most of them are multirole or modification (development) from AAW / multirole into ASW ship. type 26 one of them that i can think of who are designed as pure ASW (at least uk one) or french fremm. most navy post cold war started shift their...

as of now, the news that it only for spec ops (possibly other special recon unit who not part of SF, i.e. taifib) which in it self are quite large. CAR 816 it self are not cheap. my opinion; better spend money on body armor, helmet, optics or personal radio than buying a new gun, not to mention...

if we buy scalp, are we gonna got the nerf out version or not? with MTCR and all of that sort of thing

news that for specs op only, rumor that is Indonesia SF gonna standardize on CAR 816.

well, iver can be fitted with 48 vls without the need for stretching it by placing 16 vls on the front where 2nd 76mm gun are now (from one of the concept proposal for royal canadian navy). but i think the navy wanted to put a gun (ciws?) over there, that is where the option to stretch the ship...

not to mention Mr. President himself are good friend with sheikh mbz.

they had hull, but not towed. tho they can be fitted with CAPTAS-2 towed sonar like the mexican one

original plan (at least on AF side) they gonna be replace in 2024-2025 with F-16. with additional FA-50 for new LIFT squadron. but now i'm not so sure what replace it, 08 really unpredictable.

rumor that is, RAF are renting out (possibly sale) some of their MRTT. if we interested on that.

hopefully it's true and it F-16, don't introduce new class of aircraft again (nightmare).
