well since KCR-40 the design update and advancement have made little progress, i dont mean to underestimate the vessel designers in Indonesia and i know that the KCRs (both 40 and 60) are made from different shipyards but seems to me that they are just copypasting the design of SIGMA corvette...

Well considering that most of our neighbors are NATO-based equipped, we do need compliance to such standard to ensure common interoperability between armies which are important especially considering the threat from our exact northern hemisphere anyway i never thought that we are also starting...

Most likely it is a Rheinmetall MG42 conversion which were included with our order of Rheinmetall-made G3 used by PGT since i never saw any mention of MG3 as part of the order to Rheinmetall during the Leo/Marder acquisition But same as you, i never thought MG42/3 were in TNI inventory

Well, since the threat of PLAN, PLAAF, CCG and Maritime Militia incursion becoming more apparent especially in Natuna Utara seems like Prabowo is all in with modernizing the Navy, especially with the target of replacing the ageing VS and Fatahillah we'll see whether between 2022 to 2024 he will...

Japanese land-based SSM seems to be promising, or maybe land-based Brahmos i do wonder why does Marinir seems to be coming back to Ukraine again and again despite the unsatisfactory result of BTR-4, are they trying to maintain relation with post-soviet states in the hopes that those states can...

I wonder why does Indonesian ship design seems to be stuck with a big, wide and tall superstructure like that, both Kerambit and this OPV seems to be taking their design cues from SIGMA's design

based on my friends testimony working in one of SK's biggest electronic company, they are pretty much like the Chinese in terms of social interaction (condescending or underestimating at best), even at times most of my friends said that some Chinese working as hard labors are much better than...

I read somewhere that Tacticos CMS is going to be used in our Iver's design, might as well chose Type 31 variation since it's already on going (hope that Terma won't be mad about this choice lol)

Considering the current government's relationship with China especially in economic and infrastucture area, i guess this influx will stay for some time Is there already a risk mitigation plan or some kind of list of "suspicious" person in the government in the case there is social disturbances...

Will the VLS be a part of the contract or separate? i can't imagine a vessel as big as 30FFM but have its VLS space empty just because it is FFBNW and in a separate contract.....it just becomes like an overglorified long range OPV rather than a frigate but talking about compatibility, i think...

talking about Coast Guards, is there any planning (either in the near or long future) to merge Bakamla, KPLP and PSDKP..... i know that each entities are under different ministries and have different specific functions (and egos for that matter), but would it be better for them to merge their...

wasn't there some disagreement within AL/Kemhan regarding the performance of Nagapasa? is it already rectified?

Upgunning naval ordnance is a surefire and cheapest way to do that to be honest, but i suppose we also do need new ships to at least either mount those RBUs or maybe modifying our LPDs/LSTs or KCRs to mount 122mm MRLs to provide saturation fire for beach landing Russia have that system at the...

I just do hope that it won't be the same with our F-16 Block 30/32 being renamed to Block 52ID, that would be hilarious seeing us receiving 15SG/J/K model but renamed to either 15ID or 15EXID lol I do agree, and as FPXAllen said, redundancy and logistical nightmare is pretty much our...

Hope there would be some guy in PAL who can design and offer a modified KCR-60 fitted with Pindad's 122mm MRL in its back to replace those aging Parchim with the RBU-6000, considering that mass beach landing is pretty much our Marine's go-to tactic nope, i was talking about the congress' or...

So with the acquisition of 15EX and Rafale it seems that the grand strategy AU chose will go towards multirole-capable with A2/AD functions it seems, basically an aircraft that can do everything through modifying its weapon suites to perform two or more functions in one sortie If as such would...

Talking about VLS wasn't it because the US doesn't give its approval on the use of Mk41 on REM or was it because some sort "part of the package" thing I do wonder whether there's still this fear of US/EU embargo on defence products in the armed forces or not since it seems that the current MoD...

Soviets when the snow starts speaking Finnish Americans when the trees starts to speak Vietnamese ???? when the dirt starts speaking Indonesian oh wait, according to our highly respected representative, we won't have wars for 50 years, so why bother

We do need ASW focused ships to replace those aging museums, i don't want to see another getting burned up or stricken after hitting something.....seems like MoD is focusing in multirole and AAW/ASuW aspect ships in the mean time

Naaah, i'm not into Russian fanboy stuff, just mentioning one of the possible conditions that might arise on Indonesian request of 15EX and also taking into account the KF-21 drama going on getting rid of Su-27 and Su-30 is a good choice, but then again what would fill that gap since 15EX is...
