This submarine has only been in service for 5 years, but during that time it also barely operated and became a hangar queen, then there are many damages and must be thoroughly checked, you can conclude it yourself whatever if you still want denial.
"With the continuation of this ORE program, it is hoped that a comprehensive analysis of the damage to the Nagapasa-class submarine can be conducted, thereby providing solutions to the core problems of the submarine itself".
Statement from Fleet Commander, Rear Admiral Iwan Isnurwanto at the...
In fact, the submarines have caused significant detriment to Indonesia. Aside from having very minimal TOT, numerous technical damages were found in all three submarines. Consequently, they have become hangar queens, requiring Operation Readiness Enhancement (ORE) for repairs at an estimated...
Purchase of 12 Anka drones, which may also include the transfer of technology for the development of the Elang Hitam. Above all, this agreement must be beneficial to Indonesia, don't repeat the last one 👀
Not just a recommendation, the CEO of PT PAL clearly said that the second batch of Changbogo negotiations had entered the final stage, does it make sense for him to spread fake news?
Here are the key points from the podcast by the CEO of PT PAL with TirtoID:
📌 Renegotiation of DSME 209/1400 (Batch 2) has entered the final stage.
📌 The construction progress of Merah Putih Frigate (FMP) has completed 23 blocks out of a total of 160 blocks.
📌 The combat system for FMP is still...
During the US-led multinational exercise Formidable Shield 2017, the KRONOS Grand Naval radar, installed on board of Italy’s “Luigi Rizzo” FREMM Frigate, demonstrated the ability to detect, classify and track with outstanding accuracy the tactical ballistic missiles (TBMs) launched during the...
Instead of radar, does HISAR/SIPER have at least ATBM capabilities just like Aster 30 block 1?
obviously, Indonesia will have a BMD capable ship if it buys the Italian PPA (Aster 30 NT, MRBM).
As far as I know, AH140 Indonesia is FFBNW, so the $1.1 billion fund can be added or revised in the future for the procurement of the weapon system.
And I think the reason is not the financing, because before there were also a number of topics regarding the procurement of TRS-4D & NS200, or...
I'm still wondering why Indonesia is trying hard to use unproven weapons from Turkiye, why not just mimic Poland's configuration?
Dual Radar SM-400 & NS-50
32 VLS SAM (can be with 16 vls quadpack CAMM-ER & 16 vls double pack CAMM-MR, 96 missiles)

In short,
F-16 have glass V (RCS 1.2 m²) + IRST21 > It can guide AIM-120D (160 km) to take down J20 without the need for using a radar.
J20 > Needs to activate radar to detect F-16 (No stealth anymore, detectable by F-16 RWR). J20 radar range for F-16 (RCS 1.2 m²) is likely between 150-200 km...
Ternyata IRST yg Taiwan beli untuk F16 Viper sudah bisa guide AIM-120 C/D, artinya bisa kill J20 dari jarak 100km+.
Ngeri2 sedap juga bagi China.
