Nah iki, Alexa play When When by Koes Plus I have to agree there, another interesting talking point is in what capacity if any, our domestic industry will be involved in the Rafale deal. Is that the one via direct commercial sale? Glad to hear things have finally moved along, hopefully, the...

Yeah, that seems to make sense. Can we not give them slices in a different pie? Perhaps, like the AEW pie or the MPA pie (as long as it isn't the tanker pie).

CMIIW here, but isn't fighting while mounted in these tin cans is an outdated thing now, with all of the advances in light-AT weapons?

You're probably right, I honestly forgot about the Rafale (still seems like a dream to me wkwkw), my bad. That should be concluded soon hopefully.

Well, both have their advantages and disadvantages, I feel for our QRF like KOSTRAD, medium weight wheeled 8x8 platform with relatively smaller dimension like the Pandur is sensible. I'll leave the heavier track platform for regional KODAM units, replacing their old VCI. Anoa can be the APC of...

Wait, the choice is between the F-15 or SuperBug, not both right? Personally, I'd like us to copy the RAAF path of procuring the main batch SuperBug and a further smaller batch of Growler if the case above is true. That will simplify a lot of the logistic and training syllabus, rather than...

Speaking of 8x8, has the Army ever actually done studies/assessments on operating 8x8 APC/IFV in our operating environment? I know the Aussies weren't too happy with their LAV-25 during East Timor, size and poor turning radius were some of the cited problems, that they had to ship it back and...

It spread quite evenly in terms of capability, it just matters of which platform is better optimized for what tasks.

LOL, he probably catching up to the Primi Minister/Mahapatih meme and trying to be low-key about it. There's still quite a bit of deck space behind the main gun

Pretty detail walkaround of Penerbad's AH-64E Apache

Neither have I, thank god, but I'm aware of the meme lol. Looking at the Indian deal, it took Dassault about 4 years to begin delivery, which is pretty good for us. Meanwhile, the deal with Greece projected to commence delivery in around 3 years' time.

Don't tell me we can't afford to equip these guys with helmet-mounted IFF marker strobe that they had to resort to chem light?

Definitely, and increased ammo capacity is a plus too.

Those NOD's were flipped up though? Besides those gen-3 NODs will function well in low-medium light as well, like in the first picture.

Seeing as the U.S made field arty got mentions, I hope Pussen Armed rebarrell those old M101 howies

There was a time when the Navy (or the Marines rather) trialed the GAU-19 But I guess they prefer the ol' 5.56 GAU-17 as I spot some of those mounted on the RHIB

Yeah but that's the fun and what brought us here together, some of the drama is even better than k-drama wkwkwkwk. Just look at the submarine procurement drama, it's been going on for over a decade, probably almost as long as The Simpsons! Back to the topic on hand. I assume the short...

Source Seeing that contract for production support service for Longbow FCR was awarded in January this year offers a strong clue that the radar is indeed in our inventory and may be currently in the process of installation and configuration specific towards the end-user? From my understanding...

I'm sure there is plenty, but the bucks were on him. He exercising the final authority in and holding responsibility for the governance of his Ministry.

lol because the acquisition program more often than not was centered around the budget, not requirements.
