we already operate the legacy one, commonality with its weapon and infrastructure is another thing, easier transition in training (pilot, maintenance, etc) from current block to block 72, cheaper to buy / operate and we can spam F16 as much as we like.
we can upgrade and maintain on our own (as...
the plan from flyer rapim tni (or something like that) is for 5 scorpene, 4 type 214, and 2 or 3 CBG.
i don't know if there any change after 402 incident.
wait sorry, just to be clear we talking about this cable right? or im wrong here.
if so i do think that were a rhib line, as it connect to rhib just like pic below (more tension maybe?).
CMIIW
i don't know, but it not the first time i seen cable on the side of a warship.
edit: i think those for RHIB, because almost all of them connect to that

nah, they probably switch to ojol or parcel delivery service, there's more of that now so i reckon it would be quite easy to blend in 😂 .
technology is advancing (cyber, etc) but HUMINT still preferable method in gathering intel.
this what i hope how we should do procurement program today, semuanya engga terlalu ambisius, start dari kecil2 dulu + bikin industri pendukung.

welp, after nanggala incident there's some of people in Indonesia (include the politician) who already had a view that Korean stuff is sh#t and we should never buy from them anymore even though we are the one who mostly at fault.
so i already expect that some alutsista purchase from korea would...
while it good, in reality it not really practical.
the french after some time dropped face shield in combat due to its impracticality
the british tested the same system (with more protection) and they find that it really hard to aim and needed to rotate the weapon 90 degree and decided they...
what i can see in this operation probably going to mirror poso but with more support from TNI.
OPM were declared terrorist by the government not separatist movement and because of that operation probably going to be handle by POLRI not TNI. so no massive movement like we see on Aceh.
CMIIW
remember OPM were declare Terrorist by the government not separatist movement, the operation probably mirror that of Poso (with a bit more bang) not Aceh 20 years ago.
much of the operation going to be handle by the police just like poso with TNI as support element.

Aceh is successful because there's a natural disaster happening at that time which cause a cease fire, that time Aceh really need central government support to help them in disaster relief and economic recovery so they started peace negotiation.
if not because of tsunami, Aceh probably became...
