KN Tanjung Datu and our 80metre OPV already installed with aselsan smash 30mm
i was hoping our tanjung datu would get atleast a dual 40mm cannon like dardo ..... well it's better than nothing at all.
it's derivative of BVP-M2, and those variant lose it's amphibious capability.
there's this thing from sweden, it can fire while swimming, use 90mm cannon, but the company that manufactured it already absorbed by BAE systems, don't know if they still offer the product though.
If they try to challenge the MHI offer with corvette grants by means paving the way to offer KDDX to indonesia (not changbogo), either KDDX From HHI or DSME, then im all in with their offer.
though our MOD could have a difference in opinion, Mogami already exist, KDDX are still nowhere to be...
might aswell replace the whole thing, not much option for marine amphibious fire support vehicle option these days , other than russian and chinese option like ZBD series.
thai does have ukraine made BTR-3E with 90mm LP, i don't know if it will affect their amphibious capabilities, not really...

we actually still have another way to preven't such seduction, either "we" adhere's to their requirements of continuing nagapasa batch project, or we can use the "Coal Supply" card, and convince them to grant that 3 corvette without any requirements.
what a great offer, i hope they will not give any weird requirements for this grant, such as making a way for another batch of changbogo to win the current submarines tender ..... they won't do such thing will they?
there ain't no such thing as a free lunch
less armed than Antasena then ......
wonder if they will commence the 3rd prototype with this design.
or let's hope they've come out with much more better design with much more better space management for weapon placement, Klewang with more teeth than KCR-60 might've been welcomed by our...
that's actually a good presentation for our Makassar class derivative design, those ambulance vessels some other times can be reconfigured as USV, and our Makassar can also have derivative role as USV mothership like the singaporean MRCV.
if RCS was concern for inflitration mission, then a midget sub is much more suitable for the mission, no RCS at all.
this thing is pretty much a prototype and proof of concept ship, it might probably ended up like those ALRI Hydrofoil ferry, kri bima samudera.
im waiting for their 3rd...
perhaps lundin should learn from republic of china Lung Teh shipyard , ta chiang class , those 60metre corvette / fast attack craft not only "cool and modern" looking ship but also armed to teeth.
1x76mm super rapid
1x Phalanx 20mm CIWS
8x Launcher for Hsiung Feng III anti ship missile (up to...
Infoglobal UAV, Fighter jet mockups (double and single engine ?) that's looks like the preliminary C203 prototype of KF-X.
"In addition to avionics, Infoglobal also displays several technology roadmaps, namely Mock Up Combat Aircraft and UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) which will be developed...
