They still would get Mogami class as medium/multi purpose working horse Frigate though, Escort for the heavier class of FREMM and Itver Huitveld class along with lighter Frigates and Corvettes we already had.
My friend said it more than four Billion US Dollar as it is actually almost a complete package included weaponry and ILS for years, for the exact number of total cost i can't said as it is quite sensitive issue politically in my country right now.
Still need more high end hull to build proper three fleets command unit (Indonesian Navy had three Fleets, in which the third fleet is only skeleton unit without any meaningful assets). That's why they need at least 18 larger surface combatant warships to properly build up 3 fleets according to...
🥳🥳🤩😎🥳🤟
We got eight Frigates at once hope they are willing to get more
Two Itver Huitveld class
Six Fremm Italiano class
Two Maestrale class
What is next?
Eight Mogami class?
They would, but for a while they hard pressed to form Kostrad Heavy Brigade Combat Team, Battalion Mandala Yudha had been formed for a while meanwhile this plan had been stalled for long time.
Nassams for now, LORAD still on the road of "talking talking" for now especially after Army had interest to get and operated the LORAD system and they had several valid reason for that.
Meanwhile who am i? A former Junior high schooler with penchant to listen some Abang siomay who set up his stall in front of my office?
There is indeed talk about the expand of air defense units within Air Force, after Teluk Naga unit, the most urgent one is to equipped Iswahyudi Air Force...
The MoD would trying to get US fighter and an advance ones to boot, if they can't get F35 (nego is still going on) they would rather taking F 15 EX instead of F 16 V. This mean everything for us, technically and politically....
Not gonna happened, the best thing they can audit is the supposed production facilities and some log book and some notes not the whole internal of the said Submarine. It is breach of security OPSEC, not even the Navy and the one in MoD gonna let foreigner doing a whole audit on their most...
MoD still pursue US Made fighter for some "obvious" reason, their choice is F15 EX if they can't get F 35 soon on the other hand. Lockheed knows their chance on F16 V is kinda slim as the MoD deemed them not "exclusive" enough for political and technical security reason.
