Is it legal to share the screenshots of the articles behind the paywall? I have it actually, but I’m afraid it would be illegal lol

Written there, MoD still interested with F-16 btw. And also talked about Indonesian corruption in business environment a little. Put at the last, Prabowo’s apartment in Paris that was talked by french publication L’Obs.

No mention of Bill Burns after what can be read even without get through the paywall
It's okay not delete this, just put your source link.

Well don't know how to respond to this one, hip hip hurray or booo?

But at least they would got something to flying at for a while until those Rafale and F15 EX come online in which i am supposed those would not reach initial operating capability or limited operational readiness by at least 2028....

Now if you put yourself into mindset of broker or mediator, everything doesn't necessarily has to make sense, the only matters is the fee or whatever comes after to the higher people, but let's aside what interests for higher people, the interests for middle man are the success fee by which some people must be rejoiced knowing the deal.

Okay, let's "celebrate". 🥴
how many planes did you take? dash 5 or dash 9 series?
because the acquisition price of this used mirage is equivalent to 24 F16 C block 25 ID ($725M)
even though qatar used to offer it for free here who refused wkwkkw

Can't help but feel that Mirage 2K is our second option.

The fact that MoD approached Austria first shows that EF Typhoon was our first option for second-hand jets.

Perhaps even EF Typhoon Tranche-1 (which many are available) is too pricey for us.

Why is Indonesia constantly underfunding its military? Especially now with all the extra money from the export of oil, metals and other natural resources?

Lacks of political motivation to do so, as Indonesia is lies in relatively peaceful region. In the past when most of Asia region is in conflict or war, Indonesia spending around two third of the income of the year for defense spending. Even Soeharto government is always maintain at least 1,5 percentage of Indonesia gdp toward military budget
