My guess they would also Pursue another hot transfer of Mirage 2000 from Emirates as the fund more or less likely had been provided, with close relationship between MoD and Presiden along with their Emirates counterpart it would smoothing most of the hurdle, i am expecting the deal soon would be happened at least before the year end or maybe already happened as i am writing right now. I am not expecting much in number but between 12 to 24 is also very likely.

Two years effective contract the deal would be concluded, now the contract have been effective. There is also fund to upgrade and overhaulled the current Aircraft fleets, including Su27/30, Hawk 109/209 and F-16 C/D. F15 is still in the process, Rafale would came in 2026, so they need hot transfer to alleviated the lack of airframe.
Now its official, Mirage 2000 will come to Indonesia.
@Parry Brima your fav EF becoming more and more unlikely to come here.

What would happen if we bought F-15EX or even F-35.

They would Made some news about Indonesian poverty and misappropriation of funds which is better to invest into education and other social purpose. Oh also about climate change issue and the likes.

They'll be base in Supadio. To the Natuna Sea they go
So now we know Skadron 1 will host M2K, the question is:

  1. Will the remaining Hawk merged with Skadron 12
  2. Will the Hawk moved to Skadron 14
  3. Or follow RSN air base model, 2 fighter squadron (TS and TT) in one air base

Will the Hawk moved to Skadron 14
14th Squadron almost always filled with air superiority fighter (even Su35 originally would for them),

So F15IDN without CFT, I guess... 🤷

There would be one fighter squadron in Papua, right now they are home base for CN235 Aircraft and the Air Force is steadily reinforced them with more personel and assets including air defense units.

In Kalimantan there would be another fighter squadron and would be placed near future capital city, most likely they would put the most advanced Air Superiority Fighter there.

In Nusa Tenggara Timur, there would be fighter squadron this planning has been on the table for long long time.

2nd squadron of Eagle 2 ?

I would not be surprised if they would put a bigger squadron of 24 units there. Or, if they can get 36 units, they would created two squadron but within a single Air Command Group in the same Air Force base

A more realistic one imo

Koopsud I

Wing 6 (Pekanbaru)

Skadron 16 (F-16)​
Skadron 12 (F-15ID)​
Wing 7 (Supadio)

Skadron 1 (Mirage 2000)​
Skadron tbd (Rafale)​
Another wing created facing Indian ocean with, possibly based in Iskandar Muda AB, Aceh

1x Squadron tbd (Rafale)​
1x Squadron tbd (KF-21)​

Koopsud II

Wing 3 (Madiun)
Skadron 3 (F-16)​
Skadron 14 (F-15ID)​
Skadron 15 (T-50)​

Wing 5 (Makassar)

Skadron 11 ( Su-27/30)​
Skadron tbd (Rafale)​
IKN air wing with

1x Squdron tbd (F-15ID)​
1x Squadron tbd (KF-21)​
Koopsud III
Hawk 100/200 withdrawn from combat duty to form fighter trainer wing or form new wing based in Papua with KF-21

If we only buy 24 F-15ID, that mean no F-15ID based in Pekanbaru, replaced with something else as capital is a more important (?) area.

Looking at how big the airspace is, Flankers?
