Although I agree with you i am still leaning towards building new capital city.

Yes we definitely need new alutsista and stuff, and Kalimantan would be easier to invade, currently most of our military power is concentrated in Java and also population in Java is huge (huge potential of militia to support the military).

Short term solution is pergeseran kekuatan, long term would be bigger defense budget = more shopping = more alutsista.

they need to build several class A Air Force base in Kalimantan to start with

Java has Iswahjudi and Abdur Rahman Saleh, along with Halim Perdana Kusumah to protect the capital city of Jakarta and important city like Surabaya and Semarang. Not to mention the existence of Soerjadarma, Atang Sendjaja and Adi Soetjipto base as back up base and Kodiklat.

the only class A air force base in Kalimantan is Supadio in Pontianak, at the end side of west Kalimantan. They need more than Supadio and the supposed back up unit from Hasanudin Makassar as Hasanudin forces is intended to backing up Eastern Indonesia region. If Anang Busra, Dhomber and Sjamsoeddin Noer can be elevated into class A Air Force base along with organic fighter units that's will increasing Indonesian security as a whole. Kalimantan in my opinion is a strategic choke points as an unsikable carrier, along with Natuna and Maluku islands.

By the way to put new capital into Kalimantan in my opinion it will be a strategic move to securing Indonesian heart and vein aka Java. Even if enemies can destroying the new capital (god forbid) by launching long range strike missiles or air force bomber/fighter raids, we can always back off to Java and starting over again.

The Swedish actually used Gripen to combat wildfires by dropping bombs over the wildfire as an attempt to get the oxygen away from the fire.

Agree. The president will be stationed in new capital while the VP will be stationed in Java. Anything happens to the capital/president, the VP will always be ready to lead the resistance.

As long as both are in really good terms with each other and not try to 'njegal' each other, what you suggest may create two camp of power, low possibility but the chance are still there. Both should be stationed in new capital, they would still going back and forth to Java anyway.

I would be worried to place both the president and the VP in the new capital tbh. Makassar strait & Sulawesi sea is way deeper with lot less traffic than Java sea. Submarines with cruise missiles could find its way to aim Sepaku/Penajam undetected.

if you dont mention "the kitchen truck", i think i could misidentified it as some sort of missile launcher truck-based, like Iskander and Bastion-P
But it have very few wheels.

Is it using Hino truck?

It looks like so. Ganilla 1 is suspected of using Hino too

The Army Aviation should put efforts to supporting the MALE project, as they can be used as observer platform, precision Attack platform in tandem with their assets and so on.
