Planned Acquisition of F-15 Jets by Indonesia May Be Cancelled​


A source familiar with this matter in the US revealed that the deadline for signing the acquisition agreement is mid-December 2022. However, until now, the two countries have not signed a sale and purchase agreement.

The best is prolly G550 CAEW with EL/W-2085 Radar like what italy and singapore had, they had 4 facing fixed AESA antenna covering 360 degree compared to erieye or rotodome option (means that they will always constantly scanned those 360 degree coverage without delay).

Italy bought Two of these system worth for $500 Million, we could get three of that with 800$ Million budget allocation based on assumed pricetag.
And it's looks like our neighbour seems still not wanting to replace this AEW system either.

so let's hope Retia/Czechoslovak group would intervene and try to market this.

If TNI-AU's spanduk were to be believed then the choice has been decided to be Erieye or its Erieye ER variant.

I'm still hoping my personal favorite (APY-9 equipped E-2D) to be considered tho lol.

Why Indonesia didn't buy Aksungur instead of Anka and tb2. Turkish navy is using Aksungur.It has very long endurance and it's a specialized uav for naval operations.(Considering that indonesia is an island country)
Maybe because they are cheaper we could buy them in more significant number and open local production here.
