Indonesia's involvement in South Korea's KF-21 Boramae fighter programme looks set to deepen, with fresh indications that Jakarta may procure 16 Block 2 variants of the aircraft as part of a package to revive a long-stalled contract.
This development emerged from a closed-door meeting at the Indonesian Ministry of Defence (MoD) in Jakarta on 7 January, which was held following a proposal broached by Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto to his South Korean counterpart Lee Jae-myung during a private meeting at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in October 2025.
According to documents provided to Janes, the 7 January meeting was led by the head of Programme and Evaluation at the MoD's Defence Logistics Agency, Air Commodore Jon Ginting.
Also in attendance at the meeting were representatives from Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) and Indonesia's state-owned aerospace company PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI).
