So the army will have amphibious forces (lite version) that work independently but can work together with the navy for large scale amphibious ops, does army only use their LST for pergeseran kekuatan only till now? Or they already involved in combat exercise? That one time in natuna I only see the LST doing kurir job delivering Leopard, and I think its unloaded in port, i wanna see them beaching them self in the beach and unload leopard, meski bakalan lebih rempong buat masalah geografisnya.

What will the army do in offensive ops against opfor controlled island, will they wait the navy and marines finish their job first then they will send their LST?

Heavy hitter and spear of attack our Armed Forces ground units comprised of Marine corps and Army Paratroopers (including some of Paskhas units), they supposed to do the "most glorious" jobs within the Armed Forces after surely secured the sky and sea (if possible in the first place), the Vanguard. The recorded Lotus operation, RMS rebellion, Permesta rebellion and Trikora always follow up this pattern, so this would be always the pattern.

Well , as an archipelagic country that was a reasonable logic . By geograpy alone we are demanded to have a very mobile yet high quality ground pounder to open up the path forward for the rest of supposedly " armoured normies " doing the clean up .

This tank boat is designed to be able to transport personnel to max 600 nm (1100 km) in 9 knots (17 kmh). So it's not only intended to cross the river or strait. The army can actually use this to transport 60 Raiders from Kepri to Natuna if needed (that's probably about 600 km?).



PT Lundin should offer several variants of this tank boat (if not already) to cater various requirements for export.

They are not for open seas operation though, that's why the units who would use them mostly operated on shallow water bodies or even Inland water like the name indicated, Rawa, Sungai, Pantai dan Laut. If you want something to be operated at open seas why bother to invest on such Boats, better to improve your Corvettes, OPV and Frigates fleets in the first place.

There is two large Archipelago countries who may come into a better fit of example for our deep learning, Britain and Japan. Their mobile expeditionary forces is top notch.

Yup.

But they also can be invaded easily, remember that one time pain managed to sneak into konoha and destroy it? Though their aegis system able to detect their aerial intrusion they still failed to intercept him, I wonder why didn't they launch their SM-2 missile, they also have patriot.

Next time they would use OV 22 to do the job, grebek tambang pasir greget
You'd bet on neko's ass that they would do that as soon as they feel they could get away with it ( justified as training reason , aclimatization reason , etc )

Talking about OV 22, it will be harder to do low flying like this to avoid radar detection (its possible for low flying flight but not like this one) but they have nice speed and range so OV22 have its own way of doing stuff, chinook however can fly low, fly above hills, cliff, river, valey, mountains etc.
During Iraq-Iran war Iran use chinook to send their troops behind enemy line and conducting surprise attack ( Operation Fath-ol-Mobeen), the chinook isn't detected by radar somehow must be flying low.

You Miss a whole point, this thing is intended to be used by Army, not Marines. Then the Army intended to build Rawa Sungai Laut dan Pantai specialized units, before they are already acquired some KC Boats (the ones looking like CB90), then Arisgator but all of them is not suffice to handle their requirement for fast mobilization is such specific area along with heavy hitting firepower organic within the system. This unit supposed to be the Army equivalent of Mechanized Infantry but for such geography area (sea, swamp, beaches and such) they are intended to build such units in Maluku and Riau Islands provinces first.

I proposed we called it 'Boatanized Infantry' :D

Should the tank boat head to the beach first? Or wait the others so our amphibious forces can land at the same time?

Depends on the protection level that it has. Does anyone know about it?

If it was intended to be used for 1st wave, IMO, it should have at least STANAG IV protection
