Gee I wonder if we will be allowed to buy it.
it would even be more effective if they were supplemented with good FCR.
BAE and other defense company still developed many kind of new 57mm rounds, the DARPA MAD-FIRES 57mm munition was actually planned to deal agaisnt chinese anti ship missile saturation attack.
If they have paid extras and got the fuse progmmer hardwares, then these munitions can be used.

The first two (Batch I) could be considered experimental class vessels while the next batch are improvement variant, so I think they deserve some worthy equipment.If i were making contracts for this KCRs i would likely prefer cheaper products from other parties or domestic sources for E/O and radars. (Even it may need an R&D or development) .
And use Terma and Bofors equipment on premium line of FPBs.
In the end those systems are an over kill and premium line for a patrol boat with these features. Bofors 57mm could have been better on OPV or PKRs. This one could have received SIMBAD-RC + a cheaper cannon (bofors 40) + a cheaper E/O.The first two (Batch I) could be considered experimental class vessels while the next batch are improvement variant, so I think they deserve some worthy equipment.

there is also a wharf that separates the newly launched KRI Kapak and the other former two batch of KCR, so definitely a camera perspective in play, also the keel does not yet submerged below the waterline too.Kementerian Pertahanan Republik Indonesia

same old same old, 60 meter, maybe it looks bigger because illusion effect, the ship are not on the water level, thus its in the very front, so it look like bigger compared with the other two at the back
Maybe they should get rid of that rusty ship in the background.
we're even not bother to move or scrap KRI Pati unus wreck, yet an multinational exercise (ARNEX) also commence at the same naval base where that wreck are sitting......Maybe they should get rid of that rusty ship in the background.

Its not painted black around the exhaust like the other.
i just hope that KRI Bima samudra (boeing jetfoil) move to somewhere else.Its not painted black around the exhaust like the other.
Is it just me or PAL facility looks messy and disorganized(not to the point that it'll affect their production, its just that not pleasant to the eye).
