Jakarta (ANTARA) - Indonesian Navy Chief of Staff Admiral Muhammad Ali discussed the procurement of several main weapons systems (alutsista) tools for the Indonesian Navy, including frigates and aircraft, with Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto.

The discussion took place on the sidelines of a limited meeting with President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) at the Presidential Palace, Jakarta, on Monday (August 5).

"We discussed about the defense equipment for the Indonesian Navy, (including) frigates, aircraft, and others," he stated when met on Tuesday.

Ali said Prabowo responded positively to the purchase proposal.


"Minister Prabowo wants to develop the Indonesian Navy. We must have a strong naval defense because Indonesia is an archipelago," he emphasized.

This year, the Indonesian Defense Ministry announced the purchase of several defense equipment for the Indonesian Navy, including the Scorpene Evolved submarine made by Naval Group France, two OPV ships to be developed into frigates manufactured by Fincantieri Italy, and a submarine evacuation system (SRVS) made by Submarine Manufacturing & Products (SMP) England.

The ministry has also signaled its intent to purchase unmanned aircraft (drones) from Turkey, namely Bayraktar, made by Baykar and Anka, manufactured by Turkish Aerospace Industries. The Anka drone is expected to strengthen three Indonesian Defense Forces (TNI) services, including the Indonesian Navy.
