WANI-23 Born from Concern and Belief

He said that the presence of WANI-23 is not just a technology project, but a spirit of resistance against dependence on imports.

"We started with simple tools, no one told us to, but we knew Indonesia needed it, and we dared to make it ourselves," he said. The biggest challenge was building from scratch, outside the scheme of a large consortium.

Even when the world only knew the dominance of the United States and China in the production of Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) category drones, Adi chose the difficult path, creating a local alternative with a flight capability of up to 25 hours, can carry ammunition, and is fully controlled via a homemade flight control.

"The brain, the control system, we developed everything, yes, this drone was truly born from the hands of our own people," he said. He emphasized that Indonesia actually already has great potential. For that, he and his team built an aviation engine production ecosystem in Yogyakarta.

Currently, 50 percent of the WANI-23 engine components are available in the local market, while the rest are being adjusted.

"Next year, the machine will be ready, after that, there is no reason for us to continue waiting for foreign technology," said the INACOM chairman.
