Yup, of course there was the time where Indonesia and Korea start KFX/IFX partnership so there maybe proposal like that for another project and PTDI is interested since it can lower the expense and widen the market.Indonesia Is producing Light Attack Helicopter With South Korean military co-operation
JAKARTA, (Xinhua) -- Indonesia's plane company PT Dirgantara Indonesia will develop a light attack helicopter and military cooperation wi...

I linked these just to show it exists, i know this through a personal communication. However pretty sure it has gone into thin air.
And then link it up to an UAV
Not sure about that. Link up between UV is a kind of new concept for Indonesia (Maybe someone here can correct me if I was wrong). I believed they will mature the prototype first and think about that later since this UGV have more room for upgrade.And then link it up to an UAV
Just telling for the future, it better has an uplink capability foreseen and spared from today.
Nicely produced video.

aselsan SARP rcws ?
I don't think so.. Just google-image Aselsan SARP and then compare the sensor at the front with this one (around 3:56), seems that they are using different sensors and different positions. Also looks like Aselsan is using specially built / heavily modified guns, while these guys only put an "everyday MG" (Minimi ..?) with very little modification (well, they have to modified AT LEAST the trigger-ing process). At 4:21 we can still see the rear sight and carrying handle
what about the electro optical sensor/camera ? im still curious where they sourced that from though .I don't think so..

I'm NOT saying that they're doing a bad job, the little kinks can be iron out as time goes by, especially if they receive buying commitments from TNI (read: funds). To be fair, with tech nowadays it is quite easy to built an RCWS. Even the components available in civilian market is already good enough for this purpose.. I mean, they don't have to detect an ant movement on 2 kilometers radius do they?
With micro computers like Raspberry Pi, various sensors and a little coding skill, an RCWS is very feasible. There are lots of tutorial in internet for a start, such as:
- https://maker.pro/raspberry-pi/tutorial/how-to-interface-a-pir-motion-sensor-with-raspberry-pi-gpio
- https://tutorials-raspberrypi.com/raspberry-pi-ultrasonic-sensor-hc-sr04/
and I even found one paper from Indos uni student that is talking about this:
- http://library.unmer.ac.id/index.php?p=show_detail&id=34989
There is no shame even it is not 100% "karya anak bangsa" and there is very little thing to worry about getting an embargo as these things are quite cheap and available everywhere.
Also easily available everywhere, relatively inexpensive and "good enough" quality for RCWS ..?

One moment it changed from Ma deuce to FN Mag. Good to know it can use different firearms.
