Indonesia may purchase an additional batch of BMP-3F

The Russian side made an offer to Indonesia to supply an additional batch of BMP-3F, transfers Interfax Post by Mikhail Petukhov, Deputy Director of FSMTC of Russia.

Now the foreign customer is considering proposals for the supply of an additional batch of BMP-3F,

said Petukhov at the Defense & Security exhibition in Thailand.

According to him, these machines have long been in service with the Indonesian Marine Corps and have “proved themselves very well”.

Earlier, about the interest of Indonesia in the purchase of an additional batch of infantry fighting vehicles told the representative of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation Maria Vorobieva.

The Russian BMP-3F, supplied by Indonesia, proved to be excellent, and the Marine Corps is really interested in purchasing an additional batch of these machines,

She said, stressing that "the parties are currently agreeing on possible dates for the start of the negotiation process on this topic of cooperation."

The agency recalls that the BMP-3F, together with other military equipment, began to be supplied to Indonesia from 1992.

The main thing here is what the Indonesians think and say, but not what Petukhov and Vorobyeva say.

I did not understand the depth of your thought. If our offer means there is a demand.

The Marine Corps is really interested in acquiring an additional batch of these vehicles.

This is not a finger sucked.

no fact of the transaction? - then this is the "news" from the OBS section ..... Wishlist ....

[rotmistr60]

Russian BMP-3F, delivered by Indonesia, have proven themselves perfectly

Transactions, as you say, have already been, what prevents to continue? And here it’s not “one woman said,” but reality.

money is time
contract terms are two
well, three - cases of force majeure ......

Fat Leonard will gladly buy these BMPs for bribes to the US military. Read the previous article about Indonesia.

[Pivot]

You are wrong, if you don’t actively sell, you won’t buy, most likely you’ve already agreed on something, but in general there are more of the best BMPs in Indonesia)))

What is the Russian side of Indonesia?

[zivXP]

This is such local fun - guess the word called.

[Livonetc]

This is an established process of operation and replenishment of the corresponding parts of Indonesia with appropriate equipment.

BMP for coffee ... translated.

BMP - 3F is a very good product, excellent quality, excellent demand. Great job in Indonesia!

Who is so stubbornly slowing down this car for our marines, is the question ... Or wheeled armored personnel carriers, or wait for a monster floating with gliding, for a "over-the-horizon landing", although the BMP-3F will remain up-to-date on anyone, and the BMMP that is being developed will not replace it in imitation of the ideas of the Yankees.

Who is so stubbornly braking this car for our marines, here's the question ..

It's just that nobody is going to really land on an unprepared shore ... And for all other tasks, our MP equipment is quite enough ..
rs: It would also have come to the command of the Airborne Forces that there will NEVER be MASS parachute landings, and the guys should be given normal weapons and not rattles with cardboard armor ..

It would have come even before the command of the Airborne Forces realized that there will NEVER be MASS paratroopers, and the guys should be given normal weapons and not rattles with cardboard armor ..

Who told you that they will not, they have already been in Iraq. Secondly, in case of an emergency troop transfer (with our open spaces), parachuting can be relevant even to its own territory, its rear. Finally, to have the ability to parachute landing, it is better than not having such an opportunity. "Rattle" type BMD-4M and equipment based on it, it is a worthy weapon for the tasks of the Airborne Forces. What's the point that "nobody is going to REALLY land on an unprepared shore"and on what coast then is it going? For the Baltic, the Caspian Sea, the Black Sea, will we organize a" overshore landing "on the" prepared shore "? I have already said many times that the BMP (BMD) is a universal technique for maneuvering warfare, which is perfect for its tasks. "Rattle", or the most "thick-skinned" armor machine, not a bomb shelter, depends on the competent or illiterate use of technology, what the losses will be, there is no non-killed equipment, everything is burning. BMP-3F is needed by our marines, and those sabotage its purchases, either traitors, or worse, fools.

Oho hoh .. Who was landed in Iraq? A couple of tens of thousands, and all this with technology and parachuting? Well, well .. In the native open spaces will we parachute with technology? c'mon ... all the MTR and intelligence Find the numbers for the cost of landing training and equipment as a percentage of the costs of the airborne forces. But the fact that on foiled BMD the landing will solve the tasks of motorized infantry is an indisputable fact! And the supply of tanks in the Airborne Forces hints that it is slowly reaching the leadership ...
Now about the MP, their task is not to land somewhere on the shore (there are too few of them for the real result), but to work with power support in the fleet and that’s all. They only need armored personnel carriers and transporters to get to the port to get to the pier and put things in order there. .
In principle, I agree with you that for these purposes, the BMP-3f would be better, but .. So far they are managing very successfully and so ..

[The leader of the Redskins]

This will be the right choice.

[bogart047]

and you can still sell tanks to Ukraine, the igilo too ... both. To make everyone happy.

And who is their likely adversary?
