"Time to stop chasing Su fighters": Indonesian Defense Minister called for "advanced technology"

84

Indonesia intends to invest heavily in the modernization of its troops in the coming years. For this item of expenditure, the Ministry of Development Planning has been allocated $ 20,7 billion, which is to be spent in 2020-2024.

The head of the department, Suharso Monoarfa, on the pages of the Detik publication, indicated on what these funds will be mainly spent. According to him, there are 514 counties and cities in Indonesia. The 300 battalions at the disposal of the armed forces are insufficient to cover them.



When deploying new units, Suharso urged the Ministry of Defense to equip them with "military equipment with advanced technology", despite the fact that the rearmament process may take many years. As an example of inadequate procurement practice, he cited the acquisition of the Su family fighters, as they are constantly evolving.

Enough to repeat the mistake associated with the purchase of the Su-27. Before deliveries ended, the next generation of the Su-30 had already appeared. Then we wanted to buy the Su-30, but the Su-35 was born. We started talking about buying the Su-35, the Su-57 appeared, and so on. So it's time to stop chasing Su fighters, we can't afford it, we shouldn't do that.

- said the Indonesian minister, calling for the transition to ready-made "advanced platforms and technologies."

      Along the way, he offered his cookies to the USA and Indonesians. And who else did not tell this minister that, having Sushki, you have a clear sky? Obviously a pro-Western minister. The fact that the West does not know how to honestly compete is not news.

          There is also a resentment that the level of analytics in Indonesia is not higher than that of a commercial, and has not grown during the purchase of our equipment. request They still do not understand what to do, what strategy should be in the purchase of weapons.

            Well, in fact.
            if you look at the F-18, for example, then all of its upgrades fully fit into our line of "Su-27 with variations, Su-30 with variations, Su-33, Su-35".

        The F35 just goes not stripped down. It was originally developed for the external market. It is much more profitable for any manufacturer to create a product that will be in demand both inside and outside. Remember the sad story of Sszh-100.

      Indonesia signs agreement of intent to acquire 36 French Dassault Rafale fighters
      On June 7, 2021, during the visit of the Minister of the Armed Forces of France Florence Parley to Indonesia, the military departments of the two countries secretly signed an agreement of intent (Letter of Intent - LoI) regarding the purchase of 36 new French Dassault Rafale fighters by Indonesia.

      But February 2021
      According to documents published at a meeting of the leadership of the Indonesian Air Force, the state will acquire 36 Rafale fighters and eight F-15EX fighters.

      Expected that of 44 purchased fighters six will be delivered to Indonesia by 2022.

      The Indonesian Air Force said that the country will also buy a C-130J transport aircraft and medium-altitude unmanned combat aircraft.

      Arms Purchase Plan in Indonesia has undergone several changes, both taking into account global conditions and the country's capabilities.

      Italian shipbuilding association Fincantieri 10 2021 June of the year signed a contract with the Ministry of Defense of Indonesia for the construction of six FREMM frigates for the Indonesian naval forces. The contract also includes the supply of Indonesia with the repair and modernization of two Maestrale-class frigates being withdrawn from the Italian Navy.

      The cost and other parameters of the contract were not disclosed, but it is probably the largest export military shipbuilding contract in Fincantieri history. According to Italian sources, the first three FREMM-class frigates will be built for Indonesia at Fincantieri shipyards in Italy, and three others will be built with Italian assistance at the Indonesian state shipbuilding association RT PAL in Surabaya.... The two Maestrale class frigates will also be repaired and upgraded in Italy.

          There is no need to compare the F-22 with the F-35. Different cars, different tasks. In fact, at the end of the 80s, they were conceived as a bunch - a heavy twin-engine fighter to conquer superiority (replacing the F-15) and a massive single-engine multipurpose (replacing the F-16 / F-18 / A-10). And if with the F-22 it turned out more or less decently (except for the price tag), then with the F-35 another season of the "Pentagon Wars" began.
          As for the combat use - none of the new ones fought "seriously". And what will happen when ... it will be like the Turkish Leos in Syria and the Saudi Abrams in Yemen ... By the way, the Syrian birds still managed to damage one Israeli F-35 smile

    Indonesia intends to invest in the coming years .... $ 20,7 billion to be spent in 2020-2024.

    Not frail money! belay There will be a hard butting!
    Enough to repeat the mistake associated with the purchase of the Su-27. Before deliveries ended, the next generation of the Su-30 had already appeared. Then we wanted to buy the Su-30, but the Su-35 was born. We started talking about buying the Su-35, the Su-57 appeared, and so on.

    In principle, the minister is right, although it is not clear why the Su-57 is on the list? Although there are doubts about how technologically advanced the Su-57 is in comparison with potential competitors, it is still undoubtedly higher in a number of characteristics than the F-16, which the United States is trying to shove into the Indonesians.
    There is one more factor. I suspect that Indonesia will choose models that China does not have.

        I readily believe ... In fact, the F-16 is probably not the best choice for a country like Indonesia. I wonder how the battle between the Su-30MKI and its Chinese counterparts ended up ?! China and J-20 went into production. Indonesia, India are looking for opposition. Here is a colleague donavi49 writes:
        On June 7, 2021, during the visit of the Minister of the Armed Forces of France Florence Parley to Indonesia, the military departments of the two countries secretly signed an agreement of intent (Letter of Intent - LoI) regarding the purchase of 36 new French Dassault Rafale fighters by Indonesia.
        February 2021 - According to documents released at a meeting of the leadership of the Indonesian Air Force, the state will acquire 36 Rafale fighters and eight F-15EX fighters.

                Well, if you don't try to know the history of technology, then of course you can reason the way you do.

                Only the PrattWitney F100-PW-229 EEP engine, which is on the Viper (70/72) and on the new F-15EX, appeared in series only in 2009.
                15 years later than the F-16C started flying on the F110-GE-100 engine.

                It has been redesigned practically from scratch.
                It uses all 5th generation aircraft engine technologies - F119 and F135.

                And the flight resource is twice as long - 10000 hours.
                Yes, and noticeably smaller in size.

    In Russia, there are also Su-27 and Su-30 in the troops and they are actively used.
