    Many years ago Ive been informed that goods distribution has been a nightmare in some area. Imagine driving truck full of TV from West Java to Central Java and being stopped at the province border for inspection/tax/etc. I dont know how they are doing right now under Moody but looking back I...

    I was under the same impression as you. Not to mention their flotilla destro/frigate/supply ship passing thru malaka straight right after their meeting with Prabowo and luhut. Its either the meeting ended up badly or they are playing the sinteron game. From reading the news I think its the...

    There are some counter variables that you might have missed. China intrution to our EEZ give US advantage not to give "more" to us unless we give "more" to them. Economic wise we have alot of China investment and degraded US investment. On the other hand we have trade surpluss with US and trade...

    Well at least its not FFBNW. I can understand FFBNW being applied for new platform or the one that needs tons of money for complete systems. But for KCR 60 it would be sad (at least to me) if we still using FFBNW on it.

    Yea, I like this KASAL already when we decided to fully equip our latest batch of KCR-60. And now this? Kudos to them 👍 Published numbers can sometime be deceiving, if only we could get our hands on it before the economic melt down.... :cry::cry:

    Ga kekejar waktunya, baru bisa dimasukin 2021 budget allocation planning so plenty of time. One thing that strike me is the announcement of Bremen usage extention. The timing is just umm coincidental, too perfect to batalin rencana pembelian yg dah disusun by certain party group....but its...

    Geezzzz guys, take some chill pills please.... And whats up with the CPFH lengthy and panas discussion is all about. CPFH its only one of many variables in counting Life Cycle Cost. Not to mention we must value the price of acquiring the fighter as well so its not easy task to do. The more...

    erghhh no, I mean we use their latest AESA radar and EW suites, afaik their radar isnt related to ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulation) so we can worry less about US embargo. Having the same manufacture/source for avionics/radar/EW imo would make it easier to integrate and maximize its...

    But to me those avionics/radar & EW suites really tempting to be put in our future KFX/IFX. At least it is proven design that works compare to the one Sokor has right? :D

    Gripen is a great fighter with it great EW suits and network integration (among them). Again we comparing a fighter with its spec/maintenance cost for us to use, not at what its intended role then the spec/maintenance cost/LCC come after. This is my take, one thing Gripen lacking over F-16 on a...

    Diversify is good but relying on Russia made aircraft isn't wise for now. Their supply chain has been in disaray after the fall of USSR. Some aviation/naval technology has fallen and kept by Ukraine as we all know, not to mention their fabrication. There was a time when even if we have the money...

    I know right :D Tho I see it rather differently, the plan to have SU-35 is for air superiority role while the additional F-16 is for another role. If they still have the SU-35 budget allocation avaiable then this typhoon might go thru (budget wise). But part of the budget was going to use PLN...

    Im talking about jet fighter technology, not transport. Harrier got thru simply because they dont have the technology nor other nations at that time. Like I said I just want us to look from different perspective. It would be naive saying US base company not willing to take the opportunity to...

    I have posted about this issue before. What Korea need the most from us is "market/buyer" to bring the economic scale down to acceptable level thus making the cost of the fighter cheaper. It will cost more per-airframe compare to F-35 and the only thing that KFX has more is range and speed. I...

    Aussie almost bombed Jakarta as well in east timor incidents. As of Singapore there are few things we in disagreemant with them and some old and recent wounds that hasnt been healed fully yet. US might agree to give us lightning but if those two rejects then it might not happen. Those 2 harbour...
