    Very nice evening cockpit. And the cabin area is quite spacious isn't it? An 8-hour mission in that cabin seems comfortable enough.

    Seriously, is there a more sophisticated way of rolling aviation fuel drums efficiently and safely? I think that's just unsafe and looks unprofessional. :fie: Why not use one of these?

    I doubt we will acquire BMSA. CN235MSA will put up a fight. It's turbofan vs turboprop but PTDI will say that turbofan engine is an overkill for fishery missions. Other sensor suites and radars can be adopted to CN235MSA to compete with BMSA's equipments. But we'll see. This could be an...

    This boat is definitely a very powerful addition not only for the AL's LPD but maybe for the the future Kapal Markas KKP. 2 or 3 of these fast powerful boats carrying armed personnel can easily catch several illegal fishing vessels all at the same time. Bring those thieves to KKP's mother ship...

    Are they the engineering corps? It's really nice to see our non-frontline or non-combatant troops / corps active internationally other than UN missions. Last time KRI dr. Suharso made it's first international mission to Timor Leste. Sadly there are not many photos / infos about non-frontline...

    When the station is operational, as part of security, the Halim Station will need lots of CCTVs, " innocently" positioned towards Halim AFB. As we all know CCTVs are easily linked via internet or satellite. PRESTO! 24hrs foreign surveillance cameras watching our AFB. That's what I'm sniffing.

    I never say that we should use Tarantul instead of KCR-60. I only say that we should make KCR-60 missile capabilty similar to Tarantul, and that discussion have been concluded ( closed ) by me. But, if we want to talk about KCR-60 endurance at sea, then it's worse than Tarantul. Tarantul is 10...

    Ah OK. So the idea is we want to build bigger combat ship and we don't want a 60m corvette. It's true, BUT, if the mission is only patrol, especially during peace time, does Tarantul need that configuration (carrying full armament ) ? Probably not. So with less arms carried it can be at sea...

    Thanks guys. The reason I ask this is because I'm comparing KCR-60 with Russia's Tarantul-Class. Both vessels are of similar size. Similar length, beam, and displacement. But Tarantul is a corvette while KCR-60 is only classified as Fast (missile) Boat. With similar size, Tarantul can carry...

    We certainly need 110++ meter OPV to guard our EEZ, because EEZ are almost always located on high seas and require several weeks of stationing in the middle of the sea. And definitely good for Natuna Seas.

    Hi guys. New member here but I'm not new to this thread. Been following this thread for more than 3 years now but never have time to be active here until now. As you can see my avatar is a dog's nose that's because I'm nosy. Always sniffing for knowledge. Anyway I have two questions for you...
