One more gem of a prediction from our resident ex-fart; now I understand why this fellow is so jelly

"Assembled only, no manufacturing"- source: Indos the Indonesian Octopus
Yeah Indonesia is part of C295 supply chain, does it mean Indonesia manufactures C-295?
I hope you know there are probably hundreds of companies all over the world involved in supply chains for a single C-295?
C295 is a stretched derivative of the C235 airplane.
The C235 airplane was originally designed and developed around 1980 in a joint venture company Casa-Nurtanio, Casa being Spanish aerospace company and Nurtanio being the Indonesian JV partner. CAD CAM tooling was partially developed in Indonesia which was unprecedented in Asia. PT Nurtanio is called PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI) nowadays and Casa got absorbed into Airbus.
C295 is an airbus product and many body panels and assemblies are manufactured and supplied to Airbus from Indonesia, as tehre are common assemblies that fit either C235 or C295.
All Tata will be doing is bringing in C295 parts to India (some possibly from Indonesia) to assemble into finished airplanes. Indian AF needs these.
Bangladesh Army Air wing has standardized the C295 as military transport in lieu of the AN-32s which are aging badly. India which has a fleet of hundred plus AN-32's will replace them with C295's for the same reason.
IAF plans to replace AN-32 with Airbus C295 medium transport aircraft and price negotiations for buying 56 of them have been wrapped up.

Indonesia has the largest collection of oversized CNC milling machines made by Cincinnati Milacron (US) in Asia supplied in the 1980's for that purpose. It has no parallel in India, especially with what HAL has.
Tata will need twenty years to match what Indonesia already has as far as aircraft manufacturing infra. These bhakt idiots are clueless. Sitting in andhi gulli and dreaming of greatness by posting with 500 rupee cellphones.
Please don't embarrass yourself by coming here and displaying your ignorance, do your research first. There are people who know way more than you and will call out your ignorance.
Indonesia is a much more advanced country in the aerospace field compared to India. They already designed their own prop-liners twenty years ago and was on the cusp of jetliner development (Jet derivative of N250 pictured below). Suharto's fall from power delayed things, as did the Asian financial crisis of 1998. I have been following Indonesian aerospace for a long, long time. N250 which was a larger derivative of C235 was developed independently in Indonesia.
Indonesians design and manufacture their own airplanes, while India can't design anything without Western help and ToT. Even today - Indonesia is designing their stealth fighter in a JV with South Korea.
Just because Indonesians are not mouthy and braggart like Bhakt Sanghis in India - does not mean their level of development is any less....
Stop comparing every country with India, they are not in India's league.
Too harsh respect for Indonesians
Stop the hate man no one is useless
Please ask your Nokar level bhakts to stop the useless puffery.
Jaysee karni waisi bharni.....
Here is another practical little twin turboprop N219 Indonesians are developing by themselves, which is very practical transport for Indonesia with its thousands of Islands.
Now if this was even partially made in India, remote corners of the would know about it by now, with the level of Indian mouthy puffery.
India has been trying to develop something like this for the last 30 years (Saras) and nothing close in sight, Saras was originally a pusher turboprop Argentinian design which was sold to HAL, which most people don't know about. I don't know why HAL tries to develop these pie in the sky things instead of design small practical aircraft by themselves.
