I hope gov will use clean renewable energy like solar,hydro power and wind. Dont like nuclear is too dangerous and we stand in ring of fire earthquake will be a problem
Thorium reactor, my dude.

Supposedly, it can be activated/deactivated on demand. So less chance of risk in case of catasthrophic events.

There is propose for no barter scheme anymore
 
. .
Btw, there is more and more talk to create helicopter production division in PT DI or even to made new branch company so they can focusing only to produce helicopter units and conducting MRO and spare parts production for helicopters. This will be talked more after the completion of new assembly plan for N219 and so on.

Nope, Nuclear Power Plant better if placed on Borneo Island, because far from the epicenter. And plus Central and West Kalimantan has much Thorium and Uranium reserves

Jadi inget mi 35 ketiup angin bbrp bulan yg lalu
No, the biggest enemy in Kalimantan's jungle is actually illegal clearing land for oil palm rather than nuclear power plants [emoji23][emoji23]

Embedding Elbit Systems’ TF/TA solution enables fighter jets to fly and maneuver safely at low-altitudes, in zero visibility and harsh weather conditions (Instrument Meteorological Conditions), thereby enhancing their capability to operate undetected in hostile territory. Interfacing with the autopilot system, the TF/TA system to be supplied fuses data from a range of onboard sensors and a digital terrain elevation data base, together with flight performance characteristics, enabling the aircraft to maintain optimal altitude throughout the mission.

Yoram Shmuely, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Elbit Systems Aerospace Division, said: “We are proud to be in a position to increase the capabilities of Air Forces through joint development with Hanwha Systems Co. Ltd.“.

if the KF-X / IF-X managed to push on , we should be thankful that Elbit is the one who handled the avionics , our KF-X could even probably be almost on par with the F-35 , Elbit is also the one who handled the customization project for the israeli F-35 (The Israeli are dissapointed with the F-35 mission system and avionics so they manage to implement their own made into the f-35 and the result speak for themselves , their own customized F-35 could wreak havoc in the middle east arena) , if trump also manage to realize its two state solution (or maybe the UN), we could probably start to do some diplomatic relations with israeli after the long swear oath to not recognize israel until the palestinian got its own independence .

Turkish-Indonesian-made battle tank attracts more buyers

The mass production of KAPLAN MT Modern Medium Weight Tank, the product of a joint project carried out in Turkey by a leading Ankara-based defense company and an Indonesian defense company, has begun while the producing parties have been conducting new meetings for the export of the vehicle.

The tank-class vehicle was initially developed to meet the Indonesian armed forces' demands for a modern, medium-weight tank and was produced by leading Indonesian armored vehicle manufacturer PT Pindad and Turkey's FNSS Defense Industries Company.

Nail Kurt, general manager and CEO of FNSS, told Anadolu Agency (AA) that FNNS finalized a contract in the last month of 2019 for the mass production of 18 KAPLAN MT tanks, adding that a prototype was set to be delivered at the end of this year, while the rest of the vehicles are planned to be delivered in 2021.

"We expect additional orders within this year and in 2021 within the scope of budgeted works," he added.

Kurt stated that the vehicle is lighter than the main battle tank but the impact power is almost equivalent to that, which enables it to operate with infantrymen easily, adding that this feature of the tank attracts global customers due to its high profitability in an asymmetrical war environment.

Joint Development KAPLAN MT design architecture consists of advanced ballistic and mine protection with a broad range of firepower, ranging from support of infantry to anti-armor.

This vehicle was not only developed for Indonesia but to meet the needs of both Turkey and allied countries, he said.

Exports to other countries on the table

Saying that the project includes the transfer of technology, Kurt noted that FNSS provided a license to the Indonesian company under the scope of the project, enabling the South Asian country to carry out contracts for the export of the vehicle.

Kurt noted that the producing parties are currently in contact with two other countries for the purchase of the tank.

The KAPLAN MT is powered by a power pack located at the rear of the vehicle, which delivers a power-to-weight ratio of about 20 HP/ton. The engine transfers this power to the driving system, which has a six-wheel, anti-shock suspension system with double-pinned tracks mounted on torsion bars.

The tank-class vehicle brings together state-of-the-art modern technology platforms with superior firepower, supported by battlefield management systems and laser warning systems, providing tactical support to the commander.

Firepower is provided by a CMI Cockerill 3105 turret, integrated with a high-pressure 105-millimeter Cockerill gun and an advanced autoloader. Thanks to this turret, the KAPLAN MT has high firepower despite its relatively low weight.

The vehicle, which has an ultimate mine and ballistic protection for its class, rapidly responds to threats in the field and offers adequate firepower over a short period of time which, in turn, ensures superior survivability and mobility on the battlefield.
