C-130J procurement went through DCS not FMS, that's why no articles about our C-130 published on dsca.mil
Seems alike we're getting additional Hellfire

Wait? F35B?
Why not A, the air force model?
Better range, peformance, more AAM inside weapon bay (sidekick rack).
Well yeah...TNI AU rarely go full berserk filling all the pylon with AAM like Amraam or Sidewinder, and if they want to deliver more bombs F16 is much better choices. F35B is natural choices for us actually
Alman tweeted recently that the Indonesian Government had awarded a contract to an aircraft manufacturer. So maybe it is a done deal.
Anyway the amount in the DSCA Notification will differ to the actual contract. For example the amount in the DSCA Notification of the Indonesian AH-64E was USD 1.42 Billion but the actual contract was at USD 500 Million.
DCS means transaction goes to G to B, it's our Government directly with LM. So no need Conggres approval, the issue related with financing problemWell.. how for has it progresses now...? Any pending issues that's may be delaying it...? Surely USG/Congress approval should not be one of those, if any...
The value of USD 1.72B, is that the actual cost of our Apache package...?
All i can say we're getting more Hellfire, there Will be further batchIs there any plan on getting the AGM-114L variant?
I doubt it, it was either this or the Chinook.Emang gaje, trus covid19 dipake buat ngeles narik karyawan DI balik ke Indonesia.
May I know which branch will get this osprey? Or it will be used for all branch?
Ngarep buat pasmar.
Are we also planning to have chinook?
It's higher because it includes the life sustainment costs (life maintenance, spare parts, etc.) similar to the Apache deal which was $1.68B. This was done because the old defense minister never wanted to negotiate life sustainment packages and ends up with increasing maintenance costs each time they need to service something. Having something like this written on contract prevents that.You know i thought it wasn't serious and calculating the operational cost i thought we were getting CH-47F instead especially with that nice Boeing offsets offer to PT.DI, now we're getting FMS for 8 MV-22 instead
USA and Indonesia formalise AH-64E Apache dealCan you show us a link saying that our Apache purchase is just 500 million USD ?
Yep, again it's that high because we went with the life sustainment package. Meaning Boeing would support the fleet throughout its entire length of service.The value of USD 1.72B, is that the actual cost of our Apache package...?
We end up getting more US items. I Just saw " pagu anggaran " on F-16V & 2nd batch of C-130J ( this time FMS payment system instead of DCS) for Air Force and follow up order on AH-64E also unexpectedly " pagu anggaran " on Blackhawk for Army Aviation. The articles on them published in DSCA is imminentI doubt it, it was either this or the Chinook.

Personally, I'm glad Prabowo decided to negotiate Life Sustainment into the contract. This should be the standard from now on. You always see Slavaboos in other forums parroting off saying how operating Mi-26's is the more 'economical' option, but they'd quickly shut their mouths when you ask them about life sustainment because Russia never wants to include them up front. It's how they make their money, trap you in a deep maintenance sink hole.We end up getting more US items.
