Puncak dari krisis Semenanjung Korea akan berdampak langsung pada Indonesia. Salah satu faktor yang paling dikhawatirkan adalah imbas dari ancaman senjata pemusnah massal alias nuklir yang dimiliki oleh Korea Utara.

Dekan Fakultas Manajemen Pertahanan, Universitas Pertahanan, Laksamana Muda TNI, Amarulla Octavian mengatakan, TNI telah mempersiapkan berbagai skenario terburuk terjadinya hal tersebut. Salah satunya adalah menghadang rudal itu dengan pesawat tempur.

“Sekarang mau tidak mau, karena ada krisis di Semenanjung Korea kita harus bisa menghadapi serangan rudal atau nuklir. Itu kan sangat berbeda dengan serangan pesawat,” kata dia di Kampus Universitas Indonesia, Depok, Jawa Barat, Selasa 19 Desember 2017.

Rudal atau nuklir, kata Amarulla, memiliki jangkauan yang lebih luas, cepat, berdaya ledak lebih tinggi dan juga bisa meledak di mana saja. Serangan atau senjata ini disebut non-konvensional dan harus jadi perhatian masyarakat Indonesia secara keseluruhan.

“Teknisnya kita merancang pertahanan itu jauh di laut internasional. Jadi pesawat-pesawat kita disiapkan menghadang datangnya rudal yang mengancam Indonesia di perairan internasional sehingga kalau terjadi ledakan jauh sekali tidak sampai ke Depok ini,” ujarnya menjelaskan.

Akan tetapi lanjut Amarulla, ada sejumlah persiapan yang harus dipenuhi untuk meminimalisir dampak dari serangan itu, seperti menyiapkan bungker. Sosialisasi kepada masyarakat untuk mengantisipasi serangan nuklir juga harus terus gencar dilakukan.

“Kita cuma punya waktu berlindung 16 menit, itu dari kalkulasi kita (TNI). Dan apakah arahnya (rudal) ke Amerika atau ke mana kita enggaktahu. Kecepatan rudal itu hampir di atas 2 kali kecepatan suara. Ya untuk masyarakat sembunyi kalau TNI menghadang dengan pesawat.”

Indonesia reduces submarine requirements from 12 to 8 in revised modernisation plan

Ridzwan Rahmat - Jane's Navy International
20 December 2017

Key Points

* Indonesia has revised its ambitions to operate a class of 12 submarines by 2024
* Emphasis now shifts towards acquisition of more large surface platforms that can perform ‘on-station’ tasks in Indonesia’s exclusive economic zones

The Indonesian Navy (Tentara Nasional Indonesia – Angkatan Laut, or TNI-AL) has reduced the number of submarines it will require under the Minimum Essential Force (MEF) armed forces modernisation blueprint.

Multiple sources from within the service’s headquarters in Cilangkap, East Jakarta, who are privy to details of these discussions that took place at the flag officers level, have confirmed with Jane’s that the original requirement for 12 submarines by 2024 as stipulated under the MEF blueprint has now been reduced to eight.

Indonesia’s weapons manufacturer PT Sari Bahari said that it will soon begin mass production of P-250 Practice (P) bombs, which will be used to train the Air Force’s Sukhoi fighter jet pilots, after a successful explosion test last week.

The Indonesian firm tested P-250 Live (L) from the Pandanwangi air weapon range (AWR) in Lumajang regency, East Java, last Friday, The Jakarta Post reports. The company said it will produce up to 1,000 P-250 bombs.

Last week, four bombs weighing 250 kilograms each were successfully dropped from two Sukhoi 30MK aircraft on targeted points at the Pandanwangi air weapon range (AWR) in Lumajang regency, East Java.

The P-250 bombs, are for practice and to carry live warheads. It is intended for aircrew training in targeted bombing with assault bombs at a flight configuration of 50 m to 500 m height and 900 km/h speed, as well as for technical staff training in prep work and bomb suspension techniques.

Air Commander Samsul Rizal, the commander of Iswahjudi Air Force Base in Madiun, East Java, told the local news website that Sari Bahari could produce around 250-300 units of P-250 Live bombs per month. It consists of 90 percent local components.

Indonesia receives first Apache Guardian attack helos, says report

Gabriel Dominguez - Jane's Defence Weekly
20 December 2017

The Indonesian Army (Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Darat: TNI-AD) received on 19 December the first three of eight AH-64E Apache Guardian attack helicopters ordered from the United States, according to local media reports.The Indonesian Army received on 19 December the first three AH-64E Apache Guardian attack helicopters (similar to this one) from the United States, according to local media reports.

Indonesian news website detikNews, which published a photograph that same day showing one of the helicopters being unloaded from a US Air Force Boeing C-17 Globemaster III transport aircraft, reported that the remaining five platforms are to be delivered in 2018.

In January 2015 the US Department of Defense awarded Boeing a USD296 million contract to supply Indonesia with eight AH-64E Apache Guardians. The contract represents the largest US sale of a new military platform to Indonesia since Washington lifted an arms embargo imposed on the Southeast Asian country from the 1990s until 2005.

Lockheed Martin was then contracted to supply the helicopters with fire-control sensors in the form of eight Lot 9 Modernised Target Acquisition Designations/Sight Pilot Night Vision Sensors (M-TADS/PNVS), as well as spares.

The latest development took place a day after Jane’s reported that Boeing had offered to expand industrial co-operation with Indonesia in support of the country’s programme to supply Apache Guardians and CH-47F Chinook heavy-lift transport helicopters.

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) in Jakarta said on 13 December that Defence Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu had met with Boeing’s Regional Sales Executive Yeong-Tae Pak to discuss co-operation on both procurement programmes.

Jane’s understands that the TNI-AD has a requirement for a total of 16 Apaches and that the contract for the initial eight aircraft includes options for the acquisition of an additional batch.

Indonesia cancels major reshuffle of generals in unprecedented move

nzindonesia201217_0.jpg


JAKARTA - In an unprecedented move, Indonesia's newly installed armed forces (TNI) chief, Air Chief Marshal Hadi Tjahjanto, has revoked a major reshuffle of more than 30 senior generals ordered by his predecessor, General Gatot Nurmantyo.

"There needs to be change in the armed forces commander's decision on Dec 4, 2017 on the reshuffle of positions within the TNI," Air Chief Marshal Hadi said in a decree signed on Tuesday (Dec 19).

Analysts say the move to revoke the earlier decree issued on Dec 4 by Gen Gatot to install his allies in key positions in the TNI is aimed at curtailing his influence in the armed forces.


Among the appointments that were cancelled were the Army's Strategic Reserve Forces (Pangkostrad) commander, the Sumatra territorial commander and the chief of the TNI intelligence unit.

In a separate decree, also signed on Dec 19, Mr Hadi appointed two-star air marshal Kisenda Wiranata Kusuma as the chief of the TNI intelligence unit. Scores of other high-ranked officers were appointed to fill various posts.

General Gatot reaches the official retirement age of 58 only in March next year. He was appointed to the top TNI post by President Joko Widodo in 2015.

Some said that his early retirement was a response by the Jokowi administration to speculation that the four-star general has higher political ambitions and had manoeuvred himself into a position to run in the next election due in 2019.

General Gatot was widely reported to have enjoyed cozy ties with politicians of the opposition camp while helming TNI.

On Sept 27, General Gatot attended an in-house talk by the Islamic leaning Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), an opposition party whose cadres have been the staunchest critics against President Joko's reform policies. Tempo.co reported that at the Sept 27 event, General Gatot praised PKS as a political party that "consistently exerts efforts to guard the nation's unity".

Active generals traditionally stay out of politics in Indonesia.

At the 71st anniversary of the TNI last year (2016), General Gatot raised eyebrows when he issued a statement calling for the reinstatement of TNI soldiers' political rights.

General Gatot made the decision to reshuffle top ranks within the military just days before Air Marshal Hadi was sworn in as the TNI chief, or Panglima, on Dec 8. Parliament had approved his promotion by Mr Joko almost unanimously.

The strong trust and affinity between the Indonesian President and his new TNI chief is said to have been forged years ago when Air Marshal Hadi was commander of the air base in Solo in Central Java, where Mr Joko was the city's mayor from 2005 to 2012.

Observers say Mr Joko can expect undivided loyalty from his new top military commander.
