Indonesia’s Ministry of Defence (MoD) has set aside a total sum of IDR 28.38 billion (USD 1.9 million-ed) for consultancy services in relation to the acquisition of a sixth submarine for the Indonesian Navy (Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Laut: TNI-AL).




A document on this allocation, which was obtained by Jane’s on 28 August from the ministry’s directorate for defence potential, indicated that the funds will be drawn from Indonesia’s defence budget allocation for 2018.

A specific focus on the consultancy will be on transfer-of-technology (TOT) arrangements, and how Indonesia’s local industry can better benefit from the contract for a sixth submarine when it materialises.

BANDUNG - Kementerian Pertahanan (Kemhan) bakal mengajukan pembelian pengadaan alat utama sistem pertahanan (alutsista) tank untuk tahun anggaran 2018/2019. Pengadaan alutsista diperkirakan akan jatuh kepada 44 unit medium tank produksi PT Pindad.

Direktur Jenderal Potensi Pertahanan (Dirjen Pothan) Kemhan Bondan Tiara Sofyan mengatakan, pihaknya saat ini sedang membahas dan mematangkan alokasi APBN untuk pembelian tank. Program tersebut masuk rencana strategis (renstra) tahap II pengadaan alutsista nasional.

“Proyeksi awal minimal 44 (medium tank). Kami sudah ada alokasi melalui APBN 2018-2019 yang nanti kami akan matangkan,” kata Tiara seusai menghadiri uji tembak medium tank di Pusat Pendidikan Infanteri (Pusdikif) TNI AD Cipatat, Kabupaten Bandung Barat, Senin (27/8/2018).

Menurut Tiara, medium tank produksi bersama Pindad dan FNSS Turki dalam waktu dekat bisa segera diproduksi massal. Saat ini, tank tersebut telah menyelesaikan semua proses pengujian. Selanjutnya, medium tank akan menyelesaikan proses sertifikasi yang diperkirakan memakan waktu satu bulan.

“Hasil uji tembak sangat memuaskan. Semua target bisa disasar dengan baik. Selanjutnya tinggal mass production dan segera diadakan untuk pengadaan bagi TNI AD,” ujar dia.

Sebelumnya, pada 12 dan 14 Juli 2018, medium tank telah melalui mine blast test atau uji ketahanan atas ledak ranjau dengan hasil memuaskan. Pindad juga telah melakukan uji mobilitas dan performa pada 7-16 Agustus 2018. Pada 25-27 Agustus 2018 dilakukan uji daya gempur dengan menembakkan 28 butir peluru.

Dankodiklat TNI AD Mayjen TNI AM Putranto mengungkapkan, untuk pengadaan pihaknya harus membicarakan dengan Kasad. Karena ini menyangkut kesiapan operasional dan kebutuhan pada unit tertentu. Untuk SDM yang akan mengoperasikannya, dia mengaku telah siap. Apalagi tank ini mudah dioperasikan.

“Ini sangat mudah dioperasikannya. Tidak beda jauh dengan leopard dan main battle tank. Untuk pengadaan, minimal satu kavaleri. Harapan tank ini bisa menambah kekuatan di jajaran TNI AD,” kata Putranto.

Sementara itu, Dirut PT Pindad Abraham Mose mengatakan, PT Pindad siap memproduksi massal medium tank. Prototipe tank ini tinggal dilakukan penyempurnaan setelah uji coba selama satu bulan terakhir.

“Setelah ini kami akan lakukan kan perbaikan.Penyempurnaan mungkin kecil untuk improvement saja. Satu bulan sertifikasi sehingga akhir tahun bisa masuk mess produk untuk dukung kekuatan TNI,” ujar Abraham.

Key Points

• PT Dirgantara has confirmed plans to market a gunship variant of the CN-235 turboprop aircraft
• Work on a demonstrator platform is currently under way, and the company aims for its first flight in 2019

Indonesian state-owned aircraft manufacturer PT Dirgantara (PTDI) has begun work on a gunship variant of the CN-235 twin-engine multipurpose aircraft, the company has confirmed to Jane’s .

The aircraft, which is based on the company’s CN-235-220 airframe, is being developed as a demonstrator platform, and will be marketed to potential customers in the Middle Eastern, African, and Central and Southeast Asian regions, said the company.

The aircraft is being modified to carry one single-barrelled 30 mm DEFA 553 aircraft cannon on the portside aft of its fuselage. The weapon has been salvaged from a retired Douglas A-4H Skyhawk that was formerly in service with the Indonesian Air Force (Tentara Nasional Indonesia – Angkatan Udara: TNI-AU).

The DEFA 553 cannon has a muzzle velocity of 810 m/s, and can fire up to 1,200 rds/min at both air and surface targets. There are also plans to complement this weapon with electro-optical targeting systems and a laser designator. However, the company has yet to decide on systems that will be selected for these roles on the demonstrator.

Other differences that the gunship demonstrator will feature over earlier versions of PTDI’s CN-235 include using General Electric (GE) CT7-9 turboprop engines, instead of the older CT7-7. The aircraft has also been built with wingtip devices to improve the aircraft’s overall fuel efficiency.

Indonesia confirms plan to buy US-made Hercules C-130 planes
Rabu, 29 Agustus 2018 23:03 WIB - 0 Views

Reporter: Antara

Jakarta, (ANTARA News) - Indonesia has confirmed a plan to buy Hercules C-130 planes and other transport planes from the United States to support the development of its defense architecture.

"In future, Indonesia plans to buy several primary weaponry systems, including Hercules C-130 planes, and other heavy-duty transport planes from the US," Indonesian Defense Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu said, while paying a courtesy call on US Secretary of Defense James Mattis in Washington DC, on Tuesday.

In the long run, Indonesia is committed to gradually improving its primary weaponry systems on a self-reliant basis and under a partnership scheme with friendly countries, Ryacudu stated.

"Through the partnership, Indonesia will gradually be able to build defense industry as part of the national strategic industry on its own," he noted.

The former army chief of staff added that Indonesia aimed to not only be able to meet its primary weaponry systems but also to sell them to friendly countries.

At the meeting, the two officials also agreed to enhance defense and military cooperation between the two nations at various levels, including mutual visits by top officials, exchange of staff and command school students, intelligence education, and exchange of strategic information.

"We must maintain and improve the various areas of cooperation in the form of capacity and capability building," he remarked.

In response, Mattis explained that the US is committed to maintaining and improving its defense cooperation with Indonesia, covering exchange of military officials and students, joint exercises, and procurement of primary weaponry systems.

The US is also committed to increasing the quota of Indonesian military officers to attend military education in the US.

If we see the PTDI Gunship proposal pic it is also equipped with radome, torpedoes and missiles. Looks like this gunship role is more towards maritime patrol. CMIIW.

Marsekal Pertama Gita Amperiawan, Direktur Teknologi dan Pengembangan PT Dirgantara Indonesia, dan Maria Lane, Wakil Presiden Kemitraan Strategis Internasional Boeing, selepas penandatanganan MOU untuk menjajaki peluang kerja sama yang meliputi bidang manufaktur, pemeliharaan, dukungan, pelatihan dan sertifikasi. (istimewa)

Bisnis.com, JAKARTA – PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI) menandatangani Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) dengan Boeing untuk menjajaki peluang kerja sama yang meliputi bidang teknologi manufaktur, sertifikasi, serta dukungan dan pemeliharaan terhadap produk gaya angkat vertikal (atau vertical lift) di industri kedirgantaraan.

"Boeing dan industri dirgantara Indonesia telah bekerja bersama selama hampir 70 tahun. Kami melihat memorandum ini sebagai langkah penting untuk mendukung visi Indonesia bagi pembangunan ekonomi saat ini dan di masa depan, serta pertumbuhan sektor kedirgantaraan.” tutur Skip Boyce, Presiden Boeing Southeast Asia dalam siaran pers, Kamis (30/8/2018).

Sementara itu, Direktur Utama PTDI Elfien Goentoro mengungkapkan perseroan berkomitmen terus membangun sektor kedirgantaraan Indonesia dan telah menunjukkan kemampuan di bidang desain dan pengembangan pesawat terbang, manufaktur struktur, serta produksi dan layanan untuk pesawat komersial dan militer.

"PTDI telah menjadi pemasok untuk Boeing Commercial Airplanes, dan perjanjian ini akan memperluas kerja sama kami pada bidang militer dengan peluang di bidang kemampuan gaya angkat vertikal," ungkap Elfien.

Hubungan Boeing dengan Indonesia dimulai sejak tahun 1949 ketika Garuda Indonesia, maskapai penerbangan nasional, mulai beroperasi menggunakan Douglas DC-3.

Saat ini, pesawat Boeing telah mendapat kepercayaan dari sejumlah maskapai penerbangan di Indonesia, dan kerja sama dengan Indonesia telah berkembang ke penerbangan komersial, pertahanan, ruang angkasa, serta penelitian dan teknologi.

Pada bidang militer, pemerintah Indonesia menandatangani surat penawaran dan penerimaan dengan pemerintah AS pada Agustus 2013 untuk delapan helikopter Apache AH-64E, helikopter serang multi-peran terkemuka di dunia. Pengiriman kedelapan helikopter telah diselesaikan awal tahun ini.
