Air Diplomacy, Apa Cukup Beli Empat Pesawat Sukhoi?

Indonesia mengambil empat Sukhoi dari Rusia saat AS memberikan embargo suku cadang pesawat. Cukupkah empat Sukhoi?

nasional.kompas.com

even the one who signed the contract for early Sukhoi batch is giving his clue about Air Force preferences to use US fighter and only bought Flanker as wake up call and diplomatic pressure against USA

Yes, and at the same time he also reveals that the effects of the US arms embargo against us was true and real... contrary to the insistence of some posters here that seems to think otherwise... and it became so bad that we actually had to take the 'extreme' measure of actually buying those Sukhois even with our very limited budget just to make that damned point... And that is the whole point of arms diversification, so that we would no longer be beholden to just a single provider, be less susceptible to their pressures and keep our options open...

US arms embargoe came into effect because our sheer ignorance in the past to the point of stupidity to not be able to see the geopolitical changes and utterly bloody governance who likes to put gun on our own people and even foreign civillian. It is very different with to use arms to suppressing armed rebellion like PRRI PERMESTA or DI/TII but to use violence measure against unarmed protest in cemetery is sheer arrogance. And our armed forces at the time being degraded to just become a hired thugs of the most powerfull family in Indonesia, instead of protector for the people and country and its society.

There is nothing to be proud just to be at the end of received ends of such treatment though, lesson had been learned so our political government must be more wiser and can read such situation more accurately.

All Our fighter use their own original missile, so I'm pretty sure he's not talking about Air Force.
Is he talking about Navy vs MBDA?

Or is he talking about integration of Link16 and Link Y into scytalis BMS ??

Of course its true and real, thats the whole point of an embargo. But did they do it out of nothing? no. Did we also manage to circumvent it? yes.

Why do we still use something so old? It feels like one of those fossils in LATAM that were already obsolete during the cold war
