Still they have to undergo some conversion program to be adapted to new aircraft. After all the tech. generation is different between 70's and 2000'sAt ADEX we are exhibiting our latest contribution in the airborne segment; a new AESA fighter radar addressing the Korean KF-X programme, but with many other applications also.

Penulis Berita : DN, PPES • Fotografer : PPES • 08 Sep 2015
LAPAN dan PT Dirgantara Indonesia tengah berkomitmen mewujudkan pesawat transport nasional yang sepenuhnya dirancang oleh putra putri Indonesia. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan pembuatan pesawat penumpang berkapasitas 19 orang yang diberinama Pesawat N219. Pesawat N219 kelak menjadi noda transportasi utama bagi pulau-pulau di Indonesia yang tidak dapat ditempuh oleh jalur darat dan laut.
“Pesawat N219 siap Roll Out pada Peringatan Hari Sumpah Pemuda 2015”. Hal ini disampaikan oleh Kepala Deputi Bidang Teknologi Penerbangan dan Antariksa LAPAN, Dr. Rika Andiarti dalam acara FGD dan Monitoring Progress Kesiapan Roll out N219 di Gedung PM PT Dirgantara Indonesia, Bandung, Selasa (8/9).
Rika menjelaskan bahwa LAPAN dan PT DI sudah berkomitmen Kepada Presiden & Menristek Dikti untuk melaksanakan roll out pada tanggal 28 Oktober 2015 bertepatan dengan Peringatan Hari Sumpah Pemuda. Pada acara tersebut akan ditampilkan komponen Airworthiness N219 yang terdiri dari Fuselage, Wing, Ethernet & Control services dan komponen-komponen Class one Mockup.
Sebagai upaya untuk menumbuhkembangkan industri UKM di Indonesia, tool & panel Jig N219 merupakan hasil produksi industri kecil di area Bandung & Jateng.
Sesuai target awal, untuk prototype pesawat N219 akan memenuhi 40% TKDN (Tingkat Komponen Dalam Negeri). Kemudian untuk jangka waktu 5 sampai dengan 10 tahun kedepan akan dinaikkan menjadi 60%. Sejalan dengan dukungan dan semangat dari Kemenperin dan Asosiasi Industri Komponen untuk mempersiapkan Airframe Part (Komponen Pesawat Terbang) buatan dalam Negeri.
Pesawat N219 ini nantinya akan menjadi perwujudan harapan anak bangsa akan pencapaian teknologi tingkat tinggi dibidang penerbangan. Dengan demikian, pesawat N219 benar-benar akan menjadi karya kebanggaan anak bangsa yang melintas di langit nusantara.

Indonesia Will Buy US-2 SinMaywa Amphibious Aircraft
Indonesia Beli Kendaraan Amfibi Buatan Jepang
Jumat, 23 Oktober 2015 09:16 WIB
Tribunnews.com/Richard Susilo
Perundingan pembelian kendaraan amfibi baru dimulai antara pihak Indonesia yang diwakili KBRI di Tokyo dengan pihak Jepang, Jumat (23/10/2015)
TRIBUNNEWS.COM, TOKYO - Indonesia akan membeli persenjataan amphibi dari Jepang dalam waktu dekat. Perundingan baru dimulai antara pihak Indonesia yang diwakili KBRI di Tokyo dengan pihak Jepang.
"Presiden kita sudah menandatangani kesepakatan jual beli ini dengan pihak Jepang lewat MOU Pertahanan Indonesia-Jepang dan kini kita sedang bicarakan soal teknisnya," papar Ben Perkasa Wakil Duta Besar Indonesia di KBRI Tokyo khusus kepada Tribunnews.com pagi ini Jumat (23/10/2015).
Amphibi US-2 yang akan dibeli Indonesia itu masih dalam proses pembicaraan khususnya dengan pembuatnya, Shin Maywa perusahaan Jepang.
"Itu multi function bisa untuk SAR, pemadam kebakaran, patroli pengawasan di pulau terpencil, penanganan cepat kecelakaan di laut, dropping logistik sampai terjunkan pasukan TNI di berbagai lokasi," papar Tawakal Syaifulhaq, mantan atase pertahanan KBRITokyo yang hari ini serah terima dengan pejabat yang baru Ian Fuady.
Mesin amphibi tersebut butuh take off dan landing hanya butuh jarak 350 meter di laut, "Bisa berjalan pada ketinggian ombak 3 meter. Sangat baik sekali khususnya bagi Indonesia yang memiliki banyak pulau bagi pertahanan dalam negeri Indonesia," tambahnya.
Penawaran dari Shin Maywa telah dilakukan dan presentasi sudah dilakukan dengan harga sekitar 100 juta dolar AS per unit.

1 ShinMaywa can get 2.5 Beriev Be-200 based on 2006 price in wikipedia (US$ 40 million).
Maybe this old news from ARC can describe about them:
Be-200 juga memiliki banderol harga yang murah. Dalam sistem pengadaan alutsista yang mengutamakan harga yang murah, murah, dan murah sebagai prioritas, Be-200 dapat memenangkan persaingan walaupun secara performa mayoritas lebih inferior dari US-2. Namun patut juga diingat, belajar dari India yang mengakuisisi US-2, Jepang rela membagi kontrak offset nyaris 50% dari nilai kontrak senilai 1,65 miliar USD, plus ditambah seluruh pesawat akan dirakit dalam lini perakitan di India. Ini berarti merupakan transfer of technologyyang sangat berarti, bukan yang sekedar memenuhi persyaratan UU Indhan. Apalagi Jepang sebagai negara donor selama ini dikenal kooperatif dan dapat diajak bicara mengenai proyek-proyek yang sifatnya strategis. Bukan tak mungkin tawarannya jauh lebih baik daripada India yang baru-baru ini saja mesra dengan Jepang.
Sementara bercermin dari pengadaan alutsista udara Rusia sebelumnya, kita sebagai negara mendapatkan apa sebagai imbal baliknya? Adakah transfer teknologi ke industri dirgantara dalam negeri yang berarti?

Lockheed Martin announces Indonesian radar industry initiative - ANTARA News
Lockheed Martin announces Indonesian radar industry initiative
Rabu, 6 Agustus 2014 10:29 WIB | 2.823 Views
Lockheed Martin radar. (lockheedmartin.com)
Jakarta,Aug 6 (Antara) - Lockheed Martin has launched an Indonesian radar industry initiative as part of its efforts to support the countrys plans to modernize and extend its air surveillance coverage.
"Lockheed Martin is committed to supporting Indonesia and its defense industry revitalization plans," said Robert Laing, National Executive of Lockheed Martin Indonesia, in a press statement here on Wednesday.
This initiative includes technology transfers to aid in the development of a new Indonesian radar industry, as well as partnerships with local universities to cultivate the workforce necessary to support it.
Enhancing Indonesias ability to make critical radar components will reduce the nations reliance on foreign suppliers, while providing employment opportunities for its citizens.
"Our goal is to create a new technology sector and associated jobs to ensure a sustainable industry in Indonesia."
Lockheed Martin has worked with the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) to produce an engineering curriculum focused on radar technologies.
Similar programs, along with ongoing technical seminars and education opportunities, are training future leaders in the development of this technology. The Corporation also has established an Indonesia-based manufacturing capability with local companies, which have begun producing radar components.
Lockheed Martin is competing for Indonesias Ground Control Intercept (GCI) radar program. Should the company be selected for this opportunity, it would provide significant new employment possibilities for its local industry partners, estimated at up to 2 million labor hours over the lifetime of these radars. These Indonesian partners would be capable of producing nearly $100M (USD) of radar components per year.
Lockheed Martins extensive air surveillance radar experience can help Indonesia ensure a safe and secure airspace for both civilian air traffic and national sovereignty for many years to come.
Lockheed Martin has produced and currently maintains more than 200 air surveillance radars in 30 countries. Operational around the world 24 hours a day, these radars work completely unmanned and many have performed for decades in extremely harsh, remote environments.
None of these radars has ever been taken out of service, and many systems continue to operate well beyond their original 20-year service lives. This longevity is a result of Lockheed Martins continuous investment in state-of-the-art technology and its commitment to customer missions.
Headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland, Lockheed Martin is a global security and aerospace company that employs approximately 113,000 people worldwide and is principally engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services. The Corporations net sales for 2013 were $45.4 billion.

Lockheed Martin and Indonesia seek to progress radar programme
Jon Grevatt, Bangkok - IHS Jane's Defence Industry
17 February 2015
Lockheed Martin and senior Indonesian defence officials met on 17 February with a view to progress the Indonesian Air Force's (TNI-AU's) requirement to procure ground-based air-surveillance radar systems.
The Indonesian Ministry of Defence (MoD) said representatives of Lockheed Martin met with Defence Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu in Jakarta to "determine the continuation" of the radar requirement, which the MoD is undertaking in co-operation with the TNI-AU and local industry. The MoD said the procurement is being progressed, but did not elaborate.
The MoD added that Lockheed Martin, should it win the contract, is aiming to support the local production of radar systems by transferring technologies to Indonesia as per the terms of the country's Defence Industry Law 2012, which requires all foreign contractors to involve local industry in all major defence programmes.
