Indonesian Air Force crash prompts calls for modernisation

Jon Grevatt, Bangkok - IHS Jane's Defence Industry
01 July 2015


The crash on 30 June of an Indonesian Air Force (TNI-AU) Lockheed Martin C-130B Hercules transport aircraft, which is estimated to have killed more than 140 people, has prompted calls for the country to review its procurement methods as well as replace its ageing military inventories.

The aircraft crashed into a residential area in Medan, North Sumatra, shortly after taking off from the Soewondo Air Force Base in the city. The TNI-AU has grounded its eight remaining C-130B aircraft, which have been in service since the early 1960s, while an investigation gets under way.

It was the fourth Hercules variant operated by the TNI-AU to go down since 2000.

Indonesian Air Force Plans to Replace C-130 Hercules

By Editor on Friday, July 10th, 2015


Indonesian Air Force Chief of Staff, Air Marshal Agus Supriatna, revealed that he has conducted a study to replace Hercules aircraft with new transport aircraft.

“We have conducted a study to replace C-130 Hercules aircraft with the new ones either from France, the United States, or Russia, but the replacement depends on the government,” Supriatna stated at the Cilangkap Air Force Headquarters in East Jakarta on Tuesday.

According to Supriatna, the result of the study has been submitted to the Ministry of Defense to arrive at a decision on whether to replace the Hercules aircraft with the new transport aircraft.

“Our 2015-2019 strategic plan is to replace the F5 jet fighters and to procure heavy transport aircraft, heavy transport helicopters, and large transport helicopters,” he affirmed.

When contacted separately, Defense Ministry’s Head of Public Communication Brigadier General Jundan Eko Bintoro justified the plan to replace the Hercules aircraft with either Airbus A400M from France or Boeing C-17 from the United States, as the two types of transport aircraft have large capacity.

“The Airbus A400M and Boeing C-17 Globemaster are larger and newer, and the procurement is expected to be made during the period between 2016 and 2018

03 August 2015


The Indonesian Navy (Tentara Nasional Indonesia - Angkatan Laut: TNI-AL) has inducted three KCR-40-class anti-ship missile craft into the service's Western Fleet (Komando Armada RI Kawasan Barat: KOARMABAR).

The vessels, KRI Surik (645), KRI Siwar (646), KRI Parang (647), were commissioned in September 2014 by then Indonesian defence minister Purnomo Yusgiantoro.

In a statement published by KOAMRABAR on 3 August, the command described the KCR-40 as a suitable platform for the western region's relatively shallow waters and a landscape inundated with clusters of small islands that allow for 'hit-and-run' operations against larger surface combatants.

Surik , Siwar , and Parang were manufactured indigenously by local shipbuilder PT Palindo in Batam.

ndonesia hopes to sign contract with Russia on S-300 missile systems By Dylan Vosman - Aug 26, 2015


Indonesia hopes to sign contract with Russia on S-300 missile systems Indonesia Russian cooperation in the military field continues to grow. Defence attache to Russia, Colonel (Pilot), Andi Kustoro, said the TNI continues to enhance its defense equipment. One of them seeks to modernize combat equipment capabilities. According to Andi, one of the combat equipment that has been planned is to add a collection of BMP-3F amphibious tanks, buy a helicopter simulators for the Army, as well as exploring the purchase of S-300. The S-300 (NATO reporting name SA-10 Grumble) is a series of initially Soviet and later Russian long range surface-to-air missile systems produced by NPO Almaz, based on the initial S-300P version. The S-300 system was developed to defend against aircraft and cruise missiles for the Soviet Air Defence Forces. Subsequent variations were developed to intercept ballistic missiles.

Indonesia to cut defence spending by 1.7%

 Maki Catama         


JAKARTA, -- Indonesia intends to reduce defence expenditure by 1.7% to IDR95.9 trillion (USD6.7 billion) in 2016, according to figures contained within the draft budget.

The reduction in spending follows a 17.1% increase in 2015 and represents only the second time the defence budget has been cut in the last decade.

Draft budget documentation also shows that actual spending on defence in 2015 is expected to reach around IDR102.3 billion, an increase of 4.8% or IDR4.7 trillion over the revised budget allocation planned by the government.

As such the draft budget for 2016 ostensibly represents a 6.2% reduction compared with the funding provided for defence in 2015.

Indonesia ready to buy new submarines in Russia — defense minister

Military & Defense September 22, 8:36 UTC+3
The minister noted that Russian subs can perform longer missions underwater and cruise at lower depths compared with the subs from other countries



BANGKOK, September 21. /TASS/. Indonesia is considering Russia as a potential supplier of new submarines for its naval forces, Defense Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu said on Monday upon the end of his meeting with deputies of the national parliament.




The meeting was held behind closed doors.
The new purchases had been endorsed by the president, Ryacudu said, adding a remark that it was much better to buy five new submarines than ten second-hand ones.
He named Russia as an expected supplier of the submarines, saying the Russian subs could perform longer missions underwater and cruise at lower depths compared with the subs from other countries.
Ryacudu did not specify the type of the submarines the Indonesian Armed Forces had interest in or the possible date for signing of the contract.
Russian Minister of Industry and Energy, Denis Manturov, said during a visit to Jakarta in October 2014 that Indonesia was considering a purchase of diesel-powered submarines of the Varshavyanka class.

Pacific 2015: Indonesia in talks with France over possible sale of Scorpene 1000 SSK

Ridzwan Rahmat, Sydney - IHS Jane's Navy International

06 October 2015

Key Points

•Indonesia is considering acquisition of the Scorpene 1000 diesel-electric submarine
•The purchase could help bolster Indonesia's archipelagic brownwater deterrence capabilities

Indonesian government officials are in talks with French counterparts over a possible sale of the French-built Scorpene 1000 diesel-electric submarine (SSK), shipbuilder DCNS told IHS Jane's on 7 October at the Pacific 2015 international maritime exhibition and conference in Sydney.

"The talks are going on at the government-to-government level, mostly to discuss the needs of the Indonesian Navy," said DCNS.

"So far, what the Indonesians have identified is the need for a complementary submarine fleet that can fill in the gaps of their new ocean-going submarines, and they are considering the Scorpene 1000."

The Indonesian Navy (Tentera Nasional Indonesia - Angkatan Laut, or TNI-AL) currently operates two Cakra Type 209/1300-class SSKs and is awaiting the delivery of three Type 209/1400 conventional boats - widely referred to in Indonesia as the Chang Bogo class - from South Korean company Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering (DSME).

Indonesian media reports have also indicated that the country may be purchasing a number of 'Kilo'-class SSKs from Russia, although a contract for these has not yet materialised.

"The Scorpene 1000 is an especially suitable platform for the Indonesian Navy, given the country's archipelagic nature," said DCNS.

"The platform has been designed to operate ... in shallow waters and is very difficult to detect due to the depths associated with littoral waters."

According to specifications provided by DCNS, the 50 m Scorpene 1000 has a surface displacement of about 1,000 tonnes. It has a maximum submerged speed in excess of 15 kt, a maximum range in excess of 4,000 n miles, and a submerged endurance of up to five days. It has a dive depth in excess of 200 m, and can accommodate 21 crew (with space for up to six divers).

An improved version of Indonesia's indigenously developed R-HAN 122 mm rocket has been successfully launched during live firing trials at the country's National Institute of Aeronautics and Space (LAPAN) test facility in Garut, West Java in August 2015.

The latest trial validated improvements in flight stability and range that were incorporated into the R-HAN 122B rocket after an earlier test in June.

The rocket is being developed by a consortium that includes state-owned aerospace and defence equipment developers PT Dahana, PT Dirgantara and PT Pindad, as well as LAPAN, and Indonesia's Ministry for Research, and the Technology and Agency for the Assessment and Application of Technology.

According to PT Dirgantara, the R-HAN 122B has an overall length of 2,810 mm and features a hydroxylammonium nitrate (HAN) rocket motor, which has a burn time of three seconds. Average stated thrust is 1,437 kg, with an impulse of 4,809 kg/s, enabling it to achieve a maximum range of 30.5 km. The rocket carries a 15 kg warhead, although no details were revealed on its type.

The company also stated that the R-HAN 122B is compatible with the Russian and Czech Republic Grad BM-21 and RM-70 multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS), the latter of which is in service with the Indonesian Marine Corps.

AW101 présidentiel pour l’Indonésie !




La Force aérienne indonésienne a sélectionné l'hélicoptère AgustaWestland AW101 multirôle pour répondre à son exigence en matière de transport présidentielle.

Trois appareils présidentiels:

Selon le porte-parole de la Force aérienne indonésienne, le pays va acquérir trois hélicoptères AW101 en configuration « VIP ». Le programme est estimé à père de 120 millions de dollars.


AgustaWestland AW101 :

L’AgustaWestland AW101 tri-turbine doté de structures en nid d’abeille à base d’alliage en aluminium-lithium et composite, surmonté d’un rotor à 5 pales, qui vola pour la première fois en 1987. Les difficultés financières rencontrées par Westland obligèrent une réorganisation du groupe pour donner naissance à AgustaWestland et la disparition d’EH Industrie. Les premières commandes furent obtenues en 1991.

L’appareil offre deux motorisations à choix soit, le Rolls-Royce-Turbomeca RTM322 ou le General Electric CT7-8. L’AW101 dispose d’un cockpit doté d’écrans EFIS compatible NVG (Night Vision Goggle) d’un système de communication par satellite, d’un TCAS (Terrain ans Collision Avoidance System). 
Il offre une capacité opérationnelle accrue tout en répondant aux exigences de sécurité les plus récentes, qui comprennent la redondance dans les systèmes critiques, il est notamment capable de voler durant 30 minutes, après que la boîte de vitesses soit à court de lubrifiant

Indonésie, bisbille sur le choix de l’AW101 !




Je vous annonçais le 28 novembre dernier, la Force aérienne indonésienne a sélectionné l'hélicoptère AgustaWestland AW101 multirôle pour répondre à son exigence en matière de transport présidentielle. Seulement voilà, ce choix ce choix ne plaît pas au Président !


Une situation surréaliste :

Le choix de l’AgustaWestland AW101 a été fait, selon un programme bien défini et en toute transparence. De fait, les responsables de la Force aérienne ont tout naturellement annoncés le choix final en ce qui concerne l’hélicoptère européen. Mais de son côté, le Président indonésien Joko Widodo à quant à lui, refusé ce choix. Il semble que celui-ci a ordonné l'achat d'un hélicoptère assemblé localement, ou avec un contenu local important. Hors, l’Indonésie ne dispose pas d’infrastructures permettant l’assemblage sur son sol d’un hélicoptère de ce type.

Du côté de l’hélicoptériste, on soutient que le cahier des charges ne demandait pas d’assemblage en Indonésie et que le contrat prenait en compte d’importants offsets pour satisfaire l’industrie du pays.

La malchance :

Cette situation en Indonésie ressemble à s’y méprendre, à celle qui a eu lieu aux Etats-Unis, avec le choix de l’AW101 par le gouvernement Bush, puis remis en question à l’arrivée des démocrates qui ont finalement favorisés Sikorsky.

On ne sait pas pour l’heure qu’elle sera exactement la finalité de l’achat ou non de l’AW101 dans ce pays, l’armée précise qu’elle désire cet hélicoptère et non un autre !
