usually the deal could take around 10 years, but this is based on the deals we signed

the late offset is not discount, more like compensation

when we sign the deal in 2007 it is also involved local companies in manufacturing parts for the plane as well (one of the economic offset) so the largest iinm CTRM will supply composite material to airbus military, another company will manufactured pylons and there is another company that produce some parts for landing gears (can't recall which parts). Also airbus provide university partnership in aviation technology along with industrial training and work placement for the eligible ada lagi tp tak ingt and with the delay ada lagi byk dpt tapi tak igt.

the airbus deals is huge and way better with just a mere C130J in exchange for money offered from the US.

itu pun ada jugak bising kenapa tak amik C130J... euuwwww

why do US pressure Indonesia???

"A Pack Of Leopards"

Argentina's navy says searchers deep in the Atlantic have found the missing submarine ARA San Juan, which disappeared with 44 crewmen aboard almost a year ago to the date.

The vessel was detected 800 metres deep in waters off the Valdes Peninsula in Argentine Patagonia, the navy statement said.

The navy said a "positive identification" had been made by a remote-operated submersible from the American ship Ocean Infinity, which was hired for the latest search for the missing vessel.

It had earlier tweeted that it was investigating a "point of interest" where a 60-metre-long object had been detected.

The discovery was announced just two days after families of the missing sailors held a commemoration one year after the sub disappeared on November 15, 2017.

On Thursday, on the anniversary of the disappearance, President Mauricio Macri said the families of the submariners should not feel alone and delivered an "absolute and non-negotiable commitment" to find "the truth".

Mr Macri promised a full investigation after the submarine was lost. Federal police raided naval bases and other buildings last January as part of the probe, soon after the Government dismissed the head of the navy.

The San Juan was returning to its base in the coastal city of Mar del Plata when contact was lost.

The navy has previously said the captain reported on November 15 that water entered the snorkel and caused one of the sub's batteries to short-circuit. The captain later communicated that it had been contained.

Some hours later, an explosion was detected near the time and place where the San Juan was last heard from.

The navy said the blast could have been caused by a "concentration of hydrogen" triggered by the battery problem reported by the captain.

Argentina gave up hope of finding survivors after an intense search aided by 18 countries, but the navy has continued searching for the vessel.

The German-built diesel-electric TR-1700 class submarine was commissioned in the mid-1980s and was most recently refitted between 2008 and 2014.

During the $US12 million ($16 million) retrofitting, the vessel was cut in half and had its engines and batteries replaced.

Experts said refits could be difficult because they involve integrating systems produced by different manufacturers, and even the tiniest mistake during the cutting phase can put the safety of the ship and crew at risk.

Ocean Infinity was the same ship hired for our MH370 search few months ago wasn't it?

Guys, what are your views on a hypothetical Joint R&D project between Malaysia and Singapore on developing new weapons to challenge China in the South China Sea? Is it a viable option for Malaysia in its current financial situation? Would the benefits outweigh the costs?
