the reason i think its high/hard is cause we not compete with SG only. Indon also heading toward that and they are more cheaper. plus their govt keep promote the industry wherever they going.

If Algerian, Morrocan and Qatar Navies could buy and afford Aster....why not Indonesia?

With $7.7 billion budget...Indonesia can allocate more than $1 billion for procurement.

I don't know whether this list is accurate, but seems plausible

Europe
Aster 15: $27 Million (Generation 10) - France, Italy, UK
Aster 30: $34 Million (Generaton 10) - France, Italy, UK
ROLAND: $12 Million (Generation 7) - France, Germany, UK
ROLAND 2: $15 Million (Generation 7) - France, Germany, UK
ROLAND 3: $17 Million (Generation 8) - France, Germany, UK
ROLAND VT1: $24 Million (Generation 9) - France, Germany, UK
MEADS: $70 Million (Generation 10) - Germany/Italy/USA

My intention isn't really about comparing Iver with Hobart, Formidable, etc.....It's only about having worthy air defense system for TNI-AL. Simple.

A look back in history: Malaysia cancels Tornado jets order
...
And as we know after this Malaysia puchased the BAe Hawk instead.

dun leave anything to chances

why not list it and we shall see

banyak je projek kawan baik kne bail out

tak payah nak cakap pertahanan aja

betul tak?

Gagah samudera is actually not an issue of curruption rather it is involving the UN lol

Furthermore, the Israeli navy (bizarrely like Singapore, had not updated its harpoon missiles for years or replaced them, in spite of acquiring new systems and platforms) is already spotted with the launch canisters. Pictures from the link above and source is from gettyimages:

Nope, one of the subsidiary of the company deals with Iran company. At that time Iran is still under UN embargo.

The total life expectancy of any Block III Super Hornet, new build or updated, will be around 9,000 flight hours, a fifty percent increase over Block II aircraft.

Super Hornets in the Block III configuration will have five major upgrades over the previous Block II types. These include are conformal fuel tanks (CFT), updated and added coatings to reduce its radar signature, a set of new mission computers and data links, and a single, readily customizable wide-area multi-function display will go into each cockpit, including the rear seat on two-seat F/A-18F models.

In addition, two previously planned upgrades to the Block II Super Hornets are getting rolled in with the Block III program.  These are the ability to carry a modified centerline drop tank with a networked infrared search and track (IRST) sensor and an improved satellite communications (SATCOM) system. You can read more about these updates in detail in The War Zone's past feature on the Block III Super Hornet.

What to do, that time need to please our PRC overlords.

IMO if the APMM OPV design proves to be a success, the RMN should scrap the LMS part of their plan and just replace them with OPVs. Everything about the LMS gets on my nerves.

pinoys should watch this..

I don't know if the words can be used to describe a ship, but this seems more dignified and proud than the LMS model, which looks like an overgrown coastal patrol boat.

sos

No need so complicated. Just send a frigate off Bandar Sri Begawan, shoot a cannon shell at the Sultan's palace and send an emmissary afterwards. Confirm surrender.
