answering that is very dangerous business especially here
but TLDR, whatever the current head of power wants, he gets. Thats it, thats the plan
AF has a plan for more fighter squadron in the future? dont mind that, we need to fulfill that plan now! buy everything
i still havent mentioned some crazy bad procurement plans for the future, like the used-Midas or the second-hand pakistani AWACS

Are there any plane that the AF is gonna retire their old fleet ?
It could be that they wanna replace the su27 and the f16 fleet with newer batch
IIRC the hawks is most likely going to be either retired or kept in reserve, the Su-35 is being brought in supposedly to replace the older sukhois, they’re going to be put into the same base so who knows
F-16 news are pretty quiet, nothing to mention there

ohh no wonder KERIS X account feel like average engagement bait page, they are handled by different people (Personally KERIS FB page is better)
the twitter page is good for the talk shows, like the KF-21 discussion, i learned quite a lot from there
but yes the facebook page guy is definitely the more “reckless” in the info they post

AFAIK it’s just a rumor started by a Janes article, as I haven’t heard local sources mentioning them. The Indonesian Navy themself also being vague on what they plan to do with Garibaldi, aside from its peacetime duties

Hello everyone! Today I would like to suggest the Hawk 53! This is an Indonesian-export variant of the British Hawk 50 series, which is an improved export model of the Hawk T Mk.1. First flew in 1976, It features an improved cockpit instrumentation, additional external weapon stations, and an increase in range and weapons load which allows the jet to act as both an advanced train…

got news we’re apparently getting the J-10CE (24 units) as well was the PL-15E missiles. If this is true then I’m thankful its not the J-10B. Questionable decision still, but not as outrageous as before, plus the missile news is fantastic

for context, this guy was the first source to mention we’re getting the M-346FA, so i think his word hold some weight
