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
question is will Gaijin not get spooked like the VT-4 tank.
no micas?

What happened to the plans Indonesia had of buying an Italian aircraf carrier that included some AV-8Bs?
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
Hawk 53 suggestion is up!
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
each day they the japanese tech tree becomes closer to being the nation from ace combat
small general update:
