Is this not an RP-3 mounted on the P-51? Never seen this before

With Malaysia in game I am sad we don’t have her P-51 these WW2 props plus the Thai stuff would provide some good fighter bomber options for ground line ups.

I have a theory that back in the 1950s, AURI sourced their aerial bombs and rockets from the British, and that seems to support it. It’s unfortunate that I have yet to find sources explicitly mentioning it.
A while ago I discovered that Indonesian B-25 and B-26 were equipped with what looks like British bombs.

tbf we’re still using British bombs well until the 1990s (in the case of the hawk53), and also there was a lot of mention of the RAF in the Angkasa 1951-52 books, but dunno if theres a correlation there or not
theyre accessible via wikipedia if any of yall wanna read them (obviously in Indonesian, and only the 1951-52 version)
click the link, click the image on the page, itll bring you to its own pdf reader

That’s interesting though people don’t seem to care where a munition came from just that it works.

Quick question if anyone knows
the base T-50 doesnt have that square bit, so whats its for? is it for the RWR or for something else?

by just looking at it you cant really tell what that antenna is for
a few possible options imo would be:
- Navigation
- DL
- GPS
- RWR

Id argue the SKM is better for the tech tree since its somewhat unique to Indonesia, and I can see the MK2 be used as a prem for its CAS role since its basically the same as the venezuelan one

i would say that the Su-27SKM would be a better option over the 30MK2
also dosent Indonesia also have the base Su-27?

Hmm true, MK2 as premium and SKM for TT maybe better. :P
Yea but I don’t consider it as a good addition tbh.

could be foldered with either 27skm or 30mk2
if we want the most unique option then there is the Su-30KI
You could classify the Lim-6bis as a “Strike” aircraft since it was primarily used as a ground attack vehicle. Also you can add the CA-27 Sabre since it is unique enough to justify adding it.
Could already be added thru Malaysia.
That is also true
