it seems to only be a loan of airframe+pilot, ergo it wont be a proper part of the Air Force

would be nice to put it in but not tangible enough unfortunately

Alright I just found a post by ESS’ CEO from last year, so the MiG-29s would be operated by “Griffon Aggressors”, a subsidiary of ESS, and they would be “entirely overhauled by PT E-System Solutions MRO team based in Indonesia” (I wonder at which airport).

The MiGs would “going through a complete overhaul and upgrade modification program involving EW, IRST, and AESA radar”. The MiGs would carry DELTA Q-EW Light Multi Purpose Cruise Missile, used for “Unmanned Aggressor EW” training against the newly arrived Rafales.

Another important bit is the MiGs is planned to achieve initial operational capability (IOC) status in Q1 2026, so we will see it in the next few months.

Gaijin does not really like aggressor squadrons because there a little strange and I doubt they can fight maybe only as bait.

Exactly, I don’t think they belong in the list, although I have to mention it just in case some people misunderstood that the MiG-29 would be operated by Indonesian Air Force

There are only a few aggressor units that could be added. This is sadly not one of them. The USA has some that are fully armed but there planes that are modified to fight like Russian or Chinese planes but they are not. The IAI Kfir in USA service may be an example as some say they could be armed others say they could not.

indonesia cancelled the f15s

It had been removed from the list since January earlier this year
