so, the budget has been presented, but no mention of new AShM heli in it or anything major. Mostly just mentions OpEx side of the budget, awaiting for the budget pdf to be drop soon to look in detail

I think the budget of this year will continued focus on the procurement of anti-air systems

that’s already known since it is in the long term plan starting last year and it’ll be 1 mid range battery per year, but we still didn’t know which land based mid range SAM to be chosen, last update I heard was a survey on their future locations to be based at.

There a rumors week ago that said it will be Turkey Hisar system as ASELSAN announce they got an order from a anonymous buyer and what the anonymous buyer brought is quite similar to what Malaysia had see and tested.

Seems like the voicelines is now on live patch

Personally, I have no expectation for them to be accurate and I expect them to maybe sound like FreeFire (a mobile game) voicelines, which they kinda did actually lol.

So in my opinion, they did not sound like what you might expect from a military personnel. Also, they trying to sound English when identifying enemy tanks (and actually uses English language for the Soviet T-series tanks). I might see the voicelines as kind of a meme potential within Indonesian playerbase.

Do you think the issue being they used non native speakers or did they not find enough information on certain callouts? So Gaijin did what they could do.

yeah its definitely AI

some words could use more refinements, but i think the most horrendous ones are the vehicle callouts

it sounds like this

video

like the flow is messed up, its not “T-SEVENTYTWO” or “LE-PARD” its “T-TUJUH-DUA (T-7-2)” & “LEO-PARD”

plus it doesnt even sound Indonesian, its just american

crossfire ahh ID voiceline
seriously even 2010s cashgrab F2P FPS game did better than this despite fully using Formal form of Indonesian and this is must be the worst voice line of all nation languages by Gaijin

to give a better example of Indonesian tanker operation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-WKCqJvZW8

To me they sounded like Indonesian TV commercial, they’re using formal language and accentless. Foreigners (usually) has an accent, and this doesn’t seems to be the case.

The only accent is when they do the callouts, as NFrost51 has mentioned they have English accent/pronounciation when calling out certain tanks instead of Indonesian pronounciation. To my knowledge, Gaijin outsourced the work to an Indonesian company, so they probably didn’t do much research.
