Indonesian Air Force (TNI-AU) - News and Updates

It has demonstrated AAM firing capability, that's quite enough. Being a low observable design helps.
Low observable with AAM under the wings ?
Interesting development. Sooner rather than later , the Indonesians would want to integrate this UCAV to the Rafales I'd expect.

Given the excellent fraternal relations between le Francais & the converted Greeks since the Crimean War , should be a piece of cake. Isn't it ? @Bon Plan ; @Picdelamirand-oil
Given the very good relations betweend France and Turkey, it's not tomorrow that we will see a turkish UCAV flying under a Rafale supervision !!!

Specially when France is working on a really stealth UCAV for Rafale F5 (Kizilelma is not fully stealth).

It is externally mounted, and no one has yet operationally or doctrinally implemented it. How can one evaluate its cost-effectiveness without it?. Even the Turkish Air Force has committed to it.

I feel that some kickback is involved. Remember, unlike in other EU countries, there are no restrictions for Erdogan and his family in this regard.
