Improved F-16 capability

Although the F-16 Block 52ID fleet is very new after being regenerated by the US Air Force, it does not prevent the Honeywell company from approaching the Government of Indonesia to offer an increase over the F-16.

Quoted from Jane's (7/2), Honeywell who attended the Singapore Airshow 2018 exhibition and later through the Vice President Director of Defense Sales in the Asia Pacific Team Van Luven reported that Honeywell offers ACADC system (Advanced Central Air Data Computer) whose main function is to read environmental data around the aircraft.

The ACADS system provides important parameter data for aircraft, including altitude and speed, more accurately. Other components offered are ECPDG or Enhanced Programmable Display Generator in the form of 4x4 inch screen designed to operate in difficult conditions. In essence, the bid of these two components will enable F-16 Block 52ID TNI AU to operate under all conditions, including displaying data clearly in bad weather conditions and dark nights, so that pilots must wear night vision as ANVIS
