Secretly, the Indonesian military is strengthening its capacity in all dimensions.
Two days ago, the Army received eight AH-64E Apache helicopters made by Boeing, USA. Yesterday, a South Korean-made submarine named KRI Ardadedali-404 arrived at the Surabaya dock and officially strengthened the Navy. On March 1, the Russian news agency TASS reported that the Air Force is interested in buying 10 multi-role Sukhoi-35 fighter jets to replace the aging F-5 Tiger and served since 1980.
Boeing, who signed an Apache production contract for Indonesia in 2015 or in the era of President Joko Widodo, apparently smelled a great opportunity and in his own way tried to seduce the government to increase its fleet.
"Boeing congratulates the Army for the receipt of eight AH-64 Apache and is honored to support its many missions.AH64 Apache is the world's most advanced multi-role helicopter operated by the American Army and other nations," Boeing said in the account Twitter.
