Indon planes got no rockets lah !!!
======================================================
The Indonesian Defense MinistryÂ’s director-general for the planning of defense systems, Mas Widjaja, had earlier sent a letter to the House of Representatives (DPR) Commission I on defense matters.
In the letter, he requested a Rp8 trillion budget to purchase a squadron of Sukhoi fighter planes and 24 Russian helicopters.
According to Sutarto, the TNI urgently needs the helicopters as they can be used in many situations, including a war condition and the handling of disasters.
However, the parliament member showed a negative response to the TNI request.
DPR Commission I Chairman Theo L. Sambuaga said that the DPR Commission would likely decline the request by reason that the additional budget should be used to facilitate four Sukhoi fighter planes bought by Indonesia that are as yet unarmed. (Dimas Adityo/Ecep S Yasa-Tempo News Room).
