JAKARTA-(IDB) : Lockheed Martin is aiming to increase its defence market share in
Indonesia by securing deals to upgrade the country's F-16A/B fighter
aircraft and supply long-range surveillance radars.
The
US-headquartered company said it is proposing to undertake the
programmes in collaboration with Indonesian firms PT Dirgantara and PT
CMI Teknologi (CMI) as a mark of its commitment to engage with the local
defence industry, said James Gribbon, Asia-Pacific regional president
for Lockheed Martin at the Indo Defence Expo & Forum.
Both
the potential F-16A/B programme and the requirement to acquire
long-range surveillance radars are likely to be announced by the
Indonesian government by the end of 2012 or 2013. Should Lockheed Martin
secure the deals, it will significantly expand the company's
relationship with Indonesia.
The company secured earlier this
year a USD750 million contract from the US government to refurbish
surplus US Air Force F-16C/D fighter aircraft for Indonesia, although
this programme is being undertaken in the United States with limited
collaboration with Indonesian industry.

HapusJF 17 promesinya sih lebih baik, tp itu cuman promosi, radar Aesa Amerika itu terbukti lebih handal dibanding buatan China, ini terbukti Pakistan sendiri thn 2010 meminta untuk menambah F - 16 C/D block 52 padahal thn 2006 Pakistan sudah memiliki JF-17...nah kenapa dia justru memilih menambah F-16 C/D bukannya JF-17 kalo memang radarnya lebih baik dibanding JF-17??? Kemudian pesawat tempur F-16 sudah Combat Proven dibandingkan JF-17
