Len-Leonardo Radar Collaboration Ready to Strengthen Indonesian Alutsista
This article from West Java provicial sites put information on Leonardo and LEN collaboration for 3D Radar.
This agreement, initially put LEN in charge of maintenance, supporting infrastructure and some local components. However for next stages it will be for domestic (in LEN facilities) fabrication.
Yes, I believe with this Leonardo manage to clinch the deal from competitors like Thales or Raytheon.
LEN already build it's own 2D ground interception radar, however I do believe TNI-AU wants to standardise it's Radar infrastructure to 3D radars.
Just my own speculation, few years back I read in local media how LEN involve with maintenance and capabilities upgrade on old Thales 2D radar installed in Van Speijk/Ahmad Yani Frigates..perhaps from there they begin to build their own version of 2D radars.
