The Indonesian Army

TNI-AD photo on both Apache (8 pc) and Hind (6pc) with anti tank missile. Mi-35 population in Indonesia is being calculate between 5-7, however personally I believe 6 delivered in two batches of 3 each.

Video from US Army on exercise Super Garuda Shield. Exercise that begin decades ago between US and Indonesia, now already enlarge to 13 other participants. Mostly in the region. The video put quite time on MLRS exercise with US Himars and TNI Astros II (Army) and Vampire (Marines).

Wrong Hind photo though, Indonesian army operate the P variant, with twin Gsh-30-2 30mm on the side of the cockpit, not the chin mounted Yak-B 12,7mm shown on the photo above.

Prototype of local build MLRS using local build 122mm rocket (RHan). Will see if this going to be stay on Prototype stage, or move to production. However compared to previous local MLRS proto, this one seems more serious build.

Using KAMAZ truck as base, it is also quite shown typical Russia-East Euro MLRS similarities.

Looks like a KamAZ 63501, a highly capable 8×8 with a 16.000 kg payload and a 11.760 cc V8 engine.

It is remarkable that they didn't bought the Tatra 815 (which is also used for the RM-70), to make logistics, training and maintenance easier. Maybe the KamAZ is cheaper, or the Korps Marinir already had some unused ones on stock.

Perhaps because KAMAZ actually has better presences in Indonesia commercial market then Tatra. This means their supply chain support supposedly provide better network then Tatra.
