JAKARTA: Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co. menjadi penawar unggulan untuk pembuatan tiga kapal selam yang dipesan oleh Kementerian Pertahanan Indonesia. Sumber di pemerintah Korea Selatan (Korsel) mengungkapkan kepada koran Chosun Ibo dan kemudian dikutip Bloomberg pagi ini menyatakan nilai kontrak pembuatan kapal selam tersebut sebesar US$1,08 miliar.
Dia mengungkapkan Ketua MPR Taufik Kiemas telah menyampaikan kepada PM Korea Selatan Kim Hwang Sik kalau Daewoo hampir dipastikan mendapatkan proyek ini. Taufik Kiemas berkunjung ke galangan kapal Daewoo di Okpo, Pulau Geoje pada Selasa.
Dalam tender pembuatan kapal selam, Daewoo bersaing dengan Jerman, Prancis, dan Rusia. Apabila Daewoo dipastikan memenangkan tender tersebut, bisa dipastikan merupakan ekspor senjata terbesar Korea Selatan.
Nilainya melampaui penjualan 16 pesawat jet latih tempur T-50 Golden Eagle ke Indonesia senilai US$400 juta. Nilai kontrak pengadaan kapal selam ini juga hampir setara dengan total ekspor senjata Korea Selatan pada tahun lalu yang mencapai US$1,19 miliar.
Indonesia juga menjalin kerja sama dengan Korsel untuk pengembangan jet tempur Korea Fighter Xperiment (KFX) yang diperkirakan anggaran US$8 miliar. Indonesia mendapat porsi anggaran US$1,6 miliar sehingga berhak atas 20% dari laba penjualan dan jatah 50 unit pesawat tempur tersebut.
Rencananya, pesawat tempur KFX didesain sebagai pesawat dengan kursi tunggal yang disokong mesin kembar setara kelas General Electric F414 atau Snecma M88 yang digunakan pada F/A-18E/F Boeing dan Dassault Rafale. Apabila pesawat tempur ini terwujud akan berganti nama menjadi pesawat F-33.Proyek ini ditargetkan rampung pada 2024. Ada tiga tahapan dalam proyek ini yaitu Technical and Development Phase yang akan dimulai akhir Juli 2011, lalu Engineering Development Phase.(mmh)

Seoul Poised to Export Submarines to Indonesia
21 Juli 2011
Indonesia will likely pick Korea as the preferred bidder for its submarine acquisition program, worth $1.08 billion, industrial sources said Thursday.
“France has been practically eliminated from the race,” an official of Korea's Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine (DSME) said, asking for anonymity.
He said once the deal is sealed, Korea's Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine will be selling three 1,400-ton submarines to the Southeast Asian country.
The official said the two other bidders, Germany and Russia, were pulled out of the race in March this year for failing to meet the Indonesian Navy’s requirements.
“From April, Indonesia only invited Korea and France to make presentations, automatically disqualifying Germany and Russia” he said.
Son Hyeong-yeong, spokesman of the state-run Defense Acquisition Program Administration, confirmed that Korea has offered to export three submarines to Indonesia.
“If Korea wins the bid, two of the submarines will be manufactured here, while the remaining one will be assembled in Indonesia with key components produced in Korea,” he said.
Son, however, denied the media report that Taufik Kiemas, the speaker of the Indonesian People's Consultative Assembly, told Prime Minister Kim Hwang-sik Wednesday that DSME is certain to win the project.
“None of the officials and the reporter present at the gathering between Kiemas and Kim heard submarines mentioned in the discussions,” he said.
Son noted that Korea has yet to receive any formal notification from Indonesia concerning its preferred bidder status.
Senior defense officials say the Indonesian and Korean governments are waiting to announce the result until Defense Minister Kim Kwan-jin pays a visit to Indonesia in September.
Korea and Indonesia have seen an increase in bilateral defense exchanges since the leaders of the two countries have made motions to jointly develop weapons and boost bilateral trade.
President Lee Myung-bak and his counterpart Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono agreed in December last year to seek joint development of weapons and defense technologies, including tanks, submarines and trainer jets.
In May, Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) signed a deal to export 16 T-50 jets worth $400 million to Indonesia. Korea's 10th biggest trade partner with their bilateral trade volume estimated at $22.9 billion in 2010.
