The Indonesian Navy's (Tentera Nasional Indonesia - Angkatan Laut: TNI-AL's) plans to operate a fleet of 12 submarines by 2024 may include a number of midget boats, said Commodore Muhammad Ali, commander of the service's maritime security task force, on 17 January.

The commodore was speaking at the UDT Asia 2017 undersea defence conference in Singapore, during which he gave an update on the TNI-AL's modernisation efforts, including its anti-submarine warfare (ASW) capabilities.

Indonesia currently operates a fleet of two Cakra (Type 209/1300)-class diesel-electric submarines (SSKs), and is currently anticipating the delivery of three DSME Type 209/1400 boats from South Korea.

  1. Besides the Project 133s and those two torpedo boats, what other ASW assets do we have? The SIGMAs haven't got their ASW helicopters yet.

      Kalo platform spesialis asw, sebenarnya dari jaman dulu kita punya korvet fatahillah class yang lebih trengginas dibanding parchim.

      Utk ukuran korvet asw, kapal ini dilengkapi roket bofors 120mm sbg roket saturasi, sonar, torpedo, rudal otomat bahkan (PKR&sigmapun belum punya) dilengkapi towed decoy yang bisa mengecoh torpedo yang mengejar kapal ini.

      Bahkan sekarang kapalnya diupgrade dg teknologi spanyol utk cms dan esmnya, radar buataan therma dan upgrade personaran oleh ultra/UK
