What's new

S. Korea signs contract to export 3 submarines to Indonesia

Good news. Indonesia has a huge coast line and should be well armed to defend it and the waters around it. As the Indonesian economy increases, Indonesia should increase it's military capabilities accordingly to ensure they're the biggest military power in the region (sans China).
 
That's good. Indonesia has good aviation industry as well RAI and I remember I watched a documentary about a made in Indonesia submarine.

Indonesia made first attempt to build submarine during revolution war in 1948. Our DoD commissioned two engineers from navy to build it. A mini sub prototype was made. Unfortunately, Dutch forces seized it in a raid. Only one photo remains.

If only we keep continuing after the war, we would have possess advanced submarine building capability by now. But, better late than never. :-)

The thread is about submarines ... these are the machines intended for submersible tasks.
Good to see, you know a thing or two about subs too :tup:

South Korea has come a long way since 1948 against the ship building giants of the world, it has made its name against Japan, USA, Russia, China, an admirable feat indeed. The thread is about submarines surely, and subs are built in relation with ship building industry.

Korean history of ship building is much longer than 1948. And I know a thing or two about it as well so let's learn.
They have been building boats & ships for centuries... when Japan used to be a mil. power, it attacked Korea and captured it but later Koreans defeated Japan in naval battle through a cleverly designed ship called "turtle ship" which was totally & unique design at that time. And Koreans outsmarted Japanese despite being a smaller force.
 
Good for Pakistan, I think China surpassed ROK in 2018 although ROK kept its ranking up for a very long time.
?????????????????
Brother, are you serious?
