Indonesia: Rafale mejoran el Link PT Len

Gracias al sistema "Offset" del Rafale, la capacidad de enlace de PT Len aumenta, ya que puede conectarse con otros aviones de combate de la Fuerza Aérea de Indonesia.

Yakarta, IDM – Las capacidades de interoperabilidad de PT Len Industri (Persero) han aumentado gracias a la adquisición de 42 aviones de combate Rafale a Dassault Aviation, Francia.

La interoperabilidad es la capacidad de diferentes sistemas, dispositivos o aplicaciones para comunicarse, intercambiar datos y utilizar esa información en el ámbito militar.

Anteriormente, las capacidades de enlace del PT Len se centraban únicamente en la comunicación entre buques de guerra y aeronaves de vigilancia o patrulla.

Posteriormente, la interoperabilidad Link ID de PT Len podrá conectarse a las comunicaciones entre los aviones de combate de la Fuerza Aérea de Indonesia.

"Anteriormente, las capacidades de Link ID del Len se centraban en las comunicaciones entre buques de guerra y aeronaves de vigilancia. En el futuro, estas capacidades se ampliarán para dar soporte a las comunicaciones de enlace de datos entre aviones de combate, fortaleciendo así la integración del sistema nacional de defensa aérea de forma más integral", según un comunicado de prensa del PT Len, citado el miércoles 20 de mayo.

Este aumento de la interoperabilidad forma parte del programa de entrenamiento complementario para el avión de combate Rafale.

La compensación industrial es una obligación para los fabricantes de armas extranjeros, en este caso Dassault Aviation, de proporcionar una compensación o inversiones recíprocas, como la transferencia de tecnología, la producción local de piezas de repuesto o la capacitación del personal, al país comprador.

"Este impulso también subraya el papel estratégico de PT Len Industri (Persero) como empresa matriz de la industria de defensa DEFEND ID en la promoción de la independencia de la industria de defensa nacional a través del dominio de la tecnología y el fortalecimiento de la interoperabilidad entre los sistemas de defensa", dijo el presidente director de PT Len Industri (Persero), Joga Dharma Setiawan, en su declaración.

Squadron 11th, Makassar - LEN with PT. INDO AERO INDUSTRI invited OJSC “AGAT” to conduct tests and simulate the function of the TDL system in integrating the communication system between the Air Force SU-30 aircraft, the Air Force early warning aircraft and the ground command.

This aims to improve the ability of the Indonesian Air Force to conduct air operations both in defense and attack situations.


Visit to OJSC “AGAT” HQ

As report before, PT. INDO AERO INDUSTRIA invited the Deputy Commander of the Air Force and the Air Force team to visit the OJSC headquarters "AGAT" to see the products.

And the main objective is to look on the Tactical Data Link system for Sukhoi aircraft demonstrated by the OJSC “AGAT” team

L-3 Link Delivers F/A-18D Tactical Operational Flight Trainer to RMAF

ARLINGTON, Texas - L-3 Link Simulation & Training (L-3 Link) has delivered an F/A-18D Tactical Operational Flight Trainer (TOFT) to the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) in Butterworth, Malaysia.

The F/A-18D TOFT networks two cockpits, one for the pilot and the other for the weapons system officer. The TOFT will enable RMAF aircrews to train across the platform’s full mission spectrum.
“The F/A-18D Tactical Operational Flight Trainer delivered to the Royal Malaysian Air Force will provide a significant increase in training capability,” says Frank Casano, L-3 Link’s vice president of strategic development. “This enhanced level of training will enable aircrews to prepare for the full range of force multiplier capabilities that the F/A-18D can support during rapidly changing battle scenarios.”

By combining four advanced L-3 Link technologies – high-definition databases, image generation systems, physics-based processing, and SimuSphere HD-9 visual displays – the F/A-18D trainer provides the aircrew with realistic day and night out-the-window scenarios, in addition to supporting each cockpit with a high-fidelity sensors environment.

During night operations training, aircrews will be able to use their own actual flight night vision goggles, while accurately viewing stimulated effects that include halos, light blooms, and weapon launches and detonations. As part of this RMAF training solution, L-3 Link is also delivering a brief/debrief system and an instructor/operator station.
