Indonesia's Type 31 with Turkish combat systems

What does the panel think of Indonesia fitting Turkish systems to a Type 31-based frigate?

The systems are judged viable for Indonesia, with a preference for more mature Western equipment at the time of the discussion. Contract structure, support experience, and operation in high humidity remain concerns.

Turkish weapons and sensors are judged potentially adequate for Indonesia's requirements, while the industry is described as still developing its experience. The preference for established Western equipment rests on maturity in the systems and in the organizations that test and support them. Turkey's investment and promising ideas do not remove that distinction in the assessment. Service and maintenance contracts are identified as a possible source of problems already being experienced by Indonesia, with the claim presented tentatively. The discussion then stresses the difficulty of supporting equipment in a client's environment, including Indonesia's humidity.
