France, US Woo Indonesia With Defense Sales 10.2.2022
The competition between the United States and France for Indo-Pacific allies heated up on Thursday as both nations wooed Indonesia with fighter-jet sales, as Southeast Asia’s leading power looks to modernize its military arsenal.
Meanwhile late on Thursday, the State Department approved the possible sale of F-15ID aircraft and equipment to Jakarta in a potential U.S. $13.9 billion deal, the Pentagon’s Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) announced in a statement. The agency said Indonesia had requested to buy 36 such aircraft.
Indonesia also signed a preliminary agreement for joint production and assembly of French Scorpene submarines, five months after Australia infuriated Paris by canceling a large submarine deal upon joining a U.S.-U.K. security agreement.
