Indonesia bought $400M worth of attack helicopters last week - while we delivered $320M in aid
Sunday, 20 May 2018
Boeing sells the Apache AH 64E for about $48M AUD.
This week Indonesia took delivery of 8 of them - not far shy of $400M in one order.
It's a bit galling to know that Australia will send Indonesia about $320M in foreign aid this year - the US gives about half that amount.
But Boeing executives are popping the champagne corks, Indonesia's TNI is thrilled, the US embassy people couldn't be happier - and poor old Australian taxpayers are left shaking their heads.
