US Planemaker Shelves Fighter Jet Sale Amid Lack of Indonesian Interest
Boeing is abandoning plans to sell its F-15EX fighter jet to Indonesia, a deal that was announced years ago but never materialized due to lack of formalization. The State Department cleared the sale in 2022, but Boeing appears to be ditching the campaign. This decision may signal a change in Indonesia’s defense priorities or a shift towards other defense products. Breaking Defense reports that despite this collapse, company officials believe the F-15EX will continue to have a bright future in the region.
