Indonesia Included in Major F-15 Procurement and Support Framework
The US Department of Defense has formally included Indonesia in a major F-15 procurement and support framework, potentially paving the way for Jakarta to acquire the fighter jet and supporting infrastructure. The contract, worth up to $131.23 billion, covers aircraft manufacturing, systems integration, and long-term support through 2037. Indonesia’s inclusion provides a formal US government framework for a potential F-15 purchase, despite previous reports that Boeing had stepped back from efforts to supply F-15EX aircraft. This development was first reported by Indonesia Business Post.
