Relations Reset ~ II

The most significant takeaway of Prabowo's visit was Indonesia's interest in acquiring the BrahMos missile system from India. Both sides reached a broad understanding on the pricing of the deal, expected to be worth around $450 million. As a goodwill gesture, India briefed a top-level Indonesian team about the missile when it visited the BrahMos Aerospace headquarters and was briefed on its capabilities. If the deal goes ahead, Indonesia will become the second foreign buyer of the missile after the Philippines. In January 2022, India signed a deal worth almost $375 million to equip the Philippine Marines with three batteries of the missiles.
