Indonesia has dropped its plan to co-produce the KF-21 Boramae and will buy finished aircraft from South Korea instead. The move ends the proposed Bandung final assembly line and closes the industrial role Jakarta sought in the fighter’s development phase, leaving Korea Aerospace Industries with a cleaner export case and Indonesia as a straight customer. Officials have already framed the change as a shift from joint production to direct procurement, after Indonesia settled its financial obligations under the revised partnership. For PT Dirgantara Indonesia and the wider Bandung aerospace cluster, the decision removes expected workshare, technology transfer, and long-term sustainment leverage.
