![]() "Indonesia is interested in designing a new light tank. Russian tank designers are participating in the International Defense Exhibition in Jakarta. On November 12, 2012, Russian arms exporter Rosoboronexport said Russia was ready to assist Indonesia in designing a new tank. ![]() "In addition, the PT Pindad will revitalize the medium tank at an estimated price of Rp 35 billion per unit." This makes it clear that the AMX-13 has been modified by Pindad. "The PT Pindad retrofit program will also run AMX-13 tanks on wheels to increase the chain of maneuverability, attack power, optical capabilities and communications," he added. The 20mm IFV could be a variant of the Korean K-21. Tri Hardjono, director of manufacturing products, said in 2012: "PT Pindad will develop the Panzer Anoa 6圆, which includes cavalry fighting vehicles (equipped with 90 mm guns) and infantry fighting vehicles (20 mm guns)." This sentence can be interpreted as Pindad will make Panzer Tarantula/Black Fox with Canon 90mm CSE Belgium. The planned Pindad tank was powered at 500 hp and weighed about 28-30 tons. Medium tanks will be equipped with anti-tank missiles or 105 mm guns. In April 2013, the company announced a plan to build light/medium tanks based on the Alvis Scorpion CRV and Rheinmettal Marder IFV. However, there are multiple ideas about what kind of medium tanks Pindad might make. It has been repeatedly reported that the PT Pindad will build a medium tank to meet the needs of the military. PT Pindad has embarked on the design of indigenous light/medium tanks for the Indonesian Army TNI-AD.
