TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Indonesian Air Force will establish its third Operations Command [Koops 3] in East Indonesia. Air Force chief of staff Air Marshal Yuyu Sutisna said the eastern parts of the country were quite vast, thus the presence of another Koops was necessary.

“For now the command headquarters is set in Biak, where the infrastructure was quite adequate,” he said in Jakarta, Monday, April 9.

Yuyu said the new Koops was aimed at stepping up the Air Force’s abilities in securing the country’s air sovereignty and boosting its counter-attack power.

Yuyu said the presence of the new Koops would lead to better unity of command with the Navy and the Army during joint operations.

Yuyu said the planned establishment of the new Koops had been conveyed to Indonesian Military commander Air Marshal Hadi Tjahjanto. “The commander is looking into the plans, so the orders and decisions will come from the upper command,” Yuyu said.

Yuyu added the Koops would be completed with one squadron of fighter jets and another for transport aircraft as laid out in the Air Force’s strategic plans.
