When in 1974 the Government of Indonesia decided to boost the development of the aircraft industry as part of its national development program, a strategy for industrial transformation was progressively formulated. Indonesia's general policy for national development is focused on the three main goals of increasing basic capital, utilizing resources optimally for self reliance, and applying science and technology in conformity with demand and priority. The establishment of the presently known PT. Dirgantara Indonesia marked the initiation of the strategy for industrial transformation. This strategy, reformulated in the inaugural address of the author as an Honorary Fellow at The German Aeronautical Society, DGLR in 1978, in essence is aimed to develop the technological capability of Indonesia as a backbone for its national development appropriate to its socio-cultural setting in the modern word by starting from the end product and ending with its generic elements.
The ultimate objective of the industrial transformation strategy is transforming the nation from an agriculturally based society into and industrial based society, and additionally, for PT. Dirgantara Indonesia, to achieve world wide recognition as a viable aircraft manufacturing company.
The strategy for industrial transformation has been formulated in four strategic phases. This phases begins with the efforts to master skills necessary to manufacture and assemble an aircraft at its final stage of its production process that is from the sub to final assembly. The phase ends up with the effort to acquire basic science which form the back bone of the technology for aerospace industry.
Phase One : Technology Acquisition through the transfer of existing technology to achieve an added value process, capitalizing on the acquisition of manufacturing capability of advanced technology product already in the market. The aim of this phase is to attain and develop skill and technological ability with regards to the technical aspects and the production of advanced products which have already been developed by advanced industrial countries. This phase has been successfully carried out at PT. Dirgantara Indonesia since 1976. The results are among others : Licensed program for fixed wing aircraft such as NC-212; Rotary wing aircraft such as NBO-105, Super Puma NAS-332, Nbell-412 and weapon system such as SUT torpedo and FFAR missiles.
The first phase since then, continued to advanced aerospace component production. The results are among other, Component subcontract program from : Boeing for Boeing 737 and 767, General Dynamics for F-16 A/B, British Aerospace for Rapier, Fokker for Fokker-100, Hughes for Commercial Satellite HS-601 for Palapa C.
Phase Two : Integration of acquired and existing technology into the design and production of completely new products to be introduced in the international market. This second phase emphasized the ability to design particularly the ability to integrate and optimize the design of components for a new system. The capability to test and certify newly designed products is also developed in this stage.
CN-235 joint design production between PT.Dirgantara Indonesia (formerly IPTN) of Indonesia and CASA of Spain can be shown as a living example of this phase. This second phase since then, continued to the development of our own version of CN-235, such as CN-235-MIL equipped with advanced cockpit compatible with NVG (Night Vision Goggle) for tactical night flying capability, CN-235-MPA with integrated mission avionics and FLIR (Forward Looking Infra Red); modified NBO-105 with digital cockpit and EFIS (Electronic Flight Instrumentation System).
Phase Three : Development of existing and new technology into the design and production of completely new products to be introduced in the international market. During this third phase, innovations will be introduced, and new technologies are created to produce the latest and most modern products based on market needs.
At PT. Dirgantara Indonesia this phase is realized by a new subsonic commuter aircraft development program the N250. Which is plan to roll out on November 1994 and first flight expected at the first quarter of 1995. The third phase will be followed by a family of improved and modified N250 series and a newly design transonic commuter aircraft program, the N2130. All of these product will utilize the most state of the art aerospace technology.
Phase Four : Acquisition of large scale basic research capability and the implementation of basic research as a key element in the introduction of competitive generic technologies. The aerospace industry, PT. Dirgantara Indonesia is the spearhead of other strategic industries, its program can be expected to spin-off to non aerospace program such as land and ship industries.
