IndoDefence 2025: Indonesia develops Bramara Kamikaze drone to strike targets without calling artillery or air support
- 12 Jun, 2025 - 7:53
During the IndoDefense 2025 defense exhibition, the Indonesian company Republik Defence presented a compact multirotor loitering munition named Bramara Kamikaze. It is designed for precision strike missions and fits into a standard backpack, emphasizing portability for tactical ground operations. The drone belongs to a class of lightweight loitering munitions intended to provide strike capability to units without access to heavier platforms. Its configuration allows it to be used in environments where mobility and rapid deployment are operational priorities, including urban, forested, and frontline conditions.
The Bramara Kamikaze's top speed of 33 meters per second (approximately 119 kilometers per hour) allows it to engage targets quickly after acquisition, limiting the time available for adversaries to react or relocate. (Picture source: Army Recognition)
The Bramara Kamikaze was introduced during a public presentation in 2023 alongside the larger Konta drone, during which Indonesia’s then defense minister and now President Prabowo Subianto stated that the country “needs lots of kamikaze drones.”
This declaration indicated institutional support for expanding loitering munition production and reflected alignment with global trends, such as those observed in Ukraine, where similar drones have been employed for tactical purposes.
The Bramara Kamikaze drone carries a 400-gram warhead integrated directly into its fuselage. This payload classifies the drone as a light tactical munition suitable for targeting exposed personnel, unarmored vehicles, and basic fixed positions with limited structural protection. Its maximum operational radius is 2.5 kilometers, positioning it for short-range missions where high accuracy and fast target engagement are critical.
The system is designed to deliver consistent precision within this range, serving ground forces requiring independent strike capacity without support from artillery or air-delivered munitions. The warhead’s limited size is consistent with the drone’s compact structure and intended use cases in densely populated or constrained battlefield zones, where minimizing collateral effects is often a requirement.
The Bramara Kamikaze is propelled by an electric motor system connected to multiple rotors, enabling vertical takeoff and landing and supporting operation in confined or improvised spaces. Its top speed is 33 meters per second, or approximately 119 kilometers per hour. This allows it to engage targets quickly after acquisition, limiting the time available for adversaries to react or relocate.
The electric propulsion contributes to a reduced acoustic and thermal signature, which can lower detection risk. The system is not designed for retrieval, being intended for single-use missions. The configuration supports simple operational procedures and allows deployment by dismounted personnel in remote or forward areas. The electric system also reduces maintenance complexity compared to fuel-powered platforms, enabling easier use in low-resource environments.
Launch is performed using ground-based methods without dedicated rails or launchers, allowing the drone to be employed from various terrain types. This facilitates rapid deployment in austere conditions and supports operations where conventional infrastructure is unavailable. The system is configured for ease of use and aims to minimize technical requirements for the operator. The design supports autonomous employment by mobile ground units and is suitable for users who require low-logistics systems. The absence of additional launch equipment increases tactical flexibility and is compatible with scenarios where deployment must be improvised. These characteristics indicate a focus on straightforward field integration rather than reliance on vehicle-based or centralized launch platforms.
Targeting is enabled by a guidance system providing location accuracy within ten meters. This precision is intended to support terminal strikes on specific targets while reducing the risk of off-target effects. The drone also features a safety fuse designed to prevent unintentional detonation during handling or transport.
The fuse ensures that the warhead activates only upon reaching the target or during final engagement, contributing to operational safety and reducing accidental risks. These features are incorporated to maintain controlled activation and to meet safety standards necessary for use in operational environments where personnel may handle multiple drones or operate in close quarters. Both features are designed to support predictable and effective mission performance.
The Bramara is one of several loitering munitions currently being developed in Indonesia. The state-owned company PT DAHANA has previously introduced the Rajata, which was tested in 2021 and is described as a low-cost drone with ongoing efforts to integrate an abort mechanism. PT Pindad’s Minibe, later adapted into a swarm-capable UAV by startup BETA UAS, was also presented at Indo Defence 2022. In 2025, PAL Indonesia exhibited a shoulder-fired laser weapon intended to disrupt small drones at ranges between 50 and 400 meters. These developments are taking place as part of a broader defense modernization strategy that includes UAV programs such as LAPAN LSU-02/03 and local production of Anka drones through cooperation with the Turkish company Baykar.
Indonesia is also considering the acquisition of additional Bayraktar models and Chinese CH-4 variants. The government is restructuring the defense sector under the DEFEND ID holding, integrating entities such as DAHANA, Pindad, Len, PAL, and Indonesian Aerospace.
However, recent assessments indicate that operator training, inter-branch integration, and consistent doctrinal application remain challenges, despite the 2024 introduction of a tactical datalink system. Analysts note that the successful expansion of drone capabilities depends on resolving these issues within the constraints of a defense budget that remains below one percent of GDP.

Strategic Step, Naval Group Partners with 2 SOE's and 5 Private Sector companies to Supply Advanced Scorpene Submarine Components Built at PAL Indonesia
13/06/2025
EVP, Sales and Marketing Naval Group Madam Marie Laure Bourgeois and President Director of PT TTS Budhiarto Sulaiman took a photo together after signing the MoU. Appearing to accompany the Director of Tekindhan Kemhan Marsma TNI Dedy Laksmono and Ilham Akbar Habibie
JAKARTA-MARITIM: The 2024 Indo Defense Exhibition and Forum was opened by President Prabowo Subianto, at JIExpo, Kemayoran, Jakarta, Wednesday (11/6). One of the exhibitors that received a lot of attention was the presence of the Naval Group company, the manufacturer of the Scorpene submarine, which is headquartered in France.
Why? Because with this Naval Group collaboration, a new milestone has been created for the independence and progress of the domestic ship component industry in the future. That has been inscribed in gold ink on the second day of the 2024 Indo Defense Exhibition and Forum, the signing of the MoU document for the construction of two advanced Scorpene submarines, which are also planned to be worked on at the PT PAL Indonesia shipyard.
Witnessed by the Director of Defense Industry Technology (Tekindhanan) of the Ministry of Defense (Kemhan), First Marshal TNI Dedy Laksmono, the signing of the MoU was carried out between the Naval Group company and two State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) and five Private Enterprises (BUMS), Thursday (12/6). The two BUMNs are PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI) and PT Barata Indonesia. While the five BUMS are PT Teknik Tadakara Sumberkarya (TTS), PT PCM Kabel Indonesia, PT Infoglobal Teknologi Semesta (Infoglobal), PT Hariff Dipa Persada (Hariff Defense) and PT Santoso Teknindo.
Meanwhile, the signing of the MoU was carried out by the Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing Naval Group, Madam Marie Laure Bourgeois, President Director of PT TTS, Budhiarto Sulaiman and President Director of PT PCM Kabel Indonesia, Michael Sutandar ST MBA together with the leaders of two other BUMN and three BUMS.
It can be said that later the two BUMN and five BUMS will play a role in their respective fields in the construction of two Scorpene submarines which are planned to begin construction in 2025 also at PT PAL Indonesia.
The Infoglobal company will later become a supply chain for avionic components, especially in the combat management system (CMS), sophisticated software designed to integrate systems on warships and submarines. PT Hariff Dipa Persada will also be involved in the defense system and PT PCM Kabel Indonesia will participate in the marine cable. PT Santoso Teknindo will be involved in precision machining and PT TTS will participate in electrical support. While PT DI and PT Barata Indonesia will be involved in the system integrator and heavy industry.
Trust
When met on the sidelines of the 2024 Indo Defense Exhibition and Forum, Budhiarto said that the signing of this MoU was a form of full trust from the Naval Group company in the capabilities and quality of ship components produced by domestic companies.
"This MoU must be followed up immediately so that it can be realized. This is an opportunity to prove that we are capable and on par and in the future we will no longer need to import ship components from abroad," said Budhiarto.
Meanwhile, according to the President Director of PT PCM Kabel Indonesia, Michael Sutandar, the trust given by this large and strong company from France is a source of pride. Considering that it is not easy and simple for a top foreign company to simply give trust and opportunities to companies in Indonesia."
The Scorpene submarine ordered by the TNI-AL is indeed mandated by the Ministry of Defense to involve and use domestic ship components. If indeed the Domestic Component Level (TKDN) already exists according to the provisions," explained Michael.
PCM is one of the companies that specializes in producing ship cables. Until now, the marine cable owned has pocketed 80% TKDN.
So far, the ship cables produced by PCM are types of instrumentation cables, control cables, power cables, marine cables and telecommunication cables.
Budhiarto added, the Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin) has so far encouraged us a lot from the coaching aspect, so that our products can compete in the global market.
Meanwhile, EVP, Sales and Marketing Naval Group, Madam Marie Laure Bourgeois, hopes that the ship component industries in Indonesia can continue to participate in the manufacture of this Scorpene submarine, including also participating in other projects in the world.
"Naval Group will include companies in Indonesia to enter its network and system. So Naval no longer needs to invest in various countries to meet the needs of its ship components. If I need electrical support, I just click on PT TTS and likewise for marine cables, I just click on PCM," said Madam Marie, who called Budhiarto Sulaiman the 'King of Switchboard', because he has 35 years of experience in his field.
It was explained that before the MoU, Naval Group had indeed visited PT TTS and PCM and they had also conducted due diligence. It is estimated that the construction of this submarine will take up to six years.

Fatahillah and Malahayati Class Warships will be Strengthened by PT PAL CMS
Saturday, June 14, 2025 | 18:00 WIB
Combat Management System. (CMS) developed by PT PAL Indonesia and exhibited at Indo Defence 2024 Expo & Forum (IDM/Aini Tartini)
Jakarta, IDM – Combat Management System (CMS) developed by PT PAL Indonesia is planned to be installed on Fatahillah and Malahayati-class warships, to improve the combat capability of the corpt.
Developed since 2022, CMS is a system that integrates sensors to weaponry in a warship. Then, this system provides a thorough view of tactical situations and helps decision-making.

"CMS calculates all sensors and will provide input to the commander to use which weapons are most effective against the threat at the time," said Endujud Darojat as General Manager of the Sewaco Division of PT PAL, in an interview on the sidelines of the Indo Defence 2024 Expo & Forum exhibition in Jakarta, Saturday (14/6).
He said, CMS is like the heart when it is war on a ship. Thus, it is very important for Indonesia to develop the system as well as an effort to encourage the independence of the defense industry.
After being developed for more than three years, the system is believed to meet the Domestic Component Level (TKDN) of more than 50 percent. The plan, starting in 2026 this system will strengthen five Fast Patrol Boat (KCR) class Fast Patrol Boat (FPB) 57 and Malayati warships.
“The plan, God willing, next year 2026 we will have started with a fast ship of missiles. Well, including yesterday we have surveyed for Fatahillah and Malahayati," he added. (bp)

Indo Defence 2025: PT PAL breaks cover on indigenously developed combat management system
A mock-up of the CMS developed by PT PAL, which is shown for the first time at Indo Defence 2025.
By Ridzwan Rahmat |
13 June 2025
Indonesian shipbuilder PT PAL has unveiled a new naval combat management system (CMS) that it has been developing for the last three years.
The system, which will be formally named by the country's President Prabowo Subianto at a later date, was unveiled at the Indo Defence 2025 exhibition in Jakarta.
Speaking to Janes at the event, the general manager of PT PAL's SEWACO (sensor, weapon, and command) Division, Enjud Darojat, said the CMS was developed in-house by its engineers and software developers, in response to a suggestion issued by Prabowo.
“Unlike CMS systems developed by other Indonesian companies that have been done in collaboration with foreign contractors, the CMS built by PT PAL is developed fully in-house and we own the source code,” said Enjud in response to questions from Janes .
“As such we have full control over what the CMS can do now and in the future,” he said, adding that while PT PAL received help from external advisers for the development, the company maintains full ownership and control over the source code and can develop it according to a customer's requirements.
He stopped short of revealing who these external advisers are but added that the CMS is designed to be fully agnostic and can work with sensors and weapon systems from any suppliers.
Depending on the sensors deployed, the CMS can track multiple targets simultaneously and has been designed to incorporate artificial intelligence (AI)-based systems that can automatically classify the targets detected.

Indo Defence 2025: Indonesia introduces locally developed light tank
A mock-up of the P8 light tank on display at Indo Defence 2025.
By Ridzwan Rahmat |
16 June 2025
Jakarta-based PT Sentra Surya Ekajaya (PT SSE) has unveiled the mock-up of a locally developed amphibious light tank, which it is positioning for the Indonesian Army's armoured reconnaissance requirements.
It is known as the P8 light tank and it has been under development over the last two years, said Wahyu Rahmat Hidayat, a PT SSE engineer who spoke to Janes at the Indo Defence 2025 exhibition where the mock-up was unveiled.
In the interview, Wahyu described the P8 as one that has been designed fully by Indonesian engineers, and the tank has been conceived specifically for tropical operating conditions.
A major feature of the P8 is manoeuvrability and deployability, said Wahyu. The vehicle weighs just 12 tonnes, and this makes it more capable of crossing the muddy terrains and rivers associated with the Southeast Asian landscape.
Its weight and dimensions also make it suitable to be transported by aircraft that are in service with the Indonesian Air Force, such as the C-130.
