It was activated in three tranches: an initial six jets that came into force in September 2022, a second batch of 18 in August 2023, and the final 18 confirmed in January 2024. Dassault Aviation, the manufacturer, marked that last milestone with a statement from its chief.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px\"><img data-opt-id=452522773  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/06\/dassault-rafale-f4-flight-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Dassault Rafale in flight\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">The Rafale F4 is the latest standard of Dassault&rsquo;s twin-engine multirole fighter; Indonesia&rsquo;s order is for 42.

They are intended to kickstart the training pipeline for Indonesian Rafale crews and build up operational conversion for air force pilots &mdash; a process that has already seen Indonesian aircrew sent to France to learn the type. Dassault has also handed over supporting infrastructure, including a dedicated simulation and training centre, so Indonesia can stand up the fleet rather than simply park it.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TyvkeB7rfQE\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;border-radius:8px\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;font-style:italic;margin-top:-8px\">Indonesia receives its first Rafale fighters from France. (Video: Arab News)<\/p>\n<p>Based in Sumatra, the Rafales are positioned in the strategically sensitive west of the archipelago, near the approaches to the Strait of Malacca &mdash; one of the world's busiest maritime chokepoints. More aircraft are expected to follow in rotations through the rest of the decade until all 42 are in Indonesian hands.<\/p>\n\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">A fleet of many flags<\/h2>\n<p>The Rafale is the centrepiece, but Indonesia's fighter story has long been a tangle of competing ambitions. Jakarta has built a genuinely mixed inventory &mdash; American F-16s alongside Russian Su-27s and Su-30s &mdash; and for years tried to add more.<\/p>\n<p>A 2018 deal for 11 Russian Su-35s, partly to be paid in commodities, withered under the threat of US sanctions and was quietly shelved. More recently, Indonesia was lined up to become an export customer for Boeing's F-15EX Eagle II, with US approval in 2022 and a memorandum signed in 2023. But in early 2026 &mdash; just as the Rafales were arriving &mdash; those talks faltered amid cost and a crowded shopping list.<\/p>\n<p>That list still includes the future. Indonesia remains a partner in South Korea's KF-21 Boramae programme and has signalled interest in Turkey's TAI KAAN. Whether Jakarta can afford &mdash; and sustain &mdash; so many different types at once is the open question hanging over the whole effort.<\/p>\n<p>For now, though, the milestone is real and concrete: after years of paperwork, tranches and false starts, French-built fighters are finally flying in Indonesian colours. Three down. Thirty-nine to go.<\/p><p style=\"font-size:13px;color:#888;font-style:italic;margin-top:18px\">Sources: Dassault Aviation; The Diplomat; AeroTime; Air Data News; Janes; Defense Mirror.<\/p>\n<div
