Indo Defence: PT Pindad Badak breaks cover
Indonesian armoured vehicle manufacturer PT Pindad is exhibiting a version of its 6x6 Anoa2 APC integrated with a full CMI Defence 90mm turret for the first time at Indo Defence. The vehicle has been christened the Badak by the government.
In September the two companies signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to collaborate on the development of military vehicle weapons systems.
Belgian company, CMI Defence, has agreed to transfer technology and expertise to PT Pindad under the terms of the MoU. The latter will then licence manufacture and integrate CMI weapons systems onto its military vehicles.
