JAKARTA — Indonesia's navy is searching for 53 people on board a missing submarine and is seeking help from Australia and Singapore, the country's military chief told Reuters on Wednesday (April 21).

The German-made submarine, KRI Nanggala-402, was conducting a torpedo drill in waters north of the island of Bali on Wednesday but failed to relay the results as expected, a navy spokesman said.

They build the brand new submarine in batam based on south korean design.
Their corvettes are based on dutch design since they were ex dutch colony.
They even build navy ships for philippine navy.
The german submarine must be one of their older ones.

When the last upgrading work for this submarine was done by the Koreans, you will question about the quality of the upgrading.

Most likely kenna blown up by tiong submarine liao.
Najib allowed tiong submarine to use kota kinabalu base next to RMN scorpene submarine. Side by side. So 8 imagine induan and Australia navy, which also uses scorpene, are already compromised..

Not only they build their own subs, but they are quite sophisticated too with acoustic deadening panels mounted.
Indonesia under Jokowi is going places.

Grand Banks, not SeaRay or Stingray or simi lan cheow ray.:rolleyes:

I think that's a good idea regarding the search and rescue. After all, I have a submersible which I use to find mermaids and also megalodon.

Ironically only Singapore and Australia has submarine rescue capability. It’s with a sub tender not another sub.

Indonesia's navy is searching for a missing submarine with 53 people on board and is seeking help from Australia and Singapore in the hunt.

Key points:
Assistance in the search for the submarine and missing crew is being sought from Australia and Singapore, an official confirms
The 1,395-tonne KRI Nanggala-402 was built in Germany in 1978 and underwent a two-year refit in South Korea
Indonesia in the past operated a fleet of 12 submarines purchased from the Soviet Union to patrol the waters of its sprawling archipelago
The German-made submarine, KRI Nanggala-402, was conducting a torpedo drill in waters north of the island of Bali but failed to relay the results as expected, a navy spokesman said.

Military chief Hadi Tjahjanto said that contact with the vessel was lost at 4:30am local time on Wednesday.

"We are still searching in the waters off Bali, 96 kilometres from Bali, [for] 53 people," military chief Hadi Tjahjanto told Reuters in a text message.

Indonesia's Defence Ministry said the submarine lost contact after being granted clearance to dive. It said a helicopter later spotted an oil slick near the dive's starting position.

The submarine was carrying 49 crew members, its commander and three gunners, it said.

The navy said an electrical failure may have occurred during the dive, causing the submarine to lose control and become unable to undertake emergency procedures that would have allowed it to resurface.

It said it believes the submarine sank to a depth of 600-700 metres.

Mr Tjahjanto said the navy has deployed scores of ships to search the area, including a hydrographic survey ship, and has asked for help from Singapore and Australia, which have submarine rescue vessels.

Representatives of the defence departments of Australia and Singapore did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

However, independent Senator Rex Patrick, a former submariner, has expressed his deep concern but is of the view that there is still hope.

"You never know what can eventuate in these situations. I wish our Indonesian friends the very best in their endeavours to quickly find the submarine and I know that the RAN and RAAF will offer all available support in assisting the Indonesian Navy," Senator Patrick said.

The 1,395-tonne KRI Nanggala-402 was built in Germany in 1978, according to the Indonesian cabinet secretariat's website, and underwent a two-year refit in South Korea that was completed in 2012.

Indonesia in the past operated a fleet of 12 submarines purchased from the Soviet Union to patrol the waters of its sprawling archipelago.

But now it has a fleet of only five — two German-built Type 209 submarines and three newer South Korean vessels. It plans to operate at least eight by 2024.

Indonesia has been seeking to upgrade its defence capabilities but some of its equipment still in service is old and there have been deadly accidents involving, in particular, ageing military transport planes in recent years.
