I do still believe they can only replace Aspide fixed Position with Shorad. Well this carrier will mostly stay within Indonesia water anyway. So point defence shorad should be ok, I think.
Indonesia waters (teritorial plus EEZ) is 6.4 km2 thus already more then twice of Mediterania 2.5 km2. This carrier will have enough waters to handle by staying within teritory.
Circulating on line from TNI-AD AH-64E pilot, that training on deck landing simulator. This seems in line with TNI-AL chief that talk the carrier helicopter will come from all 3 TNI branches, not just from TNI-AL.

Begin to trickling online video from Journo/Enthusiats that attend welcoming event of ITS Garibaldi. It is been schedulle hand over ceremony will be done soon, with President, Defence Minister and all TNI Heads. That ceremony's expected to change the name from ITS Giuseppe Garibaldi to KRI Sriwijaya.
Marina Militare crew still dominate Garibaldi operation. Thus it is clearly will take time to hand over operation to TNI-AL crew. So I really doubt this ship soon can participate as mother ship for helicopters on fire fighting operation, as Prabowo wants. Unless TNI-AL have different arrangement with Marina Militare for crew arrangement.

Yes, it seems the name will indeed become KRI Sriwijaya. I expect it will get boegnummer 101.

Arrival of KRI Sriwijaya in Jakarta.

In this video, the naval chief of staff confirms that Lampung becomes the homebase of KRI Sriwijaya, because of the geographic conditions. It is hower unclear yet in which unit it will end up, but for now it will be part of the support vessels.

Indonesian Navy to retrofit Giuseppe Garibaldi for 20-year service
Indonesian Navy Chief of Staff (KSAL) Admiral Muhammad Ali confirmed that the Giuseppe Garibaldi, set to become Indonesia's first aircraft carrier, ...
en.antaranews.com
15-20 year of Service confirm the intention to keep her in operation for 2040+. Fincantieri is the lead with PAL as integrator for refit project. Remain to be seen the yard location where the refit will be done. I still suspect either Republik Palindo or Noahtu that already sign partnership agreement with Fincantieri. PAL CEO definetely try to lobby on PAL yard, but he's already overwhelm PAL capacity.
Tropicalise habitable systems is expected and also electronics upgrade. However I still doubt they want to change the propulsion from present COGAG to CODAG. Is simply too complex and need a lot of changes on structural and engine room space.
From rumours that I heard Fincantieri offer two option; optimise present COGAG for tropical condition (more straight forward simple adjustment) and CODAG conversion. 2nd one is more expensive and much more complex job. This is why I suspect tropicalise COGAG is what more likely to happen.
Also the weapon system is not being talk as part of retrofit.

Putting in this thread because of Marines, but a delivery of 35 AAV7A1 is expected to take place, with the first 10 arriving before the end of this month. No makelaar.

These 35 AAV7A1s, are these second hands from the same source as the current vehicles in Korps Marinir's possession (South-Korea), or are these ex-USMC?

ex-USMC, the deal was made with the US

The # 35 is coming from Frenchie Salesman video. Take that with salt as he has shown wrong several times when talking outside French-Euro deal. He is not in the inner circle of US deal. However AAV7 ex USMC has been in discussion for few years since the time Andika Prakarsa still TNI Chief.
His talk on US G to G has no brokerage or middle man also not entirely true. We see that in the case of AH-64 and F-16, eventough has to admit the role of middle man is not as substantial as other supplier procurement.
The difference from what i see is not due to G to G, but more to financing. Middleman in other supplier procurement is also heavily involve on arranging financing scheme. This matter especially if the exporting/supplier nation has dificulties providing export financing on their own. Thus brokerage usually engage with arranging financing scheme between Financial Institution so the Supplier can have working capital to build and Buyer can have the financing scheme that fits on their budgetary cash flow.
US has already have and establish intitution for financing scheme on defense export or military surplus scheme. Thus the need for Brokerage to arrange financing is reduce. However does not mean diminish, as we see on the case of AH-64E procurement. Example related to financing on shore projects at buyers infrastructur or other supporting projects or other financing that not directly related to main asset procurement. Thus G to G again still can open to additional commercial financing. Still using commercial financing is not means potential corruption. Corruption can only prevented by proper financial control and not type of procurement agreement or financing.
Frenchie salesman know well on this, but he try to sell the idea to public if buying G to G from US or Western Euro sources, the need for brokerage diminish, thus also corruption. However this is not true, and guys like him just try to smeer procurement from his competitors that relies more on commercial financing scheme.
Anyway there's talk that KRI Sriwijaya will be classified as Amphibious Transport Asset and not Carrier. Thus it will not prefix '1' but '5' as hull number. Thus Garibaldi 551 number can be use, instead change it to 100.

PT PAL Kaji Ganti Sistem Pendorong Kapal Garibaldi - Nasional
PT PAL Indonesia membuka kemungkinan untuk mengganti sistem pendorong kapal perang induk Giuseppe Garibaldi.
Not unexpected, as PAL CEO always try to shown to media, PAL can do everything. For a ship yard that have zero experience on carrier and also zero experience on installing gas turbine, now claim it can do COGAG propulsion conversion. I only say, thank god the refit is lead by Fincantieri.

Garibaldi Perlu Dikawal Kapal Destroyer? Begini Jawaban KSAL |Republika Online
Tidak harus destroyer, fregat bisa mengawal, yang penting punya kemampuan antiudara.
news.republika.co.id
TNI-AL chief told media that destroyer procurement is not immediate plan. He also says that having Frigate with decent AAW, AsuW, ASW and EW is enough as escort for carrier. Considering budget now being allocate for interim submarine and additional Frigate, it is clear massage.
Beside fully armed FMP with AESA Radar and 64 VLS, it has similar fire power with most Destroyers. Also full config PPA with potential 32 VLS also enough for the job. Better additional 2 PPA and 2 FMP then 2 Destroyer. Let alone the destroyer is Type 54B.
