Leading Czech Manufacturers of Defense and Electronic Systems to Exhibit at Indodefence 2025 in Jakarta
The next edition of Indodefence 2025, an international defense industry fair, will take place in Jakarta, Indonesia from June 11 to 14. Once again, companies belonging to the CSG group from the CSG Aerospace and CSG Defence divisions will participate, showcasing their latest products and services.
Companies from the global industrial-technology group CSG are highly active and commercially successful in the Southeast Asian region. The size of the local market offers additional business and partnership opportunities. In previous years, the CSG has delivered armored vehicles, Tatra vehicles, rocket launchers, engineering equipment, airport radars, ammunition, spare parts, and more to Indonesia. At Indodefence 2025, CSG's capabilities and offerings will be represented by Excalibur International, Excalibur Army, Eldis, Retia, and MSM Group. In a joint exhibition, representatives of these companies will present armored military vehicles, logistics vehicles, air defense systems, ammunition of various calibers, as well as radars and air traffic control systems to both experts and visitors.
This year, Excalibur International will unveil a medium-range air defense system and, in collaboration with CSG Aerospace companies, display a long-range surveillance radar supporting air defense – both presented in scale model form.
The CSG Defence division will be represented by Excalibur Army (EA). EA will showcase its entire portfolio of combat and special land systems through digital visualizations and presentations. These include the Patriot 4x4 armored vehicle, MORANA 155 mm and DITA 155 mm artillery systems, AM-50 EX and AM-70 EX bridge vehicles, and RM-70 Vampire rocket launchers with Puma armored cabins. EA representatives at Indodefence will also sign a cooperation agreement with Aselsan on the project of supplying remote-controlled weapon stations for the Indonesian army. Part of the planned supply is intended, for example, for Alakran mobile mortars, which EA has successfully offered to the Indonesian army.
The CSG Defence division will also present other services and products, including the latest Pandur 8x8 EVO armored vehicle recently presented at the IDET fair in Brno, which is designed as a platform adapted to the specific conditions of the Southeast Asian region.
Eldis Pardubice will show its latest generation products for comprehensive airport radar solutions. Specifically, it will present scale models of two new radar systems: RL-3000 and PAR-NG. The RL-3000 is a long-range 3D radar based on software-defined architecture and provides three-dimensional tracking of non-cooperative aerial targets. The PAR-NG represents a brand-new generation of airport approach radar suitable for both civil and military airports.
Retia will bring its ReTwis 5+ portable radar to Jakarta, capable of detecting and tracking people and living beings behind non-metallic obstacles. It will also present a mobile 3D X-band radar system for very short-range protection against unmanned aerial systems (C-UAS). This compact system combines fully electronic beam steering with a mechanically rotating antenna, enabling detection not only of drones but also of traditional aerial and ground targets including aircraft, helicopters, and vehicles.
Slovak MSM Group will exhibit a wide range of large-caliber ammunition and accessories from Slovak companies ZVS, MSM Nováky, and Spanish manufacturer Fábrica de Municiones de Granada (FMG). The product portfolio will include 155 mm and 105 mm artillery ammunition, 120 mm tank rounds, all NATO-standardized, as well as 155 mm training ammunition and supplementary pyrotechnics or propellant charges.
The previous edition of Indodefence in 2022 welcomed over 36,000 visitors and featured exhibits from more than 905 exhibitors from 59 countries, reflecting the event's growing significance not only for the region but for global defense manufacturers as well. In addition to the fair itself, the accompanying program includes a series of expert conferences and other events.
