A Look at Kostrad’s Leopard 2: German-Made Tank Equipped with Smart Ammunition

"If there's ammunition or an attack from the enemy, it can be deflected by the armor," he added.

The Leopard 2 RI requires a crew of four: the driver, vehicle commander, gunner, and loader responsible for handling ammunition.

The tank features an image of a rhinoceros, which is the insignia of the unit operating this armored vehicle — the 1st Cavalry Battalion Tank, known as Badak Ceta Cakti.

Iman hopes the TNI Fair will continue to be developed so that the public has broader opportunities to get to know the main weapons system (alutsista) owned by the TNI.

"If possible, it should be expanded so the wider community better understands Indonesia’s military strength," he said.

He emphasized that public introduction to military equipment is also important to provide an overview of the Army’s power.

TNI Fair 2026

TNI Fair 2026 is held at the National Monument (Monas) Crossroads area in Central Jakarta, starting Saturday (19/9/2026) until Sunday (20/9/2026), from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.

The fair showcases various primary weapons systems (alutsista) and non-weapons equipment from the three branches of the TNI.

Besides the alutsista exhibition, visitors can participate in other activities, such as military technology displays, information on TNI soldier recruitment, and soldier performances on the entertainment stage.
