indonesia propone reducir a un tercio los pagos para el proyecto conjunto del caza kf-21

La foto de archivo, tomada el 17 de octubre de 2023, muestra uno de los prototipos del caza autóctono KF-21 en la Exhibición Internacional del Aeroespacio y la Defensa, en la Base Aérea de Seúl, en Seongnam, al sur de la capital surcoreana.

Seúl, 6 de mayo (Yonhap) — Indonesia ha propuesto reducir su cuota para un proyecto conjunto, con Corea del Sur, de desarrollo de aviones de combate, a alrededor de un tercio del monto original, dijeron fuentes, este lunes, en medio de las preocupaciones sobre los pagos atrasados.

Según fuentes, Indonesia sugirió, hace poco, pagar solo 600.000 millones de wones (442,3 millones de dólares) en total, por el proyecto del caza KF-21, después de que acordase, originalmente, pagar alrededor del 20 por ciento del costo total del proyecto, valorado en 8,1 billones de wones (5.960 millones de dólares), el cual fue lanzado, en 2015, a fin de desarrollar el caza supersónico avanzado para 2026.

Inicialmente, Yakarta había acordado pagar la suma a cambio de recibir un prototipo y la transferencia de tecnología, y producir 48 unidades en Indonesia, pero se dice que habría propuesto recortar el monto del pago con la condición de reducir también las transferencias tecnológicas.

El país del Sudeste Asiático ha contribuido al proyecto alrededor de 300.000 millones de wones (220,75 millones de dólares), hasta la fecha, y no ha cumplido con los plazos de pago, lo que genera dudas sobre su compromiso.

Se sabe que Yakarta pidió a Seúl, a finales del año pasado, que aplazara el pago del proyecto hasta 2034, pero Corea del Sur ha mantenido su postura de que debe realizarse antes de la fecha límite original, en 2026.

Un funcionario del Gobierno surcoreano dijo que se están llevando a cabo consultas con Indonesia y agregó que el Gobierno aún no ha decidido si aceptará la propuesta.
