Indonesia in talks with U.S. to buy C-130s
Indonesian Defense Minister Juwono Sudarsono told Reuters on Saturday that he spoke to U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates on a plan to buy C-130 transport planes.
"With Gates we discussed the possibility of Hercules ... but because the market of that particular plane is quite tight we have to wait our turn," Sudarsono said in an interview.
"He promised for a discounted price but we don't know how much the discount will be. Because it is in their interest for Indonesia to remain stable," he said.
