I was recalling there was a CNA documentary saying Indon feel threatened by PLAN coming closer to SCS near Indon territory.... 

Maybe the J10 not for this issue, probably Indon Navy and Coast Guards using non-MIC warships.😅

 

Yes. They don’t have a formal territory dispute but they do have overlapping EEZ claims where Natuna Regency is vis-à-vis the Nine Dash Line.

Natuna for its size is a strategic lynchpin in the SCS and Indonesia, like Singapore, keeps overwatch of the area.

It is possible that the Indonesians 放话just to nudge the F-15EX negotiations, they have seen Malaysia attempt to lean east when they purchased MiG-29 then later SU-30.

Buy cheap, buy twice!

Blamed himself. 

Don't blamed the bobo shooter that shot far off target.

 

Man suffers gunshot wound while cycling in restricted forested area near SAF live-firing activity

2.3km seems way too long range for a normal rifle round? Would have to be a huge round to travel so far. Like even gpmg also can't travel so far 

Probably some inaccuracy in the reporting.

I think the SAR21 max effective range is up to 800m. The maximum range is more than 3km.

Likely shot trajectory was high like a golf ball.

IMHO.
SAR21 specs,  effective range is 460m.
5.56mm on M16, maximum firing range can be 3.6km.
