TERASBANDUNG.COM – PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI) is participating in the Indonesian International Search and Rescue (IISAR) 2026 exhibition, held from July 9–12, 2026, at the Nusantara International Convention Exhibition (NICE) in Pantai Indah Kapuk 2, North Jakarta. Located at Hall C No. 10, Booth C01, PTDI is showcasing various aerial platforms capable of supporting search and rescue operations. These include helicopters and aircraft such as the CN235, NC212, and N219, as well as engineering service products like the Elang Hitam MALE Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle (UCAV) and the Wulung Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAS). On the first day of IISAR 2026, the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Cultural Affairs (Menko PMK), Pratikno, visited the PTDI and Bell booths to inspect the aerospace products and solutions on display for search and rescue (SAR) operations. During the visit, the Minister personally viewed PTDI’s featured aerial platforms, including helicopters resulting from the collaboration between PTDI and Bell. PTDI’s participation in IISAR 2026 also involves its subsidiary, PT Nusantara Turbin dan Propulsi (PT NTP), which possesses capabilities in the Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) of aircraft engines and industrial turbines, as well as supporting engineering services. Initiated by the National Search and Rescue Agency (Basarnas) of the Republic of Indonesia, this exhibition is an international event that integrates exhibitions, forums, and operational challenges within the SAR sector, bringing together SAR authorities, industry players, and stakeholders from various countries onto a single collaborative platform. Adi Prastowo, Manager of Corporate Communications & Institutional Relations, stated that for PTDI, participation in IISAR 2026 serves as a strategic opportunity to showcase the company's capabilities in delivering aerial solutions that support search and rescue missions, while simultaneously expanding its network of national and international partnerships.
This commitment aligns with PTDI’s track record of strengthening Basarnas's aerial capabilities. Between 2013 and 2019, PTDI progressively delivered six AS365 N3+ Dauphin SAR helicopters, designed to support various search and rescue operations across Indonesia. Beyond providing the aircraft themselves, PTDI possesses the capability to deliver comprehensive after-sales services—ranging from maintenance, repair, and overhaul to technical support—to ensure the fleet's operational readiness. As the national aerospace industry player, PTDI continues to develop its capabilities across design, manufacturing, system integration, and after-sales support to deliver reliable, adaptive, and competitive aerospace solutions. Through its participation in the IISAR 2026 exhibition, PTDI aims to strengthen collaboration with SAR stakeholders while showcasing the capabilities of Indonesia's aerospace industry in supporting humanitarian, safety, and emergency response missions at both national and international levels.
