Indonesia eyes mass production of Piranha torpedo from 2027

Indonesia is targeting 2027 for mass production of its domestically developed Piranha torpedo as it seeks greater sovereign capacity in undersea weapons. Moving from prototypes and trials to repeatable manufacturing would support naval anti-submarine requirements, local skills, and reduced dependence on imported munitions. The stated date is an industrial objective rather than confirmation that large-scale output has already begun, and the program's success will depend on qualification, funding, production readiness, platform integration, and reliable performance of propulsion, guidance, warhead, and safety systems under operational conditions.
