Indonesian Politician Suspects Unidentified Underwater Drone Has Chinese Origin
An Indonesian government official believes an underwater drone found by local fishermen last month is of Chinese origins.
The Governor of the Indonesian region of South Sulawesi, Nurdin Abdullah, said on Tuesday that based on preliminary findings “it seems like the drone was made in China.”
“Whether it was put there or who put it there is unknown to us,” Abdullah said.
The confirmation comes after Indonesian security and defence commentators noted its resemblance to Chinese “Sea Wing” drones.
Indonesian defence commentator JATOSINT wrote on Twitter on Dec. 29 that the drone’s specifications resemble to those used by China.
