Defense is a strategic aspect that is of concern to countries in the international constellation, including Indonesia. Indonesia has national interests in the defense and security sector, especially in terms of protecting its territory and citizens based on perceived threats from within and outside the region. Therefore, the main weapon system (alutsista) is needed to maintain stability and strengthen the country's defense to guard against threats originating from outside. So it can be said that the fundamental problem that drives Indonesia's defense diplomacy with Turkey in the defense equipment industry sector is Indonesia's national interest in maintaining defense and security. Minimum Essential Force (MEF) is a form of Indonesia's national interests in the defense and security sector. MEF (Minimum Essential Force) is the minimum standard implemented by Indonesia to maintain the country's sovereignty and strength. MEF is part of Indonesia's state defense policy and is a goal that must be achieved by the TNI (Indonesian National Armed Forces) to maintain the country's resilience and security. Not only that, the MEF also includes comprehensive strengthening of military capabilities, with a focus not only on building defense equipment but also on improving infrastructure and other resources. MEF was designed and implemented as a method to meet Indonesia's defense needs, with the aim of Indonesia reaching a minimum force capacity by 2024.
