The Garuda SkyEye is a Supersonic bomber aircraft that used by the Indonesian Air Force .

Introduced in 2011, I was a predecessor of K-3 Bambu that never comes in full scale production.

Design

The K-3B configuration was clearly reminiscent of that of the two-seat Jaguar, with the two aircraft having the same overall configuration and some resemblance in details. In particular, the K-3B was also powered by two Rolls-Royce Turbomeca Adour turbofans, the same engines used by the Jaguar, license-built by PT-DI Industries under the designation "KOH-3BX".

The K-3B was made mostly of aircraft aluminum alloys, though it featured selective use of titanium. The high-mounted wings had a leading edge sweep of 42.5° and a 9° anhedral. The wings feature noticeable "leading edge root extensions (LERX)" and full-span leading edge slats, with a "dogtooth" discontinuity on the outer edge of the span, though the dogtooth did not split the slat. There was a single ¾-span flap on the trailing edge, unlike the full-span double-slotted split flaps of the Jaguar, but the K-3B did have twin spoilers on each wing just forward of the flap for roll control instead of ailerons, another element clearly derived from the Jaguar. There was a small fence mounted inboard on the top of the wing. There were no fuel tanks in the wings.

Radar And Radio System

Standard equipment for the armed K-3B Used ID/AWG-11 search and ranging radar in the nose; a French Thomson-CSF heads-up display (HUD), license-built by PT.DI; a Lear-Siegler 501OBL automatic heading and reference system (AHRS); as well as a UHF radio, an identification friend or foe (IFF) system, and a TACAN radio beacon navigation receiver system, all built in Indonesia.[12] The J/AWG-11 was basically a member of the family of radars fitted to the U.S. F-4 Phantom, being very similar to the AN/AWG-11 fitted to the British Royal Navy Phantom FG.1. The unarmed K-3B lacked the radar,[13] though apparently its avionics kit was otherwise the same as that of the K-3B.
