#Indonesia has once again become the focus of renewed information campaigns beginning in May 2026. Certain accounts circulated a large number of tweets about a signed deal to acquire Chinese J-10 fighter jets by Indonesia that were further amplified by #Chinese and #Pakistan linked accounts.

A detailed report by https://t.co/jttcLXYPSd examining the broader dimensions of this disinformation campaign — including the methodologies employed, networked accounts involved, and key narratives circulated — will be released this Friday

#Indonesia is facing the aggressively promoted online coordinated narratives and disinformation campaigns for Chinese military technology.
The apparent objective was to cast doubt on #Rafale purchases while positioning Chinese fighters like the J-10 as superior alternatives in the global defense market. Recently, several accounts have circulated claims that Jakarta has already signed a deal to acquire Chinese J-10 fighter jets.

However, no official agreement has been finalized. While Indonesian officials had previously expressed interest in acquiring the J-10, reports from Tempo indicate that the government is still assessing multiple fighter options, meaning a deal may or may not ultimately materialize.

The Thinkfi team, in collaboration with @tempodotco recently examined this evolving information landscape. Tempo has now published an article covering our combined findings on Chinese influence operations targeting Indonesian discourse around the J-10 and #Rafale fighter jet deal.

Much of the J-10 promotion intensified after the India–Pakistan conflict and #OperationSindoor , with social media networks amplifying claims that the aircraft had outperformed India’s Rafales in combat.
#Indonesia became a major target of these narratives at the time, as hashtags like #HentikanRafaleDeal (“Stop Rafale Deal”) circulated online in an apparent attempt to influence opinion against Jakarta’s Rafale acquisition plans.

ONE YEAR OF #OPERATIONSINDOOR: Revisiting the attacks, responses and the war beyond the battlefield: Unarmed civilians targeted in Pahalgam. Iron-clad brothers come together to defend the attack and attackers. A war of narratives and the game of financial gain.
“Pakistan and China Coordinated Cognitive Warfare”
The attack, the fightback, the war of narratives - “IWT, Nuclear attack, Peacemaker, Rafael & BrahMos, driven by Pak & China and the economic gain.
The Coverage:

[ThinkFi @ThinkFi_net]

Warfare of the modern era. After the Pahalgam attack and then Operation Sindoor, the conflicts from the borders have shifted to perception. Where narratives, propaganda, misinformation and disinformation are used to de-emphasise terrorism, deify China & Pakistan and discredit India.
5th Generation Warfare
The war is now cognitive- fought in perception, narratives and information.
Observation is clear: China Orchestrating the game of narratives along with Pakistan.
