Name edit

The vessel is named after the Cakra, a weapon in the form of a wheel with teeth resembling spearheads that was owned by Batara Wisnu, a recurring character in wayang puppet theatre.[3]

Construction edit

KRI Cakra was ordered on 2 April 1977,[1] laid down on 25 November 1977 and completed on 18 March 1981.[4] The vessel was designed by Ingenieurkontor Lübeck of Lübeck, constructed by Howaldtswerke-Deutsche Werft of Kiel, and sold by Ferrostaal of Essen – all acting together as a West German consortium.[1]

Operational history edit

The two Cakra-class submarines, Cakra and Nanggala, were the only active submarines in the Indonesian Navy between the decommissioning of KRI Pasopati in 1994[5] and the commissioning of KRI Nagapasa in 2017.[6][7]

Both Cakra-class vessels underwent major refits at HDW spanning three years from 1986 to 1989. Cakra was refitted again at Surabaya from 1993 to April 1997, including replacement batteries and updated Sinbad TFCS.[1]

Cakra began another refit at Daewoo Shipyard, South Korea in 2004. It was completed in 2005. Work is reported to have included new batteries, overhaul of engines and modernisation of the combat system.[1]
