I'm not someone who completes a CS on first iteration, so this is not complete and will be improved upon in a short time.
Name: Farid Ramdani
Nickname/Callsign: Musket
Age: 25
Nationality: Indonesian
Appearance:
Bio: Born in Bogor in 1993, Farid had hardly any memory of the events that happened in 1998, what he would later refer to as "Shelling" instead of the term the mainstream media used. He was only told about the event by his parents and anyone old enough and still alive to remember them. What he knew was that the Indonesian economy, which was Jakarta-centric and already failing by the start of 1998 on every level, took a very hard hit after the Shelling completely obliterated Jakarta and reduced the central government, which was already hanging on the cliff due to pro-democracy protests, to ashes. Farid's early life was tough; his family were constantly in the state of poverty for many years. Hence when he finished high school in 2011, in doing so already straining his parents's finances (who, fortunately, supported their first child to have decent education whatever it takes), he attended the military academy because the state will cover all expenses.
Service Record: Farid has served in the Indonesian Air Force for three years. He had rarely seen "actual" combat because his country was pretty much at peace. However, he had seen a few "virtual" combats: that is, real tension with each side trying to lock on the other but without firing any actual missile; the missile lock-on serve as a stern warning to the other side. One was against USAF F-18s in the Indian Ocean after the Hornets allegedly flew into Indonesian airspace, but he was an easy target at the time and was quickly locked on. Another was against Chinese J-10s on the Natuna Islands, this time he managed to lock on a J-10. Due to the rise of UNWO, Farid was one of the Indonesians who were just recently sent to serve with the so-called UN peacekeeping force who now needed to transform into a capable global freedom defence force.

F-20Modifications: Farid's F-20 is the same as other Indonesian F-20s, which serves as an interim fighter prior to the arrival of the 4.5th generation

- Standard Avalon upgrades
- Engine swapped with 1 x General Electric F414
- Updated stores management systems, allowing a wider range of ordnance
- Conformal fuel tanks
- AESA radar
- Glass cockpit
- Electronic warfare system
- Retractable in-flight refueling probe
- Three-dimensional thrust vectoring
Personal Colour Scheme: Standard scheme, except for a small picture near the left and right wings, depicting a silhouette of a J-10 inside a crosshair as a reminder to the virtual dogfight at Natuna Islands.

Note: This character holds a strong anti-Israel sentiment, although he does not want another Holocaust.
