Aceh insurgency Weapons and Equipment

The Aceh insurgency was a long-running separatist conflict in northern Sumatra between Indonesian security forces and the Free Aceh Movement.

The Aceh insurgency was a separatist conflict in Indonesia's Aceh province that ran from 1976 until the 2005 peace agreement. The war centered on Indonesian counter-insurgency operations against the Free Aceh Movement and later entered a negotiated settlement after years of violence.

This archive covers weapon systems directly documented in the Aceh insurgency, including aircraft, small arms, and other equipment used in Indonesian counter-insurgency operations.

Entries should use source-backed conflict context because the conflict spans decades and not every weapon reference implies direct combat use.
