BIKP (OPA) – Kopasker Airport – Kópasker.

Formula One championship-winning cars The Kopaska (Indonesian: Komando Pasukan Katak, Frogman Forces Command) is the premier frogman and underwater demolition unit of the Indonesian Navy.

The personnel of Kopaska are recruited from Indonesian Navy seamen.

Like other Indonesian special forces, Kopaska is trained to be able to conduct operations in the sea, including underwater, on land and airborne.

Kopaska was heavily influenced by the early US Navy Frogman Underwater Demolition Teams (UDTs) and modern Navy SEAL Teams.

Kopaska was officially established on the 31st of March 1962 by President Sukarno to help his campaign Operation Trikora in Western New Guinea.

Returning to Indonesia, these men then recruit new personnel for Kopaska.

Recruitment was difficult in the early years of Kopaska as only a few navy members could pass the qualifications process.

Recruitment became even more difficult when President Sukarno announced in 1961 the commencement of Operation Trikora in Western New Guinea (then the Netherlands New Guinea), as Kopaska were required to conduct beach reconnaissance, beach clearing, prisoner snatches, and [torpedo] missions.

The latter two missions were the most daring planned by Kopaska – the first planned to snatch Rear Admiral Reeser, Commander in Chief of the Dutch Armed Forces in the Territory, and the human torpedo was aimed at the Dutch aircraft carrier Karel Doorman.

Due to a lack of personnel Kopaska had to borrow 21 troops from the army special forces which at that time still called RPKAD - Army Paracommando Regiment, including Colonel Sarwo Edhie Wibowo the then regimental commander, and three from the Greater Jakarta Military Region Command (Kodam Jaya).

Of the troops assigned to the Trikora campaign, the three Army personnel from Kodam Jaya (Maksum, Alex Sunaryo, and Budi Suroyo) attended Seaman School in the Naval Education and Training Command (Kodikal) and became regular members of Kopaska.

Until present, Kopaska still trained their specialities to other Indonesian Special Forces units:.
