  ## Service history
  
  Tombak was built by PT PAL and was commissioned into the Indonesian Navy on 27 August 2014. She was initially assigned to the Eastern Fleet Command (Koarmatim). In June 2015, Tombak alongside the KRI Hiu (634) conducted joint exercises with the Australian Navy vessels Glenelg and Wollongong in Kupang. Her missile launchers were removed in late 2017 and a Type 630 CIWS was installed, but by May 2019 there were plans to reattach the launchers in a different position.
  
  In August 2019, she participated in the rescue of passengers of the MV Santika Nusantara, a RORO passenger ship which caught fire in the Java Sea. Alongside the Halasan, Tombak took part in the 2019 International Maritime Defense Exhibition & Conference (IMDEX) Asia as one of the two Indonesian Navy vessels on display.
