Thai CN235's

Just found this at defence-aerospace.com:

CN-235 Order by Thailand

Thailand is interested in operating Dirgantara CN-235 aircraft and has ordered ten units worth US$200-220 million. Six of them will be operated by Thailand Ministry of Defence and the other four by Ministry of Agriculture.
As reported before, Dirgantara has proposed a counter-trade system for CN-235 aircraft sales. However, management has decided that the purchase by Thailand will be paid in cash, not in such a system.
The decision is in accordance with Indonesian Government policy on trading mechanisms.

Does anyone know who the the six for the Thai MOD are for? RTAF or the Army? My guess is the RTAF to replace the HS748’s (age) and/or the G.222’s (servicability issues)
