IMSS-BASED INDONESIAN DEFENSE CONCEPT MAP FOR THE SUNDA STRAIT REGION

The Indonesian Archipelago Seaway (ALKI) is a strategic area with heavy ship traffic. Starting with ships entering and exiting the Straits of Melaka (ALKI I), the Straits of Makassar (ALKI II) to the Papuaan waters (ALKI III).To protect and regulate seaway in Indonesian territorial waters, a centralized system is needed that can monitor all ships passing through Indonesian waters.Integrated Maritime Surveillance System (IMSS) is one of the latest technologies used by the militaries in many countries. Indonesia is one of the countries that has beganto implement IMSS in the marine defense system.In this paper, we conduct an evaluation of the IMSS concept in Indonesian waters to improve the seaway security. The results of the study conducted show thatthe implementation of monitoring systems using IMSS systems is important and needs to be implemented, especially in the ALKI I region, especially in the Sunda Strait. This requires good performance and coordination between the people and departments responsible for their respective responsibilities and functions. In practice, however, leadership in implementing information systems development and implementing IMSS-based oversight within the Navy still faces various hurdles

Sea Defense Strategy of Anti-Submarine on We Island

WE island belonging to Indonesia at the lowest position in the west end which is the basis of the outer defenses of the earliest in the face of possible threats from the outside, especially the threat of attack from the sea. Marine threat which could give psychological pressure on closers strategic funnels and its presence is difficult to detect and is capable of operating for a long time is the threat of submarines. This study aimed to describe and analyze the anti-submarine naval defenses on the island We if linked to possible threats arising submarine in the area that can be used as input by the leadership in making decisions in the future. The study was conducted by the method of the subject matter of literature and anti-submarine warfare. It is concluded that anti-submarine defense pattern idyllic island We by utilizing all the facilities and potential to face any possibility of a threat submarine opponents and use their combat functions by the opponent effectively in the waters of the We island Keywords: sea defense, submarine, We island DOI: 10.7176/IAGS/81-03 Publication date:March 31st 202
