ANALISIS PEMILIHAN JENIS KRI GUNA MEMPERSIAPKAN PERTAHANAN DAN KEAMANAN LAUT IBU KOTA NEGARA DI PERAIRAN AMBALAT

Ambalat waters are the waters that are the center of attention on the border between Malaysia and Indonesia, have long been a source of potential conflict between the two countries. Maritime security in this region is very important, especially in the context of the defense and maritime security of the National Capital. The relocation of the National Capital of Jakarta to the National Capital of the Archipelago which has been planned by the Government of the Republic of Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the selection of the appropriate type of KRI to prepare for maritime defense and security in the Ambalat waters. This analysis considers various threat factors, operational patterns, and the selection of the type of KRI. We consider various technical aspects in the form of specifications, capabilities, KRI leases and are faced with the priority of High, Medium, Low threats and alternatives for selecting the type of KRI under the Escort Ship Unit (SATKOR), Fast Ship Unit (SATKAT), Submarine Unit (SATSEL). With a quantitative research method, interviews were conducted with experts to determine the threats and alternatives that were prioritized and the calculation of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) using Microsoft Excel to determine recommendations for selecting the type of KRI. The results of quantitative research show the priority of criteria that will later be narrowed down to the priority of selecting the type of KRI from various alternative choices and reviewed from the degree of threat analyzed by the researcher. Theoretically, previous theories and research can be used in this study so that they can be utilized in further research. The results of this study, the criteria that are prioritized are KRI Specifications with an assessment weight of 0.3367982, while the priority of the threat that is prioritized is the High threat with an assessment weight of 0.73127143 and the alternative KRI that is the main choice is the Eskorta Ship Unit with an assessment weight of 0.556293057.
