This thesis presents a conceptual analysis of the utilization of Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) technology to support the Indonesian Navy (TNI AL) in maintaining maritime security within the ALKI II (Indonesian Archipelagic Sea Lane II) region, in order to enhance operational efficiency and effectiveness. USVs are surface vessels that operate autonomously or are remotely controlled without onboard human presence. These vehicles can be operated from land-based control stations or from other vessels. The main research question addressed in this study is how the development and application of USV technology can support the Indonesian Navy’s mission in safeguarding maritime security within the ALKI II corridor. This study considers USVs as a surveillance asset, representing a technological advancement that can significantly enhance the Navy’s surveillance and monitoring capabilities. It is expected that the implementation of USVs will contribute to improved efficiency in securing and supervising ALKI II, while also promoting effective coordination among relevant stakeholders. Ultimately, the presence of USVs may help to reduce and prevent unlawful activities in the ALKI II waters. This research employs a qualitative methodology. The findings indicate that the use of USVs enhances both operational effectiveness and efficiency, thereby supporting the Indonesian Navy’s mission to secure the ALKI II region. This study aims to provide strategic recommendations to the Indonesian Navy regarding the development and integration of USV technology. It is anticipated that such measures will serve as a significant step toward reinforcing maritime security in the ALKI II corridor.

Goods distribution applications have become key in facilitating goods data management. This study explores goods distribution applications, focusing on their development, implementation, and impacts with the aim of improving the effectiveness of procurement planning and the distribution process of kaporlap. This study discusses an online database system that is integrated with the system to facilitate the distribution of kaporlap for the Indonesian Navy Academy Cadets by implementing technology. The application of advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), and goods distribution applications provide valuable insights to the Indonesian Navy Academy to improve the kaporlap data recording system and optimize the distribution process. The emphasis on data security is also important in ensuring integrity in providing accurate data for the benefit of implementing procurement planning and distribution of kaporlap in the Indonesian Navy Academy environment according to technological developments. The use of technology in goods distribution applications is a foundation for increasing knowledge and ease in carrying out activities, especially the distribution of kaporlap. Case studies and practical implementation provide a deeper understanding of the importance of this application to be realized and used by the Indonesian Navy Academy Cadets in the form of an online database system application equipped with QR Code and smartcard features that can be used without having to use a gadget. Thus, accurate kaporlap data can be obtained to support the planning of procurement and distribution of cadet kaporlap to be practical and more effective.

SIBENSAM is a mobile application owned by the Indonesian Navy to collect data on the personnel of the Indonesian Navy's kaporlap anywhere and anytime with the aim of reducing the time of the briefing process with the hope that the data produced has high accuracy. However, in the Indonesian Navy Academy environment, Cadets have not adopted the tool so that the method of collecting kaporlap data still uses the conventional method, namely filling out a form printed on paper. So that errors are still found in the data produced and the time required is very long to produce Kaporlap data as a basis for carrying out the briefing of the kaporlap of the Indonesian Navy Academy Cadets. The writing of this research proposal has the intention of creating a database of the AAL Taruna kaporlap to assist the duties of the Staff of the 4th Regiment of the Cadet Corps, thus this research proposal aims to be input for the Indonesian Navy Academy institution to create an application similar to SISBENSAM for the scope of the Indonesian Navy Academy Cadets. The current condition of the kaporlap data is inaccurate, the processing of kaporlap data takes a long time, and the cadets do not have time to carry out the kaporlap data update. The expected condition is that the kaporlap data produced is accurate, the processing of kaporlap data is concise, and the updating of kaporlap data is flexible as an indicator of the success of this research proposal. To realize this, a strategy was prepared including systematic design of the initial concept of the initial product, development of the initial product design, joint development with the TNI AL Disinfolahta. The conclusion of this study is that innovation is needed in the implementation of briefing activities in the scope of the TNI AL Academy Cadets which facilitates the work of the Staff of the 4 Regiments of the Cadet Corps and at the same time becomes a learning medium for the Cadets, especially for the Supply Corps Cadets.

securing the waters in the Sulawesi Sea against illegal fishing in order to increase the utilization of potential maritime resources. The main point of this study is that Indonesia has very abundant maritime resources and this is what triggers illegal fishing activities, especially in the Sulawesi Sea area, both by local citizens and foreign citizens. In response to this, agencies such as the Indonesian Navy (TNI - AL), the Maritime Security Agency (BAKAMLA), the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) and other agencies must be directly involved in these activities so that the Indonesian maritime territory and maritime resources in the Indonesian seas are not damaged and disturbed by these activities.

The professionalism of civil servants (PNS) is a requirement that must be achieved by an employee to demonstrate their abilities, potential, and desires positively, which will ultimately affect the performance of personnel and organizations, in this case, the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI), including in the environment of the Indonesian Navy Academy (AAL). The participation of civil servants in the AAL environment, hereafter referred to as AAL civil servants, greatly aids the implementation of the main duties and functions of AAL as an educational institution within the Indonesian Navy that has a specific function of educating the youth of Indonesia to become officers of the Indonesian Navy through academic-level education. Since human resources play an essential role, the researcher conducts a study to determine the extent to which job placement, education, and training influence civil servants at the Indonesian Navy Academy. The independent variables used are job placement, education, and training, while the dependent variable is the performance of civil servants.  The research analysis used multiple linear regression analysis with hypothesis testing using t-test (partial) and F-test (simultaneous). The population of the study consisted of 225 individuals with a sample of 144 people using explanatory research methods. The results showed that (1) Performance, job placement, education, and training of Civil Servants at the Naval Academy are categorized as fairly good, as evidenced by the performance assessment of members by their superiors. (2) Job placement, education, and training simultaneously have a significant effect on the performance of Civil Servants at the Naval Academy by 39.0%, with the remaining 61.0% influenced by other variables besides job placement, education, and training. (3) Job placement, education, and training partially have a significant effect on the performance of Civil Servants at the Naval Academy. Job placement has a significant partial effect of 29.8% on the performance of Civil Servants at the Naval Academy. Education and training partially have a significant influence of 28.0% on the performance of Civil Servants at the Navy TNI Academy.

Illegal fishing is a form of maritime crime that threatens the sustainability of marine resources and causes significant economic losses for the country, particularly for coastal communities such as those in Natuna Regency. This activity not only harms the fisheries sector but also impacts food security, social stability, and the marine ecosystem. This study aims to examine in depth the surveillance strategy implemented by the Maritime Security Agency (Bakamla) in combating illegal fishing practices in Natuna waters. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection through in-depth interviews and analysis of Bakamla's strategic documents. The theoretical framework used refers to the concept of strategy according to Fred R. David (2016), which includes strategy formulation, implementation, and evaluation. The results of the study indicate that Bakamla has formulated a surveillance strategy by relying on 24-hour sea patrols, utilizing technologies such as the Automatic Identification Sistem (AIS), radio communications, and satellites, and establishing cross-agency collaboration including the Indonesian Navy, the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, and local government officials. The strategy was implemented through rotating patrols, outreach activities for fishermen and coastal communities, and the establishment of a public reporting channel to facilitate the dissemination of information regarding illegal activities. However, the implementation of this strategy still faces obstacles, including limited operational budgets, inadequate patrol fleets, and suboptimal response to public reports. Evaluation of the monitoring strategy showed positive impacts in the form of increased public awareness and participation, as well as a decrease in cases of fish theft in several vulnerable areas. However, the level of public involvement in reporting and independent monitoring still needs to be increased so that the monitoring strategy can be more effective and sustainable in safeguarding the sovereignty of Indonesia's marine resources.  

The Naval Academy (Akademi TNI Angkatan Laut) is one of the units under the Indonesian Navy (TNI AL) with a direct command line to the Navy Chief of Staff (Kasal). The academy has subunits responsible for secretarial duties, administration, and archive management, specifically the Secretariat (Bagset) and Administrative Office (Tata Usaha). The objective of this research is to examine how to optimize the storage and disposal of letters and archives to ensure the smooth operation of general administration and secretarial affairs at the Naval Academy. It explores the issues and analyzes the requirements for the storage and disposal of letters and archives at the Naval Academy. The research employs a qualitative method. The study concludes that the suboptimal management of letters and archives at the Naval Academy is due to the lack of directives on the disposal of letters and archives, inadequate infrastructure for archive destruction, and the absence of an electronic application program that qualifies letters and archives based on their validity period and stores archives in softcopy form. For the optimization of archive management to ensure smooth general administration and secretarial operations at the Naval Academy, the researcher proposes several recommendations for Bagset and the administrative offices of each unit at the Naval Academy. These include increasing the number of personnel in the archival section with formal education in archiving, improving archive destruction facilities, and developing an electronic application that can automatically classify archives.

This research aims to identify and analyze the essential instructional tools needed in gas turbine learning for cadets of the Naval Academy's engineering corps using a mixed-method approach with an explanatory sequential design involving 160 respondents, consisting of 120 engineering corps cadets, 15 instructors, and 25 field engineering officers. The research results identified 28 types of gas turbine instructional tools categorized into four groups, with simulators and software showing the highest level of importance (4.65/5.0), and there were significant differences in the perception of importance levels among the three groups of respondents (F(2,157) = 12.45, p < 0.001). The AHP analysis produced a priority framework in four levels, with Level 1 encompassing 5 essential instructional tools: gas turbine simulator (0.742), gas turbine cut-section model (0.698), control system trainer kit (0.681), interactive learning video (0.673), and troubleshooting simulator (0.667). Regression analysis showed that instructional tools significantly contribute to learning effectiveness (R² = 0.742), with the gas turbine simulator as the main predictor (β = 0.384), positively impacting the cognitive aspect with a 26.8% increase in concept understanding (effect size 1.24), the affective aspect with an increase in learning motivation and career interest from 67% to 84%, and the psychomotor aspect with a 33.7% increase in hands-on skills and a 28.5% reduction in troubleshooting time. The resulting priority framework provides strategic guidance for optimizing resources and gradually developing gas turbine learning capabilities in military educational institutions, despite facing major obstacles such as budget constraints, technology compatibility, lack of quality human resources, and limited laboratory infrastructure.

Hydraulic systems are vital components in modern naval vessel operations, controlling 60-70% of all ship operational systems. This research aims to comprehensively analyze the benefits of hydraulic system learning for Engineering Corps cadets at the Indonesian Naval Academy (AAL). The study employed a mixed methods approach with concurrent embedded design, involving 163 cadets for quantitative components and 20 cadets for qualitative components. Data collection techniques included structured questionnaires, pre-test and post-test cognitive tests, practical performance observations, and semi-structured interviews. Quantitative data analysis used descriptive and inferential statistics, while qualitative data was analyzed using thematic analysis. Results showed significant improvement in hydraulic system knowledge with large effect size (Cohen's d = 2.31) and average score increase of 28.8%. Cadets' perception of learning benefits was highly positive (M = 4.31 on a 5-point scale), with "Relevance to Operational Tasks" dimension achieving the highest score (M = 4.47). Practical performance showed 74.8% of cadets achieved good to excellent grades. Qualitative analysis identified five main themes: technical understanding transformation, practical competency development, theory-practice integration, soft skills development, and career motivation and orientation. Factors influencing learning benefits included instructor quality (β = 0.34), practical facility availability (β = 0.28), and learning motivation (β = 0.23). This research confirms that hydraulic system learning provides multidimensional benefits encompassing cognitive, psychomotor, and affective aspects, contributing to holistic professional competency development essential for success as Indonesian Navy technical officers.

This study aims to analyze the influence of internal combustion engine instructional tools on the competency achievement of cadets at the Indonesian Naval Academy Technical Corps. Using a mixed-methods research approach with sequential explanatory design, this study involved 160 cadets divided into experimental group (n=80) and control group (n=80). Quantitative data were collected through knowledge competency tests, practical skills assessments, and attitude scales, while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and participatory observations. The results showed that internal combustion engine instructional tools had a positive and significant effect on cadet competency achievement in three domains: knowledge (Cohen's d = 1.56), practical skills (Cohen's d = 2.68), and learning attitudes (Cohen's d = 1.62). Multivariate analysis showed that the use of internal combustion engine instructional tools explained 68.8% of the variance in the combination of cadet competencies (Wilks' Lambda = 0.312, p<0.001). Qualitative findings identified four main themes: enhanced conceptual understanding, hands-on skills development, increased motivation and engagement, and implementation constraints. Mediation analysis showed that attitude served as a partial mediator in the relationship between instructional tools and competency achievement. The results confirm that internal combustion engine instructional tools are a crucial determinant factor in technical competency achievement, with significant implications for military technical education curriculum development and Indonesian Navy operational readiness.

Unmanned Surface Vessels (USV) have become a major focus in modern maritime technology for mine search and handling. Unmanned vessels are equipped with advanced sensors such as sonar and lidar to detect and map mines below the water's surface. In addition, image processing systems and artificial intelligence are used to analyze sensor data and identify mine locations with high accuracy. Once a mine is detected, the unmanned vessel is equipped with a mine handling system that can safely destroy or deactivate the mine. Thus, unmanned vessels are an effective and efficient solution in searching and handling mines in potentially dangerous waters. This study discusses the selection of unmanned vessels as a solution to search for and neutralize mines. This study was conducted quantitatively using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method to determine recommendations for Unmanned Vessels with Mine Countermeasure capabilities to the Indonesian Navy. The results of the quantitative study showed the priority of the criteria that would later narrow down to the priority of selecting an Unmanned Vessel from several alternative choices analyzed by the researcher. Theoretically, all previous theories and studies can be used in this study so that they can be utilized in subsequent studies. While practically this study provides recommendations for the Indonesian Navy regarding the characteristics of the Unmanned Axe and various supporting equipment that can be used to carry out Mining Operations and Mine Countermeasures Operations. The calculation results in this study indicate that the priority of the alternative Unmanned Vessel with the highest Mine Countermeasures capability is obtained by Inspector 125 from France with a weight of 0.37450145.

The Indonesian Navy Academy (AAL) is an Indonesian Navy educational institution that produces young Indonesian Navy officers who are tough and ready to be placed in KRI and in Marine Battalions throughout the territory of the Republic of Indonesia. Level III Marine Corps Cadets carry out Dikko training for 3 months in the Banyuwangi area. In the training there is material on guerrilla warfare which is carried out in the guerrilla versus guerrilla stage by utilizing the surrounding area with residents as partisans for cadets who carry out guerrilla training, in this training the provision of material is given in theory and practice which is carried out around the population so that students can mingle with the surrounding population and can complete the tasks given by the trainer in accordance with the objectives of the training. There are two factors that can influence the guerrilla versus guerrilla material, namely internal and external factors, this factor greatly affects the results of the training carried out by cadets because there are geographical influences and weather influences, the trainer will look for a new location so that the training can be carried out in accordance with the objectives of the training. In the implementation of the training, the expected results are that all students can understand the material given by the trainer and can be applied in guerrilla versus guerrilla training. The results of the study using management theory (POAC) have been implemented in guerrilla warfare training at DIKKO but need to be optimized especially in planning, organizing and actuating. Optimization is carried out by providing material in class not only theory but with applicable and technical methods, in Dikko training, additional supporting personnel and training equipment are needed (for example, civilian clothing), the implementation of training at AAL is adjusted to TOP standards so that all stages of training can be carried out and can improve the knowledge of Marine Corps Cadets

Maritime security and environmental protection in Indonesian waters, especially in Tanjung Uban, are strategic issues considering the high level of shipping activities and potential threats to marine ecosystems. This study focuses on the juridical analysis of the role of the Marine and Coast Guard Unit (KPLP) in improving maritime security and environmental protection, with a case study at the Tanjung Uban Class II Marine and Coast Guard Base. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the implementation of the duties and functions of the KPLP based on the existing legal framework, identify the obstacles faced, and provide recommendations to improve the performance of the KPLP. The research method used is a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis, including document studies, field observations, and interviews with related parties. The results of the study show that although KPLP Tanjung Uban has a strong legal foundation, the implementation of their duties and functions is still not optimal. The main obstacles include limited resources such as adequate personnel and equipment, lack of continuous training which results in low personnel competence, and ineffective coordination with related agencies such as the Indonesian Navy and Bakamla. The low awareness and compliance with safety and environmental regulations among maritime industry players also exacerbates the situation. Based on these findings, this study provides several suggestions. For KPLP, an increase in the budget is needed for the procurement of resources and equipment, as well as continuous training for personnel. For the public, especially ship owners and other users of waters, it is important to increase awareness and compliance with maritime and environmental regulations through active participation in education and socialization programs. Meanwhile, the government must strengthen coordination between relevant agencies through the establishment of regular coordination forums and integrated information systems, to ensure better synergy in surveillance, law enforcement, and emergency response in the waters of Tanjung Uban. This research is expected to make a significant contribution to improving maritime security and environmental protection in Indonesia, as well as becoming a reference for the development of more effective policies and strategies in the management of water areas

The Marine Corps is one of the TNI's Main Operations Commands (Kotama Ops) under the direct command of the TNI Commander. In the course of history, the Marine Corps has shown the Indonesian nation its capabilities as an amphibious landing force. To support this main task, the Marine Corps needs leaders who have the ability and skills to carry out their duties. In this case, the Naval Academy is an institution that has the function of forming prospective Indonesian Navy officers, including prospective Marine Corps officers who will later become leaders of the Marine Corps. Marine Corps cadets are required to be able to understand material in the field of military tactics, one of which is regarding tactics for certain conditions, namely war against guerrillas. The problems in this research are the lack of trainers and supporters in carrying out training, lack of facilities and infrastructure and lack of material received by cadets. The method used in this research is qualitative with management theory as a guide. The aim of this research is to optimize combat training against guerrillas with the aim of increasing the ability to overcome separatism for Marine Corps cadets so that after graduating from education they will become Dantons who are ready to be assigned to tackle the armed separatist movement. Based on the analysis that has been carried out, things that need to be optimized include increasing the number of trainers and supporters, updating facilities and infrastructure, using modern technology in carrying out training and establishing courses on counter-guerrilla warfare operations. The result of this research is an increase in the ability to deal with separatism of Marine Corps Cadets.

As an archipelagic country, Indonesia has the potential for abundant maritime resources which can be beneficial for the prosperity of society and the progress of the nation. Apart from bringing benefits, as a large maritime country with all its potential, it is vulnerable to the emergence of threats to national defense and security. In order to prevent all these threats, the Indonesian Navy as the main element of national defense at sea which has the duty and responsibility of upholding state sovereignty at sea must be able to utilize all potential at sea to become a defense force for the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. Binpotmar is something that must be developed jointly by the Indonesian Navy and related departments/agencies/agencies to prepare maritime defense forces, and be used as a force multiplier to support defense at sea. Binpotmar is a government obligation that must be socialized, taught and understood by all Indonesian people. For this education to be effective, Binpotmar must be implemented and given from an early age so that it is always embedded and developed for future generations to come. One form of education regarding Binpotmar can be provided through educational institutions, namely AAL. The Naval Academy (AAL) is the central implementing element in the TNI AL organizational structure and as the first educational institution for TNI Navy officers at academy level which aims to educate cadets to become TNI Navy officers who are responsive in academic matters, tough in personality, and tough in terms of physical fitness. as well as being firmly guided by the Sapta Marga, the 8 mandatory TNI, and the 8 mandatory TNI so that you can develop your personality as a reliable and respected leader of the Indonesian Navy.

The talent scouting program is an important strategy in recruiting and developing personnel to ensure that organizations, including the Indonesian Navy, have quality human resources and are able to face modern challenges effectively. This research aims to explore the effectiveness of talent scouting programs in the context of the Indonesian Navy to identify and develop potential talents. This research aims to evaluate the relationship between talent selection methods, information sources, supporting technology, and development programs on the quality of Indonesian Navy personnel recruited through the talent scouting program. This study uses a quantitative approach by analyzing data from 55 respondents involved in the Indonesian Navy's talent scouting program. Data was collected through surveys using structured questionnaires, and analyzed using statistical techniques such as simple linear regression to evaluate the relationship between the variables studied. The results of the analysis show that talent selection methods and information sources have a significant influence on the quality of Indonesian Navy personnel (beta coefficients 0.62 and 0.58, respectively, t = 3.75, p = 0.002 and t = 4.21, p = 0.001). However, assistive technology showed a less significant effect (beta coefficient = 0.35, t = 1.80, p = 0.087). The development program was found to have a significant positive impact on personnel quality (beta coefficient = 0.70, t = 4.55, p = 0.000). The regression results show that the overall model is significant (F = 6.21, p = 0.001), confirming the importance of the variables studied in improving the quality of Indonesian Navy personnel through talent scouting programs.  

This paper discusses the creation of a concept for the mechanism of using Corporate cards as a form of advance payment, aimed at supporting financial operations in Indonesian Navy ships (KRI) to ensure smooth processes in preparing ships for sailing. With the development of the Ministry of Finance regulations, the payment mechanism for Advance Payment has changed, divided into two proportions: cash and credit cards. This research is a qualitative study with a descriptive design. The research results suggest that the need for further testing and evaluation of the use of Corporate cards in the Indonesian Navy environment. The expected outcome of this research is to bring new innovations in following technological developments to facilitate, accelerate, and overcome obstacles in financial support processes for KRI. Additionally, the presence of Corporate cards is expected to address financial issues and prevent new problems from arising due to the misuse of corporate card facilities in supporting ministerial/agency interests and not being used for personal interests.
