Abstract

The strategic value of the Navy's submarine capabilities is greatly influenced by the ability of its supporting infrastructure to be able to maintain the confidentiality of submarine operations. Based on these conditions, this study aims to identify and analyze the operational readiness of submarines to increase the deterrence of the state defense system at sea. This study uses Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) and MIC-MAC diagrams. The ISM method is used to analyze the effect on the criteria. MICMAC diagrams are used as criteria for determining the related variables. Based on the results of the ISM and MICMAC diagram analysis, it was found that fifteen elements were divided into \(4\) (four) quadrants. Quadrant I (Autonomous) consists of six elements, such as \((C_1)\), \((C_2)\), \((C_3)\), \((C_4)\), \((C_{13)}\), \((C_{15})\). Quadrant II (Dependent) consists of six elements, such as \((C_5)\), \((C_6)\), \((C_7)\), \((C_{11})\), \((C_{12})\), \((C_{14})\). Quadrant IV (Independent) consists of three elements, such as \((C_8)\), \((C_9)\), \((C_{10})\). This research is expected to provide benefits to both academics and practitioners in the field of submarines and defense strategy.

Summary

Introduction

Introduction and PreliminariesA national defense system that has a deterrent power needs to be realized in the development of a defense force capable of protecting and ensuring the fulfillment of the national interests of the Indonesian nation (Ministry of Defence, 2015) [1]. The development of the naval force needs to be carried out strategically and effectively to achieve the desired deterrence [3]. One of the effective forces to build deterrence in the country’s defense strategy at sea is a submarine fleet. The strategic value of the Navy’s submarine capabilities is greatly influenced by the ability of its supporting infrastructure to be able to maintain the confidentiality of submarine operations. Infrastructure development supports the operational resilience of submarines in facing the limitations of the country’s capabilities. Based on these conditions, this study aims to identify and analyze the operational readiness of submarines to increase the deterrence of the state defense system at sea. MICMAC diagrams are used as criteria for determining the related variables
