INTRODUCTION The North Natuna Sea has significant strategic and economic importance because its existence positions Indonesia as an archipelago with strategic control over important trade routes in Southeast Asia. The North Natuna Sea is known as an area that is very vulnerable to illegal fishing due to the huge potential of fisheries resources and its location on the border with international waters so that foreign fishermen can easily enter Indonesian waters (Juanita & Setiani, 2022. Situmorang et al. , 2. Throughout 2020 - 2022 there were 162 violations of the sea border area and in 2023 there were at least 14 incidents of warship contact in the North Natuna Sea area (Indonesian Navy Staff of Operation. Fleet Command I, 2. The North Natuna Sea has significant strategic and economic importance because its existence positions Indonesia as an archipelago with strategic control over important trade routes in Southeast Asia. The North Natuna Sea is known as an area that is very vulnerable to illegal fishing due to its huge potential fishery resources and its location on the border with international waters, making it easy for foreign fishermen to enter Indonesian waters (Gunawan et al. , 2022. Suhanto & Putri, 2. Throughout 2020-2022 there were 162 violations of the sea border area and in 2023 there were at least 14 incidents of warship contact in the North Natuna Sea area (Indonesian Navy Staff of Operation. Fleet Command I, 2. Based on Article 7 paragraph 2, sub point 4. Law Number 34 of 2004 concerning the Indonesian National Army, it is explicitly written that the TNI's duty is to secure border areas. To overcome territorial violations in the North Natuna Sea, the Indonesian Navy has conducted Sea Combat Standby Operations and North Natuna Sea Security Operations involving various kinds of Indonesian Warships (KRI), helicopters, and maritime patrol aircraft. For KRI, the Navy deployed 2 Fregate type ships and 2 Corvette type ships (Indonesian Navy Staff of Operation. Fleet Halaman 106 METHOMIKA: Jurnal Manajemen Informatika & Komputerisasi Akuntansi Vol. 9 No. 1 (April 2. Command I, 2. (Manumoyoso, 2. As for maritime patrol aircraft, the Navy deployed CN235220 MPA and NC212-200 MPA aircraft (Sops Puspenerbal, 2. On the other hand. Indonesian Coast Guard also prepared 7 units of High-Speed Craft (HSC) patrol vessels with a length of 15 meters and a width of 3. 3 meters to strengthen security in the North Natuna Sea (Novarina, 2. However, the operation costs a lot of money and is not enough to be able to patrol thoroughly. One of the problems related to patrols in the North Natuna Sea is the limited budget available to provide fuel oil logistics (Nirmala Maulana Achmad, 2. The North Natuna Sea region is shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Research Area in the North Natuna Sea Based on this background, the use of autonomous vehicle systems as an assistance option for patrolling the North Natuna Sea. This is based on several things such as lower operational costs of autonomous vehicles or not using fuel oil (Bauk et al. , easier organization and maintenance (Klein, 2. , more consistent performance (McCullough et , 2. , and high monitoring and data analysis capabilities (Mahapatra et al. , 2. In recent years, autonomous vehicle (AV) technology has developed rapidly, offering great potential for various sectors, including defense and security. Autonomous vehicles are vehicles that can operate without direct human intervention, using advanced technologies such as sensors, algorithms, and navigation systems to control the vehicle autonomously (Xu et al. , 2. Among the various types of autonomous vehicles, there are Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV), and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV). Each of these types of autonomous vehicles has the potential to provide efficient solutions for surveillance and patrolling of territories. Faced with efficiency. Autonomous Vehicle operational costs that ISSN: 2598-8565 . edia ceta. ISSN: 2620-4339 . edia onlin. tend to be cheaper accompanied by not too significant costs in their procurement are advantages in For comparison, the cost incurred by the government in procuring warships results in a cost value equivalent to 10 autonomous vehicles (National & Press, 2. Of course, faced with Indonesia's defense budget, which is less than 1% of Indonesia's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) (Surahman et al. , the use of AV is one alternative that greatly helps reduce the costs incurred by the state in protecting the border area in the waters of the North Natuna Sea. The application of autonomous vehicles in patrolling Indonesia's marine territory can be part of the effort to strengthen Indonesia's position as a maritime With lower operational costs, the ability to operate for longer periods of time, and high flexibility, autonomous vehicles can increase the effectiveness of patrols and surveillance and strengthen the overall security of Indonesia's marine border areas (Aliyah et , 2024. Slamet et al. , 2. Along with ongoing technological developments, autonomous vehicles have great potential to become an integral part of Indonesia's modern and effective sea defense system. By considering the potential of Autonomous Vehicle technology, this research aims to provide strategic solutions to improve the effectiveness of surveillance and defense in the North Natuna Sea. Specifically, the research objectives are: Determine the main priorities of Autonomous Vehicles used in supporting the sea patrol system (National & Press, 2. and determine the criteria and sub-criteria of Autonomous Vehicle capabilities that are most suitable for dealing with geographical conditions in the North Natuna Sea region (Adi et al. , 2.

Other factors such as data security . , sensor system . , and navigation . also play a role in ensuring the operational effectiveness of autonomous vehicles in detecting border threats. The main obstacle in marine patrols in the North Natuna Sea region is the limited budget for operational warships and maritime patrol aircraft. With 162 territorial violations . and 14 warship contacts . , a more cost-effective solution is needed to maintain maritime sovereignty. UAVs offer a more economical alternative to warships and manned aircraft, enabling wider surveillance without heavy reliance on fuel and human resources.

The evaluation of internal and external factors in the patrol system enables the selection of the most suitable AV technology for the geographical conditions and security challenges in the North Natuna Sea. and the integration of UAVs with AUVs and USVs can be a long-term strategy in strengthening Indonesia's marine surveillance system. By utilizing advanced sensor technology and integrated communication systems, autonomous vehicles can improve the effectiveness of early detection and response to threats at the border. As technology develops, the use of AVs in the maritime defense sector could become an integral part of Indonesia's defense system modernization, enabling the country to safeguard its sovereign waters more efficiently and adaptively to regional security challenges.
