<![CDATA[The utilization of Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) represents a technological development that can support underwater operations through observation, monitoring, and information-gathering capabilities. The effectiveness of UUV utilization is influenced not only by the capabilities of the equipment but also by operator competence in operating and utilizing the system appropriately. This study aims to analyze the effect of UUV utilization and operator competence on the effectiveness of special naval warfare operations conducted by Kopaska. This study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method involving 50 respondents with relevant experience in UUV utilization and operational activities. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination. The results indicate that UUV utilization has a positive and significant effect on operational effectiveness, with a regression coefficient of 0.487 and a significance value of 0.000. Operator competence also has a positive and significant effect, with a coefficient of 0.329 and a significance value of 0.004. The F-test produces a value of 38.726 with a significance value of 0.000, while the R Square value of 0.624 indicates that both variables explain 62.4% of the variation in operational effectiveness.]]>
