Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of the counter-insurgency (COIN) strategy implemented by the Habema Operation Command of the Indonesian Armed Forces to counter the separatist movement of the Free Papua Organization and foster peace and security in Papua. The objective of this study is to assess how the strategy integrates military operations, socio-political engagement, and modern intelligence technology to support welfare development, as mandated by Presidential Instruction No. 9 of 2020. A qualitative case study approach was employed, using primary data from interviews with military personnel and secondary data from credible sources, analyzed through Galula’s COIN theory and Kilcullen’s three-pillar framework. The findings indicate that the Habema Operation Command effectively combines hard power (security operations) and soft power (social programs such as access to clean water and agricultural support) to reduce OPM influence and build community trust. However, challenges such as separatist propaganda and inter-agency coordination persist. The study recommends enhanced coordination, increased socio economic investments, and diplomatic efforts to counter international separatist narratives.

Abstract

Reliable and secure communication is a fundamental requirement for Medium-Altitude Long-Endurance (MALE) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) operations, where real-time data transmission must be maintained despite network instability. Internet-Protocol (IP)-based communication networks commonly used in UAV systems are susceptible to delay, jitter, and packet loss, which can degrade mission performance in surveillance and reconnaissance scenarios. This study investigates the capability of a Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) Virtual Private Network (VPN) to simultaneously enhance communication security and preserve network Quality of Service (QoS) for PUNA MALE UAV communications. A Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation environment implemented in GNS3 was developed to emulate realistic operational conditions. Network performance was evaluated using ICMP, TCP, and UDP protocols, with metrics including delay, jitter, and packet loss. Experimental results show that ICMP achieved an average jitter of 0.0879 ms with zero packet loss, while TCP demonstrated superior stability compared to UDP, which exhibited a packet loss rate of 1.9708%. The findings reveal that PPTP VPN deployment can maintain stable QoS performance while providing secure communication channels, indicating its feasibility as a lightweight security solution for UAV communication systems operating in controlled network environments. This work provides empirical evidence supporting the secure integration of VPNs for reliable MALE UAV data communication architectures.

Abstract

The Israel–Palestine conflict experienced a dramatic escalation following Hamas’s launch of the Al-Aqsa Flood Operation. The conflict triggered broader regional involvement through Iran’s network of allied forces known as the Axis of Resistance. This study analyzes Iran’s surrogate warfare strategy against Israel during the Palestine–Israel conflict from October 2023 to June 2025, focusing on how Iran externalizes the burden of war through proxy forces and technological means. A single-case study design with a qualitative approach was employed. Secondary data include statements from Iranian officials and Axis of Resistance actors obtained through official media channels, reports from think tanks, and international media coverage. Document analysis, content observation, and qualitative content analysis were conducted following Yin, (2018) framework. The study identifies four key dimensions of Iran’s surrogate warfare strategy: (1) delegation and outsourcing to non-state actors, including Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthi forces, and Iraqi resistance groups; (2) political efficiency achieved through plausible deniability while maintaining strategic influence; (3) multi-level contestation across military, diplomatic, and technological domains; and (4) a strategic shift from indirect confrontation toward a highly limited direct confrontation during the 12-day war in June 2025. Surrogate warfare enabled Iran to project power without direct involvement in the early stages; however, challenges of control and strategic blowback eventually forced limited direct military confrontation with Israel. Iran’s surrogate warfare represents an adaptive response to conventional military asymmetry but faces inherent limitations in controlling autonomous proxy actors and preventing unintended escalation. The transition to direct warfare in June 2025 indicates that surrogate strategies alone cannot address existential security threats, potentially reshaping the dynamics of regional conflict and the future applicability of indirect warfare doctrines.

Abstract

As a prominent maritime power in the Global South, Indonesia holds strategic potential to shape global maritime governance. Through the Global Maritime Axis (GMA) launched in 2014, Indonesia reaffirmed its commitment to safeguarding maritime stability. However, the existing GMA framework remains overly centered on traditional threats such as sovereignty protection and military defense, overlooking the growing impact of non-traditional challenges, particularly those related to climate change. To enhance its maritime resilience, Indonesia’s maritime security framework must evolve to incorporate the climate-security nexus. This study employs a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach to explore the interrelationship between maritime security and climate justice, drawing from nationally and internationally indexed literature. Findings underscore that the ocean's role in regulating the global climate necessitates inclusive, collaborative governance that transcends traditional boundaries. Climate justice, as a normative framework, demands the recognition of shared but differentiated responsibilities, especially for vulnerable maritime nations like Indonesia. Within the context of the Archipelagic and Island States (AIS) Forum, Indonesia has emerged as both an initiator and host, advancing principles of ocean collaboration, innovation, and sustainability. By reconceptualizing maritime security to include environmental protection, equitable resource governance, and marine biodiversity conservation, Indonesia can lead a transformative approach to climate justice. This repositioning enables Indonesia to protect its ecological and geopolitical interests while serving as a model for other developing maritime states. Ultimately, fostering climate resilience through maritime cooperation enhances regional stability and contributes meaningfully to global climate goals.

Abstract

The dynamics of the rivalry between China and the United States have significantly affected many countries, with both seeking to align other states with them. Both the United States and China seek to increase their influence amid geopolitical competition, including military cooperation with Indonesia. Following the question of how these two relationships have developed over time, we present a quantitative analysis of the evolution, trend, and variations of international military cooperation with both China and the United States. With that in mind, this study developed an original index, the International Military Cooperation Intensity (IMCI) Index, to measure military cooperation between Indonesia and the two countries from 1995 to 2014 in the areas of arms transfers and bilateral joint military exercises. The findings from the IMCI Index show that while Indonesia has increasingly strengthened its military cooperation with the United States, it has simultaneously strengthened its relationship with China. While our findings confirm the assumption that the United States remains Indonesia’s stronger partner, they also show Indonesia’s increasing military cooperation with China during this period. This result, using these two quantitative indicators, increases our understanding of Indonesia's evolving military cooperation with both countries during this period. In addition, the methodological approach used in this study demonstrated the usefulness of constructing an index to show trends, evolution, and variation in examining international relations events such as international military cooperation.

Abstract

Economic stability is closely linked to the condition of security, particularly in regions where investment and sectoral development are still evolving. While previous studies tend to examine defense expenditure as a single determinant, limited attention has been given to how defense interacts simultaneously with investment and key economic sectors in shaping regional economic growth. This study explores the dynamics of economic growth in Eastern Indonesia by incorporating defense, investment, and selected sectoral variables into a unified analytical framework. A quantitative approach is applied using secondary data processed through panel data regression with EViews 13. The dataset consists of balanced panel data from 10 provinces over a ten-year period, generating 100 observations. The results reveal that defense, agriculture, and industrial sectors contribute significantly to economic growth. In contrast, the fisheries sector does not demonstrate a measurable impact despite the region’s strong maritime characteristics. Similarly, investment does not show a statistically significant effect, indicating the presence of structural constraints that limit its effectiveness. These findings highlight that regional growth in Eastern Indonesia is not solely driven by resource availability, but also by how strategic sectors are managed and integrated.

Abstract

Aviation dentistry is a specialized field that addresses oral and maxillofacial health in environments subject to significant changes in atmospheric pressure, particularly during flight. Barodontalgia, a form of dental pain triggered by such pressure fluctuations, can adversely affect pilots' performance, potentially impairing mission success. This narrative review critically assesses the necessity of preflight dental evaluations for military fighter pilots as a preventive measure against barodontalgia-related in-flight complications. A comprehensive literature search covered PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar and included studies published between 2020 and 2025. A total of 55 records were identified, and 23 studies were included in the final qualitative analysis. Findings indicate that barodontalgia is often precipitated by pre-existing dental conditions, such as untreated caries, pulpitis, and unstable restorations, which become exacerbated under high-altitude pressure changes. Fighter aircraft commonly operate at altitudes between 45,000 and 51,000 feet, with rapid pressure fluctuations that can significantly worsen dental symptoms. Despite the recognition of barodontalgia’s operational impact, preflight dental assessments are not routinely integrated into current aeromedical protocols. The review recommends formalizing a Dental Requirements Document as part of military preflight checks, which should include comprehensive dental health evaluations and history assessments. Such a protocol could mitigate the risk of dental emergencies during flights and enhance operational safety by ensuring dental readiness before missions.
