Core Subject : Education,
Jurnal Pertahanan is published quarterly in April, August and December, it aimed to provide research articles in order to have a significant implication to the world of defense strategy. The Journal's primary objective is to bridge the gap between theory and practice in defense studies. Every article contains empirical results, research methods, managerial implication and latest references from primary sources. The Journal is highly relevant to all professionals, directors, managers, entrepreneurs, professors, academic researchers and graduate students in the field of international defense strategy studies. Jurnal Pertahanan published articles on international defense strategy and defense managements. Topics with theoretical or practical appeal or a mixture of both.

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.
