Analisis Keberadaan Pc - 40 Kelas Pari Dan Dorang, Bagian Kepanjangan Tangan TNI Angkatan Laut Untuk Menegakkan Kedaulatan Negara Di Laut

Abstract

State sovereignty at sea is an inseparable part of state sovereignty in general, where the 
Indonesian Navy is the main component responsible for it. In order to strengthen its 
capabilities in this field, the Indonesian Navy is developing its strengths, including by building 
various Fast Patrol Ships (PC) that prioritize the Increased Use of Domestic Products (P3DN) 
in their production process. This is important for the independence and sustainability of 
national security and defense enforcement activities at sea without having to depend on and 
be influenced by other countries that produce ships of the type in question. The PC-40 is one 
of the types that is produced in large numbers to strengthen patrol capabilities between 
regions throughout the archipelago. Currently, at least 19 elements of the KRI PC-40 Pari and 
Dorang Class have been successfully produced by various national shipyards, which are 
distributed to various patrol units under the auspices of the Indonesian Navy Main Base 
(Lantamal), and there are an important component of the Indonesian Navy in upholding the 
state at sea.
