This research aims to quantify the specialization stage of Indonesia, followed by the dependencies of Indonesia's imports on the aerospace sector. Since, there are still few studies about the aerospace sector, especially from an economic perspective. This research conducted to fulfill the gap studies on international trade aerospace sector phenomenon. The sample used in this research is 9 countries between 2001 – 2018. Methods will be conducted in two steps. First, by using Trade Specialization Index (TSI), we try to identify the specialization stage of each country in the aerospace sector. Second, we used Import Dependency Ratio (IDR) to identify the level of Indonesia's dependency in the aerospace sector on other countries. We found that Indonesia still reaching the introduction stage of specialization. Adding relevancy to the result, Indonesia is also considered as highly-dependent on other countries in terms of the aerospace sector. We therefore suggest that Indonesia needs to raise traction in the aerospace sector by increasing its budget and conducting technology transfers, so Indonesia’s competitiveness will raised.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk (1) mengetahui gambaran kondisi dan strategi pengembangan satelit operasional di negara ASEAN, (2) mengetahui faktor lingkungan strategis yang berpengaruh pada litbang satelit di Indonesia, dan (3) mengetahui kebutuhan akan pengembangan satelit operasional di Indonesia. Metode analisisnya menggunakan deskriptif analisis dengan melakukan benchmarking, analisa lingkungan strategis dan identifikasi kebutuhan satelit nasional. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa (1) latar belakang negara ASEAN memiliki satelit operasional sendiri untuk kepentingan prestise, kemandirian dan ilmiah; (2) faktor strategis yang mempengaruhi litbang teknologi satelit di Indonesia diantaranya keberadaan jasa peluncur internasional, keterbatasan slot orbit, pilihan untung rugi atas kepemilikan satelit sendiri atau leasing, dan supply chain bisnis keantariksaan; dan (3) kebutuhan pengembangan program satelit operasional nasional adalah berprinsip independence and self-reliance, dengan misi untuk pemantauan sumberdaya alam wilayah pesisir, daratan dan mendukung mitigasi bencana alam--satelit berukuran mikro berbasis SAR.
