presence of military drones in supervision or attack operations. The next question
in terms of using the drones while carry weapon should be critically addressed by
the law and enforcement mechanism to avoid bad consequences in the future. Such
legal and ethical dilemmas constantly threaten their wide use, including trust in the
advantages of such technologies.
Every drone form could raise issues about its safety and security that are likely
to increase with the exponential use of drones. It has been stated, for instance, that
UAVs intervene with civil aviation, purposely and accidentally travel over sensitive
areas such as nuclear plants or even injure people if their remote pilot loses control
[12]. Nonetheless, it is possible to confuse the difference between a military drone
and commercial drones since not each military drone carries weapons; most military
drones can be used in many respects, for war, trade, and arts purposes including.
Drone debates would also benefit from more comprehensive drone type research
and guidance. A simpler, more detailed definition will render certain developments
in drone technology more recognizable and therefore allow for greater openness,
oversight, and inspection than is the case today, which are critical to drone adoption
and legitimacy.
Although unmonitored patrols are of major importance, many obstacles still lie
ahead. Originally, consideration should be given to capabilities shortcomings of base
stations. For every specified station to be properly utilized, the UAV number cannot
be below a lower limit, while the upper limit of restrictions on military ranks is unfair.
It is also unrealistic to surpass a cap [13]. Provided that several base stations should
be set up to ensure compatible operations, both the number and the location of the
base stations must be optimized. In the meantime, UAV flight paths should also be
designed jointly. These are all variables that reduce the overall cost, which makes
the problem more complicate. It is likely to be making wrong decisions sooner or
later.
1.3 Methodology
1.3.1 Research Design
In the qualitative method, the design usually uses interviews as a method to collect
primary data. There is various preparation required by a researcher in preparing the
questions as they need to be a tailor with the research field to ensure it fulfills the
scope and objective of the research. Other than that, searching from Internet websites
and making reading from journals, articles, and others are also part of the qualitative
method [14]. For this research, the interviews involved the navy officer at the Lumut
base, specifically officers from the KD Mahawangsa that cover sea area operation.
Thus, they are officers from the fleet operations command west (FOC) department.
