Study of Land suitability using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a way to determine the location for many fields, including in the defense field. The Sunda Strait is part of the international shipping route where there are several cases of international smuggling in this region, so that it becomes a concern for Indonesia defense. The concept of marine defense by applying Radar is something must be done at this time. Over The Horizon (OTH) Surface Radar is a type of High-Frequency (HF) radar with a detection distance that goes beyond the earth horizon. Research on OTH Surface Radar Placement is something that can be done at this time, considering Indonesia has not applied it at this time. The method used in this study is to determine the best placement by comparing the parameters of two types of OTH Surface Radar that have been used in other countries to determine the criteria of placement parameters. The analysis process will use the Analysis Hierarchy Process (AHP) by determining the importance of the parameters for OTH Surface Radar Land Suitability. The GIS process is carried out using the Overlay method which is used to determine the suitability based on a matrix of geographic parameters obtained between weight and class. The result is one suitable location to be the main area in the placement of OTH Surface radars for defense in the Sunda Strait located in the district of Pulo Merak, Serang Regency.
