Aye = Right, Yes.
So it means, "Affirmative Sir."

Aye aye is the affirmative response to an order. It means that you are going to obey and carry out the order. The affirmative answer to a question, as opposed to an order, is yes.
The sir part is a title of respect to your superiors in the military.

The first aye means that " I have heard it " and the second aye means " it is being carried out."

It also means "I well remember and do as I am ordered." The modern salute comes from the English Navels single knuckle to the forehead salute which meant, "I will keep my knuckle on my forehead so I can remember my latest order.) That salute evolved into the straight single-opened hand over the eyeball salute of the today's military.
