On Naval Theory, Milan Vego
On Naval Theory, Milan Vego
Naval War College Review
Too many naval officers mistrust, neglect, or even ignore the importance of naval theory, instead placing too much reliance on advanced technologies. Yet without full understanding of naval theory, it is very difficult to have the broad outlook necessary to develop naval doctrine, train one’s naval forces, and employ those forces successfully in a war.

“Confining The Enemy”—Halford Mackinder’S Theory Of Containment And The Conflict In Ukraine, Michael Hochberg, Leonard Hochberg
“Confining The Enemy”—Halford Mackinder’S Theory Of Containment And The Conflict In Ukraine, Michael Hochberg, Leonard Hochberg
Naval War College Review
Before George Kennan outlined his vision of containment, Halford Mackinder articulated a vision of maritime geostrategic logic that prioritized some geographic locations over others. Because Mackinder’s writings have been marshaled to assess the ongoing U.S. commitment to Ukraine, it is important to appreciate how his theory applies to the current crisis.
The Cuban Missile Crisis At Sea—Avoidance Of Nuclear War Not Left To Chance, Theodore Voorhees
The Cuban Missile Crisis At Sea—Avoidance Of Nuclear War Not Left To Chance, Theodore Voorhees
Naval War College Review
Many contradictions emerge from the nine published accounts of the confrontation between the Soviet submarine B-59 and American antisubmarine-warfare units during the Cuban missile crisis of October 1962. Assessing those accounts reveals that no participant should be anointed as “the man who saved the world,” and that the peaceful conclusion of the confrontation should not be attributed to good luck.
Smart Balancers Kill Many Birds With Few Stones—Sino-Russian Security Cooperation In The Maritime Domain, Maximilian Ernst, Tongfi Kim
Smart Balancers Kill Many Birds With Few Stones—Sino-Russian Security Cooperation In The Maritime Domain, Maximilian Ernst, Tongfi Kim
Naval War College Review
Minimizing the costs and risks of balancing is crucial for a coalition facing stronger opponents—such as China and Russia facing the United States and its partners. The motives of Sino-Russian security cooperation should be understood within the context of a full spectrum of balancing strategies in international relations and the relatively lower risk of escalation in the maritime domain.
The European Union’S Quest To Become A Global Maritime-Security Provider, Christian Bueger, Timothy Edmunds
The European Union’S Quest To Become A Global Maritime-Security Provider, Christian Bueger, Timothy Edmunds
Naval War College Review
The European Union (EU) seeks to become a global maritime-security actor, yet strategic challenges influence its maritime-security strategy process. Is there a distinctive and coherent EU approach to global maritime security, and how should the EU address the growing range of maritime challenges, including the intensification of militarized competition in the Indo-Pacific?
The Future Of Precision-Strike Warfare—Strategic Dynamics Of Mature Military Revolutions, John D. Maurer
The Future Of Precision-Strike Warfare—Strategic Dynamics Of Mature Military Revolutions, John D. Maurer
Naval War College Review
The precision conventional revolution, which yielded early U.S. military successes, is entering a more mature phase. Future great-power wars could tend toward protracted conflicts as superpowers seek to coerce each other without escalating to nuclear warfare. The proliferation and massing of precision conventional weapons may worsen such conventional military stalemates, with each side eviscerating the other’s power-projection capabilities.

Mahan’S Theory And The Realities Of The First World War—His Final Considerations On Sea Power, Kevin D. Mccranie
Mahan’S Theory And The Realities Of The First World War—His Final Considerations On Sea Power, Kevin D. Mccranie
Naval War College Review
Although Mahan’s commentary on World War I was constrained from August 1914 and he died in December, his understanding of naval strategy at the strategic level proved almost impeccable, and he made significant deductions about the newest technologies and their effects. His conclusions explain to a significant degree how the war developed in the years following his death.
Dilemmas Faced In Developing Small Navies, Andrzej Makowski
Dilemmas Faced In Developing Small Navies, Andrzej Makowski
Naval War College Review
Small navies face two important problems: the difficulty of acquiring the requisite financial resources and managing them properly, and the need to transform themselves so they can cooperate as parts of multinational teams. The latter aspect is the most important factor affecting their continued existence.
Tirpitz’S Trap, Jeremy Stocker
Tirpitz’S Trap, Jeremy Stocker
Naval War College Review
Chinese leaders probably believe that America’s worldwide commitments mean that the United States never will concentrate its entire naval strength against them in a conflict. But “Tirpitz’s Trap” serves as a warning of the consequences of challenging a maritime rival at sea while retaining the commitments inherent in a continental state with strategically significant land borders and powerful neighbors.
The Final Countdown?—Charting A New Course For Capital Ships In Pacific War Plans, Cameron M. Rountree
The Final Countdown?—Charting A New Course For Capital Ships In Pacific War Plans, Cameron M. Rountree
Naval War College Review
The Navy’s World War II fleet demonstrated that success came from employing the capital ship of the time—the battleship—collaboratively with aircraft carriers. Today, the Navy and the joint force should combine today’s capital ship—the aircraft carrier—with a reinvestment in surface and undersea platforms with extended-range standoff weapons.
Strategy, Uncertainty, And The China Challenge, Jeffrey W. Meiser, Renny Babiarz Phd, David Mudd
Strategy, Uncertainty, And The China Challenge, Jeffrey W. Meiser, Renny Babiarz Phd, David Mudd
Naval War College Review
Despite China’s increasing aggressiveness, its intentions are indeterminate, even aligning with U.S. interests in some arenas. Furthermore, China simply may fail in achieving even its foremost national and foreign-policy goals. Given this uncertainty, the United States should not base its policy and strategy on any specific prediction about Chinese intentions or abilities.

Putin’S Ukraine Invasion: Turbocharging Sino-Russian Collaboration In Energy, Maritime Security, And Beyond?, Andrew S. Erickson, Gabriel B. Collins
Naval War College Review
Putin’s war of choice in Ukraine will continue to send shock waves across the shores of maritime Asia for years, with unfolding impacts on ecosystems inhabited by oil barrels, gas pipelines, submarine technologies, jet engines, and basing access, within a context of a China-Russia relationship characterized over the centuries by cycles of fear, temporary bonds, and renewed division.
Nuclear Weapons In Russia’S War Against Ukraine, Stephen Blank
Nuclear Weapons In Russia’S War Against Ukraine, Stephen Blank
Naval War College Review
Western concern about Russian nuclear weapons’ potential deployment continues to suffuse policy responses to the Ukraine war, inhibiting relief efforts. Russia’s rhetoric and past exercises contribute to the pervasive Western belief that Russia might use nuclear weapons, including in a conflict that begins as a purely conventional war, to force its enemies to accept its terms.
Naval Considerations In The Russo-Ukrainian War, Seth Cropsey
Naval Considerations In The Russo-Ukrainian War, Seth Cropsey
Naval War College Review
Russia’s grand military strategy has a distinct maritime bent, the Ukrainian south coast is Russia’s most tangible strategic prize, and naval forces are crucial to holding it. Since the war’s beginning, Ukraine’s carefully planned strategy has applied stress to key elements of Russia’s maritime strategy, and Ukraine’s theory of victory is shaped by maritime considerations as thoroughly as Russia’s.
