The Submarine, 1776–1918, Frank Uhlig Jr.

Naval War College Review

It developed slowly, then grew swiftly, triumphed astoundingly, and failed decisively.


Space Wei Qi—The Launch Of Shenzhou V, Joan Johnson-Freese Apr 2018

Space Wei Qi—The Launch Of Shenzhou V, Joan Johnson-Freese

Naval War College Review

Whether the United States chooses to return to the moon, go on to Mars, or something in between or beyond, it is not just where that is important, but how. To a large extent, how will involve implicitly or explicitly responding to the first Chinese manned space flight, on 15–16 October 2003. The United States can continue to exclude China from cooperative space efforts, commence a new manned-space-flight race, or initiate an incremental program of space cooperation including the Chinese. The interests of the space program and of the nation would be best served by cooperation.


Stalin’S Big-Fleet Program, Milan L. Hauner Apr 2018

Stalin’S Big-Fleet Program, Milan L. Hauner

Naval War College Review

In the 1930s, Joseph Stalin undertook to build one of the world’s largest navies, a Soviet fleet of battleships and battle cruisers. He did so in the face of well known impediments and shortfalls of geography, finances, and industrial capacity and capability—and in the absence of an obvious and compelling strategic rationale. Why?


A Tale Of Two Fleets—A Russian Perspective On The 1973 Naval Standoff In The Mediterranean, Lyle J. Goldstein, Yuri M. Zhukov Apr 2018

A Tale Of Two Fleets—A Russian Perspective On The 1973 Naval Standoff In The Mediterranean, Lyle J. Goldstein, Yuri M. Zhukov

Naval War College Review

Newly available Russian sources suggest that the superpower naval confrontation during and immediately after the 1973 Arab-Israeli War was more dangerous than has been generally appreciated, and that the Soviet Navy had made remarkable progress in correcting the deficiencies revealed in the Cuban missile crisis only a decade before. The episode is a cautionary case study for the U.S. Navy, which today has another “upstart” navy to consider.


Change And Continuity—The U.S. Coast Guard Today, Thomas H. Collins Apr 2018

Change And Continuity—The U.S. Coast Guard Today, Thomas H. Collins

Naval War College Review

The year 2003 was a watershed for today’s Coast Guard. The Coast Guard’s roles as a military service, as a federal law-enforcement agency, as a regulatory authority, and as a member of the new Department of Homeland Security place it squarely at the center of national initiatives to reduce security risks to our nation.

Net-Centric Before Its Time—The Jeune École And Its Lessons For Today, Erik J. Dahl Apr 2018

Net-Centric Before Its Time—The Jeune École And Its Lessons For Today, Erik J. Dahl

Naval War College Review

The main caution that the story of the Jeune École offers for advocates of network-centric warfare and American defense transformation is not that they may be wrong in their assessments but that they may be right, too early.


Raeder Versus Wegener—Conflict In German Naval Strategy, Kenneth P. Hansen Apr 2018

Raeder Versus Wegener—Conflict In German Naval Strategy, Kenneth P. Hansen

Naval War College Review

German naval thought between the world wars was defined by a dispute between two distinguished officers: one who critiqued German naval performance in the conflict just ended, the other obliged to meet the very different realities of the war to come. Neither was wholly wrong or entirely correct; the disagreement produced concepts that mark naval doctrine today.


Maritime Terrorism In Southeast Asia—The Abu Sayyaf Threat, Rommel C. Banlaoi Apr 2018

Maritime Terrorism In Southeast Asia—The Abu Sayyaf Threat, Rommel C. Banlaoi

Naval War College Review

The Abu Sayyaf group, originally devoted to the establishment of a radical Islamic state in the Philippines through terrorism, has been fragmented and reduced to banditry by the Philippine military response. Nonetheless, especially by virtue of its inherent maritime capability, it is an important part of the maritime terrorist threat facing Southeast Asia.


Come The Revolution—Transforming The Asia-Pacific’S Militaries, Richard A. Bitzinger Apr 2018

Come The Revolution—Transforming The Asia-Pacific’S Militaries, Richard A. Bitzinger

Naval War College Review

The Asia-Pacific militaries are making impressive strides in modernization, but modernization and transformation are not the same thing. What is impeding their progress in fully implementing the revolution in military affairs? Do they need to do that? What will happen if they do not?


Why Doesn’T America Have A Nelson?—Does It Need One?, James Holmes Apr 2018

Why Doesn’T America Have A Nelson?—Does It Need One?, James Holmes

Naval War College Review

The U.S. Navy has yet to produce a commander who can equal Nelson’s combination of war-fighting excellence, personal gallantry, and public prominence. Whether the Navy can produce one today, absent a powerful rival on the high seas, is doubtful at best.

From Here To There—The Strategy And Force Planning Framework, P. H. Liotta, Richmond M. Lloyd Apr 2018

From Here To There—The Strategy And Force Planning Framework, P. H. Liotta, Richmond M. Lloyd

Naval War College Review

Today’s decisions about strategy and force planning fundamentally influence future strategy and force posture. A proposed “Strategy and Force Planning Framework” may help planners and strategists ask the right questions, appreciate complex dynamics, and address in a comprehensive way the important factors present in strategic decision making.
