A Private Security Solution To Somali Piracy?—The U.S. Call For Private Security Engagement And The Implications For Canada, Christopher Spearin
A Private Security Solution To Somali Piracy?—The U.S. Call For Private Security Engagement And The Implications For Canada, Christopher Spearin
Naval War College Review
Recently expressed U.S. interest in encouraging commercial shippers to rely on private security companies against pirates is a matter of concern, both in practical terms and in fundamental terms of “who does what” at sea.
The Canadian Navy And Canada’S National Interests In This Maritime Century, Dean Mcfadden
The Canadian Navy And Canada’S National Interests In This Maritime Century, Dean Mcfadden
Naval War College Review
Adversaries have learned to integrate the warfare traditions of Clausewitz and Mao Zedong and to organize all means of violence—criminal, irregular, and conventional—to achieve their political ends. There are important implications in this for Canada’s maritime forces, including the fundamental capacity to fight and prevail in combat at sea against a potentially far broader and more comprehensive range of threats than ever before.
Talking About Sea Control, Robert C. Rubel
Talking About Sea Control, Robert C. Rubel
Naval War College Review
For two decades the U.S. Navy has enjoyed total command of the sea, so much so that it has stopped talking about sea control, even to the extent of forgetting how to. The time has come to rediscover the discipline, yet again.
Programs Vs. Resources—Some Options For The Navy, Ronald O’Rourke
Programs Vs. Resources—Some Options For The Navy, Ronald O’Rourke
Naval War College Review
If the U.S. Navy’s budget does not increase in real terms, the prospect over the longer run is for a fleet with advanced capabilities for performing missions but too few ships and aircraft to perform them simultaneously in all desired areas. Policy makers addressing this situation could face difficult choices among options that present feasibility challenges or have their own potential downsides.

Pieces Of Eight—An Appraisal Of U.S. Counterpiracy Options In The Horn Of Africa, Lesley Anne Warner
Naval War College Review
The key to success against piracy off the coast of Somalia lies in linking current sea-based counterpiracy methods with approaches designed to remedy the underlying instability ashore that produced piracy in the first place.
The U.S. Navy’S Transition To Jets, Robert C. Rubel
The U.S. Navy’S Transition To Jets, Robert C. Rubel
Naval War College Review
In this centennial year of naval aviation, it is interesting to observe that it has been jet powered for over half of its history. The transition was long and brutally expensive in terms of life and aircraft. However, it was, by any measure, a success.
Arctic Security Considerations And The U.S. Navy’S Roadmap For The Arctic, David W. Titley, Courtney C. St. John
Arctic Security Considerations And The U.S. Navy’S Roadmap For The Arctic, David W. Titley, Courtney C. St. John
Naval War College Review
The scope and magnitude of changes to the Arctic region as a result of a changing climate are great—shifts in species populations and distribution, more navigable transportation passages, increased shipping activity and resource extraction, and modified global circulation patterns. The Navy’s Task Force Climate Change is addressing these considerations, which will shape safety and security in the Arctic.

The Republic of Korea Navy has made itself one of the most notable navies in the region. Challenges and issues still exist, but there are important areas in which it and the capable Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force can cooperate in the future.

Dewey At Manila Bay—Lessons In Operational Art And Operational Leadership From America’S First Fleet Admiral, Derek B. Granger
Dewey At Manila Bay—Lessons In Operational Art And Operational Leadership From America’S First Fleet Admiral, Derek B. Granger
Naval War College Review
Admiral George Dewey, his great victory at Manila Bay over a century ago, and even the Spanish-American War receive little attention, from either historians of naval warfare or its practitioners. But the nature of the challenges he faced, how he approached them, and how his career had prepared him to succeed so well are in fact highly relevant to the U.S. Navy’s present environment.
Operations Assessment In Afghanistan Is Broken—What Is To Be Done?, Stephen Downes-Martin
Operations Assessment In Afghanistan Is Broken—What Is To Be Done?, Stephen Downes-Martin
Naval War College Review
The operations assessments process in Afghanistan is untrustworthy and places at risk the credibility of commanders who support its products. But regional commanders have the authority and means to fix it.
Why Operations Assessments Fail—It’S Not Just The Metrics, Jonathan Schroden
Why Operations Assessments Fail—It’S Not Just The Metrics, Jonathan Schroden
Naval War College Review
In any military campaign it is necessary to measure how well one is doing; in unconventional, counterinsurgency warfare, measuring progress is especially difficult; and in Afghanistan, the attempt to do so is doing more harm than good, and for fundamental reasons.
Three Disputes And Three Objectives—China And The South China Sea, Peter Dutton
Three Disputes And Three Objectives—China And The South China Sea, Peter Dutton
Naval War College Review
The complex disputes of the globally important South China Sea sort themselves into three categories, each with its own parties, rule sets, and politics. Unfortunately, states are pursuing win-lose solutions to all three, when win-win problem solving based on mutuality and commonality of interests is necessary and possible.
Sea Basing—Concept, Issues, And Recommendations, Sam J. Tangredi
Sea Basing—Concept, Issues, And Recommendations, Sam J. Tangredi
Naval War College Review
In a flat or shrinking defense budget, resources for the joint capability of sea basing will become contentious. However, a prudent strategy for the United States in uncertain times is to balance long-range capabilities based in the continental United States with highly maneuverable and well defended sea bases.
The Future Of The Future Of Aircraft Carriers, Robert C. Rubel
The Future Of The Future Of Aircraft Carriers, Robert C. Rubel
Naval War College Review
As the geopolitical, technological, and budgetary environments change, the question of whether aircraft carriers will still be needed, and if so of what kind and how many, becomes urgent. The best way to approach it is in terms of how they are actually used and how they could be.
