Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Navy, accustomed since WW II to unequivocal dominance at sea, struggled in the 1970s with the pressures brought about by rapidly advancing technology, the obsolescence of large numbers of WW II ships, and a vigorous challenge at sea from a Soviet navy growing in strength and confidence. This has continued into the 1980s. It is nowhere more evident than in that category of warships known as surface combatants -- cruisers, destroyers, and frigates. Looking ahead to the late 1980s and early 1990s, the Navy faces a substantial drop in the surface combatant force level as the ships delivered in the late 1950s and early 1960s reach retirement age. At the same time, the challenge posed by the forces of potential adversaries has continued to grow. In addressing this challenge, several related questions must be considered: * How large a surface combatant force will the Navy have in the 1990s? * How might recent technological developments affect the likely role of future surface combatants? * Given these technological developments, and alternative views of naval strategy, what mix of surface combatants might be considered within whatever budget level the Congress selects? These questions are the focus of this paper.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent remarkable changes in world politics have demanded a redefinition of the role of the United States in the international community. In this book naval analyst James L. George makes a penetrating assessment of the U.S. Navy in the post-Cold War era and offers a likely scenario of options and opportunities over the next decade and beyond. Following a helpful look at the Navy's development since World War II, Dr. George stresses the importance of mission analysis and shows that the service is likely to play a more central role in nuclear deterrence. He believes that an added responsibility will be placed on the Navy for European and Atlantic defenses, and that its already significant involvement in Third World operations may grow. Extensive base closings around the world will necessarily limit the effectiveness of the other services, increasing the importance of naval presence and readiness in what will remain a volatile Third World theater. In light of altered missions, Dr. George closely analyzes force composition and the roles of naval aircraft, surface combatants, and submarines, as well as the continuing need for a blue water navy. He does not ignore the Marines, explaining how continuing drawdowns across the military spectrum may enhance their importance. The author considers the lessons learned from Desert Shield and Desert Storm; he also probes the unknowns of naval arms control and several so-called New World paradigms. Dr. George's vision entails not just less of the same, but a significant reconfiguration of U.S. naval forces and missions into the twenty-first century. It is must reading for all those interested in the Navy's future.

Book excerpt: This thesis examines the developing capabilities of the Indian surface combatant force. The emergence of a powerful Indian Navy is of concern to the United States in view of the strategic importance of the Indian Ocean region and its potentially related effects on Western Pacific maritime security. This study examines the history, current and future capabilities of, and the political and industrial support for the Indian surface combatant fleet. Current and future Indian naval strategy is examined and intelligence indicators are presented to assist in determining the intent behind India's naval expansion. Finally, the implications of a capable Indian surface force for U.S. policy are examined and policy recommendations postulated.

This book was released on 2012-05-27 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This illustrated history covers the history of the U.S. Navy in the Middle East. America's interests in the Middle East, southwest Asia, and eastern Africa date almost to the founding of the nation. Since World War II, the Navy has been the first line of defense for these interests. From the establishment of the Middle East Force (MEF) in 1949 through the beginning of the 21st century, the U.S. Navy served as a force for stability and peace in the region. The Navy's presence helped prevent regional crises from escalating into wars, enforce international sanctions, and minimize damage done by regional conflicts to American and allied interests. The work concentrates on the Navy's command relationships, roles and missions, and operations in the period leading up to the First Gulf War, the war itself, and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.The Naval Historical Center completed this illustrated history of U.S. Naval Forces Central Command/Fifth Fleet to accompany the exhibit it installed in the headquarters building on board Naval Support Activity Bahrain. In keeping with the Center's mission of supporting the operating forces, the purpose of this book is to inform visitors to the headquarters and American Sailors serving in the Middle East about the Navy's presence in Arabian waters and the variety of missions the Navy has conducted there, in peace and in war. From the presidency of George Washington through the beginning of the Cold War, Americans have forged and maintained ties with the peoples of the Middle East. These bonds strengthened in 1949 with the establishment of the Middle East Force and a permanent U.S. naval presence in the Arabian Gulf. They grew even stronger when America committed itself to the defense of its friends in the region, establishing Central Command and its naval component, Naval Forces Central Command, in 1983. The United States Navy remains an anchor of resolve in promoting peace, stability, and prosperity in the Central Command area of responsibility. The author, Dr. Robert J. Schneller Jr., is well qualified to present this informative and well-illustrated history. He is co-author of a book on the Navy's role in operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm, and since 9/11 has been researching and writing about the Navy's role in the Global War on terrorism. As with each of our histories, the views expressed herein are those of the author alone and not those of U.S. Naval Forces Central Command/Fifth Fleet, the Department of the Navy, or any other U.S. government agency.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's rapidly developing military capabilities have forced US policy makers to reconsider their own military infrastructure. The primary concern of this book is to examine how China's military modernisation will be factored into decisions about US Navy programs. Several elements of China's military modernisation have potential implications for future required US Navy capabilities. These include theatre-range ballistic missiles (TBMs), land-attack cruise missiles (LACMs), anti-ship cruise missiles (ASCMs), surface-to-air missiles (SAMs), land-based aircraft, submarines, surface combatants, amphibious ships, naval mines, nuclear weapons, and possibly high-power microwave (HPM) devices. This book will examine how these elements and others will influence the future of the United States Navy.
