This book explains both the strategic and the operational aspects
of exercising control of the sea. The struggle for sea control
consists of three mutually related and overlapping phases:
obtaining, maintaining and exercising sea control. It is in the
phase of exercising sea control when one's strategic or operational
success is exploited; otherwise, the fruits of victories achieved
would be wasted. This work describes the strategy of a stronger
side in wartime after a desired degree of control has been
obtained, which is followed by a discussion on the objectives and
main methods used in exercising sea control. The remaining chapters
explain and analyze in some detail each of the main methods of
exercising sea control: defence and protection of one's own and
destruction/neutralization of the enemy's military-economic
potential at sea, capturing the enemy's operationally important
positions ashore, destroying/weakening the enemy's
military-economic potential ashore and supporting one's ground
forces in their offensive and defensive operations on the coast.
This book will be of much interest to students of strategic
studies, sea power and naval history.
