Summary/Abstract |
Increasing tensions across the Taiwan Strait have prompted many strategists to debate the nature of China’s amphibious warfare capabilities. While it is often noted that Beijing’s armed forces lack major, recent experience in that domain, this research reveals that Chinese strategists have undertaken intensive and systematic investigation of foreign experiences, including with respect to the most classic cases, such as the Normandy invasion. This study represents a first attempt to survey such Chinese strategic writings, in an effort to better understand the lessons that Chinese strategists take from these foreign campaigns. Themes that emerge from this Chinese literature include an emphasis on undersea warfare capabilities as a critical enabler for amphibious invasion, but an even greater prominence for air supremacy. The most persistent theme in this Chinese literature surrounds intelligence preparation, deception and, above all, surprise. Such findings have important policy implications for Asian security.

Summary/Abstract |
Sea basing is a strategic concept that has been defined in a variety of often contradictory ways. It is officially a joint concept, but it is widely perceived as a parochial tool to justify budget increases for the Department of the Navy. As an
activity, sea basing has been described as both traditional and transformational.
1
Many proponents consider it a specific set of hardware-future platforms, such
as the mobile offshore base or additional ships for the Maritime Prepositioning
Force (MPF), like the proposed Mobile Landing Platform, which would allow
for selective off-load of prepositioned material while still at sea.
2
A misperceived
exclusive association with amphibious warfare, not currently a priority in the
Pentagon, has largely driven sea basing out of policy discussions at the Office of
the Secretary of Defense (OSD) level. Ironically, sea basing came to prominence
in the past decade under a Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) determined to cut
capabilities from the amphibious fleet so as to fund future surface combatants.

Summary/Abstract |
It is usually maintained that before 1914 the Royal Navy had abandoned interest in amphibious warfare. This article argues otherwise. It shows that prior to 1914 the Admiralty sought to reconfigure the Royal Marines as an organic maritime strike force. The idea was advanced by junior officers and taken up by the naval leadership, who appointed a high-level committee to elaborate the details. Significant steps had been taken before war broke out, thereby showing that modern British amphibious warfare doctrine pre-dates the ill-fated Gallipoli operation and needs to be understood in a broader context than is currently the case.
