Summary/Abstract |
Swiftships competes in global markets for smaller naval ships. The company has delivered 13 120-foot coastal patrol boats to the Iraqi navy under a 15-ship contract and has a long-term agreement with the Egyptian navy to co-produce 25-foot patrol boats in Egypt. It also has built ships to support offshore drilling operations for U.S. and international oil and natural-gas companies.

Summary/Abstract |
Land-sea wars" have significant maritime dimensions, with command of the sea posited by this study as mattering more than either [land combat] skill or strength. . . . [C]ommand of the sea is a preeminent form of power that determines the outcome of land-sea conflicts.
JOHN ARQUILLA
In a February 2012 article published in the American Interest, General Norton A. Schwartz, Chief of Staffof the U.S. Air Force, and Admiral Jonathan W. Greenert, Chief of Naval Operations, provide solid justification for more closely integrating Air Force and Navy capabilities into an Air-Sea Battle strategy.1 We applaud the Air-Sea Battle component as the most effective means of preparing for the most challenging conflict-full-scale conventional war

Summary/Abstract |
St Petersburg: In India, warnings are seldom taken seriously. Even disasters that follow the warnings are usually accepted with a sense of philosophical fatalism. So, for whatever it is worth, here is a warning from the Rubin Design Bureau of Russia which has designed the Kilo class submarines, 10 of which the Indian Navy operates: Two Indian submarines are past their service life and the third one is quickly on the way. Anything can happen to these boats and the responsibility will be of the Indian Navy.

Summary/Abstract |
When it comes to the much-discussed concept, misconceptions abound; the first thing to fix may be the nomenclature itself.
If there were a first rule of Air-Sea Battle (ASB), it should be: "Do not talk about Air-Sea Battle." The cloud of confusion and criticism surrounding the concept is undermining this Department of Defense 21st-century warfare initiative. When the world's only superpower announces something called "Air-Sea Battle ," the rest of the world listens, and the DOD must get it right. Failure to correct current misunderstandings about the idea could lead to unintended and unwanted consequences counter to U.S. strategic interests. It is time for Air-Sea Battle 2.0, and step one is changing the name.

Summary/Abstract |
Despite Western skepticism, all signs point to a Chinese navy that is skillfully tackling surface-force maintenance challenges.
In 2013, the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) commissioned 17 new battle force surface ships. 1 These units continue the transition of the PLAN surface order of battle from smaller, Soviet-pattern warships to modern, multi-mission platforms capable of extended deployments. As impressive as these vessels appear, naval professionals are acutely aware that platforms and payloads only represent real capability if they are functioning and available for rigorous training and real-world operations. Modern and sophisticated combatants present complex maintenance challenges that must be addressed if their technological advances are to be anything more than promise and potential.

Summary/Abstract |
The author consider the potential of cultural misunderstanding to have an adverse effect on the type of operations in which we are now, and are likely to be in the future, involved. The propose that a new type of training, much of it in the matter of attitudes as well as in specific skills, should be given serious consideration.

Summary/Abstract |
The proliferation of transportation-related technology and maritime users has created an opportunity to provide mariners with a whole new way of operating. U.S. waterways are shared by people who have a wide range of experience, training, and technology, from licensed commercial operators with years of experience, electronic charts, global positioning systems (GPS), radios, and radar, to unlicensed recreational boaters venturing on the water for the first time with little more than a handheld foghorn and a cellphone. While this diversity creates an imbalance that can threaten everyone's safety, all mariners have knowledge that could benefit the well-being of all if effectively shared in real time.
The real-time sharing of maritime operators' individual knowledge, combined with other sources of relevant information, creates an enhanced state of situational awareness we call "mariner situational awareness." This is the tactical cousin of "maritime domain awareness," which has come to represent a more strategic, wide-area, and therefore less time-critical awareness of the vast maritime domain. In today's complex maritime operating environment, rife with both safety and security risks, it is critical that we develop a system where maritime situational awareness is synchronized and shared across the full expanse of maritime users.

Summary/Abstract |
A vessel based on the national security cutter could offer significant benefits to the Navy.
W hile O liver Hazard Perry- class frigates are not the only platforms you would want for a serious confrontation, they are great independent-deployers and effective at a multitude of missions such as escort operations and antisubmarine warfare (ASW). As the Navy decommissions the last 15 frigates, soon to be joined by 21 Ticonderoga- class cruisers, we will call on our existing hulls to support their ongoing missions. There is little doubt the littoral combat ship (LCS) fills some of this void, but even the top brass seem to agree that it's ineffective in a high-endurance, blue-water setting.
In January, a report from the Pentagon described a plan to cut the amount of LCSs from 52 to 32 ships, and in a leaked classified memo, Commander of Naval Surface Forces Vice Admiral Tom Copeman called for a new type of multi-mission ship. 1 Many envision a new combatant ship that incorporates air- and missile- defense radar and an electromagnetic railgun. While it is imperative that the Navy build these types of ships, a multibillion-dollar warship juggernaut is simply unnecessary when a new, cost-effective frigate could effectively accomplish the same missions.
Of the many potential frigate designs, Huntington Ingalls Industries offers one derived from its successful national security cutter (NSC) hull dubbed the "patrol frigate," originally intended and modeled for international navies. At first, it may seem preposterous to paint a Coast Guard cutter gray and call it a warship. In the July 2013 issue of Proceedings , Norman Polar opined that more frigates were needed, but was quick to dismiss a patrol frigate as a viable option. He claimed it "lacked growth potential and service life, as well as certain military features." 2 But tweaking the NSC could turn it into a viable candidate that meets the Navy's needs.

Summary/Abstract |
An important reason that the Navy relies on the analytic community is to help it anticipate change and provide recommendations on how to deal with it. One of the ways we do this is through analyzing past events and the Navy's responses to them, teasing out what worked and what didn't, and then seeing if there are lessons to be learned for the present and future. Often there are, yielding recommendations to Navy decision-makers and their staffs.
