| Summary/Abstract |
This article explores the development of tactical thought in the Royal Navy during the period leading up to the First World War, and concludes that the direction of tactical thinking and Admiralty construction policy contradict claims put forward by Jon T. Sumida that in 1912 Admiral Sir John Jellicoe developed a ‘technical-tactical synthesis’ that called for fighting at medium ranges (7,000–10,000 yards).

| Summary/Abstract |
The article offers information on Chinese cruise missiles, the production rate for which is increasing every year. Possible Chinese naval deployment of a long-range land-attack cruise missile may be compared with the initial U.S. Navy deployment of Tomahawks aboard surface ships, including battleships, in the 1980s Chinese may plan to use their cruise missiles in the way the Tomahawks are used to hit particular precision targets from unexpected axes.
