Война на море: Актуал. проб. развития воен.-мор. науки

Should a military conflict begin now, it would be a war of the sixth generation, which can not be understood and strategized in traditional terms such as: front line, formation, home front and rear, and other concepts of a contact war. According to the author, the future war will be conducted with the help of high-precision long distance means of destruction. What should the place of the fleet be in this kind of war, and of the fleet in the Russian military forces? This book answers both questions and introduces a new military doctrine and a corresponding new approach to balanced development of the fleet. I. Kapitanets (b. 1928) was the first assistant to the commander in chief of Russian forces in 1988-1992, the author of several books on military theory and history, including In Service to the Ocean Fleet: 1946-1992: Notes of the Chief Commander of Two Fleets (2000)(Available).
