Strategy and Missions of the Soviet Navy in the Year 2000,
Abstract
This report first deals briefly with some features of Russian naval development that have persisted over time, as well as some that have shown changes and fluctuations, especially those revealing regularities even in the process of change. Secondily it deals at greater length with trends in our own period, since the 1950's, drawing on evidence from allocations, capabilities, operations, and especially stated intentions. The final section covers project strategy and missions for the year 2000, bearing in mind past and current trends, pointing out areas where history is a very uncertain guide, and paying attention to requirements and limitations imposed from the political side, as well as purely naval requirements and the state of the art and technological potential for satisfying these requirements.
