Anti-Submarine Warfare on the Continental Shelf

Abstract

The Soviet submarine threat off the east coast of the United States is a joint service problem and requires a joint service effort to combat the threat. When the Army or Air Force officer is sitting in Europe waiting for his supplies and men from the states and the Navy officer says there are Soviet submarines on the continental shelf, he needs to understand the basics of the problems the Navy and Coast Guard are having. This paper is written not to make Air Force and Army officers experts in Anti-Submarine Warfare, but to make them aware of a real world problem that could disrupt the forward deployed war fighting strategy of all the services.
