Naval Expeditionary Operations in the 21st Century

Abstract

At the advent of the 21st century, the superior conventional capabilities of the United States military have inevitably set in motion a revolutionary change in the nature of warfare. As hostile countries can no longer directly engage the United States in a manner similar to the Iraqi campaign during the 1991 Gulf War, they are searching for alternative means to offset the sheer power of the United States. The United States must be ready to determine the nature of this new enemy and to implement innovative tactics, apply new weapons systems, and organize new force structures to meet this emerging threat successfully.
