Description: A category of military art called naval operational a rt exists in the Soviet Union. For the      Soviets the art is the scientific skill of planning and conducting the interlinked engagements,      strikes, and maneuvers that comprise the modern naval operation. The Soviets exercise naval      operational art according to principles of the art which the Soviets emphasize with a stiff      formalism that can be exploited by the West. This study describes the art and its style and      suggests Soviet naval war fighting scenarios based on the application of the principle of naval      operational art. (fr)
