‎United States Navy Office of Naval Intelligence‎

‎Iranian Naval Forces; A Tale of Two Navies‎

‎Washington DC: United States Navy Office of Naval Intelligence 2017. Presumed First Edition First printing thus update of 2009 publication. Wraps. Very good. 42 2 pages including covers. Poster inside back cover. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Iran's defense strategists recognize the growing importance of the maritime environment and are shaping its naval forces to secure Tehran's interests accordingly. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy IRGCN emphasizes an asymmetric doctrine to ensure national security in the Persian Gulf against regional neighbors and foreign presence. The Islamic Republic of Iran Navy IRIN dubbed by the Supreme Leader as a strategic force employs a more conventional doctrine and focuses on forward presence and naval diplomacy. Its mission areas include the Caspian Sea the Gulf of Oman and out-of-area operations. Both navies have considerable equities and are well positioned to influence and leverage the Strait of Hormuz; a vital chokepoint for the flow of resources and international commerce. During Iran's navies have been supplemented by its other military branches through acquisition of air-launched cruise missiles and antiship ballistic missiles. These developments are a clear indication that Iran understands the growing importance of controlling the maritime environment in its security calculus. Over the past several years Iran staged a major naval exercise that blatantly featured attacks directed against a mock-up of a U.S. Nimitz-class aircraft carrier. Iran also employed its navies in an attempt to reinforce Huthi rebels in Yemen and to interdict the merchant vessel Maersk Tigris in the Strait of Hormuz. Each of these events serves as a reminder that Iran's navies are capable of churning the waters of the Persian Gulf and beyond. As Iran continues to hone its naval strategy and modernize its respective fleets this capability will only improve creating greater challenges to security in an already security-challenged region.

‎Blue Angels; 35th Anniversary Year 1981‎

‎United States Navy Blue Angels 1981. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Wraps. Very good. 55 1 pages. Illustrations some in color. The Blue Angels is the United States Navy's flight demonstration squadron with aviators from the Navy and Marines. The Blue Angels team was formed in 1946 making it the second oldest formal flying aerobatic team under the same name in the world after the French Patrouille de France formed in 1931. The Blue Angels' six demonstration pilots currently fly the McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet typically in more than 70 shows at 34 locations throughout the United States each year where they still employ many of the same practices and techniques used in their aerial displays in their inaugural 1946 season. An estimated 11 million spectators view the squadron during air shows each full year. The Blue Angels also visit more than 50000 people in a standard show season March through November in schools and hospitals. Since 1946 the Blue Angels have flown for more than 260 million spectators. As of November 2011 the Blue Angels received $37 million annually out of the annual DoD budget. During their aerobatic demonstration the Blues fly six F/A-18 Hornet aircraft split into the Diamond Formation Blue Angels 1 through 4 and the Lead and Opposing Solos Blue Angels 5 and 6. Most of the show alternates between maneuvers performed by the Diamond Formation and those performed by the Solos. The Diamond in tight formation and usually at lower speeds 400 mph performs maneuvers such as formation loops rolls and transitions from one formation to another. The Solos showcase the high performance capabilities of their individual aircraft through the execution of high-speed passes slow passes fast rolls slow rolls and very tight turns. The highest speed flown during an air show is 700 mph just under Mach 1 and the lowest speed is 120 mph. Some of the maneuvers include both solo aircraft performing at once such as opposing passes toward each other in what appears to be a collision course and mirror formations back-to-back. belly-to-belly or wingtip-to-wingtip with one jet flying inverted. The Solos join the Diamond Formation near the end of the show for a number of maneuvers in the Delta Formation. United States Navy, Blue Angels paperback‎

‎Warfighting; FMFM 1 Fleet Marine Force Manual 1‎

‎Washington DC: United States Marine Corps 1989. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Trade paperback. Good. 4 88 pages. Notes. Rear cover is worn and soiled with a mailing label present. Pencil erasure residue on first page. This document describes the philosophy of General A. M. Gray Commandant of the Marine Corps. It is the Marine Corps' doctrine and as such provides the authoritative basis for how the Marine Corps fights and how it prepares to fight. This book is easy to read and is not intended as a reference manual. It is designed to be read cover to cover. There is a natural progression to its four chapters. Chapter 1 describes our understanding of the characteristics problems and demands of war. Chapter 2 derives a theory about was based on that understanding. This theory in turn provides the foundation for how we prepare for war and how we wage war chapters 3 and 4 respectively. In 1989 the United States Marine Corps published the document Fleet Marine Force Manual 1 Warfighting. Its appearance signaled the official adoption of maneuver warfare as the Corps's organizational philosophy and the basis of its doctrine for preparing and conducting operations. Beginning in 1979 Marine Corps officers engaged in an intraservice debate over the issue of maneuver warfare a new concept that began to circulate among military reformers in the latter half of the 1970s. The intellectual transformation of the Marine Corps involved three main mechanisms. The first was a theoretical mechanism centered on public debate to introduce and defend maneuver warfare to Marine audience. The second was a functional/practical mechanism that involved educational and training initiatives at the Amphibious Warfare School and Camp Lejeune. The third mechanism was the use of authority of General A. M. Gray. United States Marine Corps paperback‎

‎Washington DC: United States Department of the Navy Office of the Chief of Naval Operations Aviation Training Division 1945. Presumed First Edition First printing. Hardcover. Good. 143 1 pages. Illustrations some with color. Tables. Graphs. Charts. Glossary. Approximately 8.25 inches by 10.75 inches format. Cover has wear and soiling. About a two inch tear to cover cloth at bottom back of the spine. Name in ink inside front cover. Stamped number at bottom of fep. From the Foreword: Modern military missions with their demand for precision flying at all times and under all conditions cannot wait for daylight - or CAVU ceiling and visibility unlimited. The pilot who cannot fly through instruments therefore consigns himself and his plane to a part-time job and places both in the premodern era where usefulness was limited by the amount of daylight and visibility. A pilot's usefulness in this age is almost proportional to his ability to fly through instruments. With the advent of the first flight-indicating instrument flying cased to be strictly by contact. With the addition of each new flight-indicating instrument flying by visual reference to the ground or the horizon became less important and less used until today it's instrument flying or else! And that is what it will be tomorrow. With the array of accurate and reliable instruments that are now standard equipment in all modern planes flight is effective precise and successful under all conditions. These servants of flight attitude and performance are yours to command and to use if you will but you must understand what they tell you and learn how to use them. This manual reflects the state-of-knowledge the state-of-practice and the state-of-the-art during the final phases of the Second World War. It addresses bombing missions evasive action and carrier take-offs and other operations.

‎Military Operations on Urban Terrain; MCI 0366B‎

‎Marine Barracks Washington DC: Marine Corps Institute 2004. Later printing. Wraps. Good. Various paginations approximately 180 pages. Illustrations. Unit exercises. Review Lesson answered by former owner. Bibliography. This is intended for use by private through gunnery sergeant in MOS 0300. The Marine Corps Institute commonly referred to as MCI developed and maintained a curriculum of Marine Corps education. Subjects included infantry strategy/tactics leadership skills MOS qualifications personal finance and mathematics. Completion of MCI courses was generally required for promotion to the next Marine enlisted rank. Founded in part by then-Col. John A. Lejeune since February 1920 the Marine Corps Institute facilitated the training and education of individual Marines. MCI ensured access to products and provided opportunities to improve performance to enhance Professional Military Education and to provide promotion opportunity together with sponsors of Marine Corps education and training programs. As a tenant company of the Marine Barracks Washington MCI also coordinated and executed the Hosting and Parade Escort plan for the Evening and Sunset Parades. It provided ceremonial Officers and NCOs for the Parade Staffs and other assigned ceremonies in order to promote the Marine Corps heritage and to enhance the Marine Corps image to the general public. MCI company also maintained individual MOS and Battle Skills proficiency both in garrison and field environments to prepare the individual Marine for combat. The Marine Corps Institute was located at the historic Washington Navy Yard in Washington D.C. S.E. Military Operations on Urban Terrain MOUT are not new to the US military. Throughout its history soldiers have fought an enemy on urban terrain. What is new is that urban areas and urban populations have grown significantly during the late twentieth century and have begun to exert a much greater influence on military operations. The worldwide shift from a rural to an urban society and the requirement to transition from combat to stability and support operations and vice-versa have affected the US military's doctrine. It is estimated that by the year 2010 seventy-five percent of the world's population will live in urban areas. The increased population and accelerated growth of cities have made the problems of combat in built-up areas an urgent requirement for the US military. Urban areas are expected to be the future battlefield and combat in urban areas cannot be avoided. The acronym MOUT Military Operations on Urbanized Terrain is defined as all military actions that are planned and conducted on a terrain complex where man-made construction affects the tactical options available to the commander. Urban combat operations may be conducted in order to capitalize on the strategic or tactical advantages which possession or control of a particular urban area gives or to deny these advantages to the enemy. Major urban areas represent the power and wealth of a particular country in the form of industrial bases transportation complexes economic institutions and political and cultural centers. The denial or capture of these centers may yield decisive psychological advantages that frequently determine the success or failure of the larger conflict. Villages and small towns will often be caught up in the battle because of their proximity to major avenues of approach or because they are astride lines of communications that are vital to sustaining ground combat operations. These operations are conducted to defeat an enemy that may be mixed in with civilians. Therefore the rules of engagement ROE and use of combat power are more restrictive than in other conditions of combat. Marine Corps Institute paperback‎

‎Navy Day Program; Washington Navy Yard October 21 1941‎

‎Ephemera. Good. 16 pages including covers. Color Illustrated front cover. Format is approximately 4.5 inches by 6.5 inches staplebound. Cover has some wear and soiling. In the United States the Navy League of the United States organized the first Navy Day in 1922 holding it on October 27 because it was the birthday of President Theodore Roosevelt who was a naval enthusiast. Although meeting with mixed reviews the first year in 1923 over 50 major cities participated and the United States Navy sent a number of its ships to various port cities for the occasion. The 1945 Navy Day was an especially large celebration with President Harry S. Truman reviewing the fleet in New York Harbor. In 1949 Louis A. Johnson secretary of the newly created Department of Defense directed that the U.S. Navy's participation occur on Armed Forces Day in May although as a civilian organization the Navy League was not affected by this directive and continued to organize Navy Day celebrations as before. In the 1970s the "birthday" of the Continental Navy was found to be October 13 1775 and so CNO Admiral Elmo R. Zumwalt worked with the Navy League to define October 13 as the new date of Navy Day. However Navy Day in the United States is still largely recognized as October 27. This was the last Navy Day celebrated in Washington D. C. before the Japanese attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor and the country entered the Second World War. This event was held at Fairlawn Park Anacostia D. C. and commenced at 8:30 a.m. and the last listed event Colors on the field commenced at 5:14 p.m. The Program includes a section on Laws relating to the United States Flag and the Flag code. Among the events of the day were: Navy Band Weapon Demonstration Catapulting Battleship Observation Plane Guard Mounting Drum and Bugle Corps Deep Sea Diving Crilley Tactical Flying Demonstration Machine Gun Platoon Exercise Drill Chemical Warfare Defense Bugle Calls Coast Guard Life-Saving Demonstration of Infantry Weapons Parachute Platoon Jump Dive Bombing Strafing Landing Operation and Bombing Attack. unknown‎

Radar electromagnetic sensor used for detecting locating tracking and recognizing objects of various kinds at considerable distances. It operates by transmitting electromagnetic energy toward objects commonly referred to as targets and observing the echoes returned from them. The targets may be aircraft ships automotive vehicles and astronomical bodies or even birds insects and rain. Besides determining the presence location and velocity of such objects radar can sometimes obtain their size and shape as well. What distinguishes radar from optical and infrared sensing devices is its ability to detect faraway objects under adverse weather conditions and to determine their range or distance with precision. Radar underwent rapid development during the 1930s and '40s to meet the needs of the military. It is still widely employed by the armed forces where many technological advances have originated. At the same time radar has found an increasing number of important civilian applications notably air traffic control weather observation remote sensing of the environment aircraft and ship navigation speed measurement for industrial applications and for law enforcement space surveillance and planetary observation. Radar typically involves the radiating of a narrow beam of electromagnetic energy into space from an antenna see the figure. The narrow antenna beam scans a region where targets are expected. When a target is illuminated by the beam it intercepts some of the radiated energy and reflects a portion back toward the radar system. Since most radar systems do not transmit and receive at the same time a single antenna is often used on a time-shared basis for both transmitting and receiving. A receiver attached to the output element of the antenna extracts the desired reflected signals and ideally rejects those that are of no interest. For example a signal of interest might be the echo from an aircraft. Signals that are not of interest might be echoes from the ground or rain which can mask and interfere with the detection of the desired echo from the aircraft. The radar measures the location of the target in range and angular direction. Range or distance is determined by measuring the total time it takes for the radar signal to make the round trip to the target and back see below. The angular direction of a target is found from the direction in which the antenna points at the time the echo signal is received. Through measurement of the location of a target at successive instants of time the target's recent track can be determined. Once this information has been established the target's future path can be predicted. In many surveillance radar applications the target is not considered to be "detected" until its track has been established. U.S. Government Printing Office paperback‎

‎Washington DC: U. S. Government Printing Office 1985. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Wraps. Very good. Various Paginations approximately 80 pages. Illustrations. References. Index. Two hole punched. Staple-bound. Cover has some wear and soiling. The Beretta M9 officially the Pistol Semiautomatic 9mm M9 is a 9�19mm Parabellum pistol adopted by the United States Armed Forces in 1985. It is essentially a military specification Beretta 92FS. The M9 won a competition in the 1980s to replace the M1911A1 as the primary sidearm of the U.S. military beating many other contenders and only narrowly defeating the SIG P226 for cost reasons. It officially entered service in 1990. Some other models have been adopted to a lesser extent namely the M11 pistol and other models remain in use in certain niches. The M9 was scheduled to be replaced under a United States Army program the Future Handgun System FHS which was merged with the SOF Combat Pistol program to create the Joint Combat Pistol JCP. The JCP was renamed Combat Pistol CP and the number of pistols to be bought was drastically cut back. The U.S. Army and Air Force are seeking to replace their M9s through the Modular Handgun System program. In the 1970s every branch of the U.S. Armed Forces except the U.S. Air Force carried the .45 ACP M1911 pistol. USAF opted to use .38 special revolvers which were also carried by some criminal investigation/military police organizations USAF strategic missile ICBM officer crews and by military flight crewmembers across all the services when serving in combat zones or when engaged in nuclear weapons duties. The Department of Defense then decided to synchronize the weapons of all five branches of U.S. forces. The ground combat branches of the services found this decision highly contentious but was meant to eliminate the need to buy replacements for worn out M1911 frames and to establish a common NATO pistol round to simplify logistics in case of war with the Soviet Union in Europe. In 1979 the Joint Service Small Arms Program began searching for a replacement for the venerable M1911 and the 9�19mm Parabellum round was selected for compliance with the NATO Standardization Agreement STANAG. In 1980 the Beretta 92S-1 design was chosen over entries from Colt Smith & Wesson Walther the Star M28 and various Fabrique Nationale and Heckler & Koch models. The result however was challenged by the US Army and new tests were done by the Army. In 1984 the trials started again with updated entries from Smith & Wesson Beretta SIG Sauer Heckler & Koch Walther Steyr and Fabrique Nationale. Beretta won this competition but there was a new trial the XM10 competition in 1988. This resulted in two different trials that were more limited but resulted in the Beretta being chosen albeit with an updated design. Concurrent to the pistol selection process beginning in 1979 the Bianchi International holster company began its development of a multi-function military holster to be ready for the issuance of a new pistol. This holster - designed by John Bianchi and Richard Nichols - has served the U.S. Armed Forces well for decades designated the M12 was adopted simultaneously with the adoption of the Beretta 92F in 1985. The Beretta 92F survived exposure to temperatures from 40 to 140 �F 40 to 60 �C being soaked in salt water being dropped repeatedly on concrete and being buried in sand mud and snow. Additionally the 92F proved a MRBF mean rounds before failure of 35000 rounds. That number is often touted as the equivalent to five or six times the pistol's service life. While this is normally true in European militaries armed forces of the United States normally subject sidearms to much more extensive use. The Iraq War which featured frequent urban and room-to-room combat has required American soldiers to rely more heavily on their pistols. The M9 is a short recoil semi-automatic single-action / double-action pistol that uses a 15-round staggered box magazine with a reversible magazine release button that can be positioned for either right- or left-handed shooters. The M9 is used with the Bianchi M12 Holster though other holsters are often used. The specific modifications made from the Beretta 92 includes: � Design of all the parts to make them 100% interchangeable to simplify maintenance for large government organizations. � Modified the front of the trigger guard so that one could use finger support for easier aiming. � Recurved the forward base of the grip to aid aiming. � Hard chromed the barrel bore to protect it from corrosion and to reduce wear. � New surface coating on the slide called Bruniton which allegedly provides better corrosion resistance than the previous plain blued finish. It also has an enlarged hammer pin that fits into a groove on the underside of the slide. The main purpose is to stop the slide from flying off the frame to the rear if it cracks. This was in response to reported defective slides during U.S. Military testing. The M9 features multiple internal safeties including a firing pin block that prevents the firing pin from moving without the trigger being pulled and a firing pin striker that rotates when the safety lever is engaged preventing the firing pin from being hit even if the hammer falls. The M9 also has an ambidextrous external safety lever allowing both left and right handed people to engage or disengage the safety mechanism. U. S. Government Printing Office paperback‎

‎The Russian Navy; A Historic Transition‎

‎Washington DC: Office of Naval Intelligence 2016. Revised Edition. Trade paperback. Good. xx 44 plus fold-outs. Maps. Illustrations color. Rear cover has a small edge tear. The Office of Naval Intelligence ONI is the military intelligence agency of the United States Navy. Established in 1882 primarily to advance the Navy's modernization efforts ONI is the oldest member of the United States Intelligence Community and serves as the nation's premier source of maritime intelligence. Since the First World War its mission has broadened to include real-time reporting on the developments and activities of foreign navies; protecting maritime resources and interests; monitoring and countering transnational maritime threats; providing technical operational and tactical support to the U.S. Navy and its partners; and surveying the global maritime environment. ONI is headquartered at the National Maritime Intelligence Center in Suitland Maryland. In an era of rapid industrialization globalized commerce and colonial expansion the prevailing military theory of the time held that navies were critical to the commercial and strategic interests of a nation as well as a source of national prestige and power projection. American naval officers and military strategists advocated for a larger and more technologically advanced navy that could protect the U.S.' vast maritime borders safeguard its commercial interests and project power abroad. The leading reformers called for the creation of a naval intelligence office dedicated to gathering information on foreign navies and the latest in naval science to help rebuild the U.S. Navy. Cleared for public release by Defense Office of Prepublication and Security Review DOPSR Case 16-S-0274. The Russian Navy lit. Military-Maritime Fleet of the Russian Federation is the naval arm of the Russian Armed Forces. The present Russian Navy was formed in January 1992 succeeding the Navy of the Commonwealth of Independent States which had itself succeeded the Soviet Navy following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991. The regular Russian Navy was established by Peter the Great Peter I in October 1696. Ascribed to Peter I is the oft quoted statement: "A ruler that has but an army has one hand but he who has a navy has both." The symbols of the Russian Navy the St. Andrew's ensign seen to the right and most of its traditions were established personally by Peter I. Neither Jane's Fighting Ships nor the International Institute for Strategic Studies list any standard ship prefixes for the vessels of the Russian Navy. For official U.S. Navy photographs they are sometimes referred to as "RFS"-"Russian Federation Ship". However the Russian Navy itself does not use this convention. The Russian Navy possesses the vast majority of the former Soviet naval forces and currently comprises the Northern Fleet the Russian Pacific Fleet the Russian Black Sea Fleet the Russian Baltic Fleet the Russian Caspian Flotilla Naval Aviation and the Coastal Troops consisting of the naval infantry and the Coastal Missile and Artillery Troops. A rearmament program approved in 2007 placed the development of the navy on an equal footing with the strategic nuclear forces for the first time in Soviet and Russian history. This program covering the period until 2015 expected to see the replacement of 45 percent of the inventory of the Russian Navy. Out of 4.9 trillion rubles $192.16 billion allocated for military rearmament 25 percent will go into building new ships. "We are already building practically as many ships as we did in Soviet times" First Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Ivanov said during a visit to Severodvinsk in July 2007 "The problem now is not lack of money but how to optimize production so that the navy can get new ships three not five years after laying them down." The Russian Navy suffered severely since the dissolution of the Soviet Union due to insufficient maintenance lack of funding and subsequent effects on the training of personnel and timely replacement of equipment. Another setback is attributed to Russia's domestic shipbuilding industry which is reported to have been in decline as to their capabilities of constructing contemporary hardware efficiently. Some analysts even say that because of this Russia's naval capabilities have been facing a slow but certain "irreversible collapse". Some analysts say that the recent rise in gas and oil prices has enabled a sort of renaissance of the Russian Navy due to increased available funds which may allow Russia to begin "developing the capacity to modernize". In August 2014 Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said that Russian naval capabilities would be bolstered with new weapons and equipment within the next six years in response to NATO deployments in eastern Europe and recent developments in Ukraine.

‎Annopolis MD: The United States Naval Institute 1970. Reprint. New issue of 1802 ed. Hardcover. Very good. No dust jacket. Cover has slight wear soiling and sticker residue. 6 36 8 p. Incldues Notes on Early Naval Regulations. Facsimile copy. The facsimile was made from the personal copy of Commodore Edward Prebble of Barbary War fame. From Wikipedia: "United States Navy Regulations is the principal regulatory document of the Department of the Navy not just the United States Navy endowed with the sanction of law as to duty responsibility authority distinctions and relationships of various officials organizations and individuals. Navy Regulations are issued by the Secretary of the Navy and are permanent regulations of general applicability as opposed to other regulations that he or she may issue in accordance with law. The Navy Regulations serve in effect much as a vehicle of implementation of Title 10 of the United States Code as it pertains to the Naval Services. However Navy Regulations do not take legal precedence over any order or directive issued by either the President or Secretary of Defense or of an Act of Congress. The Chief of Naval Operations is responsible for maintaining the Navy Regulations and for ensuring that they conform to the current needs of the Department of the Navy. Other directives issued within the Department of the Navy may not conflict with alter or amend any provision of Navy Regulations. Any additions changes or deletions to the U.S. Navy Regulations must be approved by the Secretary of the Navy. Navy Regulations began with the enactment by the Second Continental Congress of the "Rules for the Regulation of the Navy of the United Colonies" on November 28 1775. The first issuance by the United States Government which covered this subject matter was "An Act for the Government of the Navy of the United States " enacted on March 2 1799. This was followed the next year by "An Act for the Better Government of the Navy of the United States." " The United States Naval Institute hardcover‎

‎Washington DC: United States Government Printing Office 1937. Presumed first edition/first printing. Hardcover. Good. 6 57 1 p. Includes illustrations. Stamp of former owner inside front cover. Cover has some wear and soiling. From Wikipedia: "The Bureau of Construction and Repair BuC&R was the part of the United States Navy which from 1862 to 1940 was responsible for supervising the design construction conversion procurement maintenance and repair of ships and other craft for the Navy. The bureau also managed shipyards repair facilities laboratories and shore stations. On 20 June 1940 Congress passed a law which consolidated the Bureau's functions with those of the Bureau of Engineering BuEng creating the Bureau of Ships BuShips. The Bureau was staffed by officers of the Construction Corps called constructors with advanced degrees in naval architecture. Six civilian constructors were hired by the Navy in 1794 to supervise construction of the frigates authorized by Congress that year. The Bureau of Construction Equipment and Repairs was established in 1842 as one of the five original material bureaus replacing the former Board of Navy Commissioners. In 1862 Congress decided to replace the Bureau into three new organizations: the Bureau of Construction and Repair the Bureau of Steam Engineering later called the Bureau of Engineering and the Bureau of Equipment. The Bureau of Construction and Repair was established by Congress by an act of July 5 1862 12 Stat. 510. The new organization headed by a Chief of the Bureau was responsible for all aspects of ship construction except for propulsion systems which were the responsibility of the Bureau of Engineering; and equipage which fell under the Bureau of Equipment. The Construction Corps was created in 1866 to be staffed by constructors graduated from the United States Naval Academy cadet-engineer curriculum implemented in 1864. Naval constructors gained the rank and recognition previously available to doctors of the Medical Corps and pursers of the Supply Corps." United States Government Printing Office hardcover‎
