Events of October 1962 indicated, as they had all through history, that control of the sea means security. Control of the seas can mean peace. Control of the seas can mean victory. The United States must control the seas if it is to protect your security… —President John F. Kennedy, 1963 35 th President of the United States
Chapter Sea Control As long as the sea is at our gates, North America will remain the last great island. Her strategy, if she is to win and survive, must be maritime…America’s safety and well-being depend in primary measure upon American ability to control and, even more important, to exploit control of the seas. 19 —Colonel Robert D. Heinl, USMC, 1962 Military Historian and Defense Journalist Background Throughout U.S. history, control of the sea has been a precursor for victory in war and prosperity in peace. Sea control is the essence of seapower—it allows naval forces to close within striking distance of land to neutralize land-based threats to maritime access, which in turn enhances freedom of action at sea and the resulting ability to project power ashore. The interrelationship between sea control and power projection mandates that the Naval Service possess capabilities and capacity to concurrently shape conditions in the maritime, space and cyberspace domains, sufficient to accomplish the Nation’s defense strategy. The vastness of the world’s oceans makes it impossible for the Naval Service to achieve global sea control. The combatant commanders’ operational objectives, the strategic maritime geography, and the capabilities of potential adversaries drive the scale of forward naval presence and surge capability necessary to conduct effective local and regional sea control operations. Such operations against a capable adversary cannot be wholly conducted from the sea—they will require the support of land-based aircraft for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR), undersea warfare, and aerial refueling. In this context, sea control operations are: Chapter Sea Control
