Maritime strategy and defence of the archipelagic inner arc

REEVE John

Maritime strategy and defence of the archipelagic inner arc - Canberra: Australia Sea Power Centre, 2001 - 19p. - Sea Power Centre working paper no 5 .

Argues that Australia's strategy of defending the northern archipelagic arc (Indonesia to the Solomons) is, in its current form, flawed and potentially dangerous. Recommends changes including a focus on maritime as an operational environment rather than a "service area".
