It should see the threat in an entirely new way. It should not rely solely on the notion that the mobility of ships at sea is adequate defense against this threat in the era of asymmetric conflict. The Navy should look well beyond passive defenses to understand the full contours of a CW or BW defense posture. It must plan on the basis of a risk-management approach and train and test to refine its TTPs.27... [Pg.40]
