'Monaghan and Connolly's edited volume is a foundational first step to understanding the history and future of Russian naval and maritime strategy.'
International Affairs

'a highly detailed, nuanced analysis of Russian naval history, strategic thinking, operational concepts, naval capabilities (both current and future), naval industrial capacity, wider Russian sea power, and the implications.
The Sea in Russian Strategy needs to be read widely, especially by those who need to understand the nature of the Russian threat, and is particularly recommended.'
The Naval Review

' This edited collection offers a view of Russian maritime strategies and the policies affecting both contemporary and future Russian interests. The authors focus on the contemporary and future aspects of Russia's navel strategy and capacities, giving special attention to the Arctic region as an economic opportunity for acquiring natural resources.'

'As Russia continues to test global security, this excellent book provides a very timely contribution to our understanding of Moscow's maritime capability and intent. The sea has always been a crucial domain to any power with global ambition. This extremely well-considered and authoritative collection provides an informed baseline to re-examine our understanding of this critical area of warfare, test our assumptions and challenge our planning and decision making.'
Admiral Sir Tim Fraser, KCB, Vice Chief of Defence Staff, 2019-22

'This book is valuable for two reasons. Firstly, it allows us to compare the Russian strategy and shipbuilding plans described here with the real-world application of Russian strategy in Ukraine. Secondly, it reveals that while the Russian army and air force have been seriously bloodied in the Ukraine war, the bulk of the navy is more dangerous than ever, due to Kaliber land-attack cruise missiles and long-range strikes.'
Admiral James G. Foggo III, Dean of the Center for Maritime Strategy in Washington, DC and Former Commander of United States Naval Forces Europe-Africa -- .
