Abstract
Paper discusses the "uniqueness" of naval warfare at the strategic, operational, and
tactical levels and from legal and cultural perspectives. Author concluded that naval
warfare has significant "unique" strategic cultural properties but that most of the
other differences can be found in other forms of combat, especially space and desert
warfare.
