Sommario/riassunto

"Investments in amphibious capabilities by U.S. partners and allies in the Asia Pacific is altering the range of capabilities available in that

This study examines ally- and partner-nation investments in amphibious capabilities, how those capabilities will impact demand for U.S. forces, and the range of U.S. amphibious fleet composites to meet the changing demand"--Publisher's web site.
