Abstract
Aim. To explain the term “naval warfare” based on works of foreign and domestic theorists of military art.
Methodology. A review and comprehensive analysis of the term “naval warfare” was carried out based on the research of military historians Ph. H. Colomb, A. Th. Mahan and S. G. Gorshkov.
Results. In the course of studying the works of Admirals Ph. H. Colomb, A. Th. Mahan and S. G. Gorshkova, it was discovered that the “naval warfare” and similar to it constructs, despite their similarity, reflect different aspects of the war at sea, which creates difficulty in drawing conclusions on the problem and requires the systematization of the material. The chronological framework of the “naval warfare” was revealed, as well as its definition.
Research implications. In this paper, the key works have been identified, on the basis of which the views and judgments of admiral theorists about the semantic meaning of the term “naval warfare” are formulated.
