THE STAGE WAS SET
The Russian Defense Minister: “A nuclear submarine fleet is the future of the armed forces. The
number of tanks and guns will be reduced, as well as the infantry, but a modern navy is a totally
different thing.”
CNO CONGRESSIONAL TESTIMONY:House National Security Committee Testimony, 1996 Defense
budget, February 22, 1995:
“...The Russians today have six submarines at sea that are quieter than the 688(I)s, our best
submarine. ...This is the first time since we put Nautilus to sea that they have had submarines at
sea quieter than ours.As you know,quieting is everything in submarine warfare.”
But even as these words were spoken, the Soviet era had given way, and the submarine warriors
had a few years to rest on their laurels.
