Abstract [sv]

Sjöherravälde, Corbetts teorier inom ramen för modern ubåtskrigföring.

Studie om Corbetts teorier och hur de appliceras på modern ubåtskrigföring. Sjökrigets grunder beskrivs inledningsvis samt av Corbett sammanställda metoderna för etablerande, bestridande samt utövande av sjöherravälde och ubåten som vapen. Därefter följer en studie av historiska källor rörande modern ubåtskrigföring. I denna ingår Scapa Flow 1939, ubåtsstrid vid slaget om Atlanten och USAs sjöfartskrig mot Japan samt sänkningen av Belgrano och det inledande skedet av Falklandskriget 1982. 

Fokus ligger på de olika metoderna som Corbett beskriver för sjöherravälde: avgörande slag, blockad, fleet in being, försvar mot landstigning, sjöfartskrig, amfibieoperationer samt stödjande av expeditionsstyrkor. Med bakgrund i dessa utmynnar uppsatsen i en diskussion om modern ubåtskrigföring som i stor utsträckning verifierar Corbetts teorier.

Abstract [en]

Naval supremacy, Corbett’s theories within the framework of modern submarine warfare?

Study of Corbett’s theories and how they apply on modern submarine warfare. Basics of naval warfare is initially described as well as by Corbett complied methods for establishing, disputing and practising naval supremacy and also the submarine as a weapon. Subsequently follows a study of historical sources of modern submarine warfare. This includes Scapa Flow 1939, submarine warfare at the battle of the Atlantic sea and the United States attack on Japanese sea trade in addition to the attack on Belgrano and the preliminary of the Falkland war. 

Focus is on the different methods for naval supremacy that Corbett describes: naval battle, blockade, fleet in being, minor counterattacks, defence against invasion, attack and defence on trade as well as attack, defence and support of military expeditions. With these in context the study results in a discussion about modern submarine warfare that in large extent verifies Corbett’s theories.
