Aug 06. Future Maritime Operations Conference 2006. 22 – 23 Nov 2006, RUSI, Whitehall, London, SW1A 2ET. Focusing on emerging trends in maritime security, and looking at recent case studies highlighting the unique and significant role of maritime forces in the global security network, the conference will examine the full span of maritime operations and assess future requirements for the Royal Navy and her partners and allies. The conference 2006 will seek to establish the evolving role of maritime forces within the global security context. The first day of the conference will examine the conceptual context for the use of maritime force. The UK Government sees the Royal Navy as a force for good in the world. In military terms, with questions raised increasingly about the availability of access, basing and overflight rights for land-based assets, forces deployed at sea in a joint sea base provide a ready means of projecting appropriate influence at sea or ashore at the place and time of choice. In security terms, the current global security environment is characterized by the increasing use of the sea by potential adversaries as a means of moving people and materials, but with coalition and commercial assets which use the sea also seen as potential targets. In broader political terms, forces based at sea are often seen as international representatives of their respective governments, and often have as much a political role as a purely military one. Such presence is, arguably, the unique and enduring tenet of maritime forces.
