BNC introduces Deterrence Doctrine; the navy's version of the "Yeudi Way"May 5480Himmelshtern, Beiteynu - It seems the Tafsik (Deterrence) Doctrine that's been in the works by the MOD for a few years now is ironically the navy's interpretation of the infamous
Yeudi Way that the Medinat Department swears by. Minister of Defence Ariel Tzafrir was joined by the Naval Chief in a press conference this morning from the BNC's headquarters in Himmelshtern, to announce the introduction of the new naval doctrine.
The Naval Chief's opening statement:
We got 2 major lessons from the war.
[begins to gulp a 0.5L bottle of Avienne water]
[moments pass]
[journalists begin looking at each other, gulping continues]
[finishes bottle]
First, we engaged in direct conflict, but indirect weaponry had the most effect.
Second, we did not lose the war because of direct conflict, but indirect movements.
It makes absolutely no sense for the Beiteynuese Naval Command to continue its past doctrine of trying to imitate the directness of heavyweights. Directness is simply not something we're good at, much less excel at. We never were. We never will.
We should have focused on indirect weaponry and indirect movements.
Now that; that's the thing we're good at.
Indirectness.
The Tafsik Doctrine, is a strategic reaction plan attached to the military's Azhara Doctrine, but for the navy. However, the doctrine also institutes indirectness, meaning that the deployment of
Shahar Fleets will occur in other, related locations, not where the action is.
Simply put, if the danger is in the Artanian Sea, a Shahar Fleet will deploy to the Red Bass Ocean, from the other side.
And another to the Migrant's Pass; and another to the Majatran Strait.
Preparing to, well, engage in indirect tactics.

To solidify the navy's transition to the new doctrine, the BNC confirmed the disbandment of Zaar and Moledet Fleets, essentially basing the navy's structure on 3 fleets in charge of the Homeland's defence and 4 Shahar Fleets in charge of deterrence tactics.
Each defensive fleet will consist of a minimum of 3 divisions themselves: defence, intelligence and deterrence.
Shahar Fleets, on the other hand, will move towards the newly introduced Kadima (Forward) CSG formations, with further details yet to be released, excluding the confirmed defence contracts for the intermediate range ballistic missile (IRBM) capable Nekama-class cruisers announced
2 years ago.

The Naval Chief also confirmed the transformation of the Nahshol CSG into Kadima I, to be stationed in the
3rd Point Base, upon completion. Which, technically, makes it a carrier strike group deployed on Artanian soil.

Experts have surmised that the Beiteynuese Naval Command's transition to this lightweight and agile method of indirect tactics may pose a risk to Beiteynu's capabilities in ensuring the security of the Yeudish Neset and the Homeland State itself.
Apparently, the Kohav seems to hedge its bets on the repositioning of the Yeudish Neset, relying on handpicked alliances such as the Yishelhafen Pact.
And, of course, Sato's and Black Beisa's terrifying Yeudicho ICBMs that destroyed an entire fleet during the war.
