ABSTRACT Discussion surrounding the announcement of a new NATO Maritime Command for the North Atlantic seems to have settled on the assumption that there is again a vital “sea-line of communication” (SLOC) between North America and Europe as there was supposed to be during the Cold War. The Soviet Union had a large fleet of nuclear and conventional submarines and it seemed very clear that Soviet admirals intended to fight a third “Battle of the Atlantic” in the event of war to prevent Western resupply of NATO. However, this scenario bore no resemblance to what the Soviet Navy actually intended to do in case of war. Changes in technology, notably in submarine propulsion, antisubmarine warfare (ASW), and ballistic missile range and accuracy were the real drivers of the Cold War in the Atlantic. Cruise missile-armed submarines that can attack shore-based economic infrastructure are the real threat from the Russian submarine force.

“这些不是您正在寻找的 SLOC” 大西洋的镜像战无法解决当前的大西洋安全需求

摘要 围绕宣布北大西洋新北约海事司令部的讨论似乎已经确定，北美和欧洲之间再次存在一条重要的“海上交通线”（SLOC）冷战。苏联拥有庞大的核潜艇和常规潜艇舰队，很明显，苏联海军上将打算在发生战争时进行第三次“大西洋之战”，以阻止西方向北约提供补给。然而，这种情况与苏联海军在发生战争时的实际意图完全不同。技术的变化，特别是潜艇推进、反潜战 (ASW) 以及弹道导弹射程和精度的变化，是大西洋冷战的真正驱动因素。
