Professional naval debate scans beyond the leading threat

An April 2021 comparison describes British naval writing as covering China alongside Russia, Iran and other possible threats.

Question

Does Royal Navy professional writing focus on China as heavily as US Naval Institute Proceedings?

Short answer

In this April 2021 assessment, China is prominent, while British discussion also keeps Russia, Iran, Argentina and other potential problems in view.

Notes

In this April 2021 comparison, British naval professional writing gives China substantial attention alongside Russia and Iran. An annual article on Argentina is recalled as assessing its capabilities and what it could do if motivated to act. The publication comparison therefore includes several possible problems rather than treating one state as the entire planning agenda.
