NTTP 1-01 (APR 2005) defines relationships among commands and programs involved in tactics development (including all draft phases), assigns responsibilities for developing and maintaining tactical and doctrinal publications, and contains guidance for maintaining the Navy Warfare Library.

NTTP 3-50.1 (SEP 2013), NAVY SEARCH AND RESCUE (SAR) MANUAL, provides guidance to units assigned SAR responsibilities. It is intended to promote and maintain standardization of SAR procedures, equipment, and techniques within the U.S. naval forces. It is essential that NTTP 3-50.1 be readily available to unit personnel who may engage in SAR operations. NTTP 3-50.1 is supplemental to the International Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue Manual, which provides guidance for U.S. forces, military or civil, participating in combined SAR operations.

Summary. The information contained in NTTP 4-01.4, Underway Replenishment, is directed toward preparing both the replenishment and customer ship for a replenishment evolution. Detailed rig make-up, requisite equipment, and standardized procedures are established to serve as specific guidelines for all aspects of replenishment at sea. Each ship shall ensure wide dissemination to all personnel involved in the planning of, supervision of, and participation in underway replenishment evolutions.

NTTP 3-32.1, Maritime Operations Center, builds on the foundation established in NWP 3-32, Maritime Operations at the Operational Level of War, and describes the maritime operations center (MOC) philosophy and organization. It has been developed in recognition that today's fast-paced and multifaceted operational environment demands a more standardized approach across the full range of military operations. This publication should be considered a living document. It and each future revision should bring all United States Navy commands a step closer to common tactics, techniques, and procedures at the operational level. Success in the modern maritime operational environment requires working with elements of the joint force, multinational partners, and maritime commanders. The conduct of modern maritime operations requires a command and control (C2) system and processes that support planning and execution from the strategic, through operational, to tactical levels.

Navy Tactics, Techniques, And Procedures NTTP 3-07.2.3 Law Enforcement and Physical Security August 2011 This publication provides tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) governing the conduct of physical security (PS) and law enforcement (LE) at Navy installations, within expeditionary forces and onboard Navy ships. It provides a basis for understanding Navy policies and objectives related to PS and LE. More important, it provides regional commanders (REGCOMs), regional security officers (RSOs), installation and ship commanding officers (COs), security officers (SO), administrative staffs, and the Navy security force (NSF) with needed tools to help organize, plan, train for, and implement effective and efficient PS and LE programs using the limited resources at their disposal. Both PS and LE programs include measures taken by a command, ship, or installation to protect against all acts designed to, or that may, impair its effectiveness. In other words, both PS and LE personnel provide security and are key to the protection construct. Within this document, installation security officers and afloat security officers will be referred to as SOs.

Navy Tactics Techniques and Procedures NTTP 3-15.24 Mine Countermeasures in Support of Amphibious Operations JANUARY 2008 NTTP 3-15.24, MINE COUNTERMEASURES IN SUPPORT OF AMPHIBIOUS OPERATIONS, delineates tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) for planning and executing mine countermeasures (MCM) operations that enable amphibious operations. As the source document for MCM from the stern gate through the beach exit in support of amphibious operations, it revises TTP for current and near term program-of-record (POR) equipment, concepts, and practices. NTTP 3-15.24 is intended for use in conjunction with Navy Warfare Publication (NWP) 3-15/Marine Corps Warfighting Publication (MCWP) 3-31.2, Naval Mine Warfare; NTTP 3-15.21, Surface Mine Countermeasures Operations (U); NTTP 3-15.22, Airborne Mine Countermeasures Operations (U); NTTP 3-15.23, Underwater Mine Countermeasures (U); JP 3-15, Barriers, Obstacles, and Mine Warfare for Joint Operations; JP 3-02, Joint Doctrine for Amphibious Operations; and NTTP 3-02.1M/MCWP 3-31.5, Ship-to-Shore Movement.

Network-Centric Naval Forces: A Transition Strategy for Enhancing Operational Capabilities is a study to advise the Department of the Navy regarding its transition strategy to achieve a network-centric naval force through technology application. This report discusses the technical underpinnings needed for a transition to networkcentric forces and capabilities.

Learning War examines the U.S. Navy’s doctrinal development from 1898–1945 and explains why the Navy in that era was so successful as an organization at fostering innovation. A revolutionary study of one of history’s greatest success stories, this book draws profoundly important conclusions that give new insight, not only into how the Navy succeeded in becoming the best naval force in the world, but also into how modern organizations can exploit today’s rapid technological and social changes in their pursuit of success. Trent Hone argues that the Navy created a sophisticated learning system in the early years of the twentieth century that led to repeated innovations in the development of surface warfare tactics and doctrine. The conditions that allowed these innovations to emerge are analyzed through a consideration of the Navy as a complex adaptive system. Learning War is the first major work to apply this complex learning approach to military history. This approach permits a richer understanding of the mechanisms that enable human organizations to evolve, innovate, and learn, and it offers new insights into the history of the United States Navy.

This publication is about winning in combat. Winning requires many things: excellence in techniques, an appreciation of the enemy, exemplary leadership, battlefield judgment, and focused combat power. Yet these factors by themselves do not ensure success in battle. Many armies, both winners and losers, have possessed many or all of these attributes. When we examine closely the differences between victor and vanquished, we draw one conclusion. Success went to the armies whose leaders, senior and junior, could best focus their efforts-their skills and their resources-toward a decisive end. Their success arose not merely from excellence in techniques, procedures, and material but from their leaders' abilities to uniquely and effectively combine them. Winning in combat depends upon tactical leaders who can think creatively and act decisively.

NAVY TACTICAL REFERENCE PUBLICATION NTRP 1-01 The Naval Warfare Library May 2014 (NWL) is a compilation of doctrinal, tactical, and reference publications needed by the Navy warfighter. As illustrated by figure 1-1, the library includes publications from within the Navy Doctrine hierarchy and applicable Allied, multi-Service, and multinational publications. NTRP 1-01, The Navy Warfare Library, defines the organization and procedures governing Naval Doctrine Publication (NDP) 1; Navy warfare publications (NWPs); Navy tactics, techniques, and procedures (NTTPs); Navy tactical reference publications (NTRPs); fleet exercise publications (FXPs); and tactical memorandums (TACMEMOs). It assigns responsibilities for developing and maintaining tactical and doctrinal publications, and contains guidance for maintaining the NWL. Where applicable, NTRP 1-01 addresses procedures pertaining to multi-Service publications, Allied publications (APs), multinational publications (MPs), joint publications (JPs), Allied joint publications (AJPs), and the Navy Lessons Learned System used by U.S. Navy forces.
