The Chief of Naval Operations defines FORCEnet as the "operational construction and architectural framework for Naval Warfare in the Information Age which integrates warriors, sensors, networks, command and control, platforms and weapons into a networked, distributed combat force, scalable across the spectrum of conflict from seabed to space and sea to land." The Trident Warrior experiments are the Navy's premier FORCEnet Sea Trial experiments. The purpose of the Trident Warrior experiments is to provide "speed to capability" and to develop supporting tactics, techniques, and procedures The purpose of this thesis will be to provide a basic overview of the Trident Warrior Experimentation Process. Through a step-by-step analysis, this thesis will explain and justify the many steps required to complete a successful experiment/experimentation campaign.

Alfred T. Mahan stressed that naval strategy means using the power of sea. Thus one can imagine that whether the national sea power can develop smoothly is closely related to the development of naval strategy. The prosperity or decline of the national sea power is quite related with its own strength of the Navy. In the recent years, the development of PLA navy rise rapidly just like the economy of PRC. At the same time, the development of PLA navy become the focus of the western countries, especially after Hu Jintao took the office. The desire to acquire open sea fleet also makes the western countries to concern and feel uneasy. The long range strategic goal of the PLA is to ensure the PRC¡¦s regional military initiative in Asia. When attacking Taiwan, the PRC want to make sure the effectiveness against the U.S. military intervention. The PRC also want to defend its the maritime economic and energy interests in other regions. The naval power of the PLA navy is far behind the advanced countries in the past. Not until Deng Xiaoping brought up the ¡§concept of sea power¡¨ did it awake the PLA navy the ¡§sense of ocean¡¨ and then trigger the Great Leap of military build-up towards the comprehensive objectives of direction for high technology of defense, military deterrence, national defense economy and international diplomacy. On the other hand, this Great Leap of military build-up caused a grave threat on the national security of the ROC. Therefore, this thesis is trying to discuss the naval developing history of the PRC after 1949 and hope to reach the goal as Sun Tzu said:¡¨ One who knows the enemy and knows himself as well may never be defeated¡¨.
