About us
The Maritime Security Forum (hereafter used with the acronym “MSF”) is the scientific initiative of the ADMIRALS CLUB and is a platform for creating and disseminating knowledge and information in maritime security, which carries out a scientific activity and organizes information and public debate events. The MSF is also an environment for public dissemination and communication in naval policy, shipping, safety, maritime security and defence. Through cooperation with the professional-institutional and the academic and scientific research environment, the MSF offers opportunities to connect and integrate into the national networks of knowledge, dissemination and collaboration in the fields of naval policies, the development of the Blue Economy, security and defence, safety, maritime resilience and naval transport, to develop synergistic programs in the areas of interest.

A new study by the Maritime Security Forum entitled: Russia’s strategic naval naval collapse in the context of the war in Ukraine (2022-2025)
ARGUMENT
The analysis of contemporary conflicts, especially in their naval dimension, remains insufficiently covered in recent strategic literature, despite the marked developments in the tools and technologies of sea warfare. Our century, marked by the chameleonic features of hybrid warfare, the intersection of the gray areas of confrontation with new combat technologies, has revealed a dynamic of naval conflicts that can no longer be understood solely in conventional terms of numerical or technological superiority.
Our study aims to provide those interested with an in-depth strategic analysis of one of the least anticipated yet spectacular phenomena of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict: the accelerated degradation of the myth of the Russian Federation’s naval capabilities, especially in the Black Sea, as a result of Ukraine’s technological, tactical and informational adaptation.
Between 2022 and 2025, the war between Russia and Ukraine produced major transformations not only on land and in the air, but also in maritime space, demonstrating that traditional naval supremacy can be rapidly eroded through asymmetric, creative and relatively low-cost means. The Russian fleet, perceived for decades as an essential instrument of force projection in the Black Sea, became, in the course of the conflict, a vivid example of the vulnerability of conventional large structures to new types of warfare.
