The concept of non-lethal weapons has been the subject of increased attention and debate in recent years. The desire to minimize personnel casualties and collateral damage during post-Cold War peacekeeping and humanitarian missions has resulted in focusing development and employment efforts on land-based operations. This paper investigates the potential applicability of non-lethal technologies to operations in the maritime environment, and the possible benefits to be derived from this application to the Joint Force or Maritime Component Commander.
