Abstract

A 2ª Revolta da Armada Brasileira colocou ao Governo a necessidade de criar uma esquadra alternativa, com a finalidade de combater os revoltosos na baía de Guanabara. A complexidade e os constrangimentos marcaram a formação dessa força, que apesar das críticas que foram feitas ao processo de formação, será possível identificar uma estratégia com vista a um determinado fim. É neste sentido que abordamos o tema nesta comunicação e pretendemos abrir novas hipóteses de investigação numa perspectiva histórico-militar, em que se analisa a evolução tecnológica e as inovações.
