'''''Battle of the Atlantic''''' can refer to either of two naval campaigns, depending on context:
* [[World War I]] — [[Battle of the Atlantic (1914–1918)]], sometimes referred to as '''The First Battle of the Atlantic'''.
* [[World War II]] — [[Battle of the Atlantic (1939–1945)]], sometimes referred to as '''The Second Battle of the Atlantic'''.
A '''Third Battle of the Atlantic''' was envisioned to be part of any [[World War III|Third World War]] that arose out of the [[Cold War]]. Trans-Atlantic convoys would have to be protected from the [[Soviet Navy]] and as a result, the [[Royal Navy]] and the [[United States Navy|U.S. Navy]] developed [[anti-submarine warfare]] capabilities. This affected much of the two navies' operational planning.
