The Russian Naval General Staff ( Russian : Морской генеральный штаб , romanized :  Morskoi generalnyi shtab ) was created on May 7, 1906 by Tsar Nicholai II from the existing Research Unit of the Main Naval Staff after the Russo-Japanese War . Its mission was to formulate war plans and to decide the characteristics of new ships as the Main Naval Staff was too occupied with day-to-day matters. Its first head was Captain 1st Rank L. A. Brusilov, brother of General Aleksei Brusilov , and it initially was composed of only 15 officers. By the beginning of World War I it had expanded to 40 officers. ^[1] It was disbanded by the Bolsheviks when they seized power in 1917.
