Book tip: Naval technology of the Second World War

Motorbuch-Verlag presents its new product hot off the press:

Naval technology of the Second World War

Development - Use - Consequences

Hans Karr, a long-standing expert on naval vessels, author of countless specialist articles and freelance contributor to Marineforum, is publishing his latest work after a long break.

Before and during the Second World War, naval technology underwent perhaps its most fundamental change: proud battleships such as the Bismarck or the Yamato were soon only suitable as museum pieces following the emergence of aircraft carriers. Many developments, such as the large-scale deployment of submarines, were based on experience gained during the First World War. Naval expert and successful author Hans Karr traces the important developments in weapons technology up to the end of the Second World War. Beginning with the submarines and surface forces, Karr explains the fundamental changes in the significance of their armament both above and below the water.
