Description
This book provides a detailed yet not over-technical account of the factors which influence the combat and sea-going capabilities of the vessels which equip the navies of today. The consequences of the choice of armament, power plant and electronics, the benefits and penalties resulting from the operation, stowage and maintenance of ship-borne aircraft, and the ability of a ship to withstand significant action damage without loss of operational effectiveness are all important design parameters which are closely examined by the author. The design of today's multi-role fighting ships is one of the most interesting aspects of the defence industry. This book offers a fascinating account of the process, and deserves a place in the libraries of all who have an interest in modern naval power.
