Children’s Book: Warships and Submarines – Modern Weapons

Description

With its wealth of information and visual appeal, the “Modern Weapons” series will introduce you to contemporary weapon systems-from attack nuclear submarines, to rocket artillery, long-range bombers, attack helicopters, armored combat vehicles, automatic weapons, sniper rifles, and other small arms. Deadly effective and devastating, today’s weapons of war are extremely precise and feature specialized characteristics to meet the needs of any specific situation.

The fifth book in the series examines a wide variety of warships and submarines: corvettes and patrol vessels, frigates, destroyers, aircraft carriers, coastal operations ships, amphibious assault ships, nuclear submarines, conventional attack submarines, patrol submarines, submarines equipped with intercontinental ballistic missiles, and others. At a glance, the reader can see the advantages of some ships and submarines over others.

Colorful charts compare data on the vessels’ characteristics, such as speed, displacement, cruising range, crew, armament, range, number of aircraft, number of helicopters, diving depth, hull shape, speed on the surface and underwater, number of torpedo tubes, torpedo range, cruising range, and more.

Many of these weapon systems have been used in military conflicts, such as the Gulf War, the Iraq War, the war in Afghanistan, and conflicts in the Middle East.
