Children’s Book: Artillery, Bombs, and Rockets – Modern Weapons

Description

With its wealth of information and visual clarity, the “Modern Weapons” series will introduce you to contemporary weapon systems-from attack nuclear submarines, to rocket artillery, to 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 fourth book in the series covers light, medium, and heavy artillery, bombs, and missiles: self-propelled guns, rocket artillery systems, anti-aircraft artillery, anti-tank missiles, cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, dispenser weapons, atomic bombs, and others. At a glance, the reader can see the advantages of one type of weapon over another.

Colorful diagrams compare weapon data such as range, elevation, caliber, rate of fire, range, effective range, warhead weight, submunitions, charge, radius of effect, 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.
