"All the necessary details of the world's fleet are here." - Baird Maritime For decades, the bilingual Weyers's Warship of the World handbook has been internationally recognised as a high quality, reliable reference work. The new edition is packed with valuable information on the navies of the world, with facts and figures including numbers and classes, names and designations, displacement figures, measurements, speed, engine and propulsion, performance, endurance, armour, sensor and weapons fit, missiles, aircraft and much more. Complete with colour photos and sketches, ships are grouped into categories and classes, thus enabling the user to both extract information on individual platforms and to compare fleet structures. Up-to-date and accurate, this excellent reference guide is both very reasonably priced and easy to use. A must for any naval historian.
