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. Hans Karr traces the important developments in weapons technology up to the end of the First World War. Beginning with submarines and surface forces, he explains the fundamental changes in the significance of these developments through to advances in surface and underwater weaponry.
