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 after the advent of aircraft carriers. Many developments, such as the large-scale use of submarines, went back to the experiences during the First World War. In this comprehensive documentation, Hans Karr traces the important developments in weapons technology up to the end of the Second World War.
In doing so, he spans the arc from submarines and surface forces to the advances in weapons technology in surface and underwater armament and explains their fundamental change in significance.
