In 1954, the USA achieved a technological milestone: with the "Nautilus" the U.S. Navy's first nuclear-powered submarine in history enters service. The flexibility of the new drive revolutionized naval warfare; the "Nautilus" and its successors became the model for hundreds of other ships worldwide. Today the USA operates the largest submarine fleet in the world with around 70 units. In this book, naval expert and specialist author Lutz A. Kowalzick presents the nuclear-powered submarines of all classes of the U.S. Navy, from the beginning to the present.
