After the Second World War, submarines developed into a particularly fearsome weapon, not least due to the use of nuclear propulsion and the development of ship-launched missiles with nuclear warheads. The Soviet Union invested enormous sums in a world-class submarine programme and produced an impressive number of innovative designs. Norman Polmar is a best-selling author and recognised expert in this field. His previous works on Russian and Soviet submarines have been praised by senior officers in the US and Russian navies. Building on his earlier works, this book provides readers with an authoritative English-language history of the post-war submarine forces of the USSR and the Russian Federation. It contains more than 100 photographs and line drawings.
