Marinetechnik des zweiten Weltkriegs

Before and during the Second World War, naval technology underwent what was perhaps its most fundamental change: After the advent of the aircraft carrier, proud battleships such as the Bismarck or the Yamato were soon only good as museum pieces. Many developments, such as the large-scale use of submarines, went back to the experiences of WWI. Hans Karr traces the important weapon technology developments up to the end of WWII. Beginning with the submarines and surface forces through to the weapon technology advances in armament above and below sea level, he explains their fundamental change in meaning.
