Author Description

**** This complete survey of underwater technologies, markets, and manufacturers details some 600 shipborne systems for underwater warfare from 168 international manufacturers. The volume is arranged in four broad areas covering anti-submarine warfare, underwater weapons, mine warfare, and associated underwater warfare systems. These main areas are subdivided into primary categories and these are further subdivided into secondary categories. In this way, particular types of systems related to one specific form of underwater warfare are all grouped together, making reference and comparison much easier.
