Features: This book is part of the Weapons and Warfare series. Since people invented ships, there have been naval wars. Naval warfare is one of the oldest forms of combat in human history. From the initial sail-powered vessels to steam power and then to heavy oil power, from the primitive structural design to the ironclad structure and further to the steel structure, as shipbuilding techniques became increasingly complex and new powers were applied, the scope and intensity of naval warfare gradually increased, and the methods of combat also became more diverse. The modern naval power struggles depicted in this book not only provide you with rich knowledge of naval weapons but also help you understand the potential cooperation and conflicts in the future of maritime affairs, as well as analyze their development direction and impact. As long as there is water, there are ships, and with ships, there are warships. Today, people have built hundreds of types of vessels and warships, from the massive aircraft carriers that dominate the surface of the water to the mysterious underwater vessels that move freely, from the nearly invulnerable armored battleships to the elusive torpedo boats. In the past, people regarded the ocean as a battlefield for expansion and used ships as weapons for conquest. In the bygone era, the scientific strongmen with powerful ships and cannons once aspired to dominate this boundless sea. Time and again, naval battles have shaped and driven the course of human history, like rolling waves moving forward. In the vast ocean, every wave and every drop of water is soaked with blood and tears. World Naval Warfare revisits the intense scenes of modern naval battles and recreates the glorious past.
