British warships & auxiliaries.

"The fully revised and updated guide to the ships, aircraft and weapons of the Fleet. In full colour with over 90 photographs. The book starts with a "no-holds barred" review of the state of the Royal Navy followed by sections detailing the fleets of the Royal Navy, Royal Fleet Auxiliary and support vessels, all with pennant numbers and silhouettes. Now expanded to include Royal Marine Craft and Border Agency vessels. Each entry includes a full colour photograph together with a class listing, pennant numbers, technical specifications and brief notes. Similar sections cover the aircraft and weapons operated by the Royal Navy. The book includes a short summary of future ships - due to join the Fleet, ordered or under development. It concludes with a listing of those ships preserved within the UK and operating in a secondary role after decommissioning and a summary of those vessels which have been scrapped since the previous edition."--Provided by the publisher.
