Royal Navy Type 45 destroyer manual : an insight into operating and maintaining the Royal Navy's largest "The Type 45 Destroyer Manual is an officially licensed Royal Navy product and the Type 45 the first modern warship to receive the Haynes Manual treatment. Author Jonathan Gates, a member of the design team for the Type 45, was given unique access to the Type 45 'Daring' class by the Royal Navy enabling him to produce this unique and detailed insight into the design, construction, maintenance and operation of this awesome fighting vessel. On 23 July 2009 HMS Daring was commissioned into service with the Royal Navy as the first of a class of powerful Type 45 anti-air warfare (AAW) destroyers. These complex warships incorporate several major advances in naval technology and are recognised as the most capable AAW vessels in the world. They will form the mainstay of the Royal Navy's fleet for the next three decades. The six Type 45 destroyers represent a substantial enhancement in surface warfare capability and flexibility. They embody much innovative equipment and significant engineering advances over the previous generation of warships. In particular, two notable primary systems were developed specifically for the Type 45 destroyers: a radical Integrated Electric Propulsion System (IEPS) and Sea Viper, a cutting-edge AAW system. Both of these revolutionary systems contribute to the superlative performance of the Type 45 destroyers. In many ways the Type 45 destroyers are a new departure for the Royal Navy. For instance, there is a high degree of automation enabling these large warships to be efficiently operated by a ship's staff that is two-thirds smaller than that of its predecessors. They are also the first Royal Navy warships to be specifically designed to accommodate a ship's complement of both men and women."--Provided by the publisher. 2014. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 623.823.1(42)

Royal Navy Home Fleet 1939-41 : the last line of defence at Scapa Flow /Angus Konstam ; illustrated by "Throughout its history, the Royal Navy's most powerful fleet has been the one guarding home waters. In this book, naval historian Angus Konstam explores the fighting power, the roles, and the battles of the Home Fleet, in the crucial first years of World War II when it was Britain's most powerful fighting force, anchored in the northern bastion of Scapa Flow. He explains the complex responsibilities of the fleet, charged simultaneously with preventing the powerful German Navy from breaking out into the Atlantic; preparing to challenge any cross-Channel invasion force; and attacking German naval operations in the North Sea. Home Fleet actions included the loss of HMS Hood, the sinking of the Bismarck and countering the invasion of Norway, Germany's biggest amphibious operation of the war. Packed with striking new artwork and 3D diagrams and maps, this book offers a detailed portrait of the Home Fleet during these most crucial years of the war, from the capabilities of the warships to logistics and intelligence-gathering, to how the fleet was organized and commanded, and how and why it fought as it did."-- 2024. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 940.545941
