Antrojo pasaulinio karo metu Imperatoriškasis Japonijos karinis jūrų laivynas buvo povandeninių laivų technologijų priešakyje. Jame buvo didžiausi pasaulyje priešbranduoliniai povandeniniai laivai, kai kurie iš jų galėjo gabenti plūduriuojančius bombonešius, kurie veikė kartu su greitaisiais koviniais laivais ir vidutinio dydžio povandeniniais laivais, visi aprūpinti geriausiomis turimomis torpedomis. Japonijos povandeninis laivynas turėjo būti baimę kelianti jėga, tačiau, nepaisant to, kad atliko svarbų skautų vaidmenį ir džiaugėsi keliais pastebimais laimėjimais, jis buvo stebėtinai neveiksmingas. Naudodamas unikalias spalvotas plokšteles, Markas Stille'as aprašo stulbinančią šio laivų asortimento techninę pažangą ir karo meto taktiką, atsakingą už jų gedimą.

Aircraft carriers were the US Navy’s principal weapon against Japan during the Pacific War. Development of the Essex class began in 1939, becoming the largest class of carrier ever to be built. Early in the Pacific War it became renowned for its ‘Sunday Punch’ of 36 fighter planes, 36 dive bombers, and 18 torpedo planes. Alongside the lighter Independence class, these carriers formed the formidable Fast Carrier Force in the Pacific. Featuring artwork detailing the interior and exterior features of the ships, this book explores their design, development, and the action they saw in the Pacific, including the climactic battles of Philippine Sea, Leyte Gulf, and Okinawa.

Tankų kreiseris Kometa A34 was a British cruiser tank that first saw use near the end of World War II. It was designed to provide greater anti-tank capability to Cromwell tank squadrons. It was armed with a 77mm HV, a derivative of the 17 pounder, with the result that it was one of the few British tanks with the firepower to challenge late war German designs. As a development of the Cromwell, it was an interim design before the Centurion tank. The Comet saw post World War II combat during the Korean war, and remained in British service until 1958. Comets sold to other countries continued in some cases to operate into the 1970s.

The submarine was the invisible but formidable weapon of the Royal Navy during World War II. This book examines the three major classes – ‘S’, ‘T’ and ‘U’ – detailing their design, development and modification. The major submarine engagements of the war are recounted, including the Norwegian campaign, the battle of Malta in March 1942, Operation Pedestal, and many other engagements in all theatres between the British subs, German U-Boats and Japanese subs. Using many previously unpublished sources and his own extensive underwater explorations, Innes McCartney gives a highly detailed account of the British submarine.

Knyga, kurią pasirašė Osprey leidyba the «Swimming Shermans – NEW VANGUARD 123» .

2007 Sherman DD (Duplex Drive) tank was a brilliant innovation; the design and development of a tank that could float and even ‘swim’ in water was controversial. Each tank was enveloped in a waterproofed canvas screen, launched at sea from landing craft and then ‘swam’ to shore, where the screens were deflated, allowing the tanks to operate as fighting vehicles. This book discusses the Sherman DD’s many variants, including the prototype Valentine DD tank and examines the successes and tragic failures on the beaches of Normandy and further into North-West Europe, including the challenge of crossing the River Rhine.

For most of World War II, British tank development remained faithful to the design philosophy inaugurated during World War I. Experiences in North Africa highlighted flaws in this basic design, however, and the General Staff identified the need for a new heavy cruiser that could combine speed and manoeuvrability with increased armour and armament. The Cromwell Cruiser tank was designed as a result and soon proved itself one of the fastest and most successful tanks deployed by the Allies during World War II. This book details the design and development of the Cromwell and its many variants, from its introduction at D-Day, through its many successes in the final year of World War II and beyond

Naval warfare in the Pacific changed completely with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. The strategic emphasis shifted from battleships to much more lethal, far-ranging weapons systems; one of these was the submarine. This book details the design and development, classes, weapons and equipment, tactics and operational history of the US submarine in World War II. Detailed tables, photographs, and superb color plates depict the force that had an effect far beyond its size – the submarine accounted for 55% of all Japanese shipping losses, despite suffering the highest percentage loss of any unit of the United State Armed Forces in World War II.

The Landing Ship Tank (LST) is one of the most famous of the many World War II amphibious warfare ships. Capable of discharging its cargo directly on to shore and extracting itself, the LST provided the backbone of all Allied landings between 1943 and 1945, notably during the D-Day invasion. Through its history, the LST saw service from late 1942 until late 2002, when the US Navy decommissioned the USS Frederick (LST-1184), the last ship of its type. This book reveals the development and use of the LST, including its excellence beyond its initial design expectations.
