Santa Cruz 1942: Carrier Duel in the South Pacific
ISBN: 9781849086059 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Santa Cruz is the forgotten carrier battle of 1942. Despite myth, the Japanese carrier force was not destroyed at Midway but survived to still prove a threat in the Pacific theater. Nowhere was this clearer than in the battle of Santa Cruz of October 1942. The stalemate on the ground in the Guadalcanal campaign led to the major naval forces of both belligerents becoming inexorably more and more involved in the fighting, each seeking to win the major victory that would open the way for a breakthrough on land as well. The US Task Force 61 under the command of Rear Admiral Kinkaid and... Santa Cruz is the forgotten carrier battle of 1942.

ISBN: 9781841768533 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The Imperial Japanese Navy was a pioneer in naval aviation, having commissioned the world's first built-from-the-keel-up carrier, the Hosho. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, it experimented with its carriers, perfecting their design and construction. As a result, by the time Japan entered World War II and attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor in 1941, it possessed a fantastically effective naval aviation force. This book covers the design, development and operation of IJN aircraft carriers built prior to and during World War II. Pearl Harbor, Midway and the first carrier vs carrier...

ISBN: 9781849089845 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. During the Pacific War, arguably the most successful component of the Imperial Japanese Fleet was its destroyer force. These ships were generally larger than their Allied counterparts and were better armed in most cases. Armed with a large, long-range torpedo (eventually called Long Lance by the Allies), these ships proved themselves as formidable opponents. In the first part of the war, Japanese destroyers were instrumental in an unbroken string of Japanese victories. However, it was not until the Guadalcanal campaign that these ships fully demonstrated their power. In a series of night...

Italian Battleships of World War II
ISBN: 9781849083805 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Often overlooked as a naval power of WWII, Italy's Regia Marina was, upon the declaration of war against France, the fourth largest navy in the world. Despite its numbers, the Italian fleet was made up of largely obsolete vessels, none being equipped with radar, and had a reputation for having inadequately-trained crews. Added to these drawbacks, the Italian commanders did not enjoy the discretion of command at sea that their counterparts in the service of other nations did, being directed closely by the Supermarina (Italian Naval Headquarters). Despite these obstacles, and the heavy losses...

Us Heavy Cruisers 1941-45: Pre-War Classes
ISBN: 9781782006299 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. American Navy cruisers built prior to World Wat II saw extensive action throughout the Pacific War, in both surface actions like Guadalcanal, and carrier battles like Midway. Designed and produced under the regulations of the Washington Naval Treaty, the heavy cruisers of the Pensacola, Northampton, Portland, New Orleans and Wichita classes were exercises in compromise. While they possessed very heavy armament, the Pensacolas, for example, carrying a main battery of ten 8" guns, this came at the cost of protection - armor was the same thickness as a gun cruiser, and incapable of...

Włoskie okręty liniowe podczas II Wojny Światowej
ISBN: 9788365495488 / Polski / Miękka / 2016 / 54 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Marynarka Wojenna Włoch, Regia Marina, w chwili wybuchu II Wojny Światowej była czwartą flotą wojenną na świecie, lecz mimo tego jest często pomijana i powszechnie uznawana za nieskuteczną. Składała się ona w dużej mierze z okrętów przestarzałych, nie posiadających wyposażenia radarowego, a jej załogi miały reputację niezdyscyplinowanych i słabo wyszkolonych. Skomplikowany i biurokratyczny system dowodzenia narzucony flocie jeszcze bardziej utrudniał jej działania. Pomimo tego Regia Marina udało się zachować opinię solidnej floty wojennej. W niniejszej książce...

Imperial Japanese Navy Light Cruisers 1941-45
ISBN: 9781849085625 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Like their heavy cruiser brethren, the light cruisers built by the Imperial Japanese Navy in the build-up to WWII paid little more than lip service to the international naval treaties that were intended to keep the naval powers on a level playing field. The eight classes of light cruiser developed by the IJN were fast, well-armed, and technologically superior to the fleets the Allied powers could bring to bear. Serving with distinction across the Pacific Theatre, the IJN's light cruisers were committed to such actions as Midway and Leyte Gulf. Mark Stille continues Osprey's coverage of the...

ISBN: 9781846030376 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Dominating the seas during World War II, the US aircraft carrier played a crucial role in every major naval combat of the war. Development of the Essex class began in 1941, and was the largest class of carrier ever built. During the Pacific War it formed the backbone of any fighting force and became renowned for its mighty 'Sunday Punch' - the impressive offensive power of 36 fighter planes, 36 dive bombers, and 18 torpedo planes. The Independence class was a lighter and faster carrier, built after Pearl Harbor, to bring more ships into action as quickly as possible. Alongside...
