Strike from the Sea

The Development and Deployment of Strategic Cruise Missiles Since 1934

Edición de la obra Strike from the Sea

"Strike from the Sea addresses the U.S. Navy's Regulus missile program-the world's first submarine weapon for attacking an enemy homeland with a nuclear warhead-and the similar Soviet Navy's cruise missile efforts. Prior to Regulus a few of the world's submarines had deck guns that were employed for assaulting coastal targets; indeed, the British built a class of "submarine monitors" with large-caliber guns for attacking coastal targets."--
