For the first time under one cover, all the submarines of the Second World War!
A unique illustrated encyclopedia!
In the Second World War, submarines became famous as a formidable weapon - on their account thousands of ships and hundreds of warships launched to the bottom (only 34 commanders of German submarines sank a tonnage of an equal third of the trade fleet of the British Empire) The attacks of the submarine were similar to the attack of wolves on sheep, which ruthlessly torn off the herd-adversary and did not spare loners. However, for these successes, submariners had to pay a considerable price: over 1000 submarines of the war member countries died over six years of hostilities.
No one joined the Second World War with such submarines as the Soviet Union. By June 1941, the USSR had impressive underwater forces in 211 submarines. Starting the war with only 57 boats, the Third Reich launched their large -scale construction and the total number of underwater forces Kriegsmarine amounted to more than 1,100 units. The submarines of the United States, Great Britain, Japan, Italy also actively participated in the underwater war.
This book for the first time gives exhaustive information about all submarines not only the main participants in the Second World War, but also about the submarines of Poland, Greece, France, Norway and Holland, who fought as part of the royal fleet after the capture of these countries. From ultra -small submarines, with a displacement of only 7 tons to giant underwater cruisers with a displacement of more than 4 thousand tons, from unique underwater aircraft carriers carrying seaplays in steel womb to "working horses" battles for the Atlantic - boats of type VII, as well as revolutionary electrobots type XXI .
The publication is illustrated by exclusive projections, drawings and photographs
