From the publisher: Naval developments, both technological and operational, in the quarter century since the end of the Cold War: Waters provides political and economic context, assesses significant naval operations from the first Gulf War to Russia’s annexation of Crimea, reviews changes in the objectives and composition of the principal fleets, describes major design developments amongst the main warship types, and examines wider technological and operational developments, including naval aviation, shipbuilding and manning.

FSM says: A contemporary compendium of the world’s navies will prove a valuable reference to modelers whose Jane’s volumes may well be outdated.
