Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book does for naval anti-aircraft defence what the author's Naval Firepower did for surface gunnery ÛÒ it makes a highly complex but historically crucial subject accessible to the layman. It chronicles the growing aerial threat from its inception in the First World War and the response of each of the major navies down to the end of the Second, highlighting in particular the widely underestimated danger from dive-bombing. Central to this discussion is an analysis of what effective AA fire-control required, and how well each navy's systems actually worked. It also takes in the weapons themselves, how they were placed on ships, and how this reflected the tactical concepts of naval AA defence. As would be expected from any Friedman book, it offers striking insights ÛÒ he argues, for example, that the Royal Navy, so often criticised for lack of 'air-mindedness', was actually the most alert to the threat, but that its systems were inadequate not because they were too primitive but because they tried to achieve too much.??The book summarises the experience of WW2, particularly in theatres where the aerial danger was greatest, and a concluding chapter looks at post-1945 developments that drew on wartime lessons. All important guns, directors and electronics are represented in close-up photos and drawings, and lengthy appendices detail their technical data. It is, simply, another superb contribution to naval technical history by its leading exponent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High quality reprint of book issued in May 1944. Illustrated with photos. technical drawings.From the preface: "Improvements in naval ordnance and fire control methods have been so numerous and comprehensive since the opening of hostilities that the need for a new instruction manual became apparent to officers teaching ordnance and gunnery .at Naval Reserve Midshipmen's Schools. Officers in charge of the Standards and Curriculum Section, Training Division, Bureau of Personnel, likewise recognized the need for a manual which would represent the standardized curriculum of these schools. Accordingly, in June, 1943, the preparation of "Naval Ordnance and Gunnery" was authorized, and authors were selected to prepare the manuscript. The first part of the following manual deals largely with naval weapons, and is intended to provide the student with a basic conception of gun design and construction. Emphasis is given to the specific guns that graduates of Naval Reserve Midshipmen's Schools are most likely to encounter upon joining the Fleet. The second part of the manual is concerned with fire control, including the surface and antiaircraft problems. In this case the emphasis is upon director control principles and the particular systems in common use."

Book excerpt: The history of naval artillery is a long and complex one and this highly-illustrated, single-volume work sets out to present a coherent story which will appeal both to the enthusiast as well as to the scholar and expert. It starts with the earliest guns, the bronze-cast cannon, which were cast employing the same technology as used for making church bells. A plethora of guns were soon to develop and along with them a multiplicity of names: basilisk, bombard, culverin, drake, minion, saker, passavolante, serpentine, and many others. By the end of the seventeenth century this muzzle-loading, smoothbore weapon had pretty well reached the zenith of its development and not until the introduction of armour and the explosive shell in the nineteenth century was there any fundamental change. With the development of breech loading and rifled barrels the rate of fire, range and accuracy improved dramatically. Today the navies of the world have fully automatic guns which load, train, lay and fire themselves with deadly accuracy.
