Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Submarine Mines and Torpedoes: As Applied to Harbour Defence Many other authorities have been quoted and are duly acknowledged in the text. My own inventions connected with submarine mining are perhaps noticed too prominently, but it was necessary to illustrate the various and necessary contrivances by some special patterns, and it not unfrequently occurred that I was compelled to describe my own patterns or none at all, the Government gear being treated as secret and confidential. For a similar reason, it being impossible to indicate the defects of our service arrangements with precision, I have been compelled to attack their intricacy in general terms only. On matters connected with the personnel and the purchase of stores, however, it has been possible to go into detail; and if some of the remarks appear to be harsh, my excuse must be that the subjects required it. Minced language is not a desirable form of expression when the writer believes that the efficiency of an important item in National Defence is at stake.

Book Synopsis A Military History of Victoria, Australia 1803-1945 by : Bob Marmion
Download or read book A Military History of Victoria, Australia 1803-1945 written by Bob Marmion and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a case study of possibly the most complex defensive system in Australia between 1803 and 1945. Defending Victoria was such a wide ranging and demanding task that the colony, and later the state, of Victoria was known as the Gibraltar of the South. This book fills a major gap in Australian military and naval history. Using Victoria as a case study, the book shows how defence developed from the idea of a basic sand fort emanating from a fear of French invasion during the early 19th century, into a complex, modern three-dimensional defensive system incorporating air, land and sea defences as well as radar and secret defence technology by the 1940s. The book is not a simple narration of facts and events, but a substantial addition to Australian military history, on account of its extensive analysis of the political, social, economic and technological factors which impacted defence over many decades of the 19th century.

Book Synopsis Unmanned Systems of World Wars I and II by : H. R. Everett
Download or read book Unmanned Systems of World Wars I and II written by H. R. Everett and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2015-11-13 with total page 767 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive technical history of air, land, sea, and underwater unmanned systems, by a distinguished U.S. Navy roboticist. Military drones have recently been hailed as a revolutionary new technology that will forever change the conduct of war. And yet the United States and other countries have been deploying such unmanned military systems for more than a century. Written by a renowned authority in the field, this book documents the forgotten legacy of these pioneering efforts, offering the first comprehensive historical and technical accounting of unmanned air, land, sea, and underwater systems. Focusing on examples introduced during the two world wars, H. R. Everett meticulously traces their development from the mid-nineteenth century to the early Cold War. A pioneering Navy roboticist, Everett not only describes these systems in detail but also reverse-engineers the designs in order to explain how they operated in real-world conditions of the time. More than 500 illustrations—photographs, drawings, and plans, many of them never before published—accompany the text. Everett covers the evolution of early wire-guided submersibles, tracing the development of power, propulsion, communication, and control; radio-controlled surface craft, deployed by both Germany and Great Britain in World War I; radio-controlled submersibles; radio-controlled aircraft, including the TDR-1 assault drone project in World War II—which laid the groundwork for subsequent highly classified drone programs; and remote-controlled ground vehicles, including the Wehrmacht's Goliath and Borgward demolition carriers.
