V & W Destroyers A Developmental History
Opis
The revolutionary battleship Dreadnought of 1906 brought together in one package the new technology of steam turbines and all-big-gun armament; in doing so she rendered all other capital ships then afloat obsolete. Ten years later the V & W class did to destroyers what the dreadnoughts had done to battleships, and set a completely new and higher standard of technology.
