Description

This is a print on demand copy and is not an original copy.

America's Navy lists all the US Navy warships in service between 1955 and the present day, as well as some US Coast Guard ships and other vessels. It is designed as a sourcebook for Harpoon, fifth edition, but it can also be used as a general reference.

Organized as a collection of annexes, Annex A provides statistics on ships as built, and any modifications and refits over time, sometimes many times. Annexes C and on give detailed weapons and sensors characteristics, including guns, missiles, ASW weapons, radars, sonars, with all the information needed to use them in a Harpoon scenario. A new feature of this edition is information on air groups used by aviation ships. Annex R, by Andy Doty, is the most complete list available anywhere, and provides data on units, aircraft types, and number of aircraft for each deployment.

In addition to real-world platforms, many canceled or proposed ships and their systems are also described. The book also provides information on land-based surface-to-air missiles system specifications and organization. Supplemental annexes list ship classifications and factors used to convert weapons and sensor information into game data.
