In the years after World War II, new guided missile technology
offered surface ships the chance to destroy airborne threats from
afar, thereby preserving their role in naval warfare. This book
examines the technology and combat performance of Britain's guided
missile destroyers over half a century. Uniquely among modern
destroyers, three of these classes have been tested in battle
against the aircraft and missiles of another modern navy - in the
Falklands War - as well as being deployed during the Gulf War.
Written by an expert on British naval technology, this book assess
the changing technology of the Royal Navy's destroyers over half a
century, including an examination of the Royal Navy's newest and
most capable warship, the Type 45.
