This book offers a sober appraisal of the world trade in naval
weapon systems at a time when recent attacks on merchant shipping
in the Persian Gulf have kept maritime security at the centre of
global attention. At the same time India, outside the international
non-proliferation regime, has become the first-ever customer for a
nuclear attack submarine. In 1987-88, the most expensive and
controversial arms sales were related to naval systems, and yet
while regional navies are busy increasing their firepower, the
traditional naval powers remain dependent on their sea-borne trade.
In particular the book highlights critical areas in which trade in
naval systems differs from the sale of land or air systems, and it
discusses the implications of these differences.
