"Silent but deadly" - Osprey's "US Nuclear Submarines: The Fast Attack" takes a fresh look at the controversial design and development of the nuclear submarine. The advent of nuclear power transformed the submarine from a slow underwater vessel, incapable of staying submerged for long periods, into a weapon of stealth and endurance. The United States Navy operates the largest fleet of nuclear submarines in the world.
Jim Christley, a former submariner, uses his own experience of serving aboard these vessels and a wealth of technical information to explore the many engineering issues and trade-offs that have dominated the intriguing story of the US nuclear submarine.
