The chapters of each volume, are divided into different types of vessels and are shown in chronological order. The following information is included: name of the ship, earlier and later names, usage, ship yard, time in which is was built, time it entered service, length, width, weapons, range of the weapons, time of dive (submarines) and plenty of other important technical information. Also captured are the histories of every single ship in service with the German navy in short form, including the fate of the crew. The behavior of a ship in service (e.g. behavior whilst manouvering or whist in a stormy sea) is also covered. Over hundreds of detail and scale-drawings, showing every modification that occured during the manufacture of a ship's class, as well as hints, how to detect the right sub-type of a certain class. Highly recommended!
