For over 40 years, Warship has been the leading annual resource on the design, development, and deployment of the world's combat ships. Featuring a broad range of articles from a select panel of distinguished international contributors, this latest volume combines original research, new book reviews, warship notes, an image gallery, and much more, maintaining the impressive standards of scholarship and research for which Warship has become synonymous. Detailed and accurate information is the keynote of all the articles, which are fully supported by plans, data tables, and stunning photographs.
The authoritative contributors, along with the sheer level of research that's clearly been undertaken, continue to make the annual editions of Warship a genuine and reliable source of information for anyone interested in naval history and current development trends. -- Dave Woolley * Modelboats *

A superb collection of fascinating essays, beautifully presented and published this series never fails to deliver- and Jordan has already planned next years edition! Very highly recommended. -- Peter Wykeham-Martin * Warship World *
The book is handsomely produced and is extensively furnished with a large number of black and white photographs. It also benefits considerably from some unusually clear line drawings of ship layouts, equipment and charts, many of which have been drawn by the Editor. This was an enjoyable read, with informative articles written by authoritative contributors. Recommended! -- REAR ADMIRAL R. G. MELLY * The Naval Review *
