Book excerpt: Acquisition of a United States Navy (USN) surface combatant constituted a significant change in naval policy direction for Australia, which had hitherto purchased its warships based on British designs of the Royal Navy (RN). Overall, the study spans a period of approximately half a century of considerable change for the RAN. It is the first examination of the impact of acquiring this new class of ships for the RAN from the United States. This examination also constitutes a case study of the influence which such a major force structure decision can have on a medium sized Navy.
Download or read book Anglo Australian Naval Relations 1945 1975 written by Mark Gjessing and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-06 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines Anglo-Australian naval relations between 1945-75, a period of great change for both Australia and Great Britain and their respective navies. It explores the cultural and historical ties between the Royal Navy and the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), the efficacy of communications between the services, and the importance of personal relations to the overall inter-service relationship. The author assesses the dilemmas faced by Great Britain associated with that nation’s declining power, and the impact of the retreat from ‘East of Suez’ on the strategic relationship between the United Kingdom and Australia. The book also considers operational co-operation between the Royal Navy and the RAN including conflicts such as the Korean War, the Malayan Emergency, and confrontation with Indonesia, as well as peacetime pursuits such as port visits and the testing of atomic weapons in the 1950s. Co-operation in matters of personnel and training are also dealt with in great detail, along with the co-operation between the Royal Navy and the RAN in equipment procurement and design and the increased ability of the RAN to look to non-British sources for equipment procurement. The book considers the impact of stronger Australian-American ties on the RAN and appraises the role it played in the conflict in Vietnam.

Download or read book British Destroyers Frigates written by Norman Friedman and published by Seaforth Publishing. This book was released on 2012-10-22 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Second World War the old categories of destroyer and frigate have tended to merge, a process that this book traces back to the radically different 'Tribal' class destroyers of 1936. It deals with the development of all the modern destroyer classes that fought the war, looks at the emergency programmes that produced vast numbers of trade protection vessels - sloops, corvettes and frigates - then analyses the pressures that shaped the post-war fleet, and continued to dominate design down to recent years. Written by America's leading authority, it is an objective but sympathetic view of the difficult economic and political environment in which British designers had to work, and benefits from the author's ability to compare and contrast the US Navy's experience. Norman Friedman is renowned for his ability to explain the policy and strategy changes that drive design decisions, and his latest book uses previously unpublished material to draw a new and convincing picture of British naval policy over the previous seventy years and more. Hugely successful with enthusiasts and professionals alike from its first publication in 2006, this is the book's third edition.
