About this copy
This is the first edition of this Ian Allan 'Modern Combat Ships' title, covering the design, construction, machinery, sensors and weapon systems of the Royal Navy's Type 42 destroyer class, including a chapter on the Argentine Navy's Type 42 ships and their role in the Falklands War. The copyright page is dated 1985 with no later printing noted. This is an ex-library copy from West Sussex Libraries, retaining a withdrawal stamp, class number label and library pocket/card to the front endpapers, along with a tape repair to the inner dust jacket flap.
Condition
