Specificatii
87 photos, 202 figures and drawings, 60 tables, and 15 maps and
tracks. Recognising the impossibility of improving upon the
(in)famous 5:5:3 ratio of the Washington Naval Treaty when the
expected naval race would begin as the treaty expired, the Imperial
Japanese Navy resorted to a strategy of qualitative superiority to
overcome the American quantitative edge. The IJN succeeded, after
many studies and false starts, in creating the world's most heavily
armed (nine 18.1 main guns in three triple turrets - the largest
calibre ever mounted) and protected (410-mm thick VH belt armor,
660-mm thick front shields of the gun houses - the thickest armour
plates ever mounted) battleships. With a displacement in excess of
70,000 tons their size was unprecedented but despite this
restrictions resulted in defects, which otherwise might have been
avoided; other defects were the result of techniques below the
highest standard. Because the qualities of a battleship were
generally measured by gun power, protection and mobility the
authors have focused upon these items after giving a rough outline
of the design and building processes. The result is probably the
most detailed description based upon Japanese sources published
outside Japan. Stimulated by Gustav Jensen's expanded dissertation
Japans Seemacht and encouraged by Messrs. Erich Groner and Prof.
Jurgen Rohwer, Hans Lengerer began writing on the IJN in 1969. Over
the years more than 50 articles have appeared in magazines like
Marine Rundschau, Marine Forum, Warship and Interconair Aviation e
Marina. After retirement from service in an executive organ,
Lengerer continues to write books and articles using a considerable
amount of time for his hobby. He is also the author of the
privately published Contributions to the History of Imperial
Japanese Warships, referred to in this book, and is presently
working to revise and condense his 250,000-word manuscript
Development of Warship Construction in Japan and to complete A
History of the Imperial Japanese Navy. As hobby researcher at best,
his writings depend heavily upon information supplied by other IJN
fans; they come first therefore. Lars Ahlberg is on active duty
with the Swedish Air Defence Regiment and is a military historian
by avocation. He has written monographs about the IJN battleships
of the Nagato class and the IJN aircraft carrier Taiho. His
articles have appeared in Sveriges Flotta, Warship International
and Okrety Wojenne and for several years he has been the editor of
Contributions to the History of Imperial Japanese Warships. Ahlberg
has also co-authored two books about Swedish regiments: Kungl
Hallands regementes historia 1962-2000 and Kasernerna pa
Galgberget.
