Underwater warfare. The evolution of submarines

A new book by naval expert Maksym Palamarchuk immerses us in the history of perhaps the most secretive carriers of naval weapons - submarines.
Submarines began their journey as a means of coastal defense and later turned into a dangerous weapon of modern wars, which has enormous potential, in particular thanks to unmanned vehicles.
The submarine achieved its first combat success during the Civil War in the United States, and in the First and Second World Wars, the actions of submarines already had significant strategic consequences. Providing access to relevant technologies determined the positions of states during the Cold War. The invisible underwater confrontation still affects the course of conflicts, the effectiveness of diplomatic efforts to resolve them, and ultimately the global distribution of power.
