Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Recent attacks on merchant shipping in the Persian Gulf have kept maritime security at the centre of global attention. In addition India has become the first-ever customer outside the non-proliferation regime for a nuclear attack submarine. This book offers a sober re-appraisal of the world trade in nuclear weapons against the background of recent developments. In particular it highlights critical areas in which trade in naval systems differs from the sale of land or air systems, and it discusses the implications of these differences.
MoreLong description:
This book offers a sober appraisal of the world trade in naval weapon systems at a time when recent attacks on merchant shipping in the Persian Gulf have kept maritime security at the centre of global attention. At the same time India, outside the international non-proliferation regime, has become the first-ever customer for a nuclear attack submarine. In 1987-88, the most expensive and controversial arms sales were related to naval systems, and yet while regional navies are busy increasing their firepower, the traditional naval powers remain dependent on their sea-borne trade. In particular the book highlights critical areas in which trade in naval systems differs from the sale of land or air systems, and it discusses the implications of these differences.
'Ian Anthony has written an interesting book which starts with a succinct introduction to the history and background of the naval arms trade. The sources and references for each chapter are well-presented. It is of interest to all who have a taste for naval history, and it is a must for those who engage in the naval arms trade.'
Lindsay Bryson, Admiral, The RUSI Journal
