Watching Congress at Work, November 14, 2005
This review is from: Advanced Submarine Technology and Antisubmarine Warfare (Paperback)
Along about 1990 the Soviet Union was able to buy equipment from Toshiba of Japan and Konigsberg Vaopenfabrikk of Norway that enabled it to produce extremely quiet submarine propellers. In 1990 a hearing was held by the Armed Services Committee of the House of Representatives to discuss advances in submarine technology and the associated changes nedessary to U.S. antisubmarine warfare technology.
This book is the unclassified portion of this hearing. The nature of the questions being asked of the Navy by the committee are wide ranging over several areas including the advanced technologies being developed and otehr things such as the death of a sailor in a battery accident.
All in all, this is an opportunity to see how our Government works. It's quite fascinating.
