Description
The Soviet Navy's Auxiliary Fleets: A Comprehensive History Seventy-five years after the end of World War II, the details of Soviet ships and their activities remain shrouded in mystery. This third volume of a series brings together reliable data on over 6,200 vessels, including battleships, river gunboats, and icebreakers. These auxiliary ships played a significant role in supporting the war effort, despite not being frontline fighting vessels. The book covers a range of topics, from fleet support types like oilers and tugs to unsung heroes like the salvage fleet, which was crucial for generating foreign currency during the 1930s. Even harbor service craft are included, providing a comprehensive picture of the Soviet Navy's auxiliary fleets. With its detailed listings and comprehensive coverage, this book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in naval history.
