Coolest Modelers Tools (FMCD-15) Rusty White (9 pgs) $11.95

USS TENNESSEE in World War II by Signal/Squadron

By Clifton Simmons. The USS Tennessee (BB-43) was commissioned on 3 June 1920 and is one of the most under-celebrated battleships in the history of the U.S. Navy. She was at Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941, and she was a participant in the last battleship vs. battleship battle in naval history - the Battle of Surigao Strait, 24-25 October 1944. She survived World War II and went on to serve her country until she was decommissioned on 14 February 1947. Illustrated with more than 200 photographs and detailed drawings, this book tells the story of the great battleship through interviews with the veterans who fought her. 80pages. order # SS6094 price $16.95

They were there at the right time with the resources so desperately needed. Skillfully details the development and operational history of the three Yorktown-class carriers.

US Nuclear Subs in Action. The submarine service has long been called the 'silent service,' not because of its crews’ reticence concerning their jobs and their 'home,' but because today’s US Navy submarines are so very quiet and virtually undetectable. Beginning with the discoveries of the German Type XXI Undersea Boat (U-Boat), the author traces the development of U.S. nuclear attack subs from their infancy through the Virginia class, whose namesake was commissioned in 2004. More than 100 photographs, 8 color profiles and line drawings; 50 pages. Order No.# SS4029. $13.95

ON DECK#3 - USS OHIO CLASS SUBMARINE

Ohio Class SSBN on Deck. Since its inception in 1960, strategic deterrence has been the sole mission of the fleet ballistic missile submarine (SSBN), which provides the nation's most survivable and enduring nuclear strike capability. The eighteen submarines of the Ohio class replaced aging fleet ballistic missile submarines built in the 1960s and are far more capable. Carrying twenty-four Trident missiles each, the Ohios carry fifty percent of all US strategic deterrent nuclear warheads and provide the sea-based 'leg' of the US strategic deterrent triad. An unprecedented bow-to-stern look at this critical US weapon system with more than 200 color and b/w photos, line drawings and 8 color profiles; 80 pages. Order No. #SS5603 Price $14.95

U.S. Navy Floatplanes in Action WWII
By Al Adcock.


Before the advent of radar and other electronic devices aboard naval vessels, the duties of searching for enemy fleets and the spotting of naval gunfire fell upon the floatplane scouts. These small one- and two-place catapult-launched aircraft - the Curtis SOC Seagull, Vought OS2U Kingfisher, Curtiss SO3C Seamew, and Curtiss SC Seahawk - were the 'eyes of the fleet' during World War II, and some continued to serve until as late as 1949. More than ninety photos, ten color profiles, black-and-white line drawings, color covers.
Fifty pages, soft cover, landscape format. Order # SS1203  $11.95

Gato-Class Submarines in Action


American submarines were a decisive element in winning WWII in the Pacific, accounting for more than half of the nearly 10 million tons of Japanese naval and merchant shipping lost during the war, while also carrying out such other important duties as pilot rescue, reconnaissance and espionage. The burden of the submarine war from 1942 until victory in 1945 was borne by the US Navy's Gato-class submarines (including Balao and Tench variants). Many of these subs continued to serve after receiving postwar refits in the US and foreign navies. More than 100 b/w photos, 6 color profiles, line drawings and color covers; 50 pages.  Order # SS4028   $11.95 (Soon to be available in Adobe - Jan 2007)

CAMOUFLAGE 2 FLEET CARRIERS

Our newly re-printed camouflage 2, which has been out of print for several years is now available in CD format. This companion to our Camouflage 1 (see above) covers the US Navy's Fleet Carriers of WW2. This book goes into great detail on the dazzle camouflage applied to Fleet and Light Carriers. Camouflage 2 has been expanded and with over 143 photographs!! Each chapter is built around an official USN master design drawing. Each carrier (wearing that specific design) is then shown in numerous photographs, enabling the dazzle pattern to be viewed from several different angles. This includes aerial as well as sea level views.

Most photographs have never before been seen. Some are action pictures, and some full page. Some are invaluable close-ups showing structure, radar and rigging details. Additionally, there is a special supplemental chapter. It updates those schemes (discussed in the first book) of which we have uncovered material.

Battleship Massachusetts

OMPBB57.jpg - 77132 Bytes
Technical Reference 2

By Randall Shoker

The Battleship Massachusetts and her sisters represented the peak of treaty designed battleships. Their unique design gave them both the protection and speed they needed to perform the duties that were envisioned for them in the late 1930's. Massachusetts went on to have one of the best combat records of any United States battleship of World War II. Fortunately for us she was preserved as a war memorial in Fall River, Massachusetts, where she is today.

Technical Reference 2 is perfect bound with a full color cover and full color ship camouflage profiles on the back. Also included is a set of 35 X 23 pull-out 1/350th scale blue prints of Massachusetts drawn by Tom Walkowiak of The Floating Drydock. We have expanded the original 56 page format to 64 pages printed on our deluxe 80lb high gloss paper, and have packed in more technical data and drawings (20) than before, including a full page cutaway of her 16 inch turrets! An exciting feature of this book is several series of time lapse photos to show equipment changes. We found three photos from almost the exact same angle and were able to contrast the subtle changes from her original outfitting in the summer of 1942, her big refit in 44 and her post war refit. A photo copy of the 1942 refit page is on a thumbnail below. This book is full of info, and it contains 85 photos (including 22 full page photos of the ship), both from the National Archives and from the ship today. Order today and add it to your collection.

Battleship and Cruiser Aircraft of the United States Navy 1910-1949

Price: $49.95
William T. Larkins
ISBN: 0764300881
Size: 8 1/2" x 11"
Illustrations: over 400 b/w paragraphs
Pages: 272
Binding: Hard Cover

This thorough study of the history, development and service of floatplanes carried on battleships and cruisers documents a long neglected subject for the first time in over 400 photographs. From the 1920s through World War II, aircraft operating from catapults were used for spotting gunfire and scouting ahead of the fleet. Flying these planes was unique and the dramatic launching and recovery operations are covered by both photographs and text. Colors and markings are detailed and special attention has been paid to images showing catapult and ship details for both the ship and aircraft modeler. The assignment of all aircraft by type, totals, squadrons and ship is given annually from 1942 to 1949. In addition to rare photos of all of the experimental aircraft that were tested for this purpose, an addition chapter covers floatplanes used on small ships and submarine.
