Welcome to Warships!
The
fate of land has been long decided at sea. There will always be a romance
for the sea and the sleek warships that have sailed upon it, from the
wooden-hulled ships of the line to the steel hulled battleships. Warships
is a glimpse of some of those men-o-war, particularly those operating in the
Indian Ocean.
Sea warfare is the most
complex of all forms of warfare. The ships, their armament, radar,
counter-measures and anti-submarine warfare capability are all integrated into
one unit. Ships of today will eventually be retired from service, yet some
of their names will carry on in newer ships. The result is an engineering
feat worth photographing for posterity.
Ships have been classified
according to their role, armament and size. Most of the ships photographed
are operational, with two ships being floating museums.
Enjoy the pictures!
