Reseña del editor: This book details the formation and problems encountered by wartime RAF Coastal Command, the personalities involved and in particular the opposition that A.M.Joubert faced in establishing a credible war machine against the odds, including the Air Staff! He knew that the establishment of a Coastal Command and the introduction of ASV radar and other technical advances was the only way to contain the U-Boat menace. The book: Explains the important part played by Bletchley Park in de-crypting the German W/T codes and U-Boat operational instruction messages. Details the development of ASV and Leigh Light for night operations. Documents the deployment of new heavy calibre weapons and depth-charges, and the American Mk 24 Acoustic Homing Torpedo and Sonobouys.
