Fregaty rakietowe typu Oliver Hazard Perry - ORP Gen. K. Pułaski i ORP Gen. T. Kościuszko
In January 1999, the United States and Poland agreed to transfer two frigates to Poland. This was meant to help the Polish Navy learn about Western equipment and standards and enable cooperation with NATO and operations beyond the Baltic Sea.
ORP Gen. K. Pułaski (272) is an Oliver Hazard Perry-class missile frigate, formerly the American USS Clark (FFG-11). ORP Gen. T. Kościuszko (273) is also a frigate of this class, formerly USS Wadsworth (FFG-9).
The main tasks of these frigates include detecting and combating submarines, air and surface targets, protecting sea routes, and conducting anti-terrorist operations.
The book describes in detail this important type of 20th-century warship. It presents the technical construction of the frigates and their use in military operations worldwide. It is a valuable source of knowledge for naval enthusiasts, historians, and military hobbyists.
The book contains detailed technical and tactical descriptions, illustrations and photographs showing the construction and operation of the ships, analysis of military operations involving these frigates, and was written by a renowned author specializing in military history.
