Reviews

Henk (U.S. Air War College) is well qualified to reveal the development of South Africa's armaments industry. South Africa's Achievement in the arms industry is astonishing, for under apartheid it faced limited resources and international sanctions. Yet the regime managed to foster manufacturing of excellent weapons in a short time (1976?89) and without export markets....Apartheid is gone and South Africa has changed; nuclear bombs have been dismantled, the arms manufacturing reorganized but the industrypreserved. Summing Up: RECOMMENDED. Graduate students and practitioners.
