SSN (book)

SSN (1996) is a novel by Tom Clancy following the missions of the US Navy nuclear attack submarine (SSN) USS Cheyenne during a fictional war with China over the Spratly Islands.
The novel continues the Clancy tradition of exceptional attention to detail, particularly regarding the description of military equipment. It is however different on one important way, true to the title almost the entire book describes the operations of Cheyenne. Other Clancy books follow a more global path, featuring sub-plots, entire military operations, politics and personal sub-plots.
