The application of gas turbines for propulsion of navy ships for all nations continues to increase at an accelerating rate. World navies which use gas turbines include the United States, Great Britain, the Soviet Union and Japan. Therefore, a survey of the principal gas turbine applications in world navies was conducted. This survey revealed that more than 43 world navies now use gas turbines for ship propulsion. It also indicated that more than 2,700 gas turbines have been (or soon will be) installed in world navy ships. This represents a total worldwide navy application exceeding 38 million installed horsepower.
