Product Information
This book reveals as never before the military might of the various military aviation forces serving the United States today: the Air force, the Army. The Navy, and the Marine Corps. To create the spectacular images in this book the author and other photographers have flown 'up close and dirty' in and next to enormous bombers such as the all-powerful B-52 and the stealthy B-2 Spirit. They have gone down among the weeds with the tank-busting A-10 Thunderbolt II, have hurtled through the sky with fighters such as the Eagle, Hornet and the all-new Raptor, have watched thousands of gallons of fuel being pumped from massive aerial tankers into even more capacious transport aircraft, and hovered over oceans and dusty battlefields with a wide variety of attack and cargo-carrying helicopters.In this superb, all-colour volume are the exciting results. A collection of immensely powerful photos of the mighty American aircraft that instil 'shock and awe' into any opponent while thrilling aviation enthusiasts the world over. Together with the superb photographs are essential technical specifications and fascinating development/service histories of the aircraft, making Airpower a masterpiece of aviation publishing.Product Identifiers
