Rating:
Summary: Packed with information
Review: Kenneth Werrell has written an excellent account of the US Air Force development in the years 1965 - 1991 and presents a welth of information regarding not only the aircraft but also the various weapons and the tactics used. Although the writer is an expert professional in the field of military aviation the book succeeds marvellosuly in keeping reader's interest with its excellent flow, the numerous little known facts, the strartling technical information and the constant presentation of problems found in real battle and their attempted solutions. It is easily read, well edited and can be surely used as a reference for every enthusiast of the modern jet fighters.
