Fighting Cockpits
Jump into the cockpits of fighter aircraft from WWI to modern day. Incredible photography of the MiG, Messerschmitt, Tomcat, and many more.
Modern Military Aircraft
In this engaging and informative approach to modern aircraft, readers take a look inside all the advances in military aircraft technology since World War II, including fighter planes from the United States, NATO, Russia, and more. With detailed diagrams of cockpits, engines, and weapons systems, this book gives readers an up-close and personal view of several impressive aircraft, including the F-15E Strike Eagle, which can travel at over 1,900 miles per hour (3,060 km/h) – more than twice the speed of sound! Dynamic visuals and accessible text offer opportunities to explore both social studies and STEM concepts through this high-interest subject matter.
America's Army and Air Force Airplanes
This book provides a pictorial overview of the progress of American military airplane design from approximately the end of World War I to the present time. It covers all types including attack, pursuit or fighter, cargo, trainer, and other models via a series of type sections. There are introductions to each section followed by photographic coverage along with extensive photo captioning providing highlights of characteristics and service use. Thus over three quarters of a century of Army and Air Force airplanes are displayed. Primary sections include production airplanes and variants, and a following photo gallery section covers experimental models. A few important export military types are also included. The illustrations and text portray in quite dramatic fashion the advances in U.S. military plane design over the period, including progress from "stick and wire" craft to the latest sleek turbine powered types.
The World's Fastest Military Airplanes
Explains how jet planes operate and some of the uses that the military makes of them, describing the design and functioning of such examples as the F-15, the AV-8B Harrier, and the F-22 stealth plane.
Restoration Force
We can all walk into any of the myriad aircraft museums dotted across the world and appreciate the wonderfully restored and preserved exhibits on display. But what about the many gems lovingly brought back to life and hiding away in people’s garages, sheds, barns and gardens? With Gavin Hoffen’s book you become a privileged spectator into a dedicated but often secretive world – to protect their security, names, projects and locations have been limited to the very basics. This is the nostalgic domain of the amateur restorer, hobbyist, and ‘cockpiteer’ of which Gavin is one. Here you will find complete coverage of over 20 projects worldwide with background histories of the aircraft, color photos of the restoration and full information and specifications – be it of cockpit, fuselage, or full aircraft. From Spitfire to Chipmunk, Vulcan to Buccaneer, Piper Aztec to B-52, this is a fascinating insight into an obsession with the romance that aviation once was. A must-see for every aircraft aficionado, and an inspiration for future preservers.
American Military Training Aircraft
The U.S. did not become the world’s foremost military air power by accident. The learning curve—World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, and more recently the war on terror—has been steep. While climbing this curve, the U.S. has not only produced superior military aircraft in greater numbers than its foes, but has—in due course—out-trained them, too. This book provides a comprehensive historical survey of U.S. military training aircraft, including technical specifications, drawings and photographs of each type of fixed and rotary-wing design used over a 98-year period to accomplish the first step of the learning process: the training of pilots and aircrews.
Military Aircraft
Presents a number of illustrated photographs and interesting facts and figures about military aircraft including early fighters and bombers, reconnaissance aircraft, biplanes and triplanes, World War Two fighters such as the P-51 Mustang and Japanese Zero, and the various types of helicopters designed after the war.
