The 'Hamlyn History of Military Aviation' offers a comprehensive account of the development of the great aircraft and airforces of the past, present and future. It covers all aspects of military aviation from balloons and the Sopwith Camel to the Stealth Bomber and unmanned fighters. It also explores the development of tactics such as the Blitzkrieg, and explains how control of the skies helped to win wars in the Pacific and the Middle East. The humanitarian role of airforces in Berlin in the 1950s and Bosnia in the 1990s is analysed, and specifications and artworks of the top 50 important warplanes ever built are included. |
