Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Who was Warner Robins, for whom an Air Force base in Georgia was named? "To write a story about General Robins is to write abut the Olden Days'" his widow has remarked, "for Warner Robins was not in the Air Force as it is today."

Night Hunters: The Ac-130s and Their Role in Us Airpower
ISBN: 9781623491192 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 423 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In Night Hunters, air power historian William P. Head provides the first detailed study of the development and deployment of the AC-130 gunship.

What did the Allies actually win in the Gulf War, if anything? Finally, have we learned anything from the Gulf War? Some authors conclude that in retrospect many analysts have become convinced...
