United States Navy and Marine Corps Aviation Squadron Lineage, Insignia, and History: Volume 2: Marine Scout-Bomber, Torpedo-Bomber, Bombing & Attack
ISBN: 9780764347559 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Tilt Rotor Aircraft: An Illustrated History
ISBN: 9780764342691 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book describes in superb pictures and text the fascinating genre of tilt rotor airplanes. Since the first helicopters flew, attempts have been made to create a link between the mobility of the rotorcraft and the speed of the winged airplane. At first these attempts failed simply because of constructive difficulties, since the technology had not advanced far enough. The progressive development, though, created in the past decades new possibilities, and thus led to the V-22 "Osprey," which has meanwhile been produced in series and is used by the U.S. forces. A civilian model, the...

Air Dominance
ISBN: 9789380502199 / Angielski / Twarda / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the continuously changing nature of war, the terminologies in the military forces of the world also change, often more than war itself, mostly introducing esoteric vocabulary. The term "air dominance" in this context is of comparatively recent origin. The effect and outcome of war in and from the air has come round full circle, from command of the air a hundred years ago to air superiority in World War II to favourable air situation to "air dominance" now. Most people who use this term actually use it in lieu of air superiority. Air-to-air dominance of the adversary is certainly crucial...

The Chinese Air Threat: Understanding the Reality
ISBN: 9789383649846 / Angielski / Twarda / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Chinese Air Force (also known as the People's Liberation Army Air Force - PLAAF) is the third largest air force in the world, with an inventory of almost 2,200 combat aircraft. Against this, the Indian Air Force has a strength of about 860 combat aircraft. Does this make the PLAAF a giant in front of the IAF? The PLAAF may be having an advantage in terms of numbers but mere numbers do not tell the full story. The Chinese Air Force cannot deploy all these aircraft against India. In a meticulously researched analysis, the author argues that PLAAF will have serious limitations in achieving...

The Quest for Relevant Air Power: Continental European Responses to the Air Power Challenges of the Post-Cold War Era
ISBN: 9781907521645 / Angielski / Twarda / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Christian Anrig examines the responses of France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden to the challenges of air power in the last two decades, His examination is both instructive and disheartening. Anyone who is detailed to work alongside these air forces will benefit considerably from understanding how and why they do what they do. Sadly, the author has only too clearly identified the national features which, with one or two exceptions, are likely to inhibit the creation of European air power in the foreseeable future. The author brings deep scholarship to his study, reinforced by his...

Air and Sea Power in World War I : Combat and Experience in the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Navy
ISBN: 9781780761510 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Great War tore the fabric of Europe apart, killing over 35 million men and challenging the notion of heroism in war. Air and Sea Power in World War I focuses on the experience of World War I from the perspective of British pilots and sailors themselves, to demonstrate that the army-centric view of war studies has been too limited. The Royal Flying Corps, created in 1912, adapted quickly to the needs of modern warfare, driven by the enthusiasm of its men. In contrast, the lack of modernization in the Royal Navy, despite the unveiling of HMS Dreadnought in 1906, undermined...
