About this ebook
The World’s Greatest Warplanes are the ones that get the job done.
Visionary engineers and inventors have created some of the most impressive fighting machines. RJ Mitchell’s Spitfire and Sydney Camm’s Hurricane fought for control of the skies against Kurt Tank’s FW190 and Willy Messerschmitt’s Bf 109. Roy Chadwick’s Lancaster and Boeing’s mighty B-17 Flying Fortress battled to take the attack to the enemy in dangerous skies.
In the Cold War great names such as the RAF’s Lightning and Vulcan, the US Air Force’s Sabre and Phantom were up against the best from Mikoyan and Gurevich’s Mig factory. And in the last decades the skies have been dominated by the powerhouse American aviation industry. The F-16 is the defender of choice for the West and the amazing B-52 Stratofortress and B2 Spirit stealth bomber provide awesome offensive capability.
In this ebook you will discover all these great military aircraft and many more, aircraft that have dominated the skies for more than a century.
