THE WORLD ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FIGHTER AIRCRAFT
An illustrated history from the early planes of World War I to the supersonic jets of today
In this new, fully updated edition expert author Francis Crosby
traces the development of fighters from World War I to the
present day, and highlights actions in which fighters played a
crucial role. The A–Z sections form an illustrated guide to over
170 fighter aircraft. The first covers aircraft from the pioneering
days of air fighting in World War I through to the early jets at the
end of World War II, and the second focuses on the remarkable
advances of post-World War II, mainly jet, aircraft from 1945 to
the present day. Specification boxes for each aircraft provide
information about the plane’s country of origin, first flight,
power, armament, size, weight and performance. Also included
is a glossary explaining aviation terms. Illustrated with 600
photographs, this is a key reference book for all aircraft enthusiasts.
