U.S. Jet Fighters Since 1945

The fighters and fighter-bombers of America's Air Force, Naval and Marine units have been at the forefront of military air operations and developments since the Second World War and for this reason are avidly studied.
This pictorial survey offers a very special collection of rare photographs, many featuring aircraft 'in action', along with the authors' pertinent captioning which succinctly describes the role of each aircraft and its position in the evolution of modern air warfare.
By covering prototypes, adapted designs and lesser marks and referring to the full range of post-war theatres of air action, Robert Dorr has compiled a valuable illustrated reference for enthusiasts, historians, modellers and preservationists.
