Andy Evans from SAM Publications has sent us news of a new book, ‘Carrier Strike, US Naval Air Power at Sea’.
‘Carrier Strike, US Naval Air Power at Sea’
An essential guide to the combat aircraft of the modern United States Navy & Marine Corps.
The aircraft carrier maintains a unique presence amongst the military forces of the world. Those who have them, through the combination of air and sea power, possess the capability to project power anywhere across the globe. ‘Carrier Strike’ looks at this well-honed weapon in its prime, and details the most potent naval aviation force of the late 20th and 21st Century, the United States Navy. With more aircraft embarked on a single aircraft carrier than can be fielded by many small nations, ‘Carrier Strike’ looks at these fighting machines, their combat roles and the weapons they employ in ensuring that the US Navy maintains its capability at the ‘Tip of the Spear’.
‘Carrier Strike’ gives the reader an ‘in-action’ look at a host of US Navy and US Marine Corps aircraft, such as the formidable ‘F-14 Tomcat’, the mighty ‘F-4 Phantom’, the unique ‘AV-8 Harrier’ and the versatile F/A-18 Hornet. Divided into four sections Carrier Strike brings you ‘Strike Fighters’ which details the front line aircraft such as the Phantom, the Tomcat, Intruder, Corsair, Harrier, Hornet and Super Hornet.’ ‘Air Support’ then looks at the vital support provided by the amongst others the EA-6 Prowler, EA-18 Growler, S-3 Viking and ES-3 Shadow, E-2 Hawkeye, CH-46 Sea Knight, MH-53 Sea Dragon and C-2 Greyhound. Then ‘Operations’ ’takes a look at the US Navy and Marines in action during ‘Desert Storm’, ‘Iraqi Freedom’ and finally ‘Carrier Air Groups’ brings details of some of the US Navy’s Aircraft Carriers and the squadrons embarked.
‘Carrier Strike’ – is a must have for any aviation enthusiast!
