{"product_id":"green-william-complete-book-of-fighters-9781858337777","title":"Complete Book of Fighters","description":"This book is truly a \"FIRST\" in aviation publishing. The authors have undertaken the monumental task of recording the history of every type of fighter aircraft that has ever been flown. From internationally renowned warplanes to obscure prototypes that may not have survived their first flights, they are all here [up to 1994], listed alphabetically by manufacturer's name for ease of reference. The text is complemented by rare historical photographs, precise general arrangement drawings, colour profiles, and fabulously detailed cutaways. A work of such scope has never been attempted before, and it is likely to stand as the unrivalled reference work for years to come. In the eighty or so years that the fighter genus has been in existence, nearly 1,700 different aircraft types have progressed from the drawing board to an actual first flight. Many of them have continued to full-scale production, some to win enduring fame in combat conditions; others have sunk back into obscurity, perhaps never developing beyond a first prototype. Now for the first time, detailed information on all these aircraft - the famous, the notorious, and the virtually unknown - is gathered together in one compendious volume. Authors William Green and Gordon Swanborough have spent more than 20 years researching this subject, and this 608-page volume is the culmination of their painstaking labours. The text provides succinct information on the development, variants, and production history of every fighter type flown to date. Precise specifications round off each entry. Just as remarkably, this book also boasts an unprecedented array of illustrations","brand":"Bramley Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53876466188630,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/green-william-complete-book-of-fighters-9781858337777","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
