This review is from: Boeing F/A-18 Hornet - Warbird Tech Vol. 31 (Paperback)

The thirty-first volume in Specialty Press' outstanding "WarbirdTech" series, Brad Elward's Boeing F/A-18 Hornet is an exciting, in-depth, profusely illustrated look at a military airplane type that is especially unique because it can be piloted to fight or bomb. In addition to the origin and history of the Hornet, Boeing F/A-18 Hornet also covers this aircraft's deadly weaponry, as well as exhaustive details of its system and that of the Super Hornet OpEval. The YF-17/F-18 prototype models to the Hornet are also scrutinized. A great reference for any aviation buffs with interest in this fascinating fighter plane.
