2.0 out of 5 stars
informative but visually lacking,
By Philippe Geril (Ghent, East-Flanders Belgium) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Encyclopedia of modern us military weapons (Paperback)
When going over an encyclopedia, one of the main features you expect to have, next to each informative description of theweapon system is a visual overview, either in a drawn format or with a picture colour or black and white, and this is where this book is lacking. Though the book describes several weapons systems, it fails to deliver as there is too little in the way of visuals. Personally, I would steer those interested in modern military hardware into the direction of the Jane's Military books as they offer what this book lacks

this book is good,
By patrick canning (Vikaresh, Zimbabwe) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Encyclopedia of modern us military weapons (Paperback)
this book covers everything from aegis cruisers to M1A1 tanks. It is a good book. It doesn't go into detail about weapons but it does mention a weapon's stregths weaknesses and performance specs.

GREAT DESCRIPTIONS!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Encyclopedia of modern us military weapons (Paperback)
This book is OUTSTANDING! When my friend bought this for me as a b-day gift I was very pleased, but I was certain it would go into rifles, handguns, and more unit sized weapons but instead it covers everything from rockets to ships. I was not disappointed. Great for future military personel.
