Gorgeous color photos of fighters through the ages are on the inside covers and the intro sections. However, the main substance of this book are the highly detailed and labeled b/w 3-D cutaway diagrams of some well known fighter aircrafts from the WWI Morane-Saulnier Type N, WWII P-38 Lightning, DeHavilland Mosquito to the modern Dassault Rafale, Saab Gripen, F-22A Raptor and Eurofighter EF2000 Typhoon. Great for fast referencing including a brief history and specs (powerplant, performance, weight, dimensions, and armament) for each fighter. A worthy addition to any fighter enthusiast, historian, or hobbyist's library!!!

A detailed overview of the development of fighter aircraft achieved through detailed pictorial, diagramatic and written analysis of 100 examples. True to form, the authors knowledge of technically important and interesting but little known and often ignored types, as well as the better known classics, is what makes this book really stand out and draws the reader back again and again.

Excellent publication for those interested in Aircraft Cutaways along with its brief history and 3 view of each. For me it filled 37 gaps in my collection of cutaways.

Terrific book. I build models on my computer in 3D and this book is a great resource. The drawings are splendid.

And the text clear. If you find aircraft fascinating, you will enjoy many hours with this book

Excellent, detailed illustrated book of some of the worlds greatest fighters. A must for those who like military aircraft.

Great book! Excellent reference material for artist or fighter plane buff.
