4.0 out of 5 stars Good but mistakes, July 2, 2002

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Jane's Pocket Guide: Modern Military Helicopters (Paperback)

Great and complete book but under the Mi-2 Hoplite it says that the US Army uses it. Also under the Mi-24 and Mi-8 it says similar statements. Maybe in fact the US Army does use these three russian helicopters but not likely we are a license user. Probably captured aircraft, during the gulf war the US captured a Mil Mi-24.Anyway great book and i encourage everybody interested to get one.

This review is from: Jane's Pocket Guide: Modern Military Helicopters (Paperback)

I am an aviation enthusiast and I am quite happy with this book. This is the fourth Jane's guide I own and I must say it fulfilled my expectations, even though I would have liked a little bit more detail on each model discussed.
