Great Pictures,
By Stephen Andrews (Edmonds, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lock On No. 23 - Lockheed S-3B Viking (Paperback)
As a former crew member of VS-41 in San Diego, this was a very personal buy for me. The great pictures of the S-3 bring back so many wonderful memories of the friends I made in the squadron, and the endless questions I had to my friends (both officer and enlisted) about the mighty War-Hoover. It has a place of honor in my collection.

The only reference book of S3B Viking I've ever heard,
By Nuwat Chanthaworn (Bangkok, Thailand) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lock On No. 23 - Lockheed S-3B Viking (Paperback)
This book provides you over 80 color photos and details which guide you to know about everything on this aircraft which can make you feel like a pilot who checks his aircraft before flight. With the details provided in this book you can build and modify your model more realistic than everybody in the world, but I suggest you to select 1/48 rather than 1/72 which is too small.
