By A Customer
It has graphs, charts and detailed maps. All the info you wanted on planes and fighters is here. If you like modern planes, you'll love this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars good overview, February 26, 2005
By Chris Virgin (St. Louis, MO) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I'm an aerospace grad student and I want to work for a defense contractor, so I figured I'd start trying to educate myself on fighter design.

This book has a lot of basics that are easy to understand for everyone, not just us "rocket scientists". I find the authors style a little bland, but that might be due to my familiarity with the subject matter. Color pictures would help spice things up.

Overall I think its a good book for anyone interested in the science behind fighter planes.
