Название: British Secret Projects : Jet Fighters Since 1950
Автор: Tony Buttler Издательство: Midland Год: 2000 ISBN: 1857800958 Страниц: 178 Формат: pdf в RAR Размер: 51.76МБ Качество: хорошее Язык: английский A large number of fighter projects have been drawn by British companies over the last fifty years, but very few have turned into hardware, and very little has been published about these fascinating "might-have-beens." This book makes extensive use of previously unpublished, primary-source material-much recently declassified. It gives an insight into a secret world where the public has had little idea of what was going on, while at the same time presenting a coherent nationwide picture of fighter development and evolution. Particular emphasis is placed on tender design competitions and some of the events that led to certain aircraft either being canceled or produced. Some of the many and varied types included are the Hawker P.1103/P.1136/P.1121 series, and the Fairey "Delta III". The book includes many illustrations, plus specially commissioned renditions of "might-have-been" types in contemporary markings. For military history enthusiasts. Скачать:
Название: British Secret Projects: Jet Bombers Since 1949
Автор: Tony Buttler Издательство: Midland Год: 2003 ISBN: 185780130X Страниц: 225 Формат: pdf в RAR Размер: 102.98МБ Качество: хорошее Язык: английский This long awaited title is a natural successor to the author's successful volume on fighters. The design and development of the British bomber since World War II is covered in similar depth and again the emphasis is placed on the tender design competitions between projects from different companies. Extensive reference has been made to recently- declassified archives in national and industry collections, which allows many little known projects to be brought together within a full narrative of bomber development. The design backgrounds to the V-Bomber program, Canberra, Buccaneer, Avro 730, TSR.2, Harrier, Jaguar and Tornado are revealed in more detail than has probably ever been published, but attention is also given to anti-submarine types and stillborn programs such as the RAF's first requirement for a low level bomber and the AFVG. The book includes many previously unpublished illustrations plus specially commissioned renditions of might-have-been types in contemporary markings. Keith Woodcock's cover painting shows how the Avro 698 might have looked in service had it not been turned into the famous Vulcan.
