Created with
T
he use of air power in
Vietnam would change the way wars were
fought in the twentieth century and beyond.
New technological advances and more sophisticated
weapons made the Vietnam War a testing ground for
the US military, and new tactics and approaches were
used and to varying degrees of success, and introduced
the attack helicopter as a vital weapon. Jet bombers and
fighters were used extensively for the first time in the
history of modern warfare, whilst a few older propeller
driven aircraft also saw a resurgence. There are many
differences of opinion regarding the effectiveness of
the air campaign during the Vietnam War, however,
for aviation historians, enthusiasts and modellers,
the conflict in Southeast Asia produced a plethora of
aircraft types, camouflage schemes, marking options
and weapons loads. So now some of these eclectic types
are brought together in this new ‘AirKraft Modellers
Guide’, created by paint manufacturer Hataka, and
HobbyZone, the people behind Scale Aviation Modeller
International, Model Aircraft Magazine, and the
Modellers Datafile book series. This guide to ‘Fightersand Attack Aircraft of the
Vietnam War’ is the first in a new series of
books, and features no fewer than 20 build projects, which
guide you through building such iconic aircraft as the F-4
Phantom, F-8 Crusader, B-57 Canberra, MiG-21 and F-100
Super Sabre, to name but a few. Brought to you by some of
the best modellers around, each project shows you ‘how-to’
apply camouflage, add detail to the airframes, and looks at
such areas as cockpits, weathering, decaling and painting
ordnance, and details of the war roles of each type. This new
book will be an invaluable resource for anyone interested in
modern combat aircraft, and particularly
those involved in the Vietnam War!ORDER HOTLINE: 44 (0)1234 211245
