The possibility of the USAF losing air supremacy over the Korean Peninsula was unacceptable. The 4th Fighter Wing got the call for combat in Korea. They were made up of a combination of new pilots right out of jet training and the older combat veterans of World War II vintage. This combination of pilot types wrote and re-wrote the text books on jet warfare. Of the 40 jet aces that the war produced, the 4th Wing boasted 24 of them. This book details these incredible pilots and the planes they flew.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 248mmItem Length: 184mmItem Width: 7mmItem Weight: 314gAuthor: Warren ThompsonIllustrator: Mark Styling, Mark PostlethwaiteContributor: Mark Styling (Illustrated by), Mark Postlethwaite (Illustrated by)Genre: HistoryTopic: Military History, Law & PoliticsBook Series: Aircraft of the AcesRelease Year: 2006 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
