McDonnell Douglas A-4 Skyhawk (Crowood Aviation) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I like A-4, so I purchased this book. I know A-4 has not a good looking like Tomcat or Eagle. I just need some information about its history, combat record and variation. This book match my requirement. Its character is plenty. In combat record, this book introduces all wars which A-4 took part in, for example Vietnam War, Middle East War, Falklands Islands War and Gulf War. But this book like its brother, Panavia Tornado, another book from same publisher, includes few pictures, just has four pages color pictures, no drawing. I think this layout could not match someone's requirement. And there are publishing wrong in a few pages. But if you are a Skyhawk fans, don't hesitate to buy it. It is the complete Skyhawk's book you can find in market, of course except pictures.

Conceived as a replacement for the AD-1 Skyraider, Ed Heinemann's Skyhawk was capable of proving itself in the skies above Vietnam, Israel, Kuwait and the Falkland Islands. So impressive was its speed and agility, the Skyhawk was often referred to by pilots as "Heinemann's Hotrod." McDonnell Douglas is the story of one of the finest naval aircraft ever built, told by an aviation enthusiast whose work is published in several leading international military aviation journals and magazines.
