Publisher Description: The A-7 Corsair II was designed as the replacement for the A-4 Skyhawk. It became known as "the bomb truck" for its large bomb-carrying capability. More importantly, it was revered for it's cutting-edge bomb-dropping accuracy. Before the age of the "smart bomb," the A-7 was able to deliver ordnance on-target with consistent "shacks," thanks to new computers. This latest edition of the Illustrated series showcases the Corsair in Navy and USAF service, with dozens of color photos and paintings by the author. It contains many pilot narratives of flying the Corsair II in war and peace. |
