Condition: New. 48 pages. The HU-16 Albatross was the last important amphibian flown by the United States military services. It also had the distinction of becoming the most used amphibian by different air forces around the world, no less than 21 air arms having it on their complement, at some time or other, from the mid-1950s to 1995. The Albatross was flown in a variety of roles but principally in its designated tasks of Search and Rescue and anti-submarine warfare. It participated in the Korean and in the Vietnam Wars, and was utilised for clandestine missions during the peak of the Cold War. The crews of the unarmed Albatrosses very often risked their lives to save the lives of others, not only fighting against the elements, but in many instances coming under enemy fire when carrying out rescue operations in war zones. Yet, its record and the efforts of its crews remained mostly unsung, because the combat types usually gain all the glamour. In this latest Warpaint title, Charles Stafrace gives an account of the Albatross s origins, production, and operational record in peace as well as in war, complete with serials, versions used, and squadron information, not only in United States service but also in those of the 21 other air arms. Colour and Blk/Wht photos, color profiles and scale drawings. Brand new 11 x 8 paperback. 14oz.

Condition: New. 60 pages. Illustrated with 100 color and 38 b/w photos plus 30 color profiles (including a single 5-view plate). Based on experience gained during WWII, the US Navy realized new needs for carrier task force support by dedicated anti-submarine warfare, airborne early warning and effective shore-to-ship aerial communication aircraft. Grumman, a traditional supplier of naval aircraft, was quick to respond and developed a successful trio of shipboard, twin-engined, unpretentious-looking aircraft - 1st came the S2F Tracker (hunter-killer ASW platform) which spawned the TF-1 Trader (ship-to-shore and ship-to-ship communications courier) and the WF-2 Tracer (AEW variation with dorsal radome disk). These 3 designs gave the US Navy the lead over all other navies in terms of flexibility, fleet protection and battle management. Includes description of foreign service, squadron and serial number tables, 1/72 scale multi-view drawings and modeler's list of kits, accessories and decals. Brand new 9 x 11 paperback. 14oz.

Condition: New. 60 pages. A detailed history with 115 color and b/w photos, plans, walk around details and color profiles. The Bristol Britannia, known as the Whispering Giant because of its silent engines, was the world's first long-range turboprop-powered aircraft. It was built for the Royal Air Force as well as for civil airlines, and in time became renowned for its reliability. However, its gestation period was not easy, and its saga was one of sadness and disappointment, so that it entered service a decade after the first specification had been issued. Brand new 8 x 11 paperback. 14oz.

Even before Pearl Harbor the US Navy realized that it would be hard for its existing fighters to deal with Japan's A6M Zero. The situation was such that in June 1941 the US Navy placed orders with Grumman's 'Iron Works' for the F6F Hellcat before the first prototype had even flown. It was the right decision - the new fighter, although much larger and heavier than the Zero, proved to be the latter's nemesis, so that the American fighter's better fire-power, sturdiness, range and speed more than matched the Zero's agility. It was also timely, as the Hellcat remained the main carrier fighter of the USN throughout the rest of WWII and established air superiority in the Pacific. In barely two years of war it destroyed no less than 5,271 enemy aircraft of the 6,477 claimed by the US fighters, attaining a fantastic kill-to-loss ratio of 19.1:1. The Hellcat was also used by the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm, and in the postwar period it saw service with the French Aéronavale, which used them in Indochina, as well as with the Uruguayan Navy. Brand new 11 x 8 paperback. 14oz.

Condition: New. 70 pages. The Avenger torpedo bomber was yet another sturdy naval design from the Grumman 'Ironworks' - in fact it was the heaviest single-engine aircraft of the Second World War. Following a less than stellar debut at the Battle of Midway in June of 1942, Avengers would go on to compile an outstanding combat record. However, this would not be the extent of the Avenger's success as its ample fuselage made the versatile aircraft a suitable platform for many roles - including conventional bomber, search and rescue, cargo ferry, anti-submarine, airborne early warning and electronic counter measures. Includes a complete and detailed history (including all TBF and GM-built TBM variants); 'In Detail' photo section; model kit and accessory list, production list, units assignments and comprehensive technical specifications. Illustrated with full color artwork and profiles, detailed 1/72 scale drawings and more than 90 photographs. Brand new 11 x 8 paperback. 16oz.

Condition: New. 72 pages. The PBY Catalina was the best known flying boat of WWII. Remembered for its ruggedness and resilience, it is no wonder that from its introduction in US Navy service in 1936 and throughout its continued use by other air forces into the 1980s, it distinguished itself as one of the most versatile military aircraft ever built. Conceived as a patrol bomber, during its military lifetime it carried out such disparate duties as torpedo bomber, convoy escort, anti-submarine warfare, long-range reconnaissance, SAR, night bombing, level bombing and strafing. The Catalina was built both as a flying boat and as an amphibian, and owing to it continued use after the war in both military and civil roles, its fame has only increased. Illustrated with full color artwork and profiles, detailed scale drawings and more than 120 photographs. Brand new 11 x 8 paperback. 16oz.
