Description

American Attack Aircraft Since 1926 by E.R. Johnson provides a comprehensive historical survey of the various types of aircraft used for air attack missions by the US military since 1926. This concise volume covers four main categories of fixed-wing aircraft: designated attack planes, light and medium bombers, fighter-bombers, and adapted attack aircraft. The book delves into each type of aircraft, detailing its original military requirements, production history, and operational record, often accompanied by photographs, illustrations, and technical specifications. Four appendices provide additional information on aircraft designations, military air unit structures, experimental designs that never entered service, and the evolution of attack aircraft weapons and tactics. With a focus on historical accuracy and detail, this book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in aviation history or military technology.
