Combat Aircraft Journal Magazine AirForces of the World: Vol 2 Edición especial

The 2nd edition of AirForces of the World, from the makers of AirForces Monthly and AirForces Intelligence, brings coverage of Europe's naval air power. From carrier-based fast jets to fixed-wing maritime patrol aircraft and helicopters, the region’s maritime air components are reviewed in detail in this 100-page special publication, with extensive orders of battle for every flying unit. Our correspondents also profile a select group of naval air forces squadrons and missions in Eastern and Western Europe with profiles of individual aircraft types and units.
