AirForces Monthly | June 2015
In the June issue of AirForces Monthly (AFM), looks at the increasing tensions between Russia and NATO. We examine how the Swedish Air Force are training its Gripen pilots, and how the RAF’s Tornado GR4 pilots are learning to fly the mighty ‘Fin’ at RAF Lossiemouth all taking place at a time when it seems as though the Cold War might well be back on!
With operations in Mali and Yemen involving fast jets, ISR platforms, attack helicopters and special forces, AFM provides and overview of on-going military operations in these theatres with exclusive images and accounts directly from those involved in the fighting.
Our Force Report this month examines the Spanish Air Force and asks if it’s now struggling to keep up with NATO requirements after fierce defence cuts have resulted in plan fighter upgrades being delayed.
Alan Warnes talks exclusively to the new Pakistan Air Force Chief of the Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal Sohali Aman.
Aircraft Profile this month examines Iran’s Saeghe (Thunderbolt) and asks if there’s still an old F-5 Freedom Fighter under the skin somewhere?
Extra special for this month is our FREE 16 page US Navy Carriers supplement, which examines all the Carrier Air Wings, squadrons and current deployments.
AFM’s Dave Allport brings you the latest military aviation news from around the world, along with our exclusive Attrition reports.
