The A-10 was never a favourite amongst the USAF's senior staff & prior to Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in 1990 they had attempted to transfer the aircraft to the US Army & Marine Corps. Reprieved from premature retirement the A-10 would see combat in the Balkans during the mid-1990s & over Iraq in Operations Northern Watch & Southern Watch until Operation Iraqi Freedom began in 2003.

The A-6 Intruder became a true classic of naval aviation over the skies of North Vietnam but the cost was high as 69 Intruders were lost in combat to all causes during the war. This work tells the complete story of these aircraft in combat during the Vietnam War. ...
