Grumman A-6 Intruder (Osprey Air Combat Series)
199 pages. Index. Glossary. Profusely illustrated with reproductions of black and white photos and twelve in color. "The Intruder remains the only carrier-based attack aircraft which can penetrate an enemy's defences and strike his heartland in the worst of weather, in the black of darkness. The EA-6B Prowler carries out a difficult mission of equal importance, confounding an enemy's radars and jamming his communications. This work reveals new secrets about this well-known but little understood aircraft. Intruder and Prowler pilots, crew members and maintenance people contributed their stories to this history." - back cover. Clean and unmarked with moderate wear. A sound copy. Book
