Attack Helicopters A History of Rotary-Wing Combat Aircraft
Baltimore MD: The Nautical and Aviation Publishing Company of America. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 1987. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. B&W Illustrations; This book is in Very Good condition and has a Near Fine dust jacket. The book and its contents are in mostly clean bright condition. The spine ends and corners of the book covers have some light bumping and beginning rubbing. The text pages are clean and bright. The dust jacket is clean and bright but does have some light fading to the spine and spine joints. "An attack helicopter is an armed helicopter with the primary role of an attack aircraft with the capability of engaging targets on the ground such as enemy infantry and armored fighting vehicles. Due to their heavy armament they are sometimes called helicopter gunships. Weapons used on attack helicopters can include autocannons machine guns rockets and guided anti-tank missiles such as the Hellfire. Many attack helicopters are also capable of carrying air-to-air missiles though mostly for purposes of self-defense. Today's attack helicopter has two main roles: first to provide direct and accurate close air support for ground troops and the second in the anti-tank role to destroy enemy armor concentrations." .
