‎The CAC Boomerang : Australia's Own WWII Fighter‎

‎Kent Town SA: Avonmore Books. 2024. Large octavo size 16x24cm approx. MINT - a NEW copy. Illustrated with Colour and Black & White Photographs. Colour illustrations by Michael Claringbould. 104 pages. The CAC Boomerang has a unique place in Australian aviation history being the nation's only home designed and produced fighter. The design was born in dark days at the start of the Pacific War when the RAAF possessed not a single modern fighter and the southwards onslaught of Japanese forces seemed unstoppable. Lacking the performance of contemporaries such as America's P-39 and P-40 and Japan's Zero the Boomerang's subsequent history is chequered. It served with three RAAF home defence squadrons in the fighter interceptor role but had only fleeting unsuccessful contact with enemy aircraft. However the Boomerang found its true niche as an army cooperation aircraft and the type gave very useful service with Nos. 4 and 5 Squadrons in New Guinea and Bougainville. With hindsight the Boomerang provided an insurance policy if other fighters could not be obtained from the US and Britain. In that role it was successful and its production maintained a skilled wartime workforce at the CAC factory. . New. 1st Edition. Softcover. Avonmore Books paperback‎

From Daedalus to Desert Storm BaIloons to Baghdad and beyond --- a history of Army Aviation the how what when where and why. This is the rest of the story never told and certainly not always understood. WiIliams' research and academic diligence bring fascinating history to life. He teIls how this 21st Century formidable fighting force came to be in spite of technological challenges roles and missions personalities and pundits. He traces aviation successes over many decades through the American spirit and the leadership and ingenuity of our fighting soldiers. Paramount are his treatments of combat evolutions and weapons capabilities how Army Aviation was born into the warrior brotherhood on the battlefields of Europe Korea Vietnam Iraq and countless other nameless places.
