SUPERMARINE ATTACKER SWIFT AND SCIMITAR. POSTWAR MILITARY AIRCRAFT: 7.
Ian Allan Shepperton Surrey 1992 first edition. 112 pp large 8vo 9 1/2" H hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 0711020345 Profusely illustrated with b&w photographs drawings/diagrams. "The name Supermarine is universally associated with the Spitfire an aircraft which helped to defeat the Luft waffe during the Battle of Britain; the company's fundamental role in the development of Britain's military jet aircraft is less well known. Although now overshadowed by the success of the Hawker Hunter and of the BAC Lightning the Supermari n e A t t acker Swift and Scimitar were among the most influential of Britain's post-war military aircraft. The Attacker first flown in 1946 was the first jet fighter to be standardised on for squadron service with the Fleet Air Arm. The Attac ke r w as f ol lowed by the Swift. The first of this type of jet interceptor flew in 1951 and was introduced to squadron service in February 1954; it thus gained the distinction of being the first swept-wing jet fighter to enter service with the R oya l Ai r F orc e beating the Hawker Hunter by several months. The teething problems apparent with the Swift however ensured that it was the Hunter that was to go on to great success. Further success was to come to the Supermarine company with the S cim itar . A gai n destined for the Fleet Air Arm the Scimitar holds the distinction of being the first swept-wing single-seat jet fighter in service with the FAA as well as being the first FAA aircraft to be equipped to carry atomic weapo ns. Th e au thor narr ates the often dramatic history of these influential but now unfairly ignored aircraft. Forty years after the event the book will enable the aviation historian to appreciate better the importance of Supermarine's role in the dev elopm ent of Brita in's military jet aircraft." Dust jacket has been price-clipped has light wrinkling at top/bottom of spine and flap-folds. Fine/Very Good. Ian Allan, Shepperton, Surrey, 1992, first edition. hardcover
