Here are the classic biplanes and triplanes of World War I, the piston-engined legends of World War II, the early fast jets, supersonic interceptors and stealth fighters.
It was an era when man learned to fight in the air, when speed went from hundreds to thousands of miles per hour, when battles were fought at hundreds of feet and then tens of thousands of feet.
This is a concise, detailed and colour illustrated guide to the most famous and revered fighter aircraft of the last century. It includes aircraft from around the world in chronological order so that the best of every period can be compared.
Specifications include powerplants, dimensions, performance and armament.
