U.S. air power

Description

The 4 US services deploy more than 5,000 front-line aircraft and 3,000 helicopters. Their units serve in more than 20 allied countries. This DVD tells the full story of this amazing war machine. Superb color film - much of it specially de-classified for this program - looks at all the major aircraft, helicopters, transports, and weaponry. Throughout, the emphasis is on action, with much of the footage taken during training exercises and combat simulations. The program encapsulates the organization of America's aerial fighting might and has a detailed script by leading aviation authority Bill Gunston.
