Historia
The mighty, iconic A-10 Warthog was first thrust into battle in Operation Desert Storm. The men who took it through walls of flak and surface-to-air missiles to help defeat the world's fourth-largest army were as untested as their airplanes, so they relied on personal determination and the amazing A-10 to accomplish their missions, despite the odds.

Amazing First-hand Account of Desert Storm
Revisado: 03-16-25
I can't recommend this book enough. An A-10 Pilot will tell you his story from training to returning from combat. This book will give you some great insight into PTSD and how combat stress affects you mentally and physically. It is one of few books I recommend as a must read.

Historia
For more than three decades, the Grumman F-14 Tomcat was the US Navy’s premier carrier-based, multirole fighter jet. From its harrowing combat missions over Libya to its appearance on the silver screen in movies like Top Gun and Executive Decision, the F-14 has become an icon of American air power. Now, for the first time in a single volume, Tomcat Fury explores the illustrious combat history of the F-14, from the Gulf of Sidra to the Iran-Iraq War to the skies over Afghanistan in the Global War on Terror.

If You Love The Tomcat You'll Love This Book
Revisado: 03-16-25
With most F-14 content out there being stories of carrier ops and training. This book differs in that you'll get great accounts of the Tomcat in combat. You'll hear about the aircraft being put to use doing what it was born to do. Mike is a great author and this book will keep you engaged from start to finish.

Historia
From Israel to Afghanistan. The definitive combat history of the F-15 Eagle and Strike Eagle...as told by the pilots who flew them. For more than 40 years, the McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F-15 Eagle has been the US Air Force’s premier multi-role fighter jet. Made popular by its ubiquity during the Persian Gulf War, the F-15 has become one of the most recognized and revered fighter jets in the world today. Throughout its illustrious combat history, the F-15 has earned more than 100 air-to-air victories...with zero losses.

The Narrator makes this a tough listen.

Comprehensive and Encompassing
Revisado: 02-28-24
it only took me a few trips over a couple days to finish this. I never wanted to pause/stop it. This is exactly my type of book. I love reading about real life events told by those with first-hand knowledge, or close enough to. The F-15(A,B,C,D,E,EX) is my favorite aircraft of all time. Mike is a phenomenal writer and knows how to keep you engaged while also staying true to events as they happened. I have only just started my collection and already can't wait for my next read; Tomcat Fury: A Combat History of the F-14. Luckily I have a couple trips to make tomorrow!
