Item Description: I am selling the book ENCYCLOPEDIA OF US AIR FORCE AIRCRAFT AND MISSILE SYSTEMS, VOLUME I: POST-WORLD WAR II FIGHTERS 1945-1973 by Marcelle Size Knaack, published in 1978. The book measures approximately 6" x 9-1/2" and is 358 pages long. The hardbound book (no dust jacket) is in very good condition. This volume was published by the Office of Air Force History. Black-and-white photos and drawings illustrate the text. <P>This volume contains basic information on all Air Force fighters developed between World War II and 1973, including all configurations. It is based primarily on US Air Force sources. The origin of each aircraft is noted as well as its most troublesome development, production, and operational problems. Also covered are significant modifications, most of which can be attributed to ever-changing aeronautical technology. Production totals, delivery rates, unit costs, phaseout dates, and other important milestones are provided, as well as a brief description of each version's new features. <P>The book begins with the first post-war American jet fighter -- the F-80 Shooting Star. It ends with Northrop's F-5 Freedom Fighter. Complete consistency of data on each fighter was not always available, but each section describes the aircraft's basic development, production decision dates, program changes, test results, procurement methods, and the like. Technical data and operational characteristics also are provided. <P>If shipping within the USA, buyer will pay $3.75 for media mail s/h. Payment can be made by money order or through PayPal. <P>I sell used books. The items come from many different sources and may have been exposed to pet, smoke or other odors in a previous home.
