It saw the first large-scale jet-versus-jet combat and it was the first military action of the Cold War, fought by both the newly independent United States Air Force and the recently formed Chinese People's Liberation Army Air Force. <p/>In a meticulously researched volume, former RAF Tornado pilot Michael Napier unravels the complex narrative of events, describing the course of operations in the air and the major campaigns of the land war. He examines in detail the air power of the major combatants, which included North and South Korea, the UK, Australia, Canada and South Africa as well as China, the USA and the USSR. <p/>Packed with stunning contemporary images and including first-hand combat reports, <i>Korean Air War</i> is a groundbreaking exploration of a much forgotten conflict, which nevertheless provided lessons about the organization and prosecution of modern aerial warfare that remain relevant through to the present day.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>It's a fabulous book, both for students of the Korean War and for those with an interest in aviation combat. - <i>Duncan Evans, The Armourer</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Michael Napier</b> is an experienced author with six published titles to his name, including <i>The Royal Air Force - a Centenary of Operations</i> published by Osprey; two more books <i>In Cold War Skies</i> and <i>The Vickers Wellington Squadrons of Bomber Command</i> are also shortly to be published by Osprey.
