Originally designed in 1952 as an antisubmarine warfare platform for the US Navy almost twothousand Sikorsky H34s have served on every continent with the armed forces of twentyfive countries from combat in Algeria the Dominican Republic Nicaragua and throughout southeast Asia to saving flood victims recovering astronauts fighting fires and carrying presidents military H34s have met every challenge handed them With continuing postmilitary service the number of countries which the H34 has called home has swelled to nearly fifty Revitalized with turbine engines it has yet to fade from sight Whether lifting construction material or supporting police departments the DC3 of helicopters will still be flying on its fiftieth anniversary The most detailed account of the H34 to appear Lennart Lundhs Sikorsky H34 reflects over a decade of research It takes the reader through the H34 from nose to tail and across its service from Argentina to Vietnam Few of the photographs have been published before and many are drawn from private collections A special feature is the chapter of impressions and anecdotes from fourteen H34 crew members.

Sikorsky, one of the most talented and versatile aeronautical pioneers in history. Sikorsky\'s aviation career spanned over 60 years and was highlighted by three major achievements: the creation of the world\'s first four-engine airliner the record-breaking Clipper Ships, with which Pan American Airways explored transpacific and transatlantic airline service and the development of the helicopter. Sikorsky then led his engineers out of the piston-engine era and into the jet age with the design and development of some of the most widely used turbine-powered helicopters in aviation history. More than 200 photographs, many from the Sikorsky family archives, document the genius of Sikorsky\'s intuitive engineering and his lifelong interest in the challenge of the helicopter, which many historians consider to be his crowning achievement. This book gives an account of the French model tanks used by Germany during WWII. A large number of people in the United States had their first airplane ride in a Ford Tri-Motor during the 1920s and 1930s, a plane that remains to this day a fine example of engineering, planning and production. It was the application of a modified assembly line production by the world\'s largest automobile manufacturer to a continuously refined design, backed by extensive advertising and publicity concerned with safety, at a time when such dependability and safety was crucial, that put Ford ahead of all of its competitors. The all-metal construction, stressed so much by the Ford advertising campaign of the late 1920s, proved its worth in later years. The life span of the average airplane in the 1920s was relatively short and so it is not surprising to find the Ford Company timidly stating in their 1929 advertising that no Ford plane has yet worn out in service. This new book by aviation historian William T. Larkins is the most complete information available on the Ford Tri-Motro, and includes information on design, contruciton, model designations, a cross-indexing of U.S. and foreign registrations, a cross-index to military Ford Tri-Motors, accident summaries, Ford factory employees and Ford Tri-Motor pilot listing. It\'s called the Raptor. The F-22 will be the U.S. Air Force\'s premier fighter for the first decades of the 21st century. Like other expensive military programs, the F-22 endured continuous scrutiny throughout its development - the aircraft that evolved was worth the wait. The F-22 is definitely top gun - it is more agile than current U.S. aircraft, has stealth capability, and is flexible in both air-to-air and air-to-ground attack missions. The Raptor is planned to start operational service with the U.S. Air Force in the year 2004, and when on-line, will provide a capability far beyond that of any other fighter aircraft. This new book presents over seven years of research into the history of the M-1 helmet during World War II, and provides the most comprehensive examination of its development and production. All aspects of M-1 helmet production are covered including: the helmet body, the fiber liner, the plastic liner, the parachutist helmet, helmet camouflage, helmet modifications, helmet paint schemes, and toy helmets. Every production helmet version is presented in full color photographs, including detail shots and production markings. Also included are World War II era photographs of the helmet samples, helmet production, and helmets worn in training or in action. This book a valuable reference to both historians and collectors.

Finally a book that unveils the shroud of mystery surrounding Waffen-SS camouflage clothing. Illustrated here, both in full color and in contemporary black and white photographs, this unparalleled look at Waffen-SS combat troops and their camouflage clothing will benefit both the historian and collector.
