F-111 Aardvark: General Dynamics' Variable-Swept-Wing Attack Aircraft - Couverture rigide
Livre 44 sur 71: Legends of Warfare: Aviation
Synopsis
The General Dynamics F-111 was one of aviation history's most promising aircraft when it emerged in the early 1960s.
Despite a rocky service career, shifting political approaches to military procurement, and the challenges of integrating cutting-edge technology, the aircraft provided a credible frontline deterrent during the Cold War and was used effectively in both the Vietnam War and Operation Desert Storm.
Many of the challenges encountered in bringing the F-111—with its advanced systems—into service are now considered standard in modern fighter aircraft development.
Although the US Navy did not adopt the F-111B variant, its radar and missile system testing significantly contributed to the development of the Grumman F-14 Tomcat.
The F-111 was a powerful aircraft capable of carrying devastating weaponry, but it was phased out by the US Air Force in the mid-1990s, largely due to high maintenance costs.
The aircraft remained in Australian service until 2010.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. The General Dynamics F-111 was one of aviation history's most promising planes when it came out in the early 1960s. Despite a rocky service career, political changes in how the military acquired its weaponry, and the addition of too much new technology, the plane provided a credible frontline deterrent to NATO in the Cold War era and was used to great effect in the Vietnam War and Operation Desert Storm. Many of the challenges faced by putting the F-111 - with all of its new systems - into service are now accepted as a normal outfit in modern fighter aircraft. The F-111 had a lot of bad publicity, but in the end the F-111 did its job extremely well. Although the Navy did not accept the F-111B model, the Grumman F-14 Tomcat became a success, resulting in large part from the F-111B experience and tests it did accomplish with the radar and missile systems. AUTHOR: John Gourley is a military veteran with a career as a crash/rescue fire protection specialist with the United States Air Force, and as a civilian working for the US government. His lifelong hobby has been photographing military hardware. SELLING POINTS: . All-new account of the F-111, including all subtypes, systems, and combat history .
