F-111 Illustrated - Vietnam & Gulf War History Book

By Lou Drendel

The F-111 was the only American fighter to spend its entire career without an official name. The crews came up with the name "Aardvark" because of its long nose, and that became the official name upon its retirement. It was ahead of its time, both politically and technologically. As a technological pathfinder, it suffered many fits and starts before proving itself in combat. This latest title in the "Illustrated" series contains many previously unpublished color photos and some new artwork. It also contains combat narrative from Vietnam and the Persian Gulf wars.
