TAKE A FASCINATING TOUR OF A COMBAT AIRCRAFT WITH THE NO.1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR.

Now, for the first time an insider's look at a US Air Force combat wing – the planes, the technology and the people – with Tom Clancy as your guide.

Tom Clancy's previous explorations of America's armed forces, 'Submarine and Armoured Warfare', revealed exclusive, never-before-seen information on the people and technology that protect the USA.

With his compelling style and unerring eye for detail, Clancy captures the thrill of take-off, the drama of the dog-fight… and the relentless dangers fighter pilots face every day of their lives.

'FIGHTER WING' includes:
• Detailed analyses of the US Air Force's premier fighter planes, including the F-15 Eagle
• Exclusive photographs, illustrations and diagrams
• An insider's look at the people behind the planes and weapons
• Combat strategies and training techniques used by the US Air Force
