Jet Wars in the Nuclear Age: 1972 to the Present Day by Martin Bowman

This book covers, across eight individual chapters, the part played by the earliest V-bombers - the Vulcan, Victor and Valiant - and fighter bombers in the Nuclear Age. It consolidates a range of first-hand accounts and snippets from pilot testimony, combined with the author's well-researched historical narrative, to create a rounded sense of events as they played out during this dynamic period of aviation history. It explores the era of the 1980s right up to the present-day, illustrating how things have developed and evolved over recent years in this sphere.
