“One of the finest Falklands accounts, written by a man who was in the heart of the action. Phil Neame brings alive both the grit of the men at the sharp end, and the decision making of their commanders.”
Dan Snow, Popular Historian and Television Presenter

[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars The story of how the 250th Air Defense Brigade of the Yugoslav Army in 1999 shot down an F-117 Night Hawk. In 1999 the N.A.T.O. air campaign against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was having the expected effect, overwhelming technical superiority was well overwhelming the Yugoslavian military and destroying targets at will. The F-117 was the world first "Stealth" aircraft purported to be invisible to radar. It would come as quite a shock to Lt.Col. Dale Zelco flying the F-117 in question when Battery 3 of the 250th Air Defense Brigade fired the obsolescent Surface to Air Missiles and he would end up hitting the silk as pilots used to say. Well worth reading and thinking about in todays threat environment.

I learnt a lot in reading the book about the early development and deployment of drones, and a large number of archive images will interest many, and encourage modellers I suspect. The DC-130 launch aircraft are illustrated, along with the helicopters that recovered the drones on their return, lowered on a parachute. A really interesting addition to the stories of the Vietnam War and work with drones that has gone largely unnoticed. A fascinating read.

"Overall, it is an interesting book."

This is the first of a number of planned titles covering US equipment in Vietnam, and has instantly gained a place in my list of favourite references on the topic of equipment in the Vietnam War. It adds to a list of over 100 books written by David Doyle on armour topics, and mentions that he himself owns 10 Vietnam era vehicles. Definitely one I'd recommend.
