Modern Chinese Military Aircraft, Hardback Book

Modern Chinese Military Aircraft Hardback

Part of the Technical Guides series

Hardback

Description

Illustrated with accurate artworks of military aircraft and their markings, Chinese Military Aircraft is a detailed guide to all the aircraft types currently in service with the People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF).

Arranged by type, the book covers everything from the venerable Cold War era Chengdu J-7, a third-generation fighter still used as a trainer, to the J-10 ‘Vigorous Dragon’ multirole fighters that patrol the Taiwan Straits today.

The guide is illustrated with accurate profile artworks of some of the best – and least – known aircraft, such as the Xi’an JH-7 anti-shipping fighter-bomber; the anti-tank missile-armed Harbin Z-9 helicopter; the Shenyang J-16 fourth-generation multirole strike fighter; the High-Altitude Long Endurance (HALE) drone; the KJ-2000 early warning surveillance aircraft; and the latest Chengdu J-20 twinjet all-weather stealth fighter, a key component of China’s recent military modernisation.

Illustrated with more than 100 detailed artworks, Chinese Military Aircraft is an essential reference guide for modellers and enthusiasts of military aviation.
