HMH PUBLICATIONS 032 Duke Hawkins LTV A-7 Corsair II (English)

Developed to replace the aging A-4 Skyhawk in the US Navy, the Corsair II was a compact fighter capable of carrying a considerable weapons load. This 148-page book presents not only the A-7E, the most widely used version of the Corsair II, but also the A-7A, A-7B, TA-7C, the US Air Force A-7D, the Greek Air Force A-7H, and the Portuguese Air Force A-7P. Both the single- and two-seat cockpits are also presented, along with all the details of the airframe. A comprehensive chapter on maintenance provides a behind-the-scenes look at this high-wing jet.
