The most comprehensive,thorough and detailed single-volume survey of the modern RAF available to aviation enthusiasts,and even to service personnel,this 2nd edition of Gander's excellent work considers all the many changes and developments,both in the air and on the ground,that have taken place since the 1st edition was published in July 1984.In that time new aircraft such as the Tornado F3 (see rja2043) and Harrier GR5 have begun to enter service while other,older,types such as the Vulcan have finally disappeared from the skies.Which Royal Air Force squadrons are now equipped with which aircraft,and what are their capabilities? Where are they deployed and what is their role? The answers to these and hundreds of other questions may be found in the pages of this new highly illustrated edition.Beginning with a brief survey of principal events within and affecting the Royal Air Force since 1945, this book not only describes - with maps and diagrams - the organization and status of Strike and Support Commands and RAF Germany but also provides detailed data on the RAF's material inventory.There is a section on the RAF Regiment and the Royal Observer Corps,on Air Crew Training and on the organization of a typical modern military airfield.Full details of the WRAF,the Nursing Service and Air Cadets are also given but for many enthusiasts the main attraction will be the up-to-the-minute chapters on RAF hardware (then 1987),ranging from aircraft specifications and performance data to details of armament (including missiles and other ordnance),ground vehicles,uniforms,protective clothing and insignia.Each descriptive entry is accompanied by a meticulously researched text explaining significant features,scale plans (mostly redrawn for this new edition) and many new photographs.This book with its companion volumes on the Army and Royal Navy (each now in their 3rd editions - but see also rja2041) represents an indispensable guide to Britain's modern military services.
