This densely-illustrated mini monograph contains three dozen rare archive images-including airframe close-up details-along with detailed 1:72 and 1:48 scale drawings and rear cover colour profiles to illustrate the typical Fokker streaky finish.

Победа в Великой Отечественной войне определялась не только мужеством солдат и командиров на поле боя, не только талантом военачальников, но и напряженной работой конструкторов боевой техники.
Новая книга серии рассказывает о деятельности ведущих советских авиаконструкторов накануне и в годы Великой Отечественной войны, о создании основных типов боевых самолетов РККА, их развитии и модификациях, как массовых, так и выпущенных небольшими сериями. Особое внимание уделено созданным в рассматриваемый период проектам, по различным причинам не принятым на вооружение, не прошедшим испытания или оставшимся на стадии эскизного проектирования.

Drones are the iconic military technology of many of today's most pressing conflicts. Drones have captured the public imagination, partly because they project lethal force in a manner that challenges accepted norms and moral understandings. Drone Wars presents a series of essays by legal scholars, journalists, government officials, military analysts, social scientists, and foreign policy experts. It addresses drones' impact on the ground, how their use adheres to and challenges the laws of war, their relationship to complex policy challenges, and the ways they help us understand the future of war. The book is a diverse and comprehensive interdisciplinary perspective on drones that covers important debates on targeted killing and civilian casualties, presents key data on drone deployment, and offers new ideas on their historical development, significance, and impact on law and policy.

After an early childhood in Pretoria, Nick reported for National Service duty with the SADF. This saw him deploying to the Border as an infantry soldier with a brief interlude to Pretoria for pilot assessment. Much to his surprise, Nick was called forward for pilot training and this saw him learning his craft on the Harvard and Impala. He soon graduated to rotary with the Alouette and shortly thereafter, in 1977, Nick became a Puma pilot. At the height of the South African Border War, Nick flew Puma helicopters across the 'Operational Area' conducting troop moves, casevacs, fighting patrols with special forces and more. In the Drakensburg mountain range Nick conducted daring cliff rescues, whilst at sea, he was instrumental in a number of difficult rescues. Nick now lives in Durban, South Africa, with business interests in Johannesburg. He continues to love anything to do with aviation.
