A key component in any armed force, helicopters operate in a range of roles. Thanks to their ability to go anywhere and operate from locations as diverse as landing pads hacked out of the rainforest or the pitching deck of a frigate, the helicopter adds a flexibility unknown to armed forces in the past. This book describes the evolution of the helicopter in British service, from their beginnings with the Sikorsky R-4B test flown by Fleet Air Arm pilots in the USA to the latest Merlin Crowsnest, Chinook and Apache Guardian. Lavishly illustrated throughout, it includes many previously unpublished photographs.
This book describes the development of the helicopter in British military service, from its beginnings with the Sikorsky R-4B test flown by British Naval Air Force pilots in the USA, through to the latest Merlin 'Crowsnest', 'Chinook' and 'Apache Guardian'.
