With almost 300 images, "RAF Fast Jets in Colour. The Cold War and Beyond" illustrates the development of one of the world's most technologically advanced air forces. It provides important facts and descriptions of the designs, capabilities and missions of well-known aircraft types such as the Hunter, Harrier, Phantom and Typhoon, highlighting unusual details including variants in camouflage, squadron markings and special anniversary colours. From the Gloster Meteor, which entered service with the RAF in July 1944, to the modern US-built F-35B Lightning, which is now an important part of NATO's air defence, this is an illustrated guide to the most significant combat and reconnaissance aircraft of the RAF since the beginning of the Cold War.
