Since the earliest days of military aviation during WW1, aerial bombardment has been a hard-hitting, war-winning and sometimes controversial strategy. From early biplane bombers such as the Vickers Vimy, through World War II legends like the Boeing B-17 Flying fortress to modern day machines including the Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit stealth bomber, 101 Great Bombers coveres the history of military bomber types. The dropping of two atomic bombs from two American B-29s on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945 turned the bomber into one of the world's most effective and feared weapons.
Containing development history, full specifications giving details of the aircraft's dimensions, weight, range, speed, payload, crew and country of origin and a photograph and profile artwork, the entries in 101 Great Bombers showcase the cream of military aviation hardware.
