Description: F-15C Eagle vs MiG-23/25: Iraq 1991 Features80 pagesIllustrated throughoutDimensions are 7 W by 10 HSoftcoverDildy & Cooper. Designed following the relative poor performance of America's multi-role fighters during the Vietnam War the F-15 Eagle was conceived as a dedicated air superiority fighter. But having trained for fifteen years in the Eagle it wasn't Eastern Bloc-operated MiGs that the F-15 eventually came up against but pilots of Saddam Hussein's Iraqi air force. This book analyzes the combat between the American and Soviet Cold War fighters in a balanced and objective fashion examining how the technical abilities of the aircraft combined with the different levels of training available to opposing pilots and ground crews allowed the F-15s to destroy the Iraqi offensive abilities within weeks of the start of the First Gulf War. Packed with artwork illustrations and photographs this book places the reader in the cockpit during one of the last major dogfighting air wars in modern history.
