Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird: The Illustrated History of America's Legendary Mach 3 Spy Plane - Book
SPC082
The most complete book ever published on the SR-71 Blackbird, from initial design stage and testing through production, testing, and operations.

SR-71 Blackbird: Lockheed's Ultimate Spy Plane - Book - Paracay
SR-71 Blackbird: Lockheed's Ultimate Spy Plane - Book
SPC079
As of 2023, the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is the fastest manned jet aircraft ever produced. It set the record in 1976 and has been retired since the late 1990s. With its unrivaled speed and stunning appearance, the Blackbird has maintained an almost supernatural mystique to this day. The type entered service in the 1960s as a high-altitude (and obviously extremely high speed) military reconnaissance aircraft. Just 32 were built, nearly half of which were written off in accidents. Nearly 300 images are packed into this latest entry in the Legends of Warfare series. This is a great gift for your favorite modeler, pilot, or aspiring pilot.

Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk: An Illustrated History of the Stealth Fighter - Book - Paracay
Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk: An Illustrated History of the Stealth Fighter - Book
SPC080
The F-117 was probably the most secret aircraft ever developed. The Stealth technology upon which the plane was based made it unique in its appearance. With its stark black appearence and wispy configuration, the plane was a strange departure from the sleek supersonic fighters of the period. This new book covers the technical and operational aspects of the Nighthawk from its initial use over Panama through its shining moment during Operational Desert Storm. Bill Holder and Mike Wallace are also the authors of Mc Donnell-Douglas F-15 Eagle: A Photo Chronicle. Bill Holder is also co-author, with Steve Markman, of One-of-A-Kind Research...
