Book excerpt: Lt. Dan "Gator" Fancy is a crack Naval aviator, evidenced by the fact that he shot down five Iraqi planes on his last deployment on the carrier Enterprise. His resolve and skills are tested when he must transition from the F-14 to the F/A-18C Hornet and then to the F/A-18E Super Hornet. He must balance his passion for flying and the demands of his new assignment with his new responsibilities as husband and father. The ugly spectre of terrorism looms large as the Nimitz plys the world's seas from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean, seeking to project American sea power in an unstable world. Fancy finds himself on the cutting edge of today's headlines along with all of the men and women of the Nimitz and the ships of her battle group.

Download or read book EA-6B Prowler Model written by Glenn Hoover and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains detailed instructions on building the Grumman EA-6B Prowler 1/48 scale model aircraft from Kinetic (Kit K48044). These instructions can also be used for kit K48022. In addition to the kit's instructions, there are several aftermarket kits. AM 48114 Wolfpack Radar & Avionics Resin kit, AM 48672 eduard Exterior photo etch, AM 48680 eduard Wing Fold photo etch, AM 48681 eduard Undercarriage photo etch, AM 48684 eduard Electronics Equipment Cage photo etch, AM 49519 eduard Interior photo etch, AM 49520 eduard Seatbelts photo etch. Can you imagine merging all of these instructions? Well, I've done that for you and more. I take the model kit instructions from Kinetic along with the eduard and Wolfpack AM sets and break them up into individual steps. The aftermarket steps are colored gray making them easy to skip if you just have the basic model. This book provides a little history of the EA-6B Prowler, a detailed list of tools that I used to build this model, along with a list of paints. The actual instruction section contains 1,178 steps and 163 plus figures over 226 pages that tell you what to dry fit, glue, and/or paint for each individual piece. Each step instruction shows the source (i.e., either Kinetic or AM) along with a block to mark that you completed the step. I provide an index of the individual sprue parts that show where in the book the part is mentioned. This index was a great way to make sure that no pieces were overlooked. Finally, there are several pages of in-process photos with assembly tips and the final photos of my build for reference. This book is a great checklist to make your build go smoothly. Of course, you can feel free to use different tools, paint, weathering, etc. or even add your own diorama. I hope you find this book useful.

Book excerpt: "Fast-paced, exciting and informative, with a realism and authenticity that this old carrier aviator has not seen in a long, long time." Admiral J. L. Holloway III, USN (Ret.), Chief of Naval Operations, 1974-78 A fine Tom Clancy-style account...From the start, the reader is in the cockpit. Kirkus Reviews The book that straps you into the cockpit of one of the world's most exhilarating and dangerous occupations. Slammed back into his ejection seat, catapulting from the heaving aircraft-carrier at 150 miles per hour in two seconds, he plunges into the darkness above the black waves. He is a rookie pilot on his first flight off the deck of the famed USS Midway, a "nugget" strapped in the electronics-crammed cockpit of one of the world's most expensive, sophisticated - and powerful - military machines. He is a member of the elite EA-6B Prowler squadron - call sign Ironclaw. And for Sherman Baldwin, a Yale grad turned navy carrier pilot on the eve of the Gulf War, the adventure has just begun. Here is the real world of military aviation - a world far more exciting than the depiction in bestselling novels and popular Hollywood films. Baldwin records in white-knuckled prose what it's really like to make the grade as a navy carrier pilot: the high-stakes, high-pressure world of piloting multimillion-dollar aircraft, precision flying through enemy fire over hostile territory, and zero-tolerance aircraft landings in the dead of night, when one miscalculation could result in a fatal crash. He also offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the humor and camaraderie that bind these special individuals together, characters with nicknames like "Beast," "Chief Rat," and "Simba." From the mission-planning room to chaotic action of the carrier deck to emergency midair refuelings and the outbreak of the Gulf War, Baldwin captures the G forces of the world's steepest and most dangerous learning curve.

Download or read book On Yankee Station written by John B. Nichols and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2013-03-11 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining vivid personal narrative with historical and operational analyses, this book takes a candid look at U.S. naval airpower in the Vietnam War. Coauthors John Nichols, a fighter pilot in the war, and Barrett Tillman, an award-winning aviation historian, make full use of their extensive knowledge of the subject to detail the ways in which airpower was employed in the years prior to the fall of Saigon. Confronting the conventional belief that airpower failed in Vietnam, they show that when applied correctly, airpower was effective, but because it was often misunderstood and misapplied, the end results were catastrophic. Their book offers a compelling view of what it was like to fly from Yankee Station between 1964 and 1973 and important lessons for future conflicts. At the same time, it adds important facts to the permanent war record. Following an analysis of the state of carrier aviation in 1964 and a definition of the rules of engagement, it describes the tactics used in strike warfare, the airborne and surface threats, electronic countermeasures, and search and rescue. It also examines the influence of political decisions on the conduct of the war and the changing nature of the Communist opposition. Appendixes provide useful statistical data on carrier deployments, combat sorties, and aircraft losses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Naval Air Station (NAS) Whidbey Island in Washington State has a long and storied history that began in 1942 and continues to the present day. Tucked away on an island that is its namesake, NAS Whidbey was originally conceptualized as a small support base for an existing air station in nearby Seattle. That prewar plan was rapidly eclipsed by world events, and the proposed support base quickly evolved into an air station of its own right. Through historic photographs chosen from the archives of the US Navy, the PBY-Naval Air Museum, and the personnel of NAS Whidbey Island, both past and present, the story of the air station is told. These images will serve not only as a trip down memory lane for those stationed at Whidbey in days gone by, but will also illustrate to younger generations their connection to those who served in the not so distant past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of how the Super Hornet and Growler came into existence is the focus of this new book. The F/A-18E/F has its roots in the late-1980s Hornet 2000 study, which itself evaluated ways to enhance the range, payload, and bring-back capability of the existing F/A-18 Hornet. Through a series of trade-offs imposed by largely limited defense funds, what emerged was a versatile, affordable strike fighter aircraft that has served the Navy well since its fleet introduction in 2002. The Growler has a similar history. Itself an offshoot of the Super Hornet program, the EA-18G brought many of the Super Hornet's attributes - speed, maneuverability, self-defense capability, and advanced systems - into the electronic attack community and is now posed to assume all such missions from the venerable EA-6B Prowler within the next few years. The book draws on interviews with many of the key players in the F/A-18E/F and EA-18G program and on many press reports of the day to tell the story of how these aircraft were designed, developed, and deployed. Moreover, the book provides insights into the problems faced by these key individuals as well as the management methods they used to produce aircraft that have consistently been delivered at or ahead of schedule, under cost, and under weight.

Download or read book Jewish Jammer written by A. Book A Book by Me and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steven Bradley Blinn was born in Philadelphia in the early 1960s. He was a very outgoing boy and enjoyed reading and sports. He attended Hebrew school two times a week. Steve's school had students from different cultural groups and his neighborhood was predominately Jewish. From an early age, Steve remembers his Bubba (grandma) and Zada (grandpa) telling stories of the old days. Anti-Semitism loomed large in Europe. His ancestors had to leave Europe to escape the Russian Pogroms and the Nazis. They fled to find freedom and avoid persecution because they were Jewish. They journeyed to America to be free. At this young age, Steve couldn't understand why people would harm and kill each other simply because of their culture or religious beliefs. Steve was a typical American teenager. He enjoyed sports and getting together with friends. Summer jobs included gas station attendant, valet, hospital janitor and soda jerk. In high school, Steve excelled at football and baseball, playing for the varsity team. During his junior year, he became interested in the military. His friend's brother served in the Navy and invited Steve to tour his base. This inspired Steve to serve his country and help make the world a safer place for people of all cultures and religions. After four years at Virginia Military Institute, Steve graduated #1 in his ROTC class with a B.S. in Biology. The graduation ceremony took place in May 1986 and included Steve taking his oath to serve as a Naval Aviation Officer. He was elated and ready to assume his duties. He attended flight school in Pensacola, Florida and received his wings in August 1987. Lieutenant Blinn joined his sea-going squadron VAQ-137 and deployed on his first cruise on the aircraft carrier U.S.S. America. The cruise lasted eight months in the Mediterranean Sea. In November 1990, Lieutenant Blinn deployed on his second cruise to the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf to participate in the Iraqi Conflict called Operation Desert Storm. The purpose of this mission was to stop Saddam Hussein and the Iraqis from occupying and killing the people of Kuwait. They were very greedy and wanted to take over the oil fields that belonged to the Kuwaiti people. Kuwait didn't have a strong military and couldn't defend themselves, so the United States stepped in for their liberation. Lieutenant Blinn flew 25 combat missions totaling 104 combat hours over Iraq. He flew an EA-6B Prowler aircraft jet which jammed enemy radar and carried missiles which were used to destroy enemy radar. Operation Desert Storm ended on February 28, 1991. When Lieutenant Blinn came home to Cherry Hill, New Jersey, a big party was held in his honor. At the party, the mayor, Susan Bass Levin, presented him with a plaque to acknowledge his service to our country in Operation Desert Storm. Lt. Steve Blinn finished his service to the United States Navy on February 28, 1995. Today, he lives in the Midwest with his wife and children. He works in the logistics industry for one of the top U.S. rail transportation companies. He actively participates in community service work for veterans and supports his youngest daughter in her patriotic endeavors as a State Officer with the National Society Children of the American Revolution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Central Intelligence Agency is under attack, and so is its top field operative, Kyle Swanson. The highly decorated former Marine Corps gunnery sergeant is attending the funeral of a friend when a terrorist blows up the grave. A week later, he narrowly survives a grenade attack in Berlin. In Washington, Congress is being told that Swanson has been turned, his private employer is corrupt, and the Agency itself cannot be trusted. Swanson is assigned to find the root of the problem and is partnered up with Luke Gibson, a skilled operative rated as being almost as good as Swanson. They are looking for assassin Nicky Marks, who also was a CIA shooter but now works for a shadowy power broker known as The Prince. But before Kyle and Luke can eliminate the threat, they must identify and find the man who wants them dead. That takes them from the pink poppy fields of Afghanistan to the jungles of Southeast Asia and the streets of America as they learn that the Prince is the ruthless kingpin of a global drug empire that uses CIA planes to transport opium and heroin. Swanson also lines up a secret partner, the beautiful widow of his friend whose grave was desecrated in Mexico, the sharpshooting former commando Beth Ledford, who has her own agenda of pure retribution. Kyle Swanson, at the worst possible moment in a combat showdown, must decide: Do you trust your partner, and if so, which one?
