Book Synopsis Scattering Characteristics of Aerial and Ground Radar Objects by : Oleg I. Sukharevsky
Download or read book Scattering Characteristics of Aerial and Ground Radar Objects written by Oleg I. Sukharevsky and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-06-24 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents computations for various types of aerial and ground objects. It contains a brief explanation of the theoretical calculation methods used for obtaining scattering characteristics of these objects. It provides working examples for the analysis of electromagnetic wave scattering processes by different objects. Scattering Characteristics of Aerial and Ground Radar Objects is divided in two sections. The first section includes scattering characteristics for different aerial objects: aircrafts, helicopters, transport and passenger airplanes, unmanned aerial vehicles, and missiles. The second section contains data about scattering for many ground objects such as tanks, surface-to-air missile systems, ground radars, and other military objects. In total, the book contains actual data for 63 aerial objects (fighters, attack aircraft, bombers, long-range radar detection aircraft, transport aircraft, helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles, and cruise missiles) and 18 ground objects, among which are anti-aircraft missile systems and tanks. This book contains data obtained by computations such as circular diagrams of radar backscattering; mean and median radar cross section values of various objects; probability distributions of echo signal amplitude given various parameters of illumination and various kinds of underlying surfaces (for ground objects). Also, as an example, the scattering characteristics for one surface ship are given. This book will be a valuable reference for scientists, engineers, and researchers of electromagnetic wave scattering, computational electrodynamics, and those working on radar detection and recognition algorithms for aerial and and ground radar targets.
Download or read book Tornado Boys written by Ian Hall and published by Grub Street Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-05 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The RAF veteran and author of Fast Jets and Other Beasts shares stories from the men and women who have flown the combat aircraft. With the introduction of female pilots to the RAF in 1994, the Tornado was the first aircraft to be flown by both men and women. Another aspect distinguishing this book from the rest of the series is that it covers an aircraft which is still in active service, especially as a key player in current Middle East operations. With focus on the GR1/GR4 versions of the Tornado, readers will get to see what it is like to operate this bomber/reconnaissance aircraft against the backdrop of modern-day scenarios. The book begins in the 1970s with stories from operators and ground crew using the Tornado as a Cold War nuclear deterrent, and continues with tales of later “hot” wars as in both Gulf conflicts and in Kosovo. There are also stories of Scud hunting in Iraq and Red Flag exercises in the United States, as well as of a stunning competition victory over the USAF’s Strategic Air Command in their own backyard. The short-lived anti-shipping role is not neglected. With the transformation of the Tornado to the GR4 standard, the book continues with chapters covering active service supporting Britain’s increasingly complex international commitments and the employment of new weaponry and sensors. All in all, through the eyes of men and women who have operated this extraordinary aircraft, the volume presents an entertaining and illuminating series of tales and anecdotes. These light and informative stories come from those who were proud to serve on and loved to operate the impressively versatile Tornado.

Book Synopsis The RAF in Cold War Germany by : Ian Smith Watson
Download or read book The RAF in Cold War Germany written by Ian Smith Watson and published by Fonthill Media. This book was released on 2022-08-22 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May 1945 with the war in Europe at an end, Britain had to play her part in the occupation of the defeated Germany. The near-bankrupt country was hard-pressed to maintain such a military presence on the continent and still manage our other out commitments across the Mediterranean, Middle and Far East. As the immediate post-war years came to pass, Britain and other western powers found themselves reviewing their relationship with the key victor in the east: the USSR. A defining moment came in 1948 when the Soviet Union attempted to starve the people of West Berlin to the point of being relinquished to their fate by the Western allies. Following a sterling and stubborn effort to keep the city supplied with the minimum materials and food the Soviet exercise ended in 1949. But the parameters were now set, the Iron Curtain had descended across the continent, and the RAF were to maintain a constant vigil with nuclear-armed aircraft on station ready to respond to Soviet aggression for the next four decades while politicians tried desperately to preserve the peace.

Book Synopsis G-Force: Flying the World's Greatest Aircraft by : James Bennet
Download or read book G-Force: Flying the World's Greatest Aircraft written by James Bennet and published by Chartwell Books. This book was released on 2016-10 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Read what military pilots have to say about flying some of the most incredible fighting aircraft ever built. "It's like a $20 million strap on carnival ride," - AH-64 Apache Pilot "I had high expectations, and it's beat eery one of those. The whole jet is awesome." - F/A-18F Super Hornet pilot. The role of the pilot has changed hugely in the last sixty years of military aviation. Jet pilots in the 1960s, flying types such as the Harrier and F-102, would have spent a huge portion of their concentration just keeping the aircraft under control. That left little spare mental capacity to locate and engage the enemy. Today, the opposite is true. Computers have made flying so simple that it is now considered very easy to fly the SAAB Gripen or Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II, allowing the pilot to focus fully on his or her mission. G-Force Flying the World's Greatest Aircraft is a celebration of the experience of flying some of aviation's most spectacular, powerful, and dangerous machines, from early jet fighters such as the F-86 Sabre and MiG-15 to today's F-22 Raptor and Eurofighter Typhoon. Packed with first-hand interviews with test and combat pilots from the world's air forces, and illustrated with extensively researched and striking imagery, G-Force Flying the World's Greatest Aircraft is thrilling ride alongside the pilots who fly the aircraft every day. Featuring first-hand accounts of combat over Korea in the MiG-15, endurance missions in the B-2, and bombing Iraqi targets in the Tornado, this book puts the reader directly in the pilot's seat, and will appeal to aviation enthusiasts of all ages.

Book Synopsis British Aircraft Corporation by : Stephen Skinner
Download or read book British Aircraft Corporation written by Stephen Skinner and published by Crowood. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The British Aircraft Corporation was formed from The Bristol Aeroplane Company, English Electric, Vickers-Armstrong and Hunting in 1960. In its short, seventeen-year, life, the British Aircraft Corporation built some of the most important aircraft and missiles of the 1960s, 1970s and beyond: its best-known products included the Jaguar and Tornado warplanes, Rapier missile and One-Eleven airliner. It was also responsible for the stillborn TSR2 strike aircraft, the 1965 cancellation of which remains controversial to this day. Most famously, the Anglo-French Concorde supersonic airliner came from the BAC stable. BAC was subsumed into British Aerospace (now BAE Systems) in 1977, but many of its products remain in service to this day. This book tells their complete story.
Download or read book On Edge written by Bill Brand and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2021-08-06 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On Edge By: Bill Brand Although fiction, On Edge references many actual occurrences and accurately portrays the current geopolitical and economic situation in Europe and explores the dilemma of how to react to Russia’s expansion policy as well as the one of the USA and NATO. An ever-increasing number of NATO member states encroach on Russia’s border. Russia faces US missile defense systems in Poland as well as the Czech Republic. And the West supplies military hardware to Albania, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, and Hungary, all countries that had been once controlled by the former Soviet Union. When Russia annexed the Crimea, there was little the West could do about it, except to impose sanctions on Russia. On Edge explores the possibility of a military takeover of the Baltic States by Russia. How would the US and NATO forces react to such a move by Russia? Could the West fight a conventional war against Russia given that the US has withdrawn most of his combat units from Europe and the combat readiness of German forces is questionable? Would a nuclear confrontation be risked protecting the Baltic States? On Edge explores the possibility of solving NATO’s dilemma through secret negotiations led by the Intelligence Services of both the USA and Russia. In the end, diplomacy must prevail, even if the most drastic measures must be taken.
