FLASHPOINTS: Air Warfare in the Cold War

This work describes eight Cold War conflicts: the Suez Crisis of 1956, the Congo Crisis of 1960 to 1965, the Indo-Pakistan Wars of 1965 and 1971, the Arab-Israel Wars of 1967 and 1973, the Falklands War of 1982 and the Iran-Iraq War of 1980 to 1988. In all of them both sides had a credible air force equipped with modern types, and air power shaped the final outcome. Photos, many in color.
