This meticulously researched and newly updated book charts the complete history of naval aviation, from pioneering days when the first biplanes were catapulted from converted destroyers through to the high-performance jets patrolling the world's seas today. The first part of the book focuses on significant technological advances, including carrier evolution, 21st-century aircraft technology and weaponry, as well as military operations in which naval aviation have played a significant part.
