Lockheed P-2V Neptune: An Illustrated History (Hardcover)

This informative and long overdue account provides an extraordinary
amount of insight into the Neptunes lengthy history, beginning with
its inception during World War II to the present day survivors.
Lockheeds Neptune was the first aircraft designed exclusively as an
anti-submarine patrol bomber and was progressively developed
throughout its operational career. Versatility became a byword as
the Neptunes role as the U.S. Navys premier sub-hunter greatly
expanded. A veteran of the Korean and Vietnam wars, the venerable
Neptune proved highly adaptable to nearly any mission. More than
1,000 examples were built, many of which thrive today as fire
bombers and warbirds. Presented here for the first time are the
many fascinating details describing Neptune service with non-U.S.
air arms, and obscure operations to include gunships, U.S. Army
variants, and CIA operations. Clearly evident is the in-depth
research that makes this extensive volume accurate, detailed and
redable. Complete with serial and bureau numbers lists that
correspond to its many assignments, plus many rare photographs,
this comprehensive history does justice to the legendary Neptune.
Wayne Mutza is also the author of Grumman Albatross: A History of
the Legendary Seaplane(available from Schiffer Publishing Ltd.).
