Opis
As the Cold War drew to an end the B-52's role began to change. While the B-52H remained committed to the nuclear strike role, older B-52Gs were increasingly pressed into service in the conventional role; they dropped about one third of the ordance delivered by the USAF during Operation Desert Storm and were a high profile element in the 'shock and awe' tactics of Operation Iraqi Freedom. This book details the recent combat history of this huge aircraft which has proved one of the most effective weapons available to US force commanders.New threats, new weapons (ALCM) including the search for a Post Cold War role; Prelude to Desert Storm; seven Secret Squirrels; Operation Desert Storm; Aftermath; Operations Desert Strike and Desert Fox; 'Buff' over the Balkans - Operation Allied Force; The War Against Terror; Operation Enduring Freedom; Artwork commentaries; B-52 Unit markings; B-52G/H names and nose art
