Revolution in the Sky : The Lockheed's of Aviation's Golden Age
The Lockheed Martin Skunk Works was founded in the summer of 1943 to develop a jet-powered high-altitude interceptor for the USAAF, and ever since it has been at the forefront of technological development in the world of aviation. From the XP-80 to the U-2, SR-71, F-117, F-22 and now the F-35, the Skunk Works team has designed aircraft that are the pinnacle of innovation and performance.
"75 years of the Lockheed Martin Skunk Works" takes us through the history of this legendary facility from its foundation at the height of World War II under the talented engineer, Clarence "Kelly" Johnson, through to the present day. Illustrated with over a thousand photographs and drawings, it details the 46 unclassified programmes developed by the Skunk Works, following them through prototype build-up, first flight and, if they reached the frontline, operational service.
F-22 Raptor - Lockheed Martin Stealth Fighter (Legends of Warfare)
NUEVO
El Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor entró en servicio en 2005 y su producción finalizó en 2011. A pesar de los nuevos diseños de cazas, sigue siendo uno de los aviones más avanzados en funcionamiento en la actualidad. Debido a su tecnología furtiva, el programa F-22 sigue siendo muy secreto. Se construyeron menos de 200 y algunos de sus sistemas aún están clasificados. La exportación de la aeronave está estrictamente prohibida. El F-22 ha combatido en Siria, Irak y Afganistán y, en particular, derribó un supuesto globo espía chino frente a las costas de Estados Unidos en febrero de 2023.
Este libro presenta una breve historia gráfica del F-22, que abarca su diseño, desarrollo, historial de servicio y papel en los espectáculos aéreos con el equipo de demostración del Raptor. Incluye muchas fotografías inéditas de la colección personal del autor.

Vega Ventura : The Operational Story of Lockheed's Lucky Star
This informative and long overdue account provides an extraordinary amount of insight into the Neptune's lengthy history, beginning with its inception during World War II to the present day survivors.
Lockheed's 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 Neptune's role as the U.S. Navy's 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.
