Amazon.com Description:
Grumman has produced many fine designs over the decades but are best known for their world beating fighters - the tubby Wildcat, the Hellcat, the Tigercat, the Bearcat and the F-14 Tomcat. This book charts the history of these "cats" and illustrates many famous Navy fighter squadrons through the colourful markings of restored Grumman heavy metal both on the ground and in the skies.
From the Introduction:
With the decreased threat of world-wide military action from the collapse of what was known as the Soviet Union, American military contracts have been drastically cut back. One company to feel the stinging effects of these cutbacks is Grumman Aerospace which saw its superb F-14D Super Tomcat dropped and the final A-6 Intruder delivered to the Navy.
Grumman has built some of the finest naval warplanes of all times and this volume takes a look at the Grumman series of 'Cats - the Widlcat, Hellcat, Tigercat and Bearcat. For good measure a few Avengers and other Grumman warplanes have also been added.
What is depressing is the fact that so few of the many combat aircraft designed and built by Grumman exist today. The few that do survive and still fly are the products of a small group of individuals who, for various reasons, wanted to keep a famous segment of aviation history alive and flying. To this small band, all aviation enthusiasts owe a debt of thanks.
Michael O'Leary is the associate publisher of a group of aeronautical magazines. This is his eighth book for Osprey.
