EXPOSING THE TRUE SCALE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE DEPLOYMENT OF AIR
POWER IN THE BALKANS, THIS BOOK DETAILS THE ACTIVITIES OF NATO AND UN
AIRCRAFT AS WELL AS LOCAL PILOTS IN THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA.
From bombing by B-2 stealth bombers to air-to-air combat; from moving
ground troops by helicopter to 'food-bombing' for refugees, air power
played a vital role in 'Europe's Vietnam', and there is little sign
that the fires of conflict are being extinguished. As this book
discusses alongside detailed illustrations, debate amongst air power
practitioners has yielded little agreement as to the degree of damage
inflicted on the Yugoslav 3rd Army in Kosovo, and the Balkans continue
to be a region of conflict and ethnic hatred.
