Thanks for looking! This illustrated history of "gunships," or heavily armed aircraft, offers military and aviation enthusiasts a thorough review of the history, armaments and exploits of these "unique weapon systems." Mutza, a noted aviation author and former U.S. Army helicopter crew chief, profiles such famous gunships as the Douglas C-47 Skytrain, Fairchild C-119 Flying Boxcar, the Lockheed C-130 Hercules and the plane that started it all, the commercial Douglas DC-3. The author also describes modern variants of traditional gunships that still patrol the skies in various countries around the world.
