1st Edition.
This is the story of how the first steps to deliver a torpedo from an aircraft were made, a story of both the aircraft and the weapons themselves - from the creation of the torpedo-bomber and its rapid wartime development, to today's helicopter-borne models of amazing sophistication.
This is also the story of the airborne anti-ship missile's entire development span, with many reports of wartime actions and the people involved.
