Through a collection of dramatic and informative photographs, supplemented by cutaway illustrations, this book highlights the agility and flexibility of this dedicated RAF aircraft. Throughout the course of its career, it has formed the backbone of the RAF across its many different theatres of operation. Utilised in a strike, anti-aircraft, air superiority, air defence, reconnaissance, electronic warfare and fighter-bomber capacity, this aircraft type has enjoyed an immensely varied career. Each aspect is illustrated in this photographic celebration. The book includes photographs by the author and a select number of other amateur photographers, with the vast majority of photographs - never previously published - taken low level around the hills and mountains of England, Scotland and Wales. This impressive new photographic publication will be presented in full colour and is sure to be prized as a collector's piece amongst fans of the genre. AUTHOR: Michael Leek has long had an interest in all the various technological developments of military aviation. In addition to writing books, it is through digital photography that his interest in military aviation continues.

His book, 'Military Low Flying in the UK', was published by Pen and Sword in February 2012, with 'The British Aerospace Hawk: A Photographic Tribute' published in 2014. His aviation photographs have been published in many magazines. Illustrated
