{"product_id":"9781473894846","title":"US Military Helicopters by Michael Green","description":"The helicopter came on the scene too late to play other than a minor role in the Second World War but by the Korean conflict the Bell H-13 Sioux, OH-23 Raven and Sikorsky H-19 Chickasaw were in service.  It was in Vietnam that the US military helicopters really came into their own and the best known were the Bell UH-1 Iriquois (known as the Huey), the Boeing CH-47 Chinook and the massive CH-37 Mojave.  The USAF combat search and rescue Jolly Green Giant was indispensable.  Attack helicopters have evolved from the early Huey Cobra or Snake and the Boeing AH-64 Apache came into service in the late 80s when the Sikorsky UH-60 series became the military general purpose chopper.  All these formidable aircraft and many more are covered in detail in this superbly illustrated and comprehensive book.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56301493715317,"sku":"9781473894846","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781473894846.jpg?v=1762791154","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781473894846","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
