The blend of military and aircraft history is detailed and will even attract more general-interest a

In 1996 the U.S. military moved its Top Gun Navy weapons school to Fallan, joining others in a new command center to help create a top-notch air combat training school backed by all military branches. Strike Beyond Top Gun traces the history of the NSAWC, from early combat operations to the idea of creating the Top Gun school. Various missions, changing fighter model choices, and academy training routines are presented along with gorgeous full-color photos on every page of planes against scenic backdrops. The blend of military and aircraft history is detailed and will even attract more general-interest audiences. Diane C. Donovan California Bookwatch
