Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)A high glossy paper/photo book, this reads a lot like a manufactuers pamphlet...you will not find any criticism of the UH-60 in here. It's good, fast reading with many excellent color photos and details that would be very helpful to a modeler.
In 94 pages, the author gives you a brief overview of each version of the famous cargo helicopter of the US Army, the Black Hawk. I see this as a very enjoyable book for someone starting out with an interest in helicopters or as a supplement to other books that are more "nuts and bolts" or statistics and data oriented.
Affordable, nice to have on your bookshelf.

In 1978, Sikorsky introduced the UH60 helicopter as a transport, medevac, special ops, escort, and reconnaissance platform to replace the UH-1 "Huey" that had become a legend in Vietnam. Nearly a quarter century hence, the "Black Hawk" remains the world's premiere military helicopter.This colorful look back at the namesake of the 2001 blockbuster film examines the development, capabilities, specifications, and active service of variants by branch of service-Army, Navy, and Air Force. Within each chapter, author Steve Tomajczyk describes the histories and specifications of task-specific variants and profiles typical missions. Included are the UH-60Q Medevac, MH-60 Night Stalkers, SH-60B Sea Hawk, MH-60G Pave Hawk special ops (infiltration and search-and-rescue), and the CH-60 Sea Hawk amphibious support aircraft, among others.
