Description:
(Subject: Aviation - General) The story of the fighter aircraft from its inception during WWI when aviators flying open cockpit Sopwiths, Bristols, Nieuports, Fokkers and Albatros's vied over the Western Front. The period between the wars saw biplane fighters superceded by sleek monoplanes such as the Spitfires and Messerschmits of the late '30s. WWII led to the advent of the jet which came into its own with missile armed types such as the Lightning, Phantom and Mirage of the 1970s.
