Combat Aircraft – September 2018

The 116-page September issue of Combat Aircraft is all about TOPGUN — with a free 24-page special supplement dedicated to the world’s most famous unit. TOPGUN turns 50 in 2019 and this issue details its history, the F-14 Tomcats of TOPGUN and the school today at NAS Fallon.

The issue is also packed with features on ‘Red Flag - Alaska’, a focus on the Su-34 ‘Fullback’, the Canadian fighter competition, a full analysis of the Team Tempest fighter concept revealed in July, UK carrier air power, the Mirage 2000N as it bows out of service, plus another incredible ‘from the cockpit’ story from U-2 pilot Rick Bishop. All of this plus our regular columns, and a unit review of the KC-130Js of VMGR-252.
