Hammer From Above Marine Air Combat Over Iraq is a book that tells the story of the United States Marine Corps' air combat operations during the Iraq War. The book focuses on the experiences of the pilots and ground crews who flew and maintained the F/A-18 Hornet, the primary fighter jet used by the Marines during the conflict. It provides a detailed account of the battles and campaigns fought by the Marines in the skies over Iraq, highlighting the bravery and sacrifice of those who served in this capacity. The book begins with an introduction to the history of the F/A-18 Hornet and its development, followed by an overview of the events leading up to the Iraq War. It then delves into the experiences of the Marines during the war, including their training, deployment, and combat missions. The author draws on interviews with pilots, maintainers, and other personnel involved in the conflict to provide a firsthand account of what it was like to serve in this capacity. One of the key themes of the book is the evolution of technology and how it impacted the conduct of air combat during the war. The author notes how the F/A-18 Hornet's advanced sensors and weapons systems allowed the Marines to engage enemy targets with greater precision and effectiveness than ever before. He also explores how the integration of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and other technologies expanded the capabilities of the Marines and enhanced their situational awareness. However, the book also acknowledges the human cost of war and the sacrifices made by those who fought in Iraq.
Hammer From Above Marine Air Combat Over Iraq - книга, повествующая о воздушных боевых действиях Корпуса морской пехоты США во время Иракской войны. Книга посвящена опыту пилотов и наземных экипажей, которые летали и обслуживали F/A-18 Hornet, основной истребитель, использовавшийся морскими пехотинцами во время конфликта. В нем приводится подробный отчет о сражениях и кампаниях, которые морские пехотинцы вели в небе над Ираком, подчеркивая храбрость и жертвенность тех, кто служил в этом качестве. Книга начинается с введения в историю F/A-18 Hornet и его разработки, за которым следует обзор событий, предшествовавших войне в Ираке. Затем она углубляется в опыт морских пехотинцев во время войны, включая их обучение, развертывание и боевые задачи. Автор использует интервью с пилотами, сопровождающими и другим персоналом, вовлеченным в конфликт, чтобы из первых рук рассказать о том, каково было служить в этом качестве. Одна из ключевых тем книги - эволюция технологий и то, как она повлияла на ведение воздушного боя во время войны. Автор отмечает, как передовые датчики и системы вооружения F/A-18 Hornet позволили морским пехотинцам поражать вражеские цели с большей точностью и эффективностью, чем когда-либо прежде. Он также исследует, как интеграция беспилотных летательных аппаратов (БПЛА) и других технологий расширила возможности морских пехотинцев и повысила их ситуационную осведомленность. Однако в книге также признается человеческая цена войны и жертвы, принесенные теми, кто воевал в Ираке.
Hammer From Above Marine Air Combat Over Iraq è un libro che parla dei combattimenti aerei del Corpo dei Marine degli Stati Uniti durante la guerra in Iraq. Il libro parla dell'esperienza dei piloti e degli equipaggi di terra che hanno viaggiato e servito il F/A-18 Hornet, il principale caccia usato dai marine durante il conflitto. Fornisce un resoconto dettagliato delle battaglie e delle campagne che i marines hanno condotto nel cielo dell'Iraq, sottolineando il coraggio e il sacrificio di coloro che hanno servito in questo ruolo. Il libro inizia con l'introduzione e lo sviluppo di F/A-18 Hornet, seguito da una panoramica degli eventi precedenti alla guerra in Iraq. Poi si approfondisce l'esperienza dei marines durante la guerra, inclusi il loro addestramento, il loro dispiegamento e le loro attività di combattimento. L'autore utilizza interviste con piloti, accompagnatori e altri agenti coinvolti nel conflitto per rivelare in prima mano come si è sentito di servire in questa qualità. Uno dei temi chiave del libro è l'evoluzione della tecnologia e come ha influenzato il combattimento aereo durante la guerra. L'autore sottolinea come i sensori avanzati e i sistemi di armamento F/A-18 Hornet hanno permesso ai marines di colpire obiettivi nemici con più precisione ed efficienza che mai. Sta anche esplorando come l'integrazione tra i droni e altre tecnologie abbia ampliato le capacità dei marines e aumentato la loro consapevolezza della situazione. Ma nel libro si riconosce anche il costo umano della guerra e del sacrificio fatto da coloro che hanno combattuto in Iraq.
Hammer From Above Marine Air Combat Over Iraq ist ein Buch über die Luftkämpfe des United States Marine Corps während des Irak-Krieges. Das Buch konzentriert sich auf die Erfahrungen von Piloten und Bodencrews, die die F/A-18 Hornet, den Hauptkämpfer der Marines während des Konflikts, geflogen und gewartet haben. Es bietet einen detaillierten Bericht über die Schlachten und Kampagnen, die die Marines am Himmel über dem Irak führten, und unterstreicht die Tapferkeit und Opferbereitschaft derjenigen, die in dieser Funktion gedient haben. Das Buch beginnt mit einer Einführung in die Geschichte der F/A-18 Hornet und ihrer Entwicklung, gefolgt von einem Überblick über die Ereignisse vor dem Irakkrieg. Dann vertieft sie sich in die Erfahrung der Marines während des Krieges, einschließlich ihrer Ausbildung, ihres Einsatzes und ihrer Kampfeinsätze. Der Autor verwendet Interviews mit Piloten, Begleitpersonen und anderen am Konflikt beteiligten Mitarbeitern, um aus erster Hand darüber zu sprechen, wie es war, in dieser Funktion zu dienen. Eines der Hauptthemen des Buches ist die Entwicklung der Technologie und wie sie die Luftkampfführung während des Krieges beeinflusst hat. Der Autor stellt fest, wie die fortschrittlichen F/A-18 Hornet-Sensoren und Waffensysteme es den Marines ermöglichten, feindliche Ziele mit größerer Genauigkeit und Effizienz als je zuvor zu treffen. Er untersucht auch, wie die Integration von unbemannten Luftfahrzeugen (UAVs) und anderen Technologien die Fähigkeiten der Marines erweitert und ihr tuationsbewusstsein erhöht hat. Das Buch erkennt jedoch auch die menschlichen Kosten des Krieges und die Opfer an, die von denen gebracht werden, die im Irak gekämpft haben.
