书籍简介

道格拉斯“毁灭者”是美国海军一架全金属战斗机，也是海军一架拥有全封闭式座舱的飞机、一架采用液压折叠机翼的飞机，以及一架投入实战的美国海军鱼雷轰炸机。

尽管在太平洋战争初期遭受了惨重的损失，驾驶“毁灭者”从“企业”号、“大黄蜂”号、“约克城”号和“列克星敦”号等知名航母甲板上起飞的勇敢飞行员们依然坚守阵地，抵抗敌人的进攻。

本书通过精心搜集的照片——其中许多照片从未公开发表，且以惊人的清晰度呈现——揭示了这架标志性飞机的历史和细节。

清晰的画面、许多照片的大尺寸，以及详尽的描述性文字说明，让读者仿佛置身于这架历史性飞机的翱翔蓝天之中。

The Douglas Devastator was the US Navy's first all-metal combat aircraft, the Navy's first airplane with a fully enclosed cockpit, the first aircraft to have hydraulically folding wings, and the first US Navy torpedo bomber to see combat.

Although facing staggering losses in the early stages of the war in the Pacific, the brave men flying the Devastator from the decks of such famed ships as Enterprise, Hornet, Yorktown, and Lexington held the line against the enemy.

Through carefully researched photos, many of which have never before been published and which are reproduced in remarkable clarity, the history and details of this iconic aircraft are revealed.

This clarity, and the large size of many of the photos, coupled with descriptive and informative captions, puts the reader in the skies with this historic aircraft.
