After the dust of World War II had settled, the military position of the UK was far from straightforward. It was of course allied to the USA and part of NATO, but it was at odds with the former in maintaining an Empire and the two nations also had competing oil interests in the Middle East. The UKs engagement in war after 1945 was thus a strange mixture ranging from homeland security through insular actions within the colonies or protectorates to preserve empire to playing a major role in confronting the USSR. The types of active involvement of the RAF, Fleet Air Arm and Army Air Corps between 1945 and 1995 include the following, with examples.Maintaining Local Stability Greece, Netherlands East Indies. Maintaining Empire Malaya, Kenya. Defending Empire Borneo. Defending Interests Suez, Kuwait. Homeland Security Northern Ireland, air defense. Confrontation Berlin Airlift, Korea. Covert Action Albania, strategic reconnaissance. Humanitarian and Peacekeeping Jordan, Cyprus. Development of Deterrent Bombs, bombers and missiles.

This book has a wealth of information on Britain's air arms from 1945-1990, but it could use some better editing. Some sections were repetitive and could've been more concise. Still, the content is solid for those who appreciate military history.

Good content, a bit dry at times
The historical details in this book are impressive, but I found some sections to be a bit slow. It's packed with info about air operations and strategy from 1945 to 1990, which is great. Just wish it had a bit more narrative flair to keep me engaged throughout.

Not for casual readers
While the book covers a lot about Britain's air arms, it felt like it was written more for enthusiasts. As someone who just wanted a light read, I found it a bit overwhelming with all the technical details. It’s informative but not very accessible.

A fascinating read for history buffs
As a big fan of military history, this book is a treasure! The detailed accounts of Britain's air arms in action really pulled me in. I loved the insights from 1945 to 1990, bringing to life some lesser-known stories. Highly recommend it if you're into aviation or military strategy.

Perfect gift for my dad!
Got this as a birthday gift for my father who served in the RAF. He loves it! The book dives into all the important events with solid illustrations. It’s great for anyone interested in the evolution of military air power.
