Coles Airmen Over Vietnam: The AC-130 Spectre Story at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
THE SKY ABOVE VIETNAM WAS A HUNTING GROUND
And the hunters flew a gunship called Spectre.
A Secret War in the Darkness
Deep within the jungles of Southeast Asia, the Ho Chi Minh Trail pulsed with the lifeblood of the North Vietnamese war machine. Convoys of trucks carried weapons, fuel, and soldiers through the night, hidden beneath the dense jungle canopy.
Destroying them was nearly impossible.
Until the United States Air Force unleashed a weapon unlike anything the enemy had ever seen.
The AC-130 Spectre gunship.
The Night Reaper of the Jungle
Major Jack Calvorsen and the crew of Spectre 17 fly one of the most dangerous missions of the Vietnam War.
Their aircraft is a flying arsenal armed with devastating cannons and guided by the most advanced night-fighting technology ever deployed in combat. Under cover of darkness, they hunt enemy convoys threading through the mountains of Laos and Vietnam.
But every mission takes them deeper into hostile territory.
Enemy anti-aircraft guns wait in the jungle.
Missiles stalk the night sky.
And every time Spectre circles its target, the aircraft becomes the most visible target in the sky.
Brothers in the Line of Fire
Inside the gunship, the crew is a tight brotherhood of American airmen drawn from farms, cities, and small towns across the Midwest.
They are pilots, gunners, navigators, and sensor operators.
Together they form a single machine of precision and destruction.
Every man knows the truth.
If Spectre goes down over the jungle, rescue may never come.
The War No One Sees
Night after night, the crew launches into the darkness, chasing enemy convoys along the infamous Ho Chi Minh Trail. Each mission is a deadly gamble against radar, anti-aircraft fire, and mechanical failure.
Some nights they return as heroes.
Some nights they barely return at all.
And one mission will test them beyond anything they have faced before.
AIRMEN OVER VIETNAM is a gripping military aviation thriller that brings readers inside the cockpit of one of the most feared aircraft of the Vietnam War.
For fans of military aviation fiction, Vietnam War combat stories, and action-packed war novels , this story delivers the adrenaline, danger, and brotherhood of air combat like never before.
Because in the jungles of Vietnam…
The war belonged to the men who ruled the night.
