Illustrated with more than 130 helicopter artworks and photos, Technical Guide: Modern Military Helicopters is an essential reference guide for modellers and aerial warfare enthusiasts.

Since the 1950s, helicopters have developed to become a key component of armies everywhere, providing attack, transport and reconnaissance capabilities to land and maritime forces throughout the world.

From deadly fighting machines like the US Army's AH-64 Apache and the Russian Mil Mi-24 'Hind', to efficient, multipurpose utility helicopters such as the Bell 222 and Harbin Z-9, Modern Military Helicopters is an accessible guide to the most important rotary-winged aviation in service today.

The book is organised by type: attack, reconnaissance, utility, transport and maritime. Find out about
