For the Hellenic Air Force, 2010 is a landmark year marking the passage of 80 years since HAF's establishment as an independent Service Branch of the Hellenic Armed Forces. Promptly responding to that, SPECIAL PROJECTS Custom Publishing House and the Hellenic Air Force yearbook (HAFy) compiled HAF / 80 YEARS (HAF/80th Anniversary Special Edition) to commemorate the 80-year-long contribution of our Air Force to the Hellenic national defense.
HAF / 80 YEARS book constitutes an unprecedented and unique photo documentary which records in the most fascinating way imaginable the day-to-day flying operations of contemporary Hellenic Air Force, a side of HAF wholly invisible to outsiders. Under this scope, this highly collectible edition shows Hellenic Air Force aircraft executing the most dynamic maneuvers possible; flying in exceptionally unusual mixed formations; and carrying the most impressive weapons configurations ever photographed on Hellenic aircraft!
From the latest F-16 Block 52M Fighting Falcon and Mirage 2000-5 up to the oldest T-41D Mescalero, reader will go into raptures over the countless photo exclusives of this book. HAF / 80 YEARS aims at becoming an internationally acknowledged point of reference, since it also breaks ground on an international level by featuring only previously unpublished aerial shots of each and every aircraft type serving with an Air Force! No shot was taken on the ground!
In HAF / 80 YEARS all the Hellenic Air Force's impressive fleet is captured through stunning, adrenalin-fuelled images that make readers actually feel they fly on the wings of the Hellenic Air Force. Every single type of aircraft, every Combat Wing and flying Squadron, and each and every type of operational mission has its own special place within this publication and is showcased in a manner never attempted before!
The book's illustrations become complete with 16 anecdotal profiles of aircraft that made history by wearing the Greek national emblems. This artwork is created by a leading aircraft illustrator, Georgios Psarras. Additionally, a unique timeline spanning 80 years features the Hellenic Air Force's most significant landmarks!
