Trooper117 Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 A concise history of the Korean conflict... Taking place shortly after WWII, you will see aircraft, vehicles, tanks, ships, weapons and equipment that you will recognise were used in the previous conflict. As well as some more 'modern' hardware for the time. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boom Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Allow me to offer some suggestions for that reading. I have to say that I find the Air War over Korea fascinating. Usually when someone mentions the Korean Air War most foks immediatley think Sabre's v MiG's. If that's so, a good balance of claim and counterclaim are the following. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boom Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 And it was within the air-ground war that most of the Allied support took place. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boom Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 A broader view of the air conflict and it's impact on the ground war can be found here. I especially recommend Robert jacksons book, as it details total losses suffered by the USAF and USn in the conflict. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boom Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 The main air protagionists during the conflict were the KPAF and the PLAAF. Books are few and far between on these services. But two of the best I have come across are: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
