Publisher's Synopsis
The XF-86 Sabre jet. It was the most sophisticated air weapon ever developed-or so America hoped as the nation faced the chilling dawn of the Cold War. But first it had to be tested... in the perilous New Mexico proving grounds of the new age of atomic warfare... The men who flew the test missions were as fine-tuned as their machines-but it was the stuff they were made of that made the difference... in a savage secret war in the Korean skies and in-fighting on the ground that never made the headlines but made and changed history... You'll also want to read Desert Lightning, the first exciting novel in this rousing new series about U.S. test pilots, STORM BIRDS
