Title: AD Skyraider Units of the Korean War
Post by: James on February 16, 2016, 02:24:12 AM

As was mentioned, Osprey may not be doing World War I titles anymore, and like World War I, Korean War Aviation may have less a following/interest than World War I. Anyway tomorrow, a new Osprey book - AD Skyraider Units of the Korean War by Rick Burgess, comes out. Not much has been written about the Skyraider and/or Skyraider crews during the Korean War so this will be a very welcome addition.

Don't know if any of y'all here have an interest in Korean War Aviation but I thought I pass this information along.

Thanks for the heads up, though too late for my model!

(Hasegawa 1/72 backdated to AD-4 from VA-75 with Euro Decals)

Will see if I can pick up the book :) I have another Skyraider to undergo the same treatment, but to an AD-2 this time.

The book is incredible. Nice to see something about the Skyyraider in Korea. That is a very nice model.
