      Válka reaktivních stíhaček, i tak se dá nazvat konflikt na Korejském poloostrově. Autoři se ovšem nezabývají pouze stíhacími esy - americkými a sovětskými - látajícími na Mig-15 a F-86 Sabre. Představena jsou letadla, která se proslavila za bojů druhé světové války, korejský konflikt byl ale jejich labutí písní.

      The first virtually all-jet war, the conflict in Korea saw F-86 Sabres of the USAF take on MiG-15s of the North Korean and Chinese air forces. Although the Allied pilots were initially taken aback by the ability of the communist fighter in combat, sound training and skilful leadership soon enabled Sabre pilots to dominate the dogfights over the Yalu River. In all 39 F-86 pilots achieved ace status, and a number of these are profiled in this volume, as are notable pilots from the US Navy, Marine Corps and Royal Navy and, for the first time, the handful of MiG-15 aces.
