This is an engrossing and enlightening survey of the evolution of the helicopter in modern warfare. When the helicopter was introduced into military service - initially as a medium for observation, transport, and medical evacuation - during World War II, few people could have imagined the profound effect it would come to have on virtually all aspects of modern warfare. "How the Helicopter Changed Modern Warfare" is an engrossing in-depth study, by noted military aviation expert Walter Boyne, which examines the origins, growth, and future of the helicopter in all areas of modern warfare - from tactical and strategic dominance on the battlefield to medical evacuation and even remotely-manned reconnaissance and conflict.
