Product Description
In 1914, the Royal Artillery began an acivity quite unlike any which had gone before - the engagement of a target moving at speed and in three dimensions in space. The fourth volume in a series tracing the history of the Royal Regiment of Artillery, this book covers the development and operational success of anti-aircraft artillery. The achievements of the men and women shine through the book. With the Royal Air Force, they defended the cities at home and the field armies in desert, jungle and the rain and cold of Europe. This is not a technical account, yet it demonstrates the problems of air defence and ways developed to solve them.
