The Imperial Japanese Army Air Service (often called the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force (Dainippon Teikoku Rikugun Kokutai,Dainippon Teikoku Rikugun Kokubutai) (IJAAS or IJAAF), was the land-based aviation force of the Imperial Japanese Army. As with the IJA itself, the IJAAF was developed along the lines of Imperial German Army Aviation so its primary mission was to provide tactical close air support for ground troops while maintaining a limited air interdiction capability. The JAAF also provided important reconnaissance support for the Army. However, the Army Air Service usually did not control the light aircraft or balloons deployed and operated by the Imperial Japanese Army artillery battalions as spotters or observers.

The XB-51 has a special glamour among the many projects that were born in the early 50s, and never came to fruition. With its spectacular looks, its variable incidence wing, and its bristling performance on 3 engines, the XB-51 could have been a star of the late 50s and the 60s. Politics, and the competition from a very able opponent, the EE Canberra, decided otherwise. This book is an excellent pictorial tribute to this machine, with a lot of fantastic details, like the cockpit, the weapons bay, the landing gear bays, in the true fashion of Steve Ginter's Naval Fighters' series. A must have for aviation buffs and modellers.

Первый показ этого самолета на июньском воздушном параде 1956 года произвел эффект разорвавшейся бомбы - стремительная серебристая стрела со скоростью "за два звука", феноменальной высотностью и скороподъемностью знаменовала новый прорыв советского авиапрома и "выход из тени" (по выражению западной печати) П.О.Сухого, ОКБ которого было воссоздано сразу после смерти Сталина.
