Review:

“Aviation historiography of Korea’s aerial war has been well-served by Richard Hallion, Naval Air War in Korea, who has covered the operational and tactical roles played by the U.S. Navy.” – H-Net Reviews

“In The Naval Air War in Korea, Dr. Hallion has captured the fact, feel- ing, and fancy of a very important conflict in aviation history, in- cluding the highly significant facets of the transition from piston to jet-propelled combat aircraft.”—Norman Polmar, author of Naval Institute Guide to the Ships and Aircraft of the U.S. Fleet, 18th Edition
