Swift-moving air assault units have become a vital part of modern warfare as elite forces such as the US and British paras, the US Rangers, and the Russian Spetsnaz prepare to strike suddenly and unpredictably deep behind enemy lines. 

Air Assault takes you to these elites, leaping from Black Hawks, Mi-8s, or Commandos to capture a strongpoint or dropping silently from a high-flying C-S Galaxy to seize a landing zone deep behind enemy lines. 

All major aspects and weaponry of this extraordinary new warfare are shown in unique action film some which was specially released. One climax is the build up and execution of Exercise Bright Star during which a full division-strength jump was made - probably the only time in the West since World War 2. 

The superb footage is accompanied by a detailed script by leading military authority Bill Gunston.
