The four US services deploy more than 5,000 front-line aircraft and 3,000 helicopters; their units serve in more than 20 allied countries and from carrier battle-groups in almost every ocean. The range of weaponry they deploy is the most devastating in military history. 

US Air Power tells the full story of this amazing war machine. Superb colour film – much of it specially de-classified for the programme – looks at all the major aircraft, helicopters, transports and weaponry. Throughout, the emphasis is on action, with much of the footage taken during training exercises and combat simulations. 

The programme encapsulates the organisation of America’s aerial fighting might and has a detailed script by leading aviation authority Bill Gunston.
