Patriot Flugabwehrrakatensystem (Five Stars)





If you're interested in the Patriot Air Defense System then this is the book for you. While thin, the book is packed with information about how the Patriot system functions and how U.S. Army Patriot battalions are organized. There is even a little bit about the weapon system's developmental history and its role in Operation Desert Storm. But for someone who wants to build a model of the system or just likes to see details of military equipment then the black-and-white and color photos are great. The book is a little repetitious in places and could have used a few photos of Patriots in operation during ODS and Iraqi Freedom, but other than that a great product.


The book even uses examples of equipment from 1-7 ADA, my first unit assignment!
