Although the Convair Aircraft Company built some of the world's best seaplanes and bombers during World War II the company's rise to prominence as a builder of fighters and attack aircraft did not occur until after 1945. This companion publication to Robert E Bradley's Convair Advanced Designs: Secret Projects from San Diego; 1923-1962; covers these new aircraft types in the same detailed and comprehensive style. Previously unpublished company photographs; models; and drawings of such radical concepts as a vertical takeoff ground-attack fighter and giant eight-engine double-decker military transport combine with other futuristic designs some of which eventually evolved into production aircraft. With much new and comprehensive information and highly detailed technical specifications; Convair Advanced Designs II is a natural follow-up for owners of Bradley's first volume.
