This book covers the General Dynamics F-16A/B Netz with the  Israeli Air Force Knights of the North Squadron from 1980-1987.

This book includes 37 colour photos and about 340 black and white photos covering the day to day operations and very interesting missions that were tasked to this Squadron.  And interesting missions they were:

• Iraqi nuclear plant bombing mission in 1981
• First kill by an F-16....by any F-16 worldwide
• War in Lebanon and the aerial engagements with the Syrian Air force jets in the early 1980's

The book is divided into the following chapters:

• Introduction
• First Flight
• Arrival and Getting Operational
• Attack in Iraq
• First Kill
• Deployments and Conversions
• Winds of War
• Lebanon War
• Back to Routine

This is mostly a picture book full of historical photos that take you on the flightline and even some HUD and bomb camera photos from the flight into Iraq and the bomb mission photos when the nuclear reactor was destroyed.  The text does a wonderful job to explain the photos and tell the stories of this famous Israeli Squadron.

The book finishes off with 9 side view colour profiles of the significant jets in the Knights of the North Squadron including 2 that were part of the Iraqi mission and other jets that scored kills against the Syrian Air Force as well as the Israeli F-16 that scored the first air to air victory of any F-16 worldwide.
