Yeah, I've got it.

Part of a very long-running series (this is no.57), all in a standard 96-page format. The author interviewed a number of crews who took part, so there are some first-person war stories, some nice (though small) colour photos, and about 20 colour profiles of various individual aircraft which took part.

Recommended.

They've done quite a few others concerning OIF, including F-14, F-15, F/A-18, etc.

I have the first one. Great layout of what units deployed where, and generally lays out combat actions, but even after I'd read it 3 times through, it seems to have a strange emphasis on helos breaking down or getting shot, and goes into more detail about that than about what it shot up or shot down. Great pics, though- tons of great pics and art!
