The Jet Duel: Sabres, MiGs, and the Birth of Modern Air Combat tells the story of the first great jet fighter war: the high-speed battles between the North American F-86 Sabre and the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 over Korea.

Clear, fact-based, and written in plain English, this book explains how the Korean War transformed military aviation. It follows the road from late Second World War fighter design to swept wings, jet engines, high-altitude combat, radar direction, gunsights, bomber vulnerability, and the rise of Cold War air power. At the centre of the story is MiG Alley, where American, Soviet, Chinese, North Korean, and United Nations airmen fought in a sky shaped by speed, politics, secrecy, and survival.
