Abstract
First, the statistics. This issue of Jane's—corrected to September 1, 1962—contains a total of 504 pages apart from the two page preface by the Editor and 24 pages of indexes at the end of the book. Divided into six separate sections, it contains descriptions of the aeroplanes of thirty‐five countries, the sailplanes of twenty‐four countries, the target drones of six countries, the air cushion vehicles of seven countries, the guided missiles, rockets and space vehicles of seventeen countries and the aero engines of fourteen countries. By adopting a new method of information presentation it has been possible to increase the amount of new data in the book without increasing the actual number of pages. The fact that this edition of Jane's is no mere rehash of the 1961–62 number is underlined further by the inclusion of almost 600 new illustrations.
