Captain Kevin Smith is a first generation Sonic Warrior. Sonic Warriors are Fighter Pilots trained to perform combat operations at the speed of sound, securing control of the airborne battle-space . As a Sonic Warrior, Captain Smith was able to perform at high velocities and G forces, while occupying a new reality never before encountered by humankind. Sonic Warriors, venturing into the unknown, rely on innovation, creativity, courage and faith, as well as devotion to duty. They operate at the airborne tip-of -the-spear. Captain Smith, a Sonic Warrior of distinction, was instrumental in upgrading close-in air combat capabilities of our Naval Air Force, and was the Commander of the first deployed Top Gun Unit. This book is his story….. Entering the realm of Sonic Warfare, Captain Kevin Smith takes flight for the first time on June 9th, 1965, in the world's first supersonic fighter aircraft, becoming a Sonic Warrior pioneer. This amazing chapter of aviation history is brought to life and celebrated in this book (and audio book) which chronicles the life of a fighter pilot who joined the ranks as one of the first Sonic Warriors trained to conduct combat operations at and above the speed of sound. As a Sonic Warrior and Top Gun pioneer, Captain Smith was directly responsible for solving one of aviation's greatest challenges, altering the course of aviation history where close-in air combat was not "headed for extinction". |
