The United States has the world's largest air force, with over 6,000 aircraft in service. This dynamic book uses origami, the Japanese art of paper folding, to take a look at some of the better known planes and cargo used by the men and women who serve in the United States Air Force. Clearly illustrated, step-by-step instructions take students through the process of folding their own origami aircraft, drawing special attention to the specific features that define these iconic planes. Students will use their newfound origami skills to fold bombers, jet fighters, cargo containers, and other airplanes and gear.
