The collection contains advanced technology related full-text articles, granular access to millions of figures and tables within articles, and the entire range of bibliographic records from the Advanced Technologies Database with Aerospace (ATDWA). ATDWA brings together the most comprehensive bibliographic coverage of research, emerging technologies, applications and companies in the areas of aeronautics, astronautics, computer & information technology, electronics, communications, solid state devices and space sciences.
This resource is published annually. Our collection of Jane's All the World's Aircraft goes back to the first 1909 volume. Look for a volume corresponding to a year your assigned aircraft was in service.
