Hardcover from United States Naval Inst.German Jets Versus the U.S. Army Air Force : Battle for the Skies over Europe
German Jet Aces of World War 2
(Osprey Aircraft of the Aces, 17)
by Hugh Morgan, John Weal (Contributor), John Hugh
The Third Reich's last ditch efforts to combat the massed Allied bomber formations centred around the new jet-powered "wonder weapons" that were issued to the Jagdwaffe from mid-1944 onwards. Far in advance of anything the Allies had even in experimental phase, types such as the Me 262, He162 and 163, and the Ar 234 could perform their combat sorties with relative impunity. Detailing both the planes and the pilots, this volume looks at the handful of pilots who amassed amazing scores in the last year of the war with these aircraft, flying with units like JG 7, JV 44 and NJG 6.

Osprey Pub Co; ISBN: 184176020XKg200 Geheim Geschwader: The Luftwaffe's Most Secret Squadron
by Geoffrey Thomas
Book Description: Shrouded in secrecy and intrigue during its lifetime and myth and legend since its dissolution, the KG200 still remains one of the most fascinating units of the Luftwaffe. Delivering spies while flying captured Allied aircraft, clandestine reconnaissance missions over land and sea, testing new weapons such as the 'Mistel' composite bomber and the piloted V-1, and extremely long-range liaison flights were just some of their tasks.
But there was also a more sinister aspect to their operations: men from KG200 played a significant part in the notorious action against the French Resistance on the Vercors plateau, others were involved in what were effectively suicide missions. Geoff Thomas's deeply researched text throws new light on all aspects of this unit, dispels a number of myths and shows that despite its 'special' status, KG200 was just as much a prey to the Nazi hierarchy's power politics as every other branch of Wehrmacht, with results that were often tragic but frequently farcical.

Luftwaffe : The Illustrated History of the German Air Force in World War II
The Luftwaffe : Creating the Operational Air War 1918-1940 (Modern War Studies)
James S. Corum
Book Description: At the end of World War I, the German military machine lay devastated, forbidden any attempt to rebuild. But by the dawn of World War II, its army and air forces both had been rejuvenated to sufficient vigor to conquer most of Europe. As James Corum shows, the Luftwaffe's dramatic resurrection underscored the remarkable success of Germany's visionary interwar planning.A superb example of both military and intellectual history, Corum's study provides a complete and accurate account of the evolution of German military aviation theory, doctrine, war games, and operations between the two world wars. It reveals how the Germans, in defiance of Versailles, thoroughly studied and tested the lessons of World War I, analyzed the emerging air doctrines of other nations, and experimented with innovative aviation technology to create the world's most powerful air force by 1940.
Drawing heavily upon archival sources, Corum discloses the debates within the General Staff--led by the likes of Hans van Seeckt, Helmuth Wilberg, Wolfram von Richthofen, and Walter Wever--about the future role of airpower and the problems of aligning aviation technology with air doctrine. He challenges previous accounts and demolishes a number of myths, for example demonstrating that Germany did not dismiss the potential of strategic bombing or embrace terror bombing of civilian populations, and was not heavily influenced by its popular culture's romance with aviation.
Corum also illuminates Germany's comprehensive approach to highly mobile combined-arms warfare, its secret research and training in the Soviet Union, and its remarkable successes during the Spanish Civil War. While focusing primarily on the interwar period, he extends his analysis into the early years of World War II to examine the Luftwaffe's effectiveness in Poland and France, and expose its flaws in the Battle of Britain.
As a companion to Corum's acclaimed study of the German army between the wars, The Luftwaffe reminds us how operational doctrine, combined with one of the greatest fighting forces ever assembled, indelibly altered the fate of nations.
This book is part of the Modern War Studies series.

HardcoverThe Sea Eagles : The Luftwaffe's Maritime Operations 1939-1945
(Luftwaffe at War, 17)
by Peter Charles Smith
Luftwaffe operations against allied shipping formed a crucial element in the Third Reich's efforts to win the war. German anti-shipping units were called upon to cripple warships, sink merchantmen, damage port installations, reconnoiter vast expanses of ocean and scatter convoys from as early as the Spanish Civil War right through to the dark days of 1945. The Sea Eagles draws upon a brilliant array of rare images to present the complete story of Luftwaffe anti-shipping units, their personnel and their aircraft. Peter Smith includes photographs, taken in all the key German campaigns of World War II, of such mainstays as the He 59, the He 111, the Do 17 and the giant FW 200 ('Kondor'), as well as more unusual types and variants such as the rare BV 222 and the specially converted Me 109T.

Paperback - 72 pagesSecret Messerschmitt Projects (Schiffer Military History Book)
by Willy Radinger, Walter Schick
The P1101 was Messerschmitt's second jet aircraft after the Me 262. Designed as a fighter, the test version of this type was to serve as an experimental aircraft to test the swept wing concept. After World War II, the P1101 was brought to the U.S.A. and served there, among other things, as a testbed for the similar developments. Photos and data of this astonishing, yet understandably unknown aircraft with its futuristic technology are rare. This new book is a comprehensive documention. where not only the development history with all the important data concerning the P1101 is gathered, but also photos, detailed facts and figures about this aircraft. Of particular note are the numerous tabular comparisons with similar German and foreign aircraft from the war and post-war era. While there are innumerable German technical publications about well-known, mass-produced Messerschmitt aircraft, the authors have been successful with this book in supplementing these works with the portrayal of the last almost completed Messerschmitt aircraft.
