Produktbeschreibung

A view of British and American WWII bombing raids with over 250 color images, diagrams, and operational maps: "An excellent entry-level introduction." - Air Power History Following the Battle of France in 1940, British Bomber Command launched its response to the then-almighty Wehrmacht. Sadly, its beginnings were not at all promising: Its resources were limited and the twin-engine aircraft in service had a very limited load capacity, as well as being vulnerable to the Luftwaffe. The progressive entry into service of the great four-engine planes would change the situation, but the great problem of nighttime raids, such as correctly identifying targets and a precise launching of the bombs, would never be adequately resolved. This extensively illustrated history offers a detailed look at this aspect of military aviation history.
