Bombers of the Luftwaffe
Dressel, Joachim - Griehl, Manfred
The aircraft and weapons of the Luftwaffe throughout World War Two are an ever-popular subject for study among enthusiasts, historians and modellers.
Few collections can rival this superb pictorial reference to the bombers of the Luftwaffe. As a companion volume to the recently published Fighters ofthe Luftwaffe, this new work follows the same formal showing the full range of aircraft and weapons alongside detailed technical and operational captions and summaries for each type. The result is a highly accessible and informative illustrated reference to the bombers built and designed for Luftwaffe operational use.
While it is generally well known that mainly twin engined medium range and payload aircraft made up the majority of the Luftwaffe bomber strength, this book provides little known details together with rare photographs of the larger four-engined designs that were planned and in some cases actually built.
Special printing processes have been used to make the most of these vintage archive photographs, more than 300 of which are reproduced here. With supporting design and operations text and captions, this book is a worthy companion to the Fighters volume and a valuable reference to the fascinating range of aircraft types and field modifications seen in the Luftwaffe from the 1930s to the collapse of 1945.
