Description

The Dornier Do 335 was a revolutionary aircraft designed to dominate the skies during World War II. Weighing over 10,000kg, yet powered by two powerful engines, it achieved incredible speeds of up to 750km/h. This remarkable fighter was intended for multiple roles, including day fighting, bombing, and reconnaissance. Featuring archive photography and specially commissioned artwork, this book tells the full story of the Do 335's development and deployment. With its advanced armament, bomb sights, communications, and radar equipment, it represented the pinnacle of piston-engined aircraft design. Just forty aircraft were built between late 1943 and the end of the war, making it a rare glimpse into Germany's aviation history. This book provides a detailed look at the Do 335's design, capabilities, and operational history, shedding light on an often-overlooked aspect of World War II aviation.
