Description
The Secret Projects of the Luftwaffe Vol 7 reveals a wealth of new discoveries in German wartime aircraft development. Hundreds of thousands of classified documents captured at the end of World War II have been uncovered, shedding light on previously unknown project designs from top aircraft manufacturers. These documents, combined with new research in archives around the world, have uncovered radical, revolutionary, and unusual aircraft designs. Among the revelations are Focke-Wulf's designs for massive fighters built around bomber engines, an unusual night fighter rival to the Heinkel He 219, and Messerschmitt's alternative version of the Dornier Do 335. The book also explores the secret history of the Blohm & Voss BV 40's repurposing as a suicide bomber and the competition that led to the design of the Luftwaffe's last all-new piston engine fighter in 1944-45. Featuring hundreds of original and previously unseen documents, including period drawings and illustrations, this book provides an unrivalled look at some of Germany's least-known Second World War project designs.
