A similar number achieved more than 40 victories--more than the two leading USAF and RAF fighter pilots.This volume of Day Fighter Aces of the Luftwaffe traces the story of the Luftwaffe's day fighter arm from 1942 through to the end of the war in Europe, covering missions over Russia in 1943, over the West and the Reich, the Eastern Front and the Mediterranean. Organized campaign by campaign, this chronological account interweaves brief biographical details, newly translated personal accounts and key moments in the careers of a host of notable and lesser known Luftwaffe aces. Fully illustrated with 200 contemporary photographs, maps and profiles of the aircraft flown by these aces, this is a visual delight for anyone with an interest in the day fighter aces of the Luftwaffe., A fully illustrated account of the Day Fighter Aces of the Luftwaffe from 1942 to 1945.

This volume of Day Fighter Aces of the Luftwaffe traces the story of the Luftwaffe's day fighter arm from 1942 through to the end of the war in Europe, covering missions over Russia in 1943, over the West and the Reich, the Eastern Front and the Mediterranean. Organized campaign by campaign, this chronological account interweaves brief biographical details, newly translated personal accounts and key moments in the careers of a host of notable and lesser known Luftwaffe aces. Fully illustrated with 200 contemporary photographs, maps and profiles of the aircraft flown by these aces, this is a visual delight for anyone with an interest in the day fighter aces of the Luftwaffe., From 1943 to the final defeat in 1945, the day fighter arm of the Luftwaffe was gradually overwhelmed. With a mere handful of Geschwader available, the day fighters were incapable of covering a 2,000-mile front in the East. In the West the U.S. bomber fleets and their long-range escorts took a heavy toll and losses mounted alarmingly. To make up the shortfall inexperienced pilots were thrown into the frontline units and only a handful of "great" aces continued to rack up victories. This Casemate Illustrated examines the personalities, exploits and experiences of the Tagjagd through to Germany's final defeat. The Casemate Illustrated series explores key elements of military history. Extensively illustrated with photographs, maps, and color profiles of tanks, aircraft, and other vehicles, each volume provides a wealth of visual detail. Profiles of key individuals and units, a timeline and explanatory text boxes support the narrative, which provides a dear overview of the battle or campaign and the experience of the forces involved.
