Instruments of Darkness
ISBN: 9781473895645 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The rapid evolution of radio and radar systems for military use during World War II, and devices to counter them, led to a technological battle that neither the Axis nor the Allied powers could afford to lose. The result was a continual series of thrusts, parries, and counter-thrusts, as first one side then the other sought to wrest the initiative in the struggle to control the ether. This was a battle fought with strange-sounding weapons--"Freya," "Mandrel," "Boozer," and "Window"--and characterized by the bravery, self-sacrifice, and skill of those who took part in it. During the war,...

Spitfire Mark V Aces 1941 45
ISBN: 9781855326354 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. As the first Spitfire variant to see extensive service outside of Britain, the Mk V fought the Axis alliance over the deserts of North Africa, the waters of the Mediterranean and the vast expanses of the Indian Ocean off the northern coast of Australia. Initially produced in haste to combat the arrival of new German fighters (the Bf 109F and the Fw 190) on the Channel front, the Mk V had been created simply by pairing a Mk I or II fuselage with the new Merlin 45 engine - so successfully that some 6479 airframes were eventually built. Although often outclassed (particularly on the Channel...

Spitfire Mark I/II Aces 1939-41
ISBN: 9781855326279 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Spitfire Mk Is and IIs served only briefly in the frontline with the RAF, but their pilots were responsible for achieving impressive scores against the Luftwaffe during 1940/41. This volume details the RAF's first aces of World War 2 who helped stem the German tide during Britain's struggle for survival in the bitter years between 1939 and 1941. Early-mark Spitfires were notorious for their light armament, overheating engines and short range, but during the dogfights over Dunkirk and south-east England, then the first tentative sweeps across France, many pilots achieved scores of note.
