Gustaf Mannerheim
ISBN: 9781472814425 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim is a legendary figure, whose life and career were deeply influential in Finnish and European history. He is viewed by many as the father of modern Finland after leading the 'White' faction to victory and independence in the Finnish Civil War of 1918. That conflict preceded a sequence of bitter clashes between Finland, Soviet Russia and Nazi Germany in the buildup to, and during, World War II: The Winter War in 1940, the Continuation War and the Lapland War in 1944-45. Throughout these fierce clashes in the ice and snow, Mannerheim managed his forces with great...

US Marine Corps Tanks of World War II
ISBN: 9781849085601 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The US Marine Corps formed six tank battalions in World War II which saw combat in some of the most varied and extreme conditions of the Pacific theater. The Marine tank battalions fought on small coral atolls such as Tarawa, in the fetid jungles of the south west Pacific including Guadalcanal, in the lush central Pacific islands of the Marianas such as Saipan and Guam, and on the volcanic deserts of the Bonin islands such as Iwo Jima. The tank equipment of the Marine Corps was essentially the same as that used by the US Army: the M3 and M5A1 light tanks, and the M4 Sherman medium tanks. But...

US Amphibious Tanks of World War II
ISBN: 9781849086363 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The advent of combined arms operations in World War II created the need for specialized armored vehicles. In the case of amphibious attacks, the issue arose of how best to land tanks on a beach. Although a variety of specialized landing craft were developed, the Dieppe raid in 1942 encouraged the development of tanks that could be deployed from further off-shore to limit the vulnerability of the LCT craft. The deep-wading equipment that they developed was first used during Operation Husky on Sicily in July 1943, and subsequently for Operations Avalanche (Salerno, September 1943), Shingle...

Czołgi japońskie 1939-1945
ISBN: 9788365652454 / Polski / Miękka / 2016 / 52 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Japońska armia w okresie przedwojennym używała czołgów w szerokim zakresie i ze sporymi sukcesami. Zainspirowany konstrukcjami europejskimi, nowatorski program konstrukcji czołgów ułatwił Japończykom prowadzenie kampanii w Chinach przed wybuchem wojny na Pacyfiku w grudniu 1941. Podczas późniejszych starć z Aliantami w początkowym stadium konfliktu, czołgi skierowano z dużą wyobraźnią do walki w terenie porośniętym dżunglą, wcześniej uważanym za niemożliwy do spenetrowania przez tego typu pojazdy. W ten sposób odegrały ważną rolę w kampanii na Malajach i...

Amtracs : US Amphibious Assault Vehicles
ISBN: 9781855328501 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The first prototype for the LVT (Landing Vehicle Tracked) was completed in July 1941, its design based on the Alligator, a tracked amphibious vehicle developed for rescue operations in the swamps of Florida. Though the early conception of amtrac operations envisioned using LVTs solely as supply vehicles, at Tarawa amtracs demonstrated their utility as assault vehicles to carry troops, leading to the development of new models. This book covers the evolution of amtracs, from the first LVT-1 to the LVT-7; their numerous variants; and their use throughout World War II and beyond.

Francuskie czołgi w latach II wojny światowej (1)
ISBN: 9788365652379 / Polski / Miękka / 2016 / 52 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Pierwsza z dwóch książek dotyczących francuskiej broni pancernej w latach drugiej wojny światowej. W niniejszym tytule Autor dokonuje przeglądu czołgów piechoty i czołgów uderzeniowych, które stawiły czoła niemieckiemu Blitzkriegowi roku 1940. Wiele spośród francuskich czołgów miało zastąpić pamiętające lata Wielkiej Wojny wozy Renault FT, a rozmaite prace projektowe prowadzone w okresie międzywojennym doprowadziły do powstania nowych konstrukcji czołgów piechoty takich jak Renault R35 i R40, FCM 36 czy też Hotchkiss H35 oraz H39. Równocześnie trwały prace nad...

Defense of Japan 1945
ISBN: 9781846036873 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In 1945, with her fleet destroyed and her armies beaten, the only thing that stood between Japan and an Allied invasion was the numerous coastal defence positions that surrounded the islands. This is the first book to take a detailed look at the Japanese home island fortifications that were constructed during 1941-45. Utilizing diagrams, specially commissioned artwork, and sources previously unavailable in English, Steven Zaloga examines these defences in the context of a possible Allied invasion, constructing various arguments for one of the greatest 'what if' scenarios of World War II, and...

M10 Tank Destroyer Vs StuG III Assault Gun: Germany 1944
ISBN: 9781780960999 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Although tanks like the Sherman and Panther captured the headlines, the Allies' M10 tank destroyer and the Germans' Sturmgeschutz (StuG) III were the unsung workhorses of the northwest European battlefields of 1944-45. While their mission was not principally fighting one another, their widespread use ensured their frequent encounters, from the Normandy bocage to the rubble-strewn streets of Aachen. The StuG III was the quintessential assault gun: a low-slung, heavily armored, turretless vehicle intended to provide direct-fire support for infantry formations. It was a jack of all...

One of the most sophisticated armoured fighting vehicles in the world, the M2/M3 Bradley is the United States equivalent of the British Warrior, combining the role of personnel carrier with the formidable armament of a 25mm cannon and TOW anti-tank missiles. With a maximum road speed of 66kmh it also has a degree of manoeuvrability dreamed of by other armoured vehicles. In this book Steven Zaloga examines the different variants of the Bradley in detail and looks at the changing tactical requirements of the US Army for an armoured personnel carrier.

Brittany 1944: Hitler's Final Defenses in France
ISBN: 9781472827371 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. One of the prime objectives for the Allies following the D-Day landings was the capture of sufficient ports to supply their armies. The original Overlord plans assumed that ports along the Breton coast would be essential to expansion of the Normandy beach-head. This included the major ports at Brest and on Quiberon Bay. The newly arrived Third US Army (TUSA) under Lt. Gen. George S. Patton was delegated to take on the Brittany mission. In one of the most rapid mechanized advances of the war, TUSA had the ports of Avranches and Quiberon encircled by the second week of August...

T-34/76 Medium Tank 1941-45
ISBN: 9781855323827 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The T-34 was the most influential tank design of World War 2. When first introduced into combat in the summer of 1941, it represented a revolutionary leap forward in tank design. Its firepower, armour protection and mobility were superior to that of any other medium tank of the period. This superiority did not last long. While the T-34 underwent a series of incremental improvements during 1943, it was being surpassed by new German tank designs, most notably the Panther. This title traces the life of the original T-34 through all its difficulties to eventual success.

Operation Cobra 1944: Breakout from Normandy
ISBN: 9781841762968 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. One of the most decisive months of World War II (1939-1945) was the 30 days between 25 July and 25 August 1944. After the success of the D-Day landings, the Allied forces found themselves bogged down in a bloody stalemate in Normandy. On 25 July General Bradley launched Operation Cobra to break the deadlock. US forces punched a hole in the German frontline and began a spectacular advance. As Patton's Third Army poured into Brittany and raced south to the Loire, the German army was threatened with encirclement. By the end of August German forces in Normandy were utterly destroyed, and the...

Liberation of Paris 1944: Patton's Race for the Seine
ISBN: 9781846032462 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In July 1944 of World War II (1939-1945), Operation Cobra broke the stalemate in Normandy and sent the Allies racing across France. The Allied commanders ignored Paris in their planning for this campaign, considering that the risk of intense street fighting and heavy casualties outweighed the city's strategic importance. However, Charles de Gaulle persuaded the Allied commanders to take direct action to liberate his nation's capital. Steven J Zaloga first describes the operations of Patton's Third Army as it advanced towards Paris before focusing on the actions of the Resistance...

Spanish Civil War Tanks: The Proving Ground for Blitzkrieg
ISBN: 9781846035128 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The tanks used during the Spanish Civil War are not often examined in any great detail, and are often labeled as little more than test vehicles in a convenient proving ground before World War II. But, with groundbreaking research, armor expert Steven J Zaloga has taken a fresh look at the tanks deployed in Spain, examining how future tanks and armored tactics were shaped and honed by the crews' experiences, and how Germany was able to benefit from these lessons while their Soviet opponents were not. Based on recently uncovered records of Soviet tankers in Spain and rare archival...
