The speculation about what the German Air Force (Luftwaffe) might have achieved if World War II had continued into 1946 is a fascinating and rapidly growing field of interest. This book develops some of this intriguing speculation with extensive, believable, illustrations of aircraft that never flew, from the mid thirties until the end of WWII.

• Exceptional reference tool for modelers The Messerschmitt Me 262, the world’s first jet-powered aircraft, first took to the air in April 1941. Engine problems marred early attempts to certify the craft battle worthy and it wasn’t until the spring of 1944 that it took to the skies with the Luftwaffe. The aircraft proved to be a deadly enemy, claiming over 500 victims. In this volume Marek Murawski and Marek Ryś examine the mighty Me 262 in all its formidable glory. Split into three major parts the book covers the production of the aircraft, the combat techniques employed by the Luftwaffe and the Messerschmitt Me 262 painting schemes. Included are numerous color photographs and a variety of 3D drawings and profiles.

Junkers Ju 88: Volume 1 (Monographs 3D Edition)

After the start of the production of the first production version Ju 88 A-1 two subsequent versions, based on the same airframe were developed. The first of them was the Junkers Ju 88 A-2, designated, as its predecessor, as Horizontal- und Sturzbomber (horizontal and dive bomber), powered by new Junkers Jumo G-1 engines, differing from the Junkers Jumo 211 B and D engines in having strengthened block structure. The maximum take-off power of the G-1 version was 1,200 hp at 2,400 RPM. The Ju 88A-2 was the first variant adapted for use of Walter Starthilfe 109-500 A-1 take-off rocket boosters. These boosters were designed in late 1930s to facilitate the takeoff of bomber aircraft carrying maximum bomb load. They were liquid-fuel devices rated at maximum thrust of 500 kG and with the burn time of around 30 seconds. The Luftwaffe personnel quickly dubbed it Kraftei (power egg). Indeed the takeoff booster resembled an egg, had oval shape flattened in the forward section housing the parachute deploying automatically after the booster's burnout and jettisoning from underwing mounts. The engine was 1.42 m long and its diameter in the widest place was 0.68 m. The rocket boosters were safe in operation, and assisted more than 3,000 documented takeoffs without any serious accidents.
