Paperback. Condition: New. Laurier, Jim; Postlethwaite, Mark (illustrator). The Jagdgeschwader 400 group was formed for the sole purpose of flying one of the world's most revolutionary aircraft, the rocket-powered Me 163. Although the Me 163 scored relatively few kills, with a success rate much lower than the Me 262, it still had a massive psychological impact upon the Allies, and the technology and experiences gained in the Me 163 went on to influence the jet fighters of modern times. The introduction of jet-powered aircraft demanded massive changes in training, equipment, servicing and tactics, all of which are described and examined in this essential analysis of the story of the Me 163 in frontline service with Erprobungskommando 16 and Jagdgeschwader 400.

Condition: excellent condition. Following years of detailed research, this is the second volume in a two volume study of the Luftwaffe's legendary Messerschmitt Me 163 rocket-powered interceptor. The authors have unearthed fascinating and hitherto undiscovered documentary material together with previously unpublished photographs and have received cooperation from many former pilots who flew this radical and daunting aircraft in combat as well as from Allied pilots who encountered it. - Continuing the operational story of the rocket fighter, the book includes a detailed diary of point-defence combat operations conducted against the Allied air forces over Northern Europe in 1944-45 by Jagdgeschwader 400 using the Me 163. - Many Allied pilots reported seeing or encountering this 'bat-like' aircraft, but the authors set out to dispel many myths and prove that it was impossible for Me 163s to have been operating where Allied Intelligence said they were. - There is also a study of late-war training by the Ergänzungsstaffel/JG 400 and IV./EJG 2, and for the first time, the story of the little-known Italian involvement with the German rocket fighter. - The reader is also offered a detailed overview of Me 163-based design projects and planned swept-wing and ultra-high-speed development as well as the story of Allied, Japanese (the MXY8 Akikusa and J8M1 Shusui), French and Soviet testing, including rare photographs of the French-flown Me 163. - The text is enriched by superb colour artwork from acclaimed aviation artist Tom Tullis and detailed technical drawings by Arthur Bentley and Eddie Creek, ensuring that this work will undoubtedly be recognised as the standard reference work for years to come. - It is also an essential complement to Classic Publications' acclaimed study of the Messerschmitt Me 262 jet fighter. 220 p. many photos, some in color, maps, technical drawings 2 volumes hardcover with dust jacket, large format.
