Jagdfliegerverbände 10/II

[Jochen Prien]

Gentlemen,

I would like to inform you, that - albeit again with a slight delay - Vol. 10/II of our Jagdfliegerverbände series has passed its final corrections and is now in production with a planned delivery date of first week of June 2008.

The Volume has 473 pages and covers the technical descriptions of the fighter aircraft that saw service in the home defense in 1943 - i.e. Bf 109 G-4, G-5, G-6 and Fw 190 A-5, A-6 and A-7 - a chapter on special armament for combat against the US 4-engined bombers, a short summary of W.T. control of the defensive operations over Germany and a brief section covering special painting and marking schemes of the day fighters of the home defense units in 1943.

Units dealt with in Vol. 10/II - including detailed claims- and loss-lists in the usual form - are JG 1 with Stab, I., II., III. and 11./JG 1, JG 3 with Stab, I., II., III. and IV./JG 3, I./JG 4, and JG 11 with Stab, I. and II. Gruppe, the rest of this unit to follow in Vol. 10/III. There are some 320 photos, 7 line drawings of a/c variants and 2 technical sketches showing details of the Bf 109 cabin and cockpit section.

I sincerely hope that you will be satisfied with what we have to offer.

Regards

Jochen Prien
