German Jets Versus the U.S. Army Air Force: Battle for the Skies over Europe

Description

Accounts of American air combat over Europe during WWII often leave readers with the impression the American P-51 Mustang and other U.S. fighters ruled the sky, and, in many instances that appeared to be the case. However, in the late summer of 1945, radical new jet-powered German fighters suddenly appeared, striking sheer panic in the hearts of Allied airmen and their commanders. Capable of speeds one hundred miles an hour faster than the best the Allies had to offer, these new weapons threatened to inflict unbearable losses on Allied Air formations. Author Hess, through first-hand interviews with German and American pilots and analysis of air combat reports, addresses this critical period in WWII air combat. He recounts the new jets' strengths and weaknesses, Allied encounter tactics, German blunders, and stories of the first ever prop vs jet air combat. Coverage includes Adolf Galland's jet units, the Me 163, 262, Arado 234, etc.
