About this product

Product Information

One of the fundamental aviation debates, during the 1930s, concerned the need for an aircraft that could provide a long-range escort. Governments and manufacturers believed that the next war would be largely conducted in the air with heavy bombers flying over enemy territory. They would release bombs that would destroy land forces and strategic sites before an invading army had the chance to mobilize. It was generally assumed that this long-range escort would be a twin-engined, two-seater aircraft that would accompany the bombers and protect them from interceptions. With the exception of Britain most countries equipped themselves with such machines. The Luftwaffe was among the first with this type of aircraft, which they called the Zerstoerer (destroyer), as the Bavarian aircraft manufacturer, later to become Messerschmitt, had developed a prototype Bf 110 that first flew on May 12th, 1936. Although under-powered, with two 730hp Jumo 210Ga engines, the first production version was supplied in July 1938. Despite this initial lack of engine power the heavily armed Bf 110 proved to be the progenitor of an outstanding warplane. The inability to dogfight in combat with highly maneuverable fighter aircraft put the Bf 110 at a grave disadvantage and although it was used in most theatres of German operations it rarely appeared over Britain after September 1940. However, the Messerschmitt Bf 110 came into its own when, equipped with radar, it became the supreme night-fighter aircraft and the preferred 'mount' of pilots such as Lent, Schnaufer and Wittgenstein.

I ordered over a half dozen of books from this seller and all were packed with amazing care - each wrapped in protective insulated envelopes and all sent well-cushioned in an oversized, sturdy box. The books were in better than described condition. I would recommend this seller as one of the best from whom I've ever ordered on eBay. But that's not all... as a gift for my large order, a free book was included. And it was a beautiful book!! Thank you and nice work!

  • Good Refrence on the BF 110

    Highs: A well organized and written history of this widely used multi role fighter-bomber and subsequent replacement aircraft. All models and variants are listed. Many actual in theater photos and color plates with one sided line drawings. Also has brief info on the pilots that flew this aircraft. Lows: The book could use a set of scale three view drawings for model builders refrence use. I bought the book to use in building plastic aircraft models, specifically the night fighter versions. I recommend this book to anyone seeking information on this aircraft and it is a good value for the money..
