Jagdgeschwader 3 may not have the same immediate resonance as some of the more famous Luftwaffe fighter units, such Jagdgeschwader 2 'Richthofen', but it is arguably the archetypal German fighter formation of World War 2. This title deals with this war.

From mid-1942 until the end of the war, German fighter pilots were deployed in the defence of the homeland in an effort to halt the near-constant bombing raids by Britain and America. This book tells their story, from the moment when the Luftwaffe began to retreat to the dying days of the Reich.

The most versatile German aircraft of World War II, the Junkers Ju 88 served as a fighter, bomber and patrol aircraft on every front. This volume is the first of three to cover the Ju 88's extensive service record and includes 1/96 scale drawings and archival photographs.

Jagdgeschwader 52 was the most successful and highest-scoring fighter unit, not just in Germany's Luftwaffe, but in the entire annals of aviation history. This text provides a full combat history of the JG 52 and its members, including the three top-scoring aces of all time, who claimed a total of 900 victories between them.
