Synopsis
"This book offers a well-written chronological history of the Luftwaffe NachtJagd units, pilots, and crew." -Historical Miniatures Gaming Society On 10 May 1940, the Wehrmacht launched its assault on the West. One element of the West's response was the dispatch of RAF Bomber Command 'heavy' bombers at night over German industrial centers. These raids had only limited effectiveness, but the inability of the Luftwaffe to chase down RAF bombers at night so annoyed Wolfgang Falck that it swiftly resulted in the creation of a credible night fighter force. Initial trials had been flown with Bf 110s at dusk in Denmark in April, and 1. Nachtjagd.Division was founded in the summer of 1940. Its first few months were chaotic, with constant reorganizations of units, and reassignment of aircraft, but soon enough the night fighter arm was achieving steady victories--and losing crews at a similarly steady rate. Despite the efforts of senior leadership, the Nachtjagd constantly struggled to secure sufficient personnel or aircraft, and would spend most of its life playing catch up--its radar systems regularly outdone by RAF Bomber Command's jamming capabilities, though the development of Schräge Musik and Wilde Sau did give the Nachtjagd an edge. The first specialist Luftwaffe night fighter--the Heinkel He 219--would be trialled only in 1943. Fully illustrated, this is a full chronological account of the night fighter units for the first part of World War II, covering major campaigns, the biographies of individual aces, and the details of the technology developed for the Nachtjagd., Founded in response to RAF bombing raids in 1940, the Nochtjagd was never adequately resourced but would eventually account for 60 percent of Bomber Command's nighttime losses. Illustrated with photographs and artwork, this chronological account covers the missions and aircraft of the Luftwaffe night fighters between its creation and mid-1943. The Casemate Illustrated series explores key elements of military history. Extensively illustrated with photographs, maps, and color profiles of tanks, aircraft, and other vehicles, each volume provides a wealth of visual detail. Profiles of key individuals and units, a timeline and explanatory text boxes support the narrative, which provides a clear overview of the battle or campaign and the experience of the forces involved., Fully illustrated chronological account of Luftwaffe night fighter aces in the first half of World War II.
