How the Jagdflieger challenged the might of the USAAF in their heavily armed, and armoured, Fw 190A-8 Sturmjäger.
Developed from one of the finest fighters of World War II, the radial-engined Fw 190A-8 was conceived as a heavy assault aircraft and armed accordingly. Its mission was to provide a response to the increasing numbers of USAAF B-17 and B-24 bombers operating against targets in the western and central Reich.
This book explores the fascinating feats of the men flying the Fw 190A-8 and its subvariants. These pilots were given exceptional training and many were volunteers, some of whom were willing to sign oaths that they would bring down a bomber at all costs - even if it meant ramming the enemy aircraft.
Using first-hand accounts, archival photos, full-colour illustrations, maps and tactical diagrams, critically acclaimed Luftwaffe author Robert Forsyth puts the reader in the cockpit of a Sturmjäger attempting to defend the Fatherland from formations of heavily defended USAAF bombers protected by powerful Allied escort fighters.
