Order of Battle: German Luftwaffe in World War II illustrates the strengths and organizational structures of the Third Reich’s Air Force, building into a detailed compendium of information. Broken down by key battles and campaigns within each theatre of war, this highly illustrated book includes reference tables providing squadron strengths while diagrams show the types and numbers of aircraft employed in specific operations. With full-colour campaign maps, this makes an essential reference for any enthusiast.
