Produktinformationen zu „Foreign Planes in the Service of the Luftwaffe (ePub)“

This pictorial history shows the full extent of captured foreign aircraft used by Nazi Germany during WWII.

No air force in the Second World War would make more use of captured planes than the Luftwaffe. With this in mind, military historian Jean-Louis Roba has tracked down hundreds of such aircraft with rare images that illustrate their uses, careers, and eventual fates. Foreign Planes in the Service of the Luftwaffe covers the complete history of this practice from its inception in the prewar years to the end of the Second World War.

Roba's significant research on the topic debunks myths about how prepared for war the Germans were in 1939. This volume demonstrates how important captured planes-a decidedly unreliable resource-would become to the Luftwaffe. Translated into English for the first time, Roba's investigative work is supported by more than a hundred pictures of the planes themselves, and gives a rare opportunity to see British and American planes repainted in German colors and symbols.

Autoren-Porträt von Jean-Louis Roba

Born in Belgium in 1953, Jean-Louis Roba has a degree in law. Interested in history at an early age, he has met hundreds of Second World War veterans and amassed a large collection of personal accounts, documents and photographs. His numerous visits to archives worldwide have facilitated the writing of some 80 books on this period, mainly related to the war in the air. However, his interest is mainly focused on subjects that are not well known or rarely studied, such as the service history of the Me 323 transport aircraft, the history of JG 53, Beute or captured aircraft in Luftwaffe service and various studies of Belgian pilots in the RAF during the Second World War. He contributed several volumes to the ground-breaking "Luftwaffe in Colour" Casemate series. Neglected theatres of war are also one of his favourite subjects - he has compiled books on the Germans in the Aegean, the air battles over Romania and a multi-volume history of Luftwaffe seaplanes. In addition to these books, Jean-Louis Roba continues to publish articles in specialist journals.
