Messerschmitt Bf 109E Units in the Battle of Britain Part TWO JG27, JG51, JG52. Wing Leader Photo Archive Number 4
26,80 €This book is the second of three in our Wingleader Photo Archive series devoted to Bf 109 Units in the Battle of Britain. It covers JG27, JG51 and JG52. This is a project that we were actually working on some years ago but which stalled through the lack of decent photographs. With the launch of our new Wingleader series, we saw a way of revitalising the project using all the profiles that had been prepared, and introducing a lot of newly discovered 109 photos.
The aim of this book is to help the reader identify and understand the various styles of camouflage and markings used by the Bf 109 units during the Battle. Some had large numerals, some small, some had heavily mottled sides, others pale blue. Some had emblems and some carried both the Gruppe and Staffel emblems at the same time.
Approx 120 photos and 39 full colour profiles. -

Supermarine Spitfire Mk I In RAF Service 1936 to the Battle of Britain. Wingleader Photo Archive Number 1
27,50 €For quite a few years, Simon Parry and Mark Postlethwaite have been building up a huge library of original WWII aviation photos, partly as a hobby but mainly to help provide photos for the books that they publish. With over 30,000 now in the collection, they realised that they had more than enough to produce a series of photo books on individual aircraft types and sub-types. They set out to make the series as ideally suited to modellers and artists as possible, so large photos, using A4 landscape format, and minimal text except for extended captions. Effectively their aim is to produce a 21st Century version of the Profile Publications series of books from the 1960s, using the latest technology to reproduce their wartime photos to the highest standard possible.
This series is unique in that it will be able to provide large format ORIGINAL photos up to full A4 landscape format width, which is at least 50% larger than any standard book can deliver. Combined with the specialist knowledge of a team of historians and contributors, each book should provide unbeatable and accurate references for any modelling or painting project.
133 b/w pictures (33 of them show details), 2 color pictures, 24 color profiles. -
Tankograd Militärfahrzeug Spezial 5090: DACHS Der Pionierpanzer 2 in der Bundeswehr
14,95 €After the failure of the project to develop the Armoured Engineer Machine and to close the existing equipment gap in the Bundeswehr’s Engineer Corps, a solution was sought and found in the Pionierpanzer 2A0 Dachs AEV. The first of its kind was handed over in 1989. The early 2000s saw new equipment introduced and led to the new storage concept (Neues Verstaukonzept, or NVK) and from 2006 the new Pionierpanzer 2A0 NVK Dachs was fielded. Up till March 2021 a total of eleven Dachs armoured engineer vehicles were equipped with the Command and Weapon Engagement System Land-Based Operations (FUEWES LBO) and designated Pionierpanzer 2A0A2 FUEWES LBO Dachs.
This publication shows the three Dachs (badger) variants in action and takes a highly detailed look at their vehicle technology and specialised engineer equipment.
Illustrated throughout with 149 colour photographs, 6 b/w photos, 12 graphics and one five-perspective 1/35 scale drawing. -
