Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
With the publication of this, the last of 20 titles, Classic Publications' acclaimed Jagdwaffe series reaches its conclusion. The final book in the series could also be considered one of the most interesting as it examines the various types of advanced aircraft with which the Luftwaffe desperately tried to challenge what, by then, was overwhelming Allied air supremacy in the skies over the Reich. Whilst each book in the series can be enjoyed on its own, together the Jagdwaffe collection offers a very authoritative and detailed study of the camouflage and markings of Luftwaffe fighter units, in all theatres, throughout World War Two.

Rated by buyers -
The Luftwaffe Colours series wraps up with this stand-alone volume on the major jet and rocket fighters developed by Germany in the Second World War.
The authors, J. Richard Smith and Eddie Creek, had done an excellent job tracing the development and operational use of Messerschmitt's lethal Me 163 and 262 aircraft. While both aircraft had great potential, each aircraft had problems in development; the Me 163 in particular was an inherently dangerous aircraft due to the fuel it used. Though each aircraft achieved some success, the effect they had on the air war was minimal.
As with other volumes in the series, the book is a combination of narrative, including first-hand accounts of flights and combats, dozens of photos including rare colour shots and over 20 colour profiles by Creek and Tom Tullis.
Very nicely done!
