Product Description

--The German Air Force has instructed aircraft design and manufacturing companies to develop nightfighters to intercept bombers in order to counter the increasingly fierce nighttime bombing of the Allied Forces since mid-WWII.
--There is an item in the design requirements to minimize the use of strategic substances, so-called metals, and the Focke-Wulf tank engineer who responded to this is a design proposal in which more than half of the airframe structure is made of wood, similar to the British mosquito. Is submitted and adopted by the Air Force as Ta154.
――The landing gear was a front wheel type, equipped with a powerful gun, the maximum speed was 600 km / h or more, and the improved type approached 700 km / h, which was an ambitious design, but there was a shortage of assembly materials. Sometime I couldn't make the desired production plan, and the plan was cancelled.
――This issue features this unlucky night fighter for the first time in Japan.
――In particular, we are trying to thoroughly explain the on-board radar, which is the key to the night battle of this aircraft.
――In addition, there are plenty of readable articles such as development and production, evaluation and unit deployment, explanations of each type, and special attack machines.
--Color 8 pages, monochrome 72 pages, 80 pages in total
