Reviews
"Fighting Hitler's Jet's is a text rich with historical insight, experiences of American as well as German pilots, and knowledge of aircraft and their designers not commonly found in other books. Dorr's  Fighting Hitler's Jets  is a  perfecta  which rewards the reader of history as well as of strategy." - Travel For Aircraft Blog (Seattle Post-Intelligencer)
Synopsis
Fighting Hitler's Jets brings together in a single, character-driven narrative two groups of men at war: on one side, American fighter pilots and others who battled the secret "wonder weapons" with which Adolf Hitler hoped to turn the tide; on the other, the German scientists, engineers, and pilots who created and used these machines of war on the cutting edge of technology. Written by Robert F. Dorr, renowned author of Zenith Press titles Hell Hawks , Mission to Berlin , and Mission to Tokyo , the story begins with a display of high-tech secret weapons arranged for Hitler at a time when Germany still had prospects of winning the war. It concludes with Berlin in rubble and the Allies seeking German technology in order to jumpstart their own jet-powered aviation programs. Along the way, Dorr expertly describes the battles in the sky over the Third Reich that made it possible for the Allies to mount the D-Day invasion and advance toward Berlin. Finally, the book addresses both facts and speculation about German weaponry and leaders, including conspiracy theorists' view that Hitler escaped in a secret aircraft at the war's end. Where history and controversy collide with riveting narrative, Fighting Hitler's Jets furthers a repertoire that comprises some of the United States' most exceptional military writing., Fighting Hitler's Jets is the personal story of the American fighter pilots who defeated the German Luftwaffe in the spring and summer of 1944, only to find themselves up against Adolf Hitler's Wunderwaffen , or "wonder weapons.", Fighting Hitler's Jets brings together in a single, character-driven narrative two groups of men at war: on one side, American fighter pilots and others who battled the secret "wonder weapons" with which Adolf Hitler hoped to turn the tide; on the other, the German scientists, engineers, and pilots who created and used these machines of war on the cutting edge of technology.

    This item was exactly as described. The box was in great condition and the parts inside were still sealed with plastic wrap. In fact, it looked almost absolutely new. After a quick inspection of the plastic parts, it appeared to be crisp in detail, as I had been unfamiliar with HobbyBoss. The price was very reasonable and it was packed very carefully, so no damage occurred during shipment. It was shipped fast and arrived very quickly. I would not hesitate to buy from this seller again.

    Item exactly as described at a reasonable price. Packaging was in factory shrink wrap which is a plus and overpacked very well. Shipping was quick and without issue. I needed these to finish off the kit I bought at a show. Thanks for being an upstanding and honest seller!

    Can’t say enough about this seller and their integrity! Initially received a different item than what I had ordered. I contacted the seller and, despite dealing with some personal stressors, their communication was excellent. They sent the correct item as soon as possible at no cost and also allowed me to keep the wrong product. I’ve never had a more positive experience with an eBay seller. Highly recommend!
