Synopsis
A highly illustrated study of aerial combat over the Channel in 1940-42 as the Battle of Britain abated, featuring two of World War II's most famous fighters--the Spitfire and the Bf 109., This is the account of machines of war pitted against each other and the combatants who operated them. Step onto the battlefield and immerse yourself in the experience of real historic combat. The aerial duel between Spitfire II/Vs and Bf 109Fs saw a reversal of roles for RAF Fighter Command and the Luftwaffe from the summer of 1940. Now it was the British fighter units that were on the offensive, charged with protecting vulnerable RAF bombers attacking targets in occupied Europe from marauding Luftwaffe fighters. Spitfire squadrons suffered terribly at the hands of the Luftwaffe's fighter force in 1941-42, when a modest number of Bf 109Fs stoutly defended military and industrial targets in France and the Low Countries from RAF medium bombers. By early 1942 the RAF was sending dozens of Spitfire V-equipped units over France in 'Circus', 'Ramrod' and 'Rhubarb' operations, which were opposed by just two Jagdgeschwader (JG 2 and JG 26) with only 150 serviceable fighters between them. Yet, these German units claimed four Spitfires destroyed for every Bf 109F lost in return. With stunning artwork and detailed analysis, this volume provides a pilot's view of the dramatic clashes between these legendary fighters. Book jacket., With stunning artwork and detailed analysis, this volume provides a pilot's view of the dramatic clashes between these two legendary fighters, as some of the most gifted and "big name" aces of World War II went head-to-head in the skies of Northwest Europe. As the Battle of Britain approached its conclusion, two new versions of the famous Spitfire and Messerschmitt Bf 109 arrived on the scene. The RAF could see that the Luftwaffe were stepping down their incursions into British airspace and went on to the offensive. The Spitfire Mark II, and increasingly the Mark V, would fly over the picturesque English Channel in fighter sweeps, or to escort vulnerable Blenheim bombers--waiting for them was the Bf 109F "Friedrich." Yet despite the reversal of offensive and defensive dispositions, and despite the Luftwaffe deploying the bulk of their fighter strength to the Eastern Front in 1941, the Jagdflieger were able to inflict severe losses on their RAF counterparts.
