Dornier Do 335

Often described as brutal yet innovative in design, the massive 'push-pull' Dornier Do 335 all-weather heavy fighter was symbolic of late war German aircraft design--an extraordinary aircraft which could have been deadly in combat but ultimately arrived too late to prove itself. Maybe because of its unrealized potential, the '335' has held a special fascination for aviation enthusiasts, historians and modelers ever since its existence became public knowledge.

The authors have now fully revised, updated and significantly expanded their work (by approximately 80 pages) incorporating, in particular, over 150 additional rare photographs, diagrams and new material about the development, construction and flying of the '335' and the little-known projects and concepts it spawned.

Backed up by superb color profile artwork and detailed line drawings, this book represents the finest research on this enigmatic aircraft.

Adesea descris ca brutal, dar inovator in ceea ce priveste designul, luptatorul masiv „push-pull” Dornier Do 335 pentru toate vremurile era simbolic al designului avioanelor germane de razboi tarziu - un avion extraordinar care ar fi putut fi mortal in lupta, dar in cele din urma a ajuns prea tarziu dovedi-se. Poate din cauza potentialului sau nerealizat, „335” a pastrat o fascinatie speciala pentru pasionatii de aviatie, istorici si modelatori de cand existenta sa a devenit publica. Autorii si-au revizuit complet, au actualizat si si-au extins semnificativ activitatea (cu aproximativ 80 de pagini) incorporand, in special, peste 150 de fotografii rare rare, diagrame si material nou despre dezvoltarea, constructia si zborul „335” si proiectele si conceptele putin cunoscute pe care le-a dat nastere. Sustinute de imagini superbe de profil color si desene detaliate, aceasta carte reprezinta cele mai bune cercetari pe acest enigmatic avion.
