World War II Aircraft Fighters HandbookYou can download application without adshereThe Handbook of aircraft of World War II includes alltheaircraft (except Heavy fighters and Jet- and rocket-propelledfighters) used by those countries which were at war duringWorldWar II from the period between their joining the conflict andtheconflict ending for them.A fighter aircraft is a military aircraft designed primarilyforair-to-air combat against other aircraft, as opposed to bombersandattack aircraft, whose main mission is to attack groundtargets.The hallmarks of a fighter are its speed, maneuverability,andsmall size relative to other combat aircraft.Many fighters have secondary ground-attack capabilities, andsomeare designed as dual-purpose fighter-bombers (like aP-47Thunderbolt or Fairey Fox). Often, aircraft that do not fulfillthestandard definition are called fighters. This may be forpoliticalor national security reasons, for advertising purposes orotherreasons.A fighter's main purpose is to establish air superiority overabattlefield. Since World War I, achieving and maintainingairsuperiority has been essential for victory in conventionalwarfare.The success or failure of a belligerent's efforts to gainairsupremacy hinges on several factors including the skill ofitspilots, the tactical soundness of its doctrine for deployingitsfighters and the numbers and performance of those fighters.Becauseof the importance of air superiority, since the dawn ofaerialcombat armed forces have constantly competed todeveloptechnologically superior fighters and to deploy thesefighters ingreater numbers, and fielding a viable fighter fleetconsumes asubstantial proportion of the defense budgets of modernarmedforces.The Second World War featured fighter combat on a larger scalethanany other conflict to date. German Field Marshal Erwin Rommelnotedthe effect of airpower: "Anyone who has to fight, even withthemost modern weapons, against an enemy in complete command oftheair, fights like a savage against modern European troops, underthesame handicaps and with the same chances of success."Throughoutthe conflict, fighters performed their conventional roleinestablishing air superiority through combat with other fightersandthrough bomber interception, and many fighters were alsopressedinto service in additional roles such as tactical airsupport andreconnaissance.he approach of different belligerents to fighter designvariedwidely, with the Japanese and Italians favoring lightly armedandarmored but highly maneuverable designs such as theJapaneseNakajima Ki-27, Nakajima Ki-43 and Mitsubishi A6M Zero.Handbook including:Biplane fighter aircrafts:Avia B-534Avia BH-33A.W.35 ScimitarBoeing P-12Type 105 Bristol BulldogFairey Firefly IIFairey FoxFiat CR.32Fiat CR.42Gloster GauntletGloster Sea GladiatorGrumman FFGrumman F3FHawker DemonHawker FuryHawker NimrodHeinkel He 51He 51W seaplaneKawasaki Ki-10Monoplane fighter aircrafts:Bell P-39 AiracobraBell P-63 KingcobraBoeing P-26 PeashooterBrewster F2A BuffaloCurtiss P-36 HawkCAC BoomerangCaudron C.714Curtiss P-40 WarhawkCurtiss-Wright CW-21Dewoitine D.500Fiat G.50Fiat G.55Focke-Wulf Fw 190Focke-Wulf Ta 152Grumman F6F HellcatGrumman F8F BearcatHawker HurricaneHawker TyphoonTempestHeinkel He 112IAR 80Ikarus IK-2Kawanishi N1KKawasaki Ki-61Kawasaki Ki-100Macchi C.200Macchi C.202 FolgoreMacchi C.205 VeltroMesserschmitt Bf 109Mitsubishi A5MMitsubishi A6M ZeroNakajima Ki-27Nakajima Ki-43North American P-51 MustangNorth American P-64PZL P.7Reggiane Re.2000Reggiane Re.2001Reggiane Re.2005Republic P-43 LancerRepublic P-47 ThunderboltRogozarski IK-3Supermarine SpitfireVought F4U CorsairVultee P-66 VanguardYakovlev Yak-7You can save every image to SD card or set as wallpaper

It was themostwidespread warin history, and directly involved more than100million people fromover 30 countries. In a state of "totalwar",the majorparticipants threw their entire economic,industrial,andscientific capabilities behind the war effort,erasingthedistinction between civilian and military resources.Marked bymassdeaths of civilians, including the Holocaust(inwhichapproximately 11 million people were killed) andthestrategicbombing of industrial and population centres(inwhichapproximately one million were killed, and whichincludedtheatomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki), it resultedinanestimated 50 million to 85 million fatalities.

World War II Heavy Fighters 2.7
World War II Aircraft Heavy Fighters HandbookThe Handbook of Fighters aircraft of World War II includesalltheHeavy Fighters aircraft used by those countries which wereatwarduring World War II from the period between theirjoiningtheconflict and the conflict ending for them.A heavy fighter isa fighteraircraft designedto carry heavier weapons oroperate atlonger ranges. To achieveacceptable performance, mostheavyfighters were twin-engined, andmany had multi-placecrews.The twin-engine heavy fighter was a major design classduringthepre-World War II period.Conceivedaslong-range escort fighters,orheavily-armed bomberdestroyers, heavy fighters largelyfailedin their intended rolesduring World War II, as theycould notoutmaneuver the moreconventional, single-engined fighters.Manytwin-engined heavyfighters eventually found theirnicheas night fighters, withconsiderable successes.Onlythe Northrop P-61 BlackWidow ofthe USAAF wasever built from the start,during the WorldWar II era, solely to bea night fighter.A major heavy fighter design was the MesserschmittBf110,a German fighter that, prior tothewar,the Luftwaffe considered more importantthantheirsingle-engine fighters. Many of the best pilots wereassignedto Bf110 squadrons, and they werespecificallydesignatedasZerstцrer ("destroyer") units. Whileother,lighter,fighters were mainly intended for defense, thedestroyerswere theones mainly intended for offensivemissions: to escortbomberson missions at long range, then useits superior speed tooutrundefending fighters that would be capableof outmaneuveringit. Thisdoctrine proved to be a costlymistake. In practicethe Bf 110was only capable of using thiscombination of featuresfor a shorttime; it served well againstthe HawkerHurricane duringthe Battle of France, butwas easilyoutperformed bythe SupermarineSpitfire duringthe Battle ofBritain (also in termsof maximum speed).Eventually Bf 110swereconvertedto interceptors (especially nightfighters)andground-attack aircraft for rest of the war.During the late 1930s, BellAircraft ofthe UnitedStates designedthe YFM-1Airacuda "bomberdestroyer". Very large andheavily armed, theAiracuda was plaguedwith design flaws; only 13examples wereeventually built, none ofwhich participated inWWII.The most successful heavy fighter of the warwasthe LockheedP-38 Lightning. It was designed to carryheavyarmament at highspeed or long range. For a variety ofreasons,notably itsexcellenttwinGeneralElectric-designed turbochargers and its crewofone(rather than two or three), it dramatically outperformeditsGermanand British counterparts. In service it was used asanescortfighter, following B-17 Flying Fortress raidsdeepintoGerman-held Europe where it was able to hold its own withthemuchlighter German fighters. In its escort role, the P-38 wasthefirstAllied fighter over Berlin. It was also highly successfulinthePacific theatre, where its long range proved apivotaladvantage.Expensive to produce and maintain, it wasrelegated toother roleswhen the single-engined butequallylong-ranged P-51DMustang reached squadrons.Handbook including:Bell YFM-1 AiracudaBristol Type 156 BeaufighterBoulton Paul DefiantBlackburn B-25 RocBlackburn B-24 Skuade Havilland DH.98 MosquitoDornier Do 217Dornier Do 335 Pfeil ("Arrow")Douglas A-20/DB-7 HavocFairey FireflyFairey FulmarFocke-Wulf Ta 154 MoskitoGrumman F7F TigercatHeinkel He 219 Uhu ("Eagle-Owl")IMAM Ro.57Junkers Ju 88Junkers Ju 388 StortebekerKawasaki Ki-45 Toryu ("Dragon Slayer")Kawasaki Ki-102Lockheed P-38 LightningMesserschmitt Bf 110Messerschmitt Me 210Mitsubishi Ki-67 Hiryu ("Flying Dragon")Northrop P-61 Black WidowWestland WelkinWestland WhirlwindVickers Type 432Dornier Do 215Gloster F.9/37 aka Gloster G.39Lockheed XP-58 Chain Lightning
Biography of Adolf Hitler 1.0
Adolf Hitler (20 April 1889 – 30 April1945)was an Austrian-born German politician who was the leader oftheNazi Party (German: Nationalsozialistische DeutscheArbeiterpartei(NSDAP); National Socialist German Workers Party). HewasChancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945 and Führer ("leader")ofNazi Germany from 1934 to 1945. As effective dictator ofNaziGermany, Hitler was at the centre of World War II in Europe andtheHolocaust.Hitler was a decorated veteran of World War I. He joinedtheprecursor of the NSDAP, the German Workers' Party, in 1919andbecame leader of the NSDAP in 1921. In 1923 he attempted a coupinMunich to seize power. The failed coup resulted inHitler'simprisonment, during which time he wrote his autobiographyandpolitical manifesto Mein Kampf ("My Struggle"). After hisreleasein 1924, Hitler gained popular support by attacking theTreaty ofVersailles and promoting Pan-Germanism, anti-Semitism,andanti-communism with charismatic oratory and Nazi propaganda.Hitlerfrequently denounced international capitalism and communismasbeing part of a Jewish conspiracy.Hitler's Nazi Party became the largest elected party intheGerman Reichstag, leading to his appointment as chancellor in1933.Following fresh elections won by his coalition, theReichstagpassed the Enabling Act, which began the process oftransformingthe Weimar Republic into the Third Reich, asingle-partydictatorship based on the totalitarian and autocraticideology ofNational Socialism. Hitler aimed to eliminate Jews fromGermany andestablish a New Order to counter what he saw as theinjustice ofthe post-World War I international order dominated byBritain andFrance. His first six years in power resulted in rapideconomicrecovery from the Great Depression, the denunciationofrestrictions imposed on Germany after World War I, andtheannexation of territories that were home to millions ofethnicGermans—actions which gave him significant popularsupport.Hitler sought Lebensraum ("living space") for the Germanpeople.His aggressive foreign policy is considered to be theprimary causeof the outbreak of World War II in Europe. He directedlarge-scalerearmament and on 1 September 1939 invaded Poland,resulting inBritish and French declarations of war on Germany. InJune 1941,Hitler ordered an invasion of the Soviet Union. By theend of 1941German forces and the European Axis powers occupied mostof Europeand North Africa. Failure to defeat the Soviets and theentry ofthe United States into the war forced Germany onto thedefensiveand it suffered a series of escalating defeats. In thefinal daysof the war, during the Battle of Berlin in 1945, Hitlermarried hislong-time lover, Eva Braun. On 30 April 1945, less thantwo dayslater, the two committed suicide to avoid capture by theRed Army,and their corpses were burned.Under Hitler's leadership and racially motivated ideology,theNazi regime was responsible for the genocide of at least5.5million Jews and millions of other victims whom he andhisfollowers deemed Untermenschen ("sub-humans") andsociallyundesirable. Hitler and the Nazi regime were alsoresponsible forthe killing of an estimated 19.3 million civiliansand prisoners ofwar. In addition, 29 million soldiers and civiliansdied as aresult of military action in the European Theatre of WorldWar II.The number of civilians killed during the Second World Warwasunprecedented in warfare, and constitutes the deadliest conflictinhuman history.
