What weapons made the Nazis seemingly invincible? From fighter planes to guns and ships, this compendium explores the most important weaponry and equipment used by the German armed services in World War II--including the Wehrmacht, Waffen SS, Luftwaffe, and Navy. There's a full-color side-profile artwork for each featured item, accompanied by summaries of its development and service history, and with a full specifications table.
A highly illustrated and accessible account of tank warfare through history and around the world. Explore the development of tank warfare, from its first significant use at Cambrai during World War I to major tank battles of World War II, the Indo-Pakistan War, the Arab-Israeli Wars, the Iran-Iraq War, and the Allied invasions of Iraq. Each of the specially commissioned maps highlights a particular aspect of combat, so they vary in shape and size—from isometric to semi-circular and full-page to double-spread—and in outlook, with some maps giving a global perspective while others take a narrow focus. Major battles such as Villers-Bretonneux, Amiens, Kursk, and the Golan Heights are shown in great detail, and all the maps include a key to help readers to understand the events. With extensively researched text telling the stories behind these conflicts concisely and clearly, the History of Tank Warfare is an invaluable reference. Reissue of Atlas of Tank Warfare
