Reviews

[Bill V · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is a must read (or at least must have) for any serious follower of the conflict between Japan and the Allies. The book is not designed to be read as a narrative. It is more of a reference work and a complete one at that.

[Sleepy Boy · Rating 5 out of 5]

THE gold standard for WWII Japanese aircraft reference. As another review pointed out, not a narrative, but the perfect book for studying/learning of particular Japanese aircraft. It's size is perfect for on the go study at museums, scale modeling events, etc

[Justin · Rating 4 out of 5]

It is not without its errors, but this is the best single-volume reference work on Japanese aircraft from the Asia-Pacific War in the English language.

[Oleksij Bunyk · Rating 5 out of 5]

Probably the most complete guide to Japanese planes.
All planes have complete technical characteristics, history of development and schemes.

Also, really great pictures.
