About the author

Claes Sundin is an illustrator and author born in 1957 and living in the southern part of Sweden. After finishing four years of studies at the University of Uppsala, he has been active as a teacher, marketer, photographer and art director, among other things.

Since childhood, Claes has nourished a strong interest in everything concerning aeronautics, particularly when it comes to fighter aircraft of the Second World War and later. This interest stems from the time when he, as a boy of only seven, started collecting and building plastic scale models of these aircraft. Simultaneously, he has been an ardent draftsman, making sketches of aircraft for as long as he can remember.

At present, Claes is writing articles, lecturing, and working on several new book projects. Up to now he has produced over two thousand profiles, mostly of aircraft, but also of other Second World War hardware.
