Ali Straniere in Italia - Messerschmitt Bf.109 #1
With a worsening supply situation and in need of canon equipped fighters to counter
the growing menace of American four-engine heavies, the Regia Aeronautica placed
sizeable orders for the Bf.109G as a stop gap until enough Series 5 aircraft could
be manufactured. These aircraft were flung against American fighter and bomber
squadrons in the last dramatic phases of the war.

Ali Straniere in Italia - Ju.87 'Picchiatelli' #2
No other country outside of Germany has gained as much notoriety in the use of this
aircraft as did the Italians. Seeing that the number of Ju87s avaiable could not
reach the prescribed numbers needed to put into effect the tactics of the Luftwaffe,
the Italians developed the skip bombing technique well before its use in the Pacific war.
This book covers the full history of this well known German dive bomber in use by
the Regia Aeronautica. The book consists of 72 pages with 16 very attractive color
profiles by Marco Gueli, some 70+ photograhps (many of which never seen before) and
a very comprehensive text by Fabrizio Becchetti. Constructional details are
illustrated as found in the original Instruction Manual. The text is bilingual (italian-english).
