Bombers and Bombing Raids 1942-45 DVD

Bombers and Bombing Raids 1942-45 DVD The heavy losses in Russia and the growing effectiveness of allied air power was having a dire impact on the ability of the German bomber force to carry out its role. In 1943, when the Luftwaffe once more launched night bomber raids against the UK, the effectiveness of the night flyer defence led to very high losses. The decline of the Luftwaffe bombing arm is covered in the operations of the varied aircraft types employed, down to Germany's surrender in May, 1945. Also shown are flying boats and float planes, seen operating from the Mediterranean through to the Arctic Ocean.
