Description: *** RARE and OUT OF PRINT*** Messerschmitt Me 264 Amerikabomber:The Luftwaffe's Lost Transatlantic BomberBy Robert Forsyth and Eddie J. Creek Hardcover: 128 Pages — Publisher: Classic Publications; 1st Edition (2007) In 1939, the German Air Ministry asked aircraft manufacturers for proposals for an "Amerikabomber," an ultra-long-range, four-engined aircraft capable of attacking the United States from airfields in Germany. Projects were tendered by Junkers, Focke-Wulf, and Messerschmitt. The latter proposed the Me 264 and Messerschmitt’s personal influence was such that he was not only allowed to go ahead with the design, but was also given an immediate order for three aircraft. Using original German documentation and rare photographs, this book details the story of the remarkable Amerikabomber projects. Aircraft types featured in the book include the Me 264, the Ta 400, Fw 238, Ju 390 and the jet-powered Ho XVIII B flying wing. The book also examines the reality behind the myth associated with Germany’s atomic bomb carrier. Please note: All books are shipped USPS Media Mail within the U.S.A. Other forms of postage are prohibitively expensive and will be used only at buyer's request. Shipment to countries outside the U.S.A. will be sent First Class International Mail unless the package weighs more than 4 lbs. which will require a higher cost form of shipment. Again, other forms of international postage will only be used at the buyer's request because of high cost. Condition: LIKE NEW. A brand new unread book with very minor wear to dust jacket.
