Throughout the Second World War, the Luftwaffe demanded faster fighters with improved altitude performance and light bombers able to outpace interceptors. Germany's airframe and aero engine manufacturers used every tool at their disposal to meet those requirements - lowered cockpits, longer wings, stretched fuselages, pusher props, bigger engines, exhaust gas turbochargers, multi-stage superchargers, intercoolers supplemental turbojets and more.
In this second volume of Luftwaffe Secret Project Profiles, renowned profiles artist Daniel Uhr and German WW2 aircraft development specialist Dan Sharp present 150 new artworks representing dozens of secret projects for piston engine fighters and fast bombers - including a multitude of proposed high-altitude types, heavily armed destroyers, asymmetrical oddities, experimental types, interceptors and mixed propulsion high-performance fighters.
