Hi, I am looking for books on military equipment in ww2. more specifically In looking for books that go into detail on aircraft that was designed but never used or only saw limited use in the last days of the war. things like the Wunderwaffe, helicopters and jet aircraft.
also I was looking for some books about just general military equipment in ww2 the ships, aircraft, land equipment I would love books on any of it from all sides. and finally If there were any books on the structures of the armed forces on all levels (platoon, company all the way to division and above). thank you.
(PS i hope a submission like this is allowed if not i'm sorry)
You should make your title more specific so that it is clear that WW2 military equipment, or even just "nonfiction," is what you are looking for. I clicked on this because I like giving book recommendations but WW2 is not really my era of choice. If you want to get the military history buffs to click on your link, you need to catch their interest.
Have you perused our book list?
German Military Equipment WW2 (Vol 1) by R.M. Clark- Really good book for military equipment, including Tanks, Firearms, and most general use vehicles for the German Military.
Fighting Men of World War II Allied Forces: Uniforms, Equipment & Weapons by David Miller- One of a series of books that goes over every Allied military equipment, including military structure. Well done book.
Fighting Men of World War II: Vol.1, Axis Forces - Uniforms, Equipment, and Weapons by David miller. Same premise as above, just for the axis side.
Great Book of World War II Airplanes- A simple name, but has hundreds of pictures, stories, and detailed pictures for the most famous of the WW2 aircraft.
Germany's Secret Weapons of World War II by Roger Ford- Nothing in the book is really "secret", rather just very advanced, but nonetheless is very detailed and is a good start to what you're looking for.
The Truth About The Wunderwaffe by Igor Witkowski- I believe this is the book you're looking for.
