Review: Very Nice Guide on Japanese WWII Planes - A handy well-researched guide for any WWII or aviation buff. Lots of nice illustrations and a very comprehensive chart of all types of Japanese aircraft at the back. Highly recommend.
Review: Great survey book of Japanese WW2 planes. - This is a great overview of the major japanese planes used 1937-1945 and some interesting prototype jet and rocket planes. The book is all in colour and the pictures of the planes are excellent. Included is a useful table of US codenames vs Japanese names ie. Betty = G4M. A surprise was a full summary of production numbers for each model variant as well as an explanation of how the JAAF and JNAF derived their plane name codes, and X-ray drawings of several major type planes. There are pictures for most subtypes but strangely we get six Ki-61-I but no N1K1-J picture, also some subtype pictures are named wrongly (blame the printers?). The information about the planes is often very superficial and not up to date. For example Raiden J2M is not explained as been a curtailed production type as many were lost to unexplained crashes and uncontrolled vibation problems. But it does have pages on G3M Nell, B7A Grace, Ki-51 Sonia and alot on Ki-49 Helen that are often negelected by other books. A second edition of this book with a few more pics of the important subtypes (named correctly) could become a must have. Nevertherless this is a beautiful book and definately worth the price.
