The MS.406 was an important aircraft not only because it was built in larger numbers than any other French fighter of the period, but also because it was the first modern fighter in the Armee de l'Air inventory. This book deals with this aircraft.

The Dutch DXXIs saw less than a week of action following the German invasion of the west on 10 May 1940, with many of the country's 28 fighters being destroyed on the ground. However, those that survived the initial onslaught inflicted losses on the Luftwaffe. By then, however, the DXXI had found fame in Finland during the Winter War of 1939-40.

Although designed and built for the US Navy, the F2A fought in only one major US engagement, the battle of Midway, in which F2A pilots managed to shoot down a number of Japanese fighters. Soon replaced by the navy, the F2A was exported to Britain, where it was nicknamed the 'Buffalo' thanks to its stubby appearance.

In the AIRCRAFT OF THE ACES series, an illustrated aviation history of the Finnish fighter pilots in the Second World War. It includes information on tactics, tables of the units involved and interviews with some of the pilots themselves.
