The Perfect addition to the game .......2007-02-18
This book is without a doubt the perfect addition to the game that has entranced and enitced me for so long. Are ya stuck? Well this book get you out of it. And man was I stuck in a few places. Brady Games took a great game and made it a little more user friendly. Thanks Brady Games.
This is no Prima guide.......2006-01-05
I have to say the Prima Guide for Ace Combat 4 was far superior! Brady Games does a fairly good job overall, however, the Prima Guide was much more specific in regards to what you have to do to achieve the "S" rankings and unlocking everything on each level. My advice is pretty simple...Save your money, look the stuff up online and print it out. You'll be better off hearing what people have done, and the methods they use to get the highest rankings and how they unlocked everything.
Ace Combat 5 Strategy Guide.......2004-10-25
This strategy guide is so much more imformative than ace 4's was.This strategy guide list all 50 planes and special weapons.It even tells you which wing formation to pick for your wingmen and also how much each plane is once it is shot down.It also gives you pictures of the 4 characters you will be flying with and of course it has pictures of every level.In the secrets section it even tells you were the enemy painted planes are on each level after you finish so you can shoot it down and put it in your hanger.It also list all other bonuses too.This is a must have if you are playing ace combat 5.
Book Description
This exciting book tells the combat biographies of seven Luftwaffe aces: three day-fighter pilots, one night-fighter pilot, one close-support pilot, and two bomber pilots. This mix of well-known and less famous pilots includes Heinz Bor, who had 221 victories and was an ME 262 ace; Otto Kittel, the fourth-highest Luftwaffe ace with 267 kills; Heinz-Wolfgang Schnaufer, a leading night-fighter ace with 121 kills; Wilhelm Batz, whose two-year combat career ended with 237 kills in the elite JG 52; Otto Weiss, a close-support pilot in the Hs 123 and Hs 129; Joachim Helbig, who flew the Ju 88 bomber over Malta; and Ludwig Havighorst, who served first with the infantry and then the Luftwaffe, where he flew fifty bombing missions over Stalingrad.

not real history at all.......2005-07-20
...this work originally appeared in the German magazine "Der Landser" under the pen-name of Altmann and is one of Kurowski's more indifferent offerings..the writing style well fits the original 'comic' format. Kurowski is an extremely prolific author but his huge output leaves question-marks over the veracity of much of what he writes here, the rest of it is just sheer hyperbole..eg the lengthy scene wherein Heinz Bär receives a dressing down from Göring...some two pages of dialogue - yet the only two participants died long before Kurowski wrote this....there are no sources, no references, no bibliography...as far as I'm concerned this is pure 'novelisation' ..no other word for it
I also have big issues with the translation ..its a little too over the top..
Great book.......2005-01-30
There is a notable lack of detailed biographical info on many Luftwaffe pilots. Schnaufer and Kittel are legendary, while some like Weiss and Havighorst are less well-known, but deserving of attention. The information is interesting, well-written and would definitely be useful to anyone interested in the individual Luftwaffe members, most of whom do not have full biographies on them.
Not Just the History, but The Men Who Made History.......2004-11-09
This series of "Aces" books from Stackpole is both excellent and eye opening. Most of us who are interested in the history of World War II know the general stories. We know the broad pictures of what happened, when it happened and so on. What was missing, and I didn't even know it, was a sense of who were these men who fought so hard for so long for what most of us thing was a very bad cause.
This book tells the story of seven of the Luftwaffe Aces. Not just fighter pilots but people in all branches of the Luftwaffe: bombers, night fighters, ground support. These men (usually) had joined the Luftwaffe a few years before the war, and unless killed were still flying at the end of the war. They each completed hundreds, if not a thousand missions - not to degrade the 25-35 missions flown by the 8th air force crews.
These men were the best the Luftwaffe could put up. And good men they were. Frank Kurowski, the author of numerous books on World War II has put together a masterpiece.
Book Description
The Mosquito developed into one of the most versatile aircraft of World War 2, entering service with Fighter Command in early 1942. The 'Mossie' was soon defending raids on Britain's Cathedral cities and became an integral part of the country's night defences. Its airborne radar gave it the ability to 'see' the enemy at night, and its speed and devastating fire power made it the finest nightfighter deployed by any side during World War 2. This book examines the infamous Mosquito, the nightfighter that was used by many leading RAF, Commonwealth and American aces.

Tales of DeHavilland's Deadly Mosquito! .......2005-12-15
The exploits of the 50-odd aces who scored with the Mosquito fighter bomber are chronicled by author Andy Thomas in this Osprey Aircraft of the Aces volume.
Whether operating as a nightfighter, day intruder or Coastal Command strike aircraft, DeHavilland's elegant but lethal wooden wonder racked up kills over Ju 88s, Bf 110s, He 111s, V-1s, Ki-46s and assorted Axis aircraft in the ETO, Pacific and Mediterranean theaters. Thomas succintly covers these kills, scored by such Mossie aces as John Cunningham, Bob Kipp, Branse Burbridge, Roger Bannock, Bob Braham and others. Ten pages of color profiles by Chris Davey and dozens of photos of aircraft and crews complement the text.
As always, good value at a modest price. Recommended.
Will delight any avid scholar or WWII student.......2005-12-03
Andrew Thomas' Mosquito Aces Of World War II focuses on the all-wooden Mosquito aircraft, which entered service in early 1942 and was an effective fighter in Britain. It went on to counter the V-1 flying bombs in 1944 and made a name for itself with its ability to locate the enemy at night and develop hard blows with four cannons. Vintage black and white photos are packed throughout but it's the written history of the Mosquito and its 59 pilot fighters which is the meat of Mosquito Aces Of World War II, which will delight any avid scholar or WWII student.
Book Description
This book traces the combat history of the most famous and highest-scoring fighter group in France's World War I Aviation Militaire. Groupe de Combat 12 boasted the highest-scoring Allied fighter pilot, René Fonck, and France's most celebrated hero of the air, Georges Guynemer. Its ranks included numerous other famous aces, such as Rene's Dorme, Alfred Heurteaux, Albert Deullin, and American volunteers Edwin Parsons and Frank L. Baylies. Additionally, Guynemer was instrumental in developing France's premier series of fighter planes, the SPAD VII, XII, XIII and XVII.

The "Storks" - Plodding Detail but no Analysis.......2005-01-17
Although fighter combat in the First World War has received a great deal of attention, most of that attention has been reserved for German, Commonwealth and American aces. In Osprey's Aviation Elite Units #18, Jon Guttman provides an interesting look into France's premier fighter unit - Group de Combat 12, nicknamed "the Storks." GC12 was formed in the Spring of 1916 from existing French fighter squadrons and pre-dated the more-famous German "Flying Circus" by a year. Guttman's research effort is prodigious and readers are presented with a wealth of information on daily operations of the group and details on individual pilots. Unfortunately, Guttman's writing style and approach quickly falls into the rut of detailing who shot down what on a given day, but fails to provide either "the big picture" or other details about the unit that would give the reader a fuller appreciation of the contributions of this unit. Perhaps the greatest failing of this volume is the complete lack of analysis; the reader is provided with bare facts and little effort is made to interpret them. Nevertheless, "the Storks" is a good reference on the French fighter force in the First World War.
The volume consists of eight chapters that cover various operational periods in the history of GC12 in 1916-1918. Fourteen pages of color plates on individual aircraft add great value to the volume. The author provides one appendix (aces who flew in GC12) and a short bibliography. There are no maps in the volume and this makes it difficult to determine what parts of the front the unit was operating on at various periods in the war.
Two items that will strike most readers of this volume is the national diversity in GC12 pilots and the fact that 37% of the groups confirmed 'kills' were scored by only two pilots. Guttman details the Japanese (!) and Russian pilots who joined the group, as well as the numerous Americans. It strikes me as odd that France's premier fighter unit - which boasted France's two top aces - included so many foreigners in its ranks; unfortunately, this is one of many issues that the author never explains. In terms of aces, Georges Guynemer and René Fonck dominated the performance of the group much more than an ace like von Richtofen did in JG-1. Another item that I noted after reading the other volume on JG-1 in this series is that the French aviation industry seemed to do a better job in supplying well-built aircraft in quantity; the Nieuport and SPAD fighters were sound designs and well-built, unlike the often poorly-built Fokker DR-1 triplanes.
Unfortunately, there is just too much missing in this volume to make it fully useful. Also from obvious omissions like the lack of a map, the author fails to provide simple details like how many aircraft were in individual squadrons or the group as a whole. There is little of no mention of how pilots or replacements went to GC12, how maintenance was conducted in the group (how much was done at unit level and how much at higher level?), how victories were "confirmed" or how GC12 coordinated with other British and French aviation units. There is virtually no discussion of French aviation doctrine in this volume (remembering that the French air arm has not been well covered before) or how GC12 coordinated with the French ground forces. Indeed, after reading this volume I am not clear who GC12's higher headquarters was since the author tends to focus too much on individual fighter actions. Indeed, it is quickly apparent that the author is only intent about providing a tedious, blow-by-blow account of daily fighter actions - the result is great detail that is not connected into any coherent pattern. The author also avoids any attempt at analysis. I was struck by the fact that GC12 had only 286 confirmed kills in three years of war, which was significantly less than the 500+ kills claimed by Germany's JG-1 in less than two years of war. Why the great disparity? The author also should have made more effort to analyze the occasions when GC12 fought JG1 and determine how France's best compared against Germany's best.
Book Description
This is an authentic account of German infantry aces, common foot soldiers who were thrust into a blazing maelstrom of bloody horror the world had never seen. On the frozen Russian steppes, under the scorching African desert sun, and in the final desperate battles, they were outnumbered and outgunned and faced impossible odds. Here are the fascinating stories of the men who stared death in the face during some of the most brutal battles ever waged. A concluding chapter examines German infantry tactics.

Infantry Aces: The German Soldier in Combat in WWII (Stackpole Military History Series).......2006-11-15
Great insight to the hardships faced by the common soldier who sill went on to perform outstanding acts of bravery
Infantry Aces: The German Soldier in Combat in WWII (Stackpole Military History).......2006-11-12
Both my husband and my son are military history enthusiasts and I bought this book as a gift for them. It has turned out to be even better than I expected. My husband can't put it down and my son keeps asking him to read it to him.
My husband has read a lot of different military history books and he is very critical of most written works because they are not factual enough or don't contain enough interesting information. This book has actually been very interesting and informative to him and he has asked me to look into getting other books in this series.
I highly recommend it to anyone that is interested in WWII.
Excellent reading.......2005-07-07
This is an outstanding book describing the experience of eight first person accounts of German soldiers who earned their nation's highest award, their equivalent of the Medal of Honor, the Knight's Cross, and is highly recommended. What makes this book unique is that the accounts cover multiple years with campaigns spanning from 1939 to 1945.
There are very few US WW2 veterans that have a similar amount of experience. There are a handful of US veterans who survived through the campaigns and battles from 1943 to 1945 in the European theatre and fewer in the Pacific theatre from 1942-1945. The majority of our US forces fought in Europe from June 1944 until May 1945, not even one full year against a dwindling German Army. The US 82nd and 101st Airborne divisions fought major battles in Normandy, Holland, Ardennes forest. The 1st Infantry Division fought major battles in North Africa, Italy, Normandy, Hurtegen Forest, and Ardennes forest. The experience of these eight German soldiers who fought on multiple fronts for so many years is quite remarkable as they fought against armies that did not lose their combat strength throughout the years.
The Marines first fought their major battle on Guadalcanal in August 1942 and then a series of Storm Landings across the Pacific until August 1945. The Marines were pulled from the islands after each battle to refit and prepare for future landings. The fighting was extremely intense and deadly but not prolonged like the battles fought in Europe. In Europe the fighting flowed across hundreds of miles and lasted for over many months against an enemy that was able to reinforce their combat forces and employ effective tank and anti-armor weapons. The Japanese did not have effective tank or anti-tank weapons that could engage the M4 Sherman tank. This limited their ability to mount coordinated counter attacks against US forces of similar magnitude to those experienced by US forces in North Africa, Italy, Normandy, or the Ardennes.
Our Marines fought very deadly offensive battles against an isolated enemy on the islands, having been cut off by the US Navy. Our US soldiers fought mostly offensive battles and were placed in some limited defensive actions, aside from the Battle of the Bulge. The eight German soldiers in the book faced massed combined arms offensive and defensive battles in campaigns against the numerous Russian waves to the never ending US and British air and artillery bombardments.
Roger Donlon was the first soldier to be awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam. His book, Beyond Nam Dong, is good to read about one Medal of Honor recipient's experience before and life after the battle.
What makes this book unique is that it provides a chronological history of the first person experiences of those soldiers who fought in the many campaigns and earned their country's highest military award, sometimes for a second and third time and is not based on one specific battle.
If one also reads Panzer Aces 1 & 2, some of the events and persons involved will coincide with this book. Many history books provide a general overview, often a mere sentence in passing, of an engagement that was part of a larger battle. This book provides the details of the difficult fighting experienced by those who fought and survived.
Good Men, Wrong Side.......2005-03-04
Mr. Kurowski has used his experience as a reporter in the German army during World War II to write a series of books that tell the history of the war from the German individuals point of view.
This book is a set of eight mini-biographies of German Infantry soldiers. Most of them fought through the entire war and surprisingly most of them survived the war, few without wounds. These are not stories of high ranking officers, but of ordinary soldiers of rather low rank who did their job very, very well. They fought in all the theaters of war from freezing in Russia to burning up in Africa.
I am sure that there were men like these in all armies, but these men happened to be German. We can only be happey that they didn't have a whole lot more men like these.
Book Description
HOW THE LUFTWAFFE FIGHTER ACES ACHIEVED THEIR SUCCESS
The Luftwaffe's leading fighter aces outscored their Allied counterparts astonishingly during World War II--so much so that when the records of these pilots (the Jagdflieger) first became available after the war they were greeted with disbelief. A single ace with a hundred victories might have been credible, but one hundred six aces each recorded one hundred victories or more, and the top scorer claimed three hundred fifty-two. However, postwar research proved that German shoot-down confirmations were given only after rigorous checking.
To discover the secret of the Luftwaffe pilots' success, aviation historian Mike Spick examines the exploits of Nazi Germany's most famous pilots, focusing on the methods and tactics of individual aces, examining the importance of machinery, training, climate, numbers, and theater of war, and using firsthand accounts to put the reader in the pilot's seat. This book is easily the best possible guide to how the German aces achieved such amazing results in battle.

It is a very good book. I learned some interesting things, but I guess the subject is more deep. I found the book a little incomplete.
Informative and enjoyable.......2005-02-07
Excellent and detailed account of the Jagdflieger aces and the war which they fought in the skies over Europe. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to learn more about this incredible TRUE story.
ok book on the luftwaffe.......2003-06-17
I read this book a number of years ago. It gives a very general description of the jagdflieger in world war two. I re-read this book because I recently became interested in ww2 flight simulators. I was trying to gain some tactical insight. While the book does provide some insight, it falls short in this regard. Though a well reseached work with personal interviews from the legendary german aces: Hartmann, Rall ect. It does not break any new ground.
Customer Reviews:
A small gem of a volume.......2007-09-06
Although there are many books delaing with air combat stories, Mr Spick's old but excellent volume is a must-have for everyone interested in the ace producing virtues. "Situational awareness" is surely the most critical of them, as the author proves in many occasions and the book covers the whole age of aerial dogfights from the Great War to the '80s. There are many first hand accounts, many great stories and abundant information on tactics and technologies but, above all, Mr Spick's writing is the great advantage of this book. A nice addition to the library of every military aviation fan.
Good book about air combat.......2004-08-03
Not an in depth analysys of air combat maneuvers and energy management as Shaw does in his books, however a good book about the so called "Situational Awareness", in my opinion the most important ace factor.
Entertaining at times, but lacks depth.......1998-04-08
Although most of the stories here have been told before, it may prove handy to have them all in this one slim volume. It does start to delve into the details of several air campaigns, but I found myself wanting more. Readers of Overy's "Air War" and Shaw's "Fighter Combat" will find little new material here, other than some WWI anecdotes. Mr. Spick seems to conclude that it is not possible to define the "Ace Factor", which begs the question, "Why then write this book?"
Excellent book on the what separated "Ace" pilots from rest........1996-12-10
With so many books available on aces and air combat tactics,
Spick's focus is a remarkably fresh one. He identifys,
and discusses the rare human qualities that made a small
percentage of fighter pilots, "ace" pilots. This is achieved
via a historical look at many successful pilots in all of
history's air wars. From Bolcke to Cunningham, there's a
good balance between history, technique and tactics. A
good companion book to Robert Shaw's "Fighter Combat:
Tactics and Maneuvering," and a better read too.
Book Description
Air power in World War II was crucial for ultimate victory. It held up armies in the field, sapped war-making capacity at home and reduced naval forces to near impotence. Gaining air superiority was the task of the fighter and it was the fighters who determined the eventual outcome of the war. Many thousands of fighter pilots of many nations v British, American, Australian, Canadian, Polish and many more v flew, fought and died in Allied aircraft. A few became famous. About five percent of fighter pilots accounted for some forty percent of all air victories and these were the aces. Mike Spick, author of the excellent Luftwaffe Fighter Aces, examines in detail every major theatre of the air war, compares the aircraft and operational conditions, and highlights individual tactics and methods of the best of the aces. Twenty-five diagrams graphically illustrate some of the most successful combat tactics. With first-hand accounts putting the reader in the thick of the action, Allied Fighter Aces is an exciting, fast-paced read as well as a major source of reliable information for the air combat enthusiast.

Not as good as the Luftwaffe equivalent........2002-05-09
This is the second book in a series by prolific aviation author Mike Spick. It is written in the same format as the first and covers much the same ground but from the allied perspective. Unfortunately, it doesn't work quite as well. One of the problems faced here is the enormous scale of the subject. This is a much larger topic than the first book and I really think the Pacific conflict is worthy of a separate volume, perhaps covering both sides. I would also like to have seen a "Strike Rate" given for each pilot in the manner of his previous book, "Luftwaffe Fighter Aces", so that direct comparisons may be made. The author's personal writing style is starting to become a little irritating, too. It only happens occasionally but it is inappropriate and distracting. A not-quite-worthy companion to "Luftwaffe Fighter Aces", it is still a good read and will give the reader a good insight into the subject.
Strategy, not tactics and techiques.......1999-12-02
This is a book about how the Allied Air Forces fought as organizations. It is not an indepth study of the pilot's tactics and techniques.
Strategy, not tactics and techiques.......1999-12-02

Could have been better.......1999-10-24
I read this book after reading Spick's glorious Luftwaffe Fighter Aces. Certainly the Luftwaffe was a much better read. Infact, I believed Mike wrote this book in response to the Luftwaffe Fighter Aces. What"s wrong with the Allied Fighter Aces is that it lack the grace and splendour of the earlier book. I certainly believe that the author thoroughly enjoyed writing on the Luftwaffe aces and his enthusiasm are shown through out.
Very good source of airwar info.......1999-07-26
Reading about the WWII airwar in "The Triumph and the Glory" fired an interest in me in the aerial combat history of the war. So I checked around on Amazon and found this book and ordered it right away. Spick has done a great job, his writing appeals to laymen like myself but certainly deals with the topic at a deeper level that experts and enthusiasts must enjoy as well. A fine book, I would encourage anyone with an interest in military aviation or WWII to read it.
Book Description
This is the first full-length biography ever written on the life and death of the nineteen-year-old Werner Voss, who was a legend in his own lifetime and the youngest recipient of the Pour le Me'rite, Germany's highest award for bravery in WWI. At the time of his death he was considered by many, friend and foe alike, to be Germany's greatest ace and, had he lived, he would almost certainly have overtaken Manfred von Richthofen's victory total by early spring 1918.
Voss is perhaps best remembered for his outstanding courage, his audacity in the air and the prodigious number of victories he achieved before being killed in one of the most swash-buckling and famous dogfights of the Great War; a fight involving James McCudden and 56 Squadron RFC, the most successful Allied scout squadron.
Yet the life of Voss and the events of that fateful day in September are surrounded by mystery and uncertainty and even now aviation enthusiasts continue to ask questions about him almost on a daily basis.
Barry Diggens was determined to find out the truth and his book unearths and analyses every scrap of information concerning this extraordinary young man. His conclusions are sometimes controversial but his evidence persuasive and this study will be welcomed by, and be of great interest to, the aviation fraternity worldwide.
Includes an excellent photographic section.

Very good reading........2006-11-10
This book not only serves its purpose (examining the life of German ace Werner Voss) but serves as a good introductory book for anyone interested in lear something about World War I dofights and aces, because the author talks about a lot of aces, including Richthofen, Ball, Mannock, Collishaw, Lothar Richthofen, etc.
The photos (all in black and white, of course) are also stunning, with great restoration job upon them.
TEENAGE ACE.......2005-10-26
I GOT THIS BOOK AND I WAS VERY HAPPY WITH IT.FOR THE FIRST TIME ANYWHERE YOU CAN NOW FIND THE REAL STORY OF THE TEENAGE ACE WERNER VOSS.HE WAS THE BETTER PILOT THAN THE RED BARON SOME SAY AND EVEN THE BARON HIMSELF SAID HE WAS THE ONE TO WATCH.THIS BOOK TELLS THE STORY OF A GREAT KID TO HIS LAST BATTLE WITH THE 7 S.E.5A SCOUTS ON THAT SEPTEMBER EVENING.
A Must Read.......2004-02-09
First off, let me say this is a "Must Read" for anyone remotely interested in the aerial campaigns of WW1 and/or the career of Werner Voss. The subtitle of the book: "The Life and Final Combat of the German World War One Ace Werner Voss" neatly describes the organization of the book with 77 pages devoted to his life and wartime career prior to September 23, 1917, while the final 89 recount the climatic dogfight and its aftermath.
I must say that I was a bit disappointed with the depth of coverage dealing with his wartime career. The author explains that much family and archival material was lost during the Second World War and other than an examination of his relationship with von Richthofen, his personal and professional life remains indistinct. What we are left with is a valuable recounting of all the pertinent postings during his service career and thumbnail descriptions of his 48 aerial victories.
In the recounting of Voss' final Dogfight, where he fought nearly single handed against nine British aircraft, the author gives the reader a clear picture of this epic encounter as well doing some first rate detective work examining the numerous controversies surrounding the fight. The appendices which include the after-action reports of the particpants and a fine selection of photographs are a highlight of the book. This will be a valuable addition to every WW1 aviation bookshelf.

Sorely Lacking.......2006-05-24
This guide barely scratches the surface, of this game. The only thing it's really good for is just giving you the basics for each level. However, it does not cover all the variations of each level, nor does it give you any insight into how to locate the extras in each level, how to unlock each plane, or how to achieve S rankings on each level.
Not much contents worth the price.......2006-05-18
Frankly speaking, one of the reasons to buy so-called 'official guidebook' of a game is to read something not written or introduced elsewhere(i.e. some hidden stories, etc).
Although this book is easy to understand, basically 95% of its contents are information you can get from online game websites; the only 'looks-unique' information was background stories of enemy ace pilots. The only advantage may be some color photographs of game screen, but I wonder how much the photo can compensate the slipshodness of contents.
