In this distant theater many different aircraft types and their variants were assigned to a variety of bomber, reconnaissance, command and transport units which together formed the 4th Air Army. Unit insignia, camouflage and command markings varied considerably from unit to unit, giving a wide variety of color, heraldry and markings. The profiles, based on photos, Japanese documents, Allied intelligence reports and post-war wreck investigations, are accompanied by brief histories of each relevant unit and explanations of their role in the theater.\n\nThe author, Michael Claringbould, is world-renown for his expertise in respect to wartime Japanese aviation. These profiles accurately portray JAAF bombers and support aircraft during this fascinating and esoteric timeframe of the Pacific air war.\n\nTable of Contents\n\nIntroduction\nChapter 1 JAAF Bombers and Support Types in the South Pacific\nChapter 2 Technical Notes\nChapter 3 The 7th Hiko Sentai\nChapter 4 The 14th Hiko Sentai\nChapter 5 The 26th Hiko Sentai\nChapter 6 The 34th Hiko Sentai\nChapter 7 The 45th Hiko Sentai\nChapter 8 The 60th Hiko Sentai\nChapter 9 The 61st Hiko Sentai\nChapter 10 The 75th Hiko Sentai\nChapter 11 The 208th Hiko Sentai\nChapter 12 Headquarters and Command Units\nChapter 13 Reconnaissance Units\nChapter 14 Transport and Liaison Units\nSources\nIndex\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0648665992\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.0648665992.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Claringbould, Michael\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
