"A History of IJN's Night-Fighter Units" 日本海軍夜間邀撃戦 - Library


The ultimate book on the IJNAF night fighters. Released in 2004 by "Dai Nippon Kaiga" and penned by the most prolific Japanese aviation author, Watanabe Yoji, this hard-back publication details the combat history of all the night fighter units of the IJNAF and is accompanied by hudrends of photos, some never published anywhere else. It is mostly a history book, without any aircraft details the modellers look for for their models but nevertheless the sheer amount of photos and material makes it worthwhile, even though it's all in Japanese with no English whatsoever.
A book that should not be missing in the library of Japanese aviation enthusiasts.
VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
