Messerschmitt Bf 110 - Bombsights over England

192The activities of Erprobungsgruppe 210 over southern England during the bitter fighting of summer 1940 are recorded here in depth. Formed on July 1, 1940 Erprobungsgruppe 210 was given the task of operationally testing the standard fighters on charge with the Luftwaffe in new and different roles. Their main role was the use of the Messerschmitt 109 and 110 as fighter-bombers, lacking both the level flight of the conventional bomber and the steep dive of the Stuka. The mode of attack was the shallow dive, using only the standard Revi gunsight as a bombsight to line-up the target. They were also the only unit in 1940 to operate the Messerschmitt Bf 110C-6, the version that carried a 30 mm. MG 101 Kanone in place of the standard 2x20 mm. Kanone. Information is provided here on Seilbomben, a weapon which the unit would have used to black-out the electricity network in the south-east of England had an invasion taken place in 1940. In filling a significant gap concerning Luftwaffe fighter-bomber raids over England during the Battle of Britain, and correcting the still-frequent inaccuracies which are to be seen in other written works concerning the unit, this book will appeal to the general reader, enthusiast and modeler alike. Illustrations: over 280 b/w and color photos, color aircraft profiles, 192 pages.
