Summary
"Here readers will discover the aeronautical advances that led to the P-51 Mustang and B-29 Superfortresses, both instrumental in ensuring the Allied victory. They will read how improved technology enabled radar-equipped night fighters to double their contacts with enemy aircraft. They will learn about the ill-fated Large Aerial Mine and Turbinlite system, both abortive efforts to create effective countermeasures against enemy bomber formations"--Front flap.
