Barbarossa Victims: Camera On 34

.

.

by Tomasz J. Kopanski.

Softcover (8.3×11.7 inches). 80 pages. 2025.

Subtitle: Luftwaffe Kills in the East Volume 1

The latest in the photobook series offers half-page and sometimes full-page photos of destroyed and sometimes captured Soviet planes in the summer of 1941. Modelers looking for unusual scenes for their aircraft diorama may be able to gain inspiration from the shredded planes.

One typo: Two captions (p44 and p45) are identical although the photos are different.

Aircraft include: Gloster Gladiator, I-5, I-15, I-15bis, I-153, I-16, I-16 UTI-4, MiG-1, MiG-3, and LaGG-3.

All totaled: 149 black and white photos of good to excellent sharpness.

Enjoyed it.
